Two containers, because that is what upstream runs (docker-compose.yml:6,13): the app image under supervisord, plus SurrealDB. The `v1-latest-single` tag is not in play — it bundles its own database, is deprecated upstream, and would give the host a second hidden DB. Both images are digest-pinned with Pull=never and a documented one-time pull, the frank-dragoon posture: a Quadlet on :latest re-resolves on the first restart after an unrelated daemon-reload, and the failure is silent. Port map paid for by what is already on the host: seerr holds 127.0.0.1:5055 (since 2026-10-14, live `ss -ltn` agrees), so the API leaves on 5056 and the env file has to set API_URL to match, because the frontend derives the API URL from the window origin when it is unset. 8502 publishes on 0.0.0.0 — the service carries its own password and the episode-audio route is unauthenticated. 8000 is published nowhere, where upstream exposes it on loopback with root credentials. The app joins dankclaw_default first and the private systemd-open-notebook second: it reaches the published fleet endpoints through the former (host.containers.internal, the arrangement Prometheus is proven against) and finds its database by container name through the latter. Generated --network flags keep file order, so the tunable file is listed before the host secret file in both units — podman applies last-match-wins. No UserMapping: the app runs as root in its namespace (no USER in the Dockerfile) and writes only paths owned by that root. Exec= carries no database credential — `exec start --user --pass` puts it in world-readable argv; the image's own entrypoint passes it on stdin, so only the container env holds it.

AI Disclosures:
- Slop rating: 2/5 - Actively using, actively de-slopping, repository mostly human owned, lacks formal process.
- Completeness: Unfinished, planning planned, no plan yet
- Datacenter model/spend: Less than $20 of Deepseek 4.1 Flash and GLM-5.3-Flash
- Local model: Qwen 3.8 Flash Next
slop rating of 2 or lower indicates human reading is a worthwhile exercise, and that Frank has read the code and knows the architecture.
slop rating of 2 indicates that while this project is human owned, no human contribution process exists and/or release is agentically driven.
The single repository for the two homelab servers: the Podman container stacks and the LLM inference fleet. One repo, one checkout per host, one deploy script.
2026-08-22: the former
vllmScriptsrepository (LLM fleet) is merged into this repo with its full git history. See AGENTS.md for the merge note.

Deployment
See serverAppConfigs-docs/Architecture/Deployment Flow.md
and serverAppConfigs-docs/LLM/deployment.md. Run
./scripts/deploy.sh <dankclaw|dankserver> after committing changes. It
plans and deploys only the changed services. Use --service NAME for an
explicit single-service retry; inference is restarted only when its own files
(or the shared chat template) changed.
Knowledge Base
The serverAppConfigs-docs/ directory is an Obsidian vault. Start at
serverAppConfigs-docs/index.md. The LLM fleet knowledge base lives at
serverAppConfigs-docs/LLM/index.md.
Testing
Run ./tests/run.sh before every push. See
serverAppConfigs-docs/Architecture/Testing Policy.md.
