Remediation of the single-app reconcile foundation after two independent review passes. No new feature surface — closes correctness, parity, and safety gaps in pull/plan/apply/prune. apply engine (manager-core): - validate_bundle reached parity with the interactive trigger API: reject an empty kv/docs/files collection_glob and a malformed pubsub topic_pattern (previously written and silently never matched), and lift the queue visibility floor to MIN_QUEUE_VISIBILITY_TIMEOUT_SECS (30) — apply had accepted a [5,29] value the dashboard refuses. Per-kind checks extracted into a pure, unit-tested validate_trigger_shape. - An omitted script `description` now means "leave as-is" (matching the other optional fields and the function's own documented contract) instead of clearing the stored value. - Doc fixes: drop stale "next milestone" notes; record the one deliberate plan/apply divergence (set-but-empty secret); document delete_route_tx as intentionally idempotent for reconcile. CLI: - Gate destructive `apply --prune` behind confirmation: interactive y/N, or `--yes` for CI; a non-interactive prune without `--yes` refuses rather than silently deleting. Journey tests pass `--yes`; a new test proves the gate refuses and deletes nothing. - Harden pull's filename safety: reject all control characters and the Unicode bidi-override / zero-width chars used for terminal/filename spoofing, and cap length at 200 bytes (NAME_MAX headroom). Tested: manager-core lib (incl. queue-floor + sparse-description parity) + CLI bins + 9 project-tool journeys green; clippy -D warnings clean.

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
