# Which Problems Are Solved - The **Harden secrets** section of the Docker Compose guide lists commands for the masterkey and the two database passwords, but never mentions the **initial admin user password**. - Setting `ZITADEL_FIRSTINSTANCE_ORG_HUMAN_PASSWORD` to a value that does not meet the default password complexity policy fails the initial setup with a `_password_complexity_model` error, and the requirements were not documented anywhere near the other secrets. # How the Problems Are Solved - Adds a short note directly below the secret-generation commands documenting the initial admin password: the default (`Password1!` / `zitadel-admin@zitadel.localhost`), how to override it via `ZITADEL_FIRSTINSTANCE_ORG_HUMAN_PASSWORD`, and the default complexity requirements (min 8 chars, upper + lower + number + symbol). - Links to the [Password Complexity](/guides/manage/console/default-settings#password-complexity) policy docs and notes that the variable only applies during initial setup. # Additional Changes None. # Additional Context - Reported by a self-hosting user (TrueNAS + Ansible) who hit repeated setup errors because the initial admin password complexity requirement was not documented alongside the masterkey/DB password commands.
