MechaCat02 be0c618672 feat(interceptors): ordered before-chains + cycle guard + ctx plumbing (§9.4 M1+M2)
M1: introduces a clone-cheap InterceptorCtx { interceptors, self_engine,
limits } threaded into every SDK register fn (kv/docs/files/queue/pubsub/http)
so the non-KV services carry the hook seam (unused until M7-M11); KvHandle
collapses its three fields into one ictx.

M2: replaces the nearest-only resolver with ordered before/after chains. The
trait becomes resolve(cx, service, op) -> InterceptorChain { before, after }
(migration 0074 adds a phase column + phase-aware unique indexes). The before
-chain runs ancestor->app (depth DESC) so a group compliance guard can't be
bypassed by a descendant; single-marker behavior is byte-identical to before.
An identity cycle guard (thread-local visited-set keyed by script_id) denies a
detected cycle, alongside the existing binary re-entrancy break. Fail-closed
verdict preserved (allow only on #{ allowed: true }; a Dangling entry or a
missing engine back-ref denies); app_id still derives from cx.app_id only.

after-chains resolve but stay unused until M3. Pinned by two new interceptor
journeys (ancestor->app chain ordering; self-referential no-recurse).

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
