Frank 3d4604c19f Stand up open-webui on dankclaw (quadlet, boot-persistent)
Replace the dead dankserver open-webui (bare container, :3000, pointed at a
dead :9090 backend) with a boot-persistent quadlet on dankclaw:
- CPU image (:main); dankclaw is CPU-only, so the :cuda image is wasted.
- Isolated on slirp4netns; publishes 3005 (3000 is Gitea's HTTP port).
- Default LLM backend is the local vLLM on 52625 (frank-default-large).
- Data persists under /home/dank/Containers/open-webui/data.
- Caddy route now proxies to the published LAN port (the container is not on
  Caddy's network).

Also corrects the model/port mapping in the docs: the live state (verified
2026-08-19) is frank-default-large on vLLM :52625 (dankclaw) and
frank-default-small on llama.cpp :7770 (dankserver) — the reverse of the
2026-08-17 note.

Dankclaw Stack

Dankclaw (192.168.0.143) runs the AI, search, and development stack. It hosts the vLLM inference endpoint (frank-default-large, :52625, from the vllmScripts repo), the agent tools, the privacy search, and the observability stack. The llama.cpp endpoint (frank-default-small, :7770) runs on Dankserver (192.168.0.235).

The last two rows are bare-metal systemd services, not containers. The vllmScripts repository owns their scripts and knowledge base. The live mapping (verified 2026-08-19) is the reverse of the 2026-08-17 note: frank-default-large runs vLLM on Dankclaw; frank-default-small runs llama.cpp FastMTP on Dankserver.

Boot Persistence

The Gitea trio, the SearXNG trio (gluetun, searxng, valkey), and open-webui run as quadlet units, so they start at boot. User linger is on. ComfyUI runs as a systemd unit around a bare process. The remaining services in the table are defined in compose.yaml and are not yet boot-persistent.

Deploy the SearXNG trio with scripts/deploy-searxng-quadlet.sh dankclaw and open-webui with scripts/deploy-open-webui-quadlet.sh dankclaw. The Gitea units install to ~/.config/containers/systemd/ (see Gitea).

Routing Rules

  • SearXNG outbound traffic exits through the Gluetun VPN container.
  • Every other service uses the normal LAN route.
  • The homepage lists all services with status.
