Establish how versions are assigned, bumped, and checked across the
five things that actually change for users: the product itself, the
Rhai SDK, the HTTP API, the database schema, and the inter-service
wire (reserved for cluster mode). Crates ship in lockstep — drift
between picloud-shared and picloud-manager-core is fiction since
they always release together — but surfaces are versioned and
checked at their natural boundaries.
* docs/versioning.md is the authoritative reference: what gets a
version, the per-surface compatibility rules, how each surface
bump cascades to the product version (loose pre-1.0, strict
post-1.0), and the five enforcement mechanisms (lockstep at
compile time, /version at runtime, golden SDK contract tests,
migration replay, CI guardrail).
* shared::version exposes four constants — PRODUCT_VERSION (from
CARGO_PKG_VERSION), SDK_VERSION ("1.0"), API_VERSION (1),
WIRE_VERSION (1). Scripts read SDK_VERSION as ctx.sdk_version
and can feature-detect against it.
* Workspace inheritance: `[workspace.package] version = "0.2.0"`
is the single point of truth; every crate uses
`version.workspace = true`. dashboard/package.json mirrors.
* Routes move to /api/v1/* — both control plane
(/api/v1/admin/*) and data plane (/api/v1/execute/{id}).
Picloud composes them via a single `/api/v{API_VERSION}` nest,
so the next major is a copy-paste-and-bump. Caddyfile (dev and
prod) routes /api/v1/* to picloud and 404s any other /api/*
so old clients fail loudly instead of getting the SPA shell.
Dashboard client + integration tests updated.
* /healthz remains a plain "ok" string (k8s probes); /version is
the new JSON endpoint returning every surface version in one
place — product, sdk, api, schema (from
manager-core::migrations::latest_version), wire.
* Reasonable bump rationale: API path changes are breaking by
definition, so 0.1.0 → 0.2.0 (pre-1.0 license to bump minor on
any breaking change). SDK starts at 1.0 because scripts depend
on it more strictly than the product depends on its internals;
we'd rather promise SDK stability early than pull the rug.
Verified live:
* /healthz → "ok" (plain text)
* /version → {product:"0.2.0",sdk:"1.0",api:1,schema:1,wire:1}
* /api/v1/admin/scripts → 200
* /api/admin/scripts → 404 with error JSON (sunset major)
* Script can read ctx.sdk_version → "1.0"
* All 14 integration tests pass against new paths
* 11 executor-core unit tests pass (added one for sdk_version
exposure with the major.minor format invariant)

CLAUDE.md
This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
Project
PiCloud is a self-hosted, event-driven serverless compute platform. Users upload Rhai scripts, get HTTP endpoints. Optimized for solo-dev / consumer hardware (single node MVP, multi-node cluster in v1.3+).
Authoritative design: serverless_cloud_blueprint.md. The blueprint is a living document — when architecture decisions are made in conversation that contradict it, treat the latest decision as truth and update the blueprint.
Three-Service Architecture
The platform splits into three logical services, each backed by a *-core library crate so the same logic runs in single-process MVP mode and split-process cluster mode:
| Service | Role | Library crate |
|---|---|---|
| Manager | Control plane: script CRUD, scheduling/cron, dashboard backend, config. Single-writer to Postgres. | manager-core |
| Orchestrator | Per-node ingress: receives HTTP (later SMTP, queue) events, resolves script, dispatches to local executor. Stateless. | orchestrator-core |
| Executor | Per-node compute: runs Rhai scripts in a sandboxed engine. Stateless. | executor-core |
In MVP, all three run in one process (picloud binary). In cluster mode, each runs as its own binary on each node, with one manager total and one orchestrator + executor per node.
Key boundary: the orchestrator never imports executor-core directly — it depends on an ExecutorClient trait. The local impl calls executor-core in-process; the remote impl is an HTTP client. Same pattern keeps cluster mode a swap, not a rewrite.
Path Scheme
Versioned API surfaces live under /api/v{N}/.... See docs/versioning.md for the full scheme.
/api/v1/admin/*— manager (control plane: script CRUD, logs, config)/api/v1/execute/{id}— orchestrator (data plane: invoke a script by ID)/exec/*— orchestrator (data plane: invoke scripts at custom paths, v1.1+). Unversioned — the contract is user-defined per script./healthz— liveness (string"ok")/version— versions of every compatibility surface (JSON)/and static assets — dashboard (SvelteKit static build, served by Caddy)
Caddy fronts everything. Same Caddyfile shape works for single-node and cluster — only upstream targets change.
Tech Stack
- Rust 1.92+ workspace, pinned via
rust-toolchain.toml - Axum for HTTP, Tokio async, sqlx for Postgres
- Rhai embedded scripting (in
executor-core) - PostgreSQL 15+ with
pgcryptoand (v1.1+)hstore - SvelteKit dashboard, static adapter, CodeMirror 6 for the script editor
- Caddy 2 reverse proxy (auto-HTTPS in prod)
- Docker Compose for dev and single-node prod

Working Rules
- Honor the three-service boundary. Don't reach across
*-corecrates. Iforchestrator-coreneeds something frommanager-core, define a trait insharedand inject the impl. executor-corehas no Postgres dependency. Data-plane services (kv, docs, users — v1.1+) come in via injectedServiceProvidertraits.- Database writes only from
manager-core.orchestrator-corereads scripts (cached);executor-coredoesn't touch the DB. - MVP builds only the
picloudall-in-one binary. The three split binaries exist as skeletons so the crate boundaries stay honest; flesh them out only when cluster mode is being implemented. - Trunk-based dev. See docs/git-workflow.md. No long-lived branches. Feature flags for incomplete work.
Out of MVP
Queue triggers, cron triggers, SMTP ingress, KV / docs / email / users / HTTP SDKs in scripts, interceptors, workflows, function-to-function invoke(), auth, multi-tenancy, secrets, metrics dashboard. All deferred to v1.1+ per the blueprint. Don't pre-build for them — but don't make decisions that close the door on them either.
