## Common questions

### Does the Kanzi Docker container include lexigram-cli?

Yes. The container includes lexigram-cli to set up Kanzi with an Amazon Developer Account and deploy the skill.

### Can I self-host the HTTPS proxy for Koko?

Yes. The alt_proxy variable lets you self-host the proxy server instead of relying on the default one.

### What database does Koko need for music session tracking?

Koko uses MongoDB because Alexa does not save session data between music commands. You must set mongodb_uri and accept_music_warning in the configuration.

### How are Kodi credentials handled in Koko?

The Kodi username and password are stored in plaintext in the database and transferred over the internet to the HTTPS proxy.
