Closes the §9.4 track:
- set_if (compare-and-swap), per-app and shared, now runs the same (kv, set)
before/after interceptor as set — otherwise CAS was a silent bypass of a set
policy. The before-hook can transform the new value; the after-hook sees the
swapped bool.
- read-only pic interceptors ls --app|--group: app shows the RESOLVED chain
(every marker guarding its writes, nearest-owner-wins), group its own markers.
New apply_service::interceptor_report + InterceptorInfo, /apps|groups/{id}/
interceptors routes (AppRead/GroupScriptsRead), client + cmd mirroring
extension-points.
CLAUDE.md updated: §9.4 service interceptors are now COMPLETE (M1-M12).
Pinned by a journey: set_if of a guarded key is denied while a free key swaps,
and interceptors ls lists the kv/set guard (12 interceptor journeys green).

PiCloud
A lightweight, self-hosted, event-driven serverless compute platform. Upload a Rhai script, get an HTTP endpoint. Designed to run on a single modest server with no idle CPU cost, and to scale out to a small cluster when you need it.
Status: Phase 1 — MVP scaffolding in progress.
The authoritative design lives in
serverless_cloud_blueprint.md.
Why
Existing serverless platforms are either cloud-locked, heavyweight, or both. PiCloud aims for the opposite end of the spectrum: one binary, one database, one reverse proxy — running on hardware you already own.
Architecture (one paragraph)
PiCloud splits into three logical services — manager (control plane: scripts, schedules, dashboard), orchestrator (per-node event ingress and dispatch), and executor (per-node Rhai sandbox) — each backed by a *-core Rust library. In MVP they run in a single process; in cluster mode they run as three binaries with one manager and one orchestrator + executor per node. Caddy fronts everything; PostgreSQL is the single source of truth.
See CLAUDE.md for working notes and serverless_cloud_blueprint.md for the full design.
Quick Start
Coming as scaffolding lands. For now:
# Rust toolchain (pinned via rust-toolchain.toml)
cargo check --workspace
# Run the all-in-one MVP binary (once main.rs is wired up)
cargo run -p picloud
