MechaCat02 7d3ced0776 docs(v1.1.9): CHANGELOG + HANDBACK.md
CHANGELOG.md: new v1.1.9 entry above v1.1.8 — covers queue::* SDK,
queue:receive trigger kind, dispatcher queue arm + visibility-timeout
reclaim, invoke() + invoke_async(), retry:: SDK (including the
retry::run rename deviation), admin HTTP endpoints, dashboard 0.15.0,
Services::new + Limits + Engine + register_all signature changes,
migrations 0034/0035, F1-F5 follow-ups, env vars + SDK schema bump.
No upgrade-order constraint (pure additive).

HANDBACK.md: replaces v1.1.8's at repo root. 12 sections per the brief:
  1. Scope coverage table — 21 line items, all 
  2. Queue dispatcher design (claim SQL, ack/nack/dead-letter, reclaim)
  3. invoke() re-entrancy (Engine self_weak, fresh SdkCallCx, cross-app guard, depth bound)
  4. retry::* (closure passing, sleep mechanics, clamping, jitter)
  5. Dashboard notes
  6. F1-F5 implementation per follow-up
  7. Deviations beyond the brief — 7 numbered:
     D1: retry::with → retry::run (both with/call are Rhai reserved)
     D2: Trait move skipped (Engine in scope, AST cache loss deferred)
     D3: Retry columns on parent only (avoids duplicating source of truth)
     D4: Limits::trigger_depth_max mirrored from TriggerConfig
     D5: One-consumer-per-queue via pg_advisory_xact_lock
     D6: invoke() exposed globally (not invoke::*)
     D7: invoke_async runs once
  8. Verification with LITERAL output (fmt + clippy + test totals)
  9. Open questions for the reviewer (4)
  10. Latent findings (lints surfaced + fixed; no carry-forward from main)
  11. Deferred items (nothing slipped; standing v1.2+ list)
  12. Known limitations (closures across invoke, in-process only, etc.)

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
