pic scripts … --group
Phase 4-lite C2. Lets a group own scripts (templates inherited by descendant
apps), with the create/list/manage surface — but not yet the inherited
resolution (binding + runtime), which is C3.
Capabilities: add `GroupScriptsRead` (viewer+ on the group → script:read) and
`GroupScriptsWrite` (editor+ → script:write), mirroring the group-vars tier and
resolved through the same group-ancestor walk.
API:
* New `group_scripts_api`: `POST/GET /groups/{id}/scripts` — create a
group-owned endpoint script and list a group's own (non-inherited) rows.
Phase 4-lite is endpoint-only and self-contained: `kind=module` and any
`import` are rejected (group modules + the lexical resolver are Phase 4b).
Owner resolved first (slug-or-uuid); capability bound to the resolved id.
* The by-id `/scripts/{id}` get/update/delete/logs handlers are now
owner-polymorphic via a `script_cap` helper: app-owned scripts gate on
`App*` exactly as before; group-owned on `GroupScripts*`. This is what
makes `deploy --group` idempotent (update reuses the by-id PUT) and lets a
group script be deleted by id. (C1 had these fail closed for groups.)
Repo: `list_for_group(group_id)` (the group's own rows).
CLI: `pic scripts ls --group <g>`, `pic scripts deploy --group <g>` (create or
update by name; `--app`/`--group` are mutually exclusive, exactly one
required). `pic scripts delete <id>` already works for group scripts via the
owner-polymorphic by-id route.
Live-validated against the dev DB: create → update (v2 via the by-id PUT) →
list → delete, plus module rejection and the polymorphic row shape
(`app_id NULL`, `group_id` set). Group scripts still can't be routed/triggered
or invoked — that lands in C3.

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
