 ```bash

+Minimal dependencies - use with external docling-serve for document processing:
 
 ```bash

+docker pull ghcr.io/ggozad/haiku.rag-slim:latest
 ```
 
-This starts the MCP server on port 8001, with data persisted to `./data`.
+See `examples/docker/docker-compose.yml` for a complete setup with docling-serve.

 # haiku.rag Docker Compose Example
 
-Run haiku.rag with file monitoring and MCP server.
+Run haiku.rag with docling-serve for remote document processing, file monitoring, and MCP server.
+
+## Architecture
+
+This example demonstrates remote processing with two services:
+
+- **docling-serve** - Document conversion and chunking service
+- **haiku-rag** - MCP server and file monitoring (using slim image)
+
+This setup showcases the minimal haiku.rag-slim image combined with external document processing, ideal for production deployments.

 ## Ports
 
+- `5001` - docling-serve API (with UI enabled)

 ## Configuration
 
-Edit `haiku.rag.yaml` to configure providers, embeddings, and other settings. See the [Configuration documentation](https://ggozad.github.io/haiku.rag/configuration/) for all options.
+The setup uses `haiku.rag-slim` image configured to use docling-serve for document processing:
