The docker-compose.yml comment and environment-variables docs implied that OLLAMA_BASE_URL was exclusively for Ollama. This caused confusion for users wanting to use other OpenAI-compatible local inference servers (vLLM, LM Studio, etc.) — they didn't know whether or how to adapt the Docker compose setup. Add comments to docker-compose.yml and update environment-variables.md to clarify that: - OLLAMA_BASE_URL can point to any Ollama-API-compatible server, not just Ollama itself (e.g. vLLM in Ollama mode, LM Studio) - The variable can be removed when not using local Ollama-compatible models - For non-Ollama OpenAI-compatible APIs, custom model providers should be used instead Fixes plandex-ai#321

Problem
The
docker-compose.ymlandenvironment-variables.mddocumentation implied thatOLLAMA_BASE_URLis exclusively for Ollama, causing confusion for users who want to use other local inference servers like vLLM. The question "Plandex Docker compose is Ollama only?" comes from this ambiguity.Solution
