* admin_user_repo: surface instance_role + email on AdminUserRow / Credentials; create() now takes instance_role; add update_instance_role, list_active_owners, count_other_active_owners. * admin_users_api: DTO + create/patch accept instance_role (defaults to Admin on create — only env-var bootstrap defaults to Owner). PATCH and DELETE enforce the last-owner guard alongside the existing last-active-admin guard. * app_members_repo: new — implements AuthzRepo::membership via the app_members table plus upsert/remove/list_for_user/list_for_app. * api_key_repo: new — create / find_active_by_prefix / touch_last_used / list_for_user / get / delete_by_id_and_user / expire_all_for_user. Separates ApiKeyRow (no hash) from ApiKeyVerification (hash, for the middleware verifier) so handlers can't leak the hash. * auth_bootstrap + picloud tests: pass Owner on the bootstrap seed and on the test admin seed respectively; in-memory test repo implements the new trait methods.

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
