A project's root manifest can mark environments confirm-required; applying to
one needs an explicit `pic apply --dir --env <e> --approve <e>` (a blanket
`--yes` does NOT cover it), the act is admin-gated and audited, and the policy
folds into the bound-plan token. The last unbuilt piece of the project-tool
track (§4.2/§6).
- manifest: `[project]` block → `ManifestProject { environments[{name,confirm}] }`,
valid only on the tree's ROOT manifest (rejected elsewhere by build_tree).
- discover: build_tree emits `project` into the bundle from the root manifest.
- apply_service: `TreeBundle.project` + `ProjectPolicy`; policy folds into the
state_token (a policy edit between plan and apply trips StateMoved); plan
surfaces `approvals_required`; new `ApplyError::ApprovalRequired` → 409.
- apply_api: `enforce_env_approval` (after authz_tree) — refuses a gated env
not in `approved_envs`, and on approval requires admin (AppAdmin/GroupAdmin)
on every declared node + audits. The server re-derives the policy from the
bundle (CLI check is convenience; server is authoritative).
- CLI: `--approve <env>` (repeatable); `resolve_approvals` refuses a gated env
non-interactively, prompts on a TTY (retype the env name); plan renders gated
envs. Single-node `apply --file --env <e>` REFUSES a confirm-required env
(can't carry the admin-gated approval) and directs to `--dir` — closing the
bypass found in review rather than silently skipping the gate.
- approval journey + manifest/ProjectPolicy unit tests. No migration (policy
lives in the manifest, like takeover/blast-radius).
- doc §11 Phase 5 + §12: approval gating shipped; gate is a `--dir` feature.

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
