The Queues tab at /admin/apps/default/queues was returning "Cannot parse `app_id` with value `default`: UUID parsing failed". 27 admin endpoints across 6 files used strict `Path<AppId>` instead of the canonical `Path<String>` + `resolve_app()` pattern from app_repo.rs:34. Working endpoints (apps, app_members, users_admin) all use the lenient pattern; this commit brings the remaining 6 files into line: - queues_api.rs — 2 handlers - files_api.rs — 2 handlers - secrets_api.rs — 3 handlers - topics_api.rs — 4 handlers - dead_letters_api.rs — 5 handlers - triggers_api.rs — 10 handlers The handler bodies (authz, repo calls) are unchanged; only the path extractor and the per-file `ensure_app_exists` helper (now renamed `resolve_app`) move. Lib tests updated to pass `.to_string()` at the call site (Path now takes String, not AppId). email_inbound_api.rs deliberately stays strict-UUID — it's a public webhook receiver consumed by external providers, not by the slug-based dashboard. Adds Playwright spec `dashboard/tests/e2e/navigation/tabs.spec.ts` covering every per-app tab (queues, files, dead-letters, users, invitations, plus the main page hosting triggers/secrets/topics) with a negative assertion against the "Cannot parse" error text plus a focused regression test for the original queues report.

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
