- Move the manifest `extension_points` from a top-level key to an `[app]`/ `[group]` node key (`ManifestApp`/`ManifestGroup` + a `Manifest::extension_points()` accessor). A bare top-level array placed after the node header was silently re-nested by TOML into that table and dropped; as a node key it parses unambiguously wherever it sits. build_bundle/pull/init updated. - Journeys (live server + Postgres): a group default body resolves for an inheriting app; the app provides its own module and OVERRIDES the EP (the inverse of the Phase 4b sealed import); `extension-points ls` shows the provider; a body-less EP with no provider fails `pic plan`. - Re-bless the schema snapshot (new `extension_points` table). - Docs: §5.5 marked complete (extension points ✅) + CLAUDE.md current-focus.

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
