 ### Limits
 
-You can configure up to **4 named ports** per environment.
+Port limits depend on whether ports are proxied (default) or non-proxied:
+
+- **Proxied ports** (default): up to **10** per environment. These share a single internal port slot via multiplexing.
+- **Non-proxied ports** (`proxied: false`): up to **1** per environment. Each non-proxied port consumes a dedicated port slot.
 
 ### Initial Path
 
@@ -189,6 +196,64 @@ Invalid examples:
 - **Admin panels**: Serve an admin interface on `admin.localhost:3000` while the main app runs on the root domain
 - **Subdomain APIs**: Frameworks like Rails can use `api.localhost:3000` to route API requests to a separate controller namespace
 
+### Public Ports (Unauthenticated)
+
+By default, all preview URLs require authentication -- visitors must be signed in to your Roo Code Cloud organization to access them. Setting `unauthenticated: true` on a port disables this auth check while keeping the proxy layer intact.
+
+```yaml
+ports:
+  - name: WEB
+    port: 3000
+  - name: API
+    port: 3001
+    unauthenticated: true
+  - name: WEBHOOK
+    port: 3002
+    unauthenticated: true
+```
+
+Use `unauthenticated: true` when you need:
+
+- **API endpoints** that your frontend or external clients call directly (the auth proxy would otherwise block non-browser requests)
+- **Webhook receivers** that need to accept requests from external services (e.g., Stripe, GitHub)
+- **Public-facing endpoints** like documentation sites or landing pages
+- **Health checks** or status pages accessed by monitoring tools
+
+The port still goes through the proxy, so it benefits from HTTPS termination and domain routing. Only the authentication requirement is removed.
+
+### Direct Port Access (Non-Proxied)
+
+By default, all ports are proxied through an authentication layer that validates requests before forwarding them to your application. Setting `proxied: false` bypasses this proxy entirely and exposes the port directly on the sandbox domain.
+
+:::tip[Try `unauthenticated: true` first]
+If you just need to skip authentication (e.g., for a public-facing endpoint or webhook), use `unauthenticated: true` instead. It keeps the proxy in place while disabling the auth check, and doesn't count against the stricter non-proxied port limit. Only reach for `proxied: false` when the proxy itself is the problem.
+:::
+
+```yaml
+ports:
+  - name: WEB
+    port: 3000
+  - name: METRICS
+    port: 9090
+    proxied: false
+```
+
+Use `proxied: false` only when the proxy layer itself is incompatible with your use case:
+
+- **WebSocket or streaming connections** that are disrupted by the proxy intermediary
+- **Services with custom connection handling** that conflict with the proxy's request processing
+
+:::warning[Warning]
+When `proxied` is `false`, the port is **completely exposed without authentication**, regardless of the `unauthenticated` setting. Non-proxied ports also count against a stricter limit (1 per environment vs. 10 for proxied ports). Only use this as a last resort when other options don't work.
+:::
+
+The `ROO_<NAME>_HOST` environment variable for a non-proxied port points to the direct sandbox domain instead of the preview proxy URL. Your application code doesn't need to change -- just use the injected variable as usual:
+
+```typescript
+// Works the same whether the port is proxied or not
+const metricsUrl = process.env.ROO_METRICS_HOST || 'http://localhost:9090';
+```
+
 ## Using Environment Variables in Your Code
 
 Use the `ROO_<NAME>_HOST` variables instead of hardcoded URLs so your services can find each other in both preview and local environments:
