The per-env approval gate (`[project.environments]`, `confirm = true`) was
client-side only — the policy was `#[serde(skip_serializing)]`, so a patched or
older CLI applying to a confirm-required env bypassed it entirely. This makes
the gate server-enforced, admin-gated, and audited (the deferred §4.2 piece).
- Wire: `ProjectDecl` gains `environments` (the CLI stops skip_serializing it and
sends the selected `env` + the `--approve` set on the apply request). The
server RE-DERIVES the gate from the request (`env_gate_check`): a
confirm-required env not in `approved_envs` → 409 `ApprovalRequired`.
- Admin gate: an approved override additionally requires `AppAdmin`/`GroupAdmin`
on EVERY declared node — a step up from the editor write caps an ordinary
apply needs (reusing the admin caps per §4.2) — and emits a `tracing::info!`
audit line. Enforced on all three handlers (single app, single group, tree);
the check runs before any tx, so a denial (403) precedes any mutation.
- Token: the env policy folds into the TREE bound-plan token (a policy edit
between plan and apply trips StateMoved). The single-node token is left
unchanged (a bare live-state hash), so plan/apply still match without threading
a project into it.
- CLI: single-node `apply`/`plan` now resolve the GOVERNING project (own block
else nearest ancestor's) so a leaf apply carries the root's policy; `plan`
surfaces `approvals_required`. Client-side `require_env_approval` fast-fail
kept as UX.
Adapts the earlier feat/ownership-and-approval M5 (654e387) to main's DTOs; main
addresses tree group nodes by slug only, so the admin loop mirrors authz_tree
(app: resolve_app_id fail-closed; group: get_by_slug, skip to-create).
Threat-model note (honest scope, in the doc + code comments): this closes the
patched/older-CLI bypass and admin-gates + audits the override, but is NOT a
hermetic boundary against a hand-crafted request that OMITS the policy — the
policy is applier-supplied, not persisted server state. Full closure (persist a
`project_environments` source of truth + a server-determined env) is deferred.
Review (adversarial pass): fixed a MEDIUM (single-node `plan` didn't resolve the
governing project, so a leaf plan under-reported the gate `apply` enforces) and a
LOW (duplicate clippy attr); corrected overstated "can't bypass" wording.
Tests: ProjectDecl gate unit test; env_approval journeys
`server_enforces_the_gate_against_a_non_stock_client` (raw request → 409 without
approval, admin-approved → 200) and `approving_a_gated_apply_requires_admin`
(editor + --approve → 403). 417 lib tests + 33 CLI journeys + workspace clippy
-D warnings + fmt clean. No migration.

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
