+## Air-Gapped and Offline Deployments
+
+For customers deploying Coder in air-gapped or network-restricted environments without access to `registry.coder.com`, there are several approaches to use registry modules:
+
+### Option 1: Local Git Repository (Recommended)
+
+The most common approach is to mirror registry modules in an internal Git repository:
+
+1. **Download modules** from [registry.coder.com](https://registry.coder.com) while connected to the internet
+2. **Store modules** in your internal Git repository with the same directory structure:
+   ```
+   internal-registry/
+   ├── modules/
+   │   ├── code-server/
+   │   ├── cursor/
+   │   └── vscode-web/
+   └── templates/
+   ```
+3. **Reference modules** using Git source addresses in your templates:
+   ```tf
+   module "code_server" {
+     source   = "git::https://your-internal-git.com/coder-modules.git//modules/code-server"
+     version  = "1.0.19" # Use Git tags for versioning
+     agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
+   }
+   ```
+
+### Option 2: Custom Terraform Registry
+
+Set up a private Terraform registry mirror:
+
+1. **Configure a private registry** (such as Terraform Enterprise or Artifactory)
+2. **Mirror modules** from the public registry to your private registry
+3. **Update templates** to use custom source addresses:
+   ```tf
+   module "code_server" {
+     source   = "your-registry.com/coder/code-server/coder"
+     version  = "1.0.19"
+     agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
+   }
+   ```
+4. **Configure `.tfrc`** file to point Terraform to your private registry
+
+### Option 3: Vendored Modules
+
+Include modules directly in your template repositories:
+
+1. **Download modules** and include them in your template repository
+2. **Reference with relative paths**:
+   ```tf
+   module "code_server" {
+     source   = "./modules/code-server"
+     agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
+   }
+   ```
+
+### Air-Gapped Requirements
+
+When deploying in air-gapped environments, ensure:
+
+- **Terraform binary** is included in PATH (cannot download from releases.hashicorp.com)
+- **Custom source addresses** are configured for all external dependencies
+- **Telemetry and update checks** are disabled:
+  ```bash
+  coder server --telemetry=false --update-check=false
+  ```
+- **External database** is configured (cannot download PostgreSQL from repo1.maven.org)
+
+### Module Offline Support
+
+Many registry modules support offline operation:
+
+```tf
+module "code_server" {
+  source   = "registry.coder.com/coder/code-server/coder"
+  version  = "1.0.19"
+  agent_id = coder_agent.example.id
+  offline  = true # Prevents downloading from external sources
+}
+```
+
+Check individual module documentation for offline-specific configuration options.

 The easiest way to discover new modules and templates is by visiting [the official Coder Registry website](https://registry.coder.com/). The website is a full mirror of the Coder Registry repo, and it is where .tar versions of the various resources can be downloaded from, for use within your Coder deployment.

 Note that while Coder has a baseline set of requirements for allowing an external PR to be published, Coder cannot vouch for the validity or functionality of a resource until that resource has been flagged with the `verified` status. [All modules under the Coder namespace](https://github.com/coder/registry/tree/main/registry/coder) are automatically verified.

+
+For air-gapped environments, reference modules from internal Git repositories:
+
+```tf
+module "code_server" {
+  source   = "git::https://internal-git.company.com/coder-modules.git//modules/code-server?ref=v1.0.19"

+Use a private Terraform registry for air-gapped deployments:
