#home-lab — Public Fediverse posts

does anyone have experience selfhosting #Appflowy ? Is it a good and stable Knowledge Base experience? :D

I have a confession to make, I haven't upgraded my #K3S in four years 🙈
At first, I just didn't think about it, and eventually I got worried that I might break something during the upgrade, for example, because of unmigrated #k8s APIs.
Since I couldn’t keep going like that, I had my #Hermes #AI #Agent create an upgrade plan that takes all breaking changes into account.
I’m currently having the agent work through this plan, and I have to say, it’s working surprisingly well.

#homelab #devops

For several days now my DSL Internet at home is broken (because I moved the cabinet?), so my #homelab and its web infrastructure is unavailable - even locally because of CSRF and https annoyances. 🙄

Single point of failure, huh...

At least anything :gitannex: #gitAnnex is reliable as ever - that's what it's built for: reliably moving files between machines even if not all of them are connected. Thanks @joeyh ❤️

Deploy Codex. Deploy Claude Code. Then let them call each other. ☎️

I've been building Codex Orchestrator: an open-source, self-hosted management and collaboration layer for coding agents across your machines.

Not just “keep my config in sync.” Think easy deployment, shared project context, agent-to-agent calls and chaired conferences — with you still in control.

🚀 One command per host. Either engine. Or both.

Set up the orchestrator with the guided Docker installer: bin/install.sh. It handles secrets, TLS, the database, the dashboard and readiness checks, and can resume an interrupted install.

Then register a machine, choose Codex, Claude Code or both, and run the one-time installer command from your dashboard. It installs the selected CLIs and their managed wrappers, including Node.js/npm preparation when Claude needs it.

After that, launch with cdx or clx. Credentials, configuration and agent instructions are synced for you. No repeating the same setup dance on every dev box.

☎️ #call — connect two agents, not two clipboards.

In one agent session: #call sender
In the other: #call receiver <pin>

A short-lived, single-use four-digit PIN pairs the sessions. Codex ↔ Claude, Codex ↔ Codex, Claude ↔ Claude.

Use it to ask a second agent for a review, compare findings or coordinate a handoff. You carry the PIN between terminals; the agents exchange the messages. Calls have a turn budget and a deadline, because an endless “thanks!” / “you're welcome!” loop is not productive collaboration.

🗣️ #conference — give your agents a meeting room.

Start with #conference chair API review. Invite peers by address or let them join with the room PIN.

One agent chairs the discussion, opens rounds, dispatches tasks and gathers reports. Participants answer the chair and return to listening. Eligible idle hosts can be brought in through their relays, too.

For example: ask a Codex agent to chair an API review, bring in Claude to challenge the design, and assign another agent the test review. Different machines, different engines, one coordinated discussion.

Rooms have per-member message budgets, deadlines and graceful adjournment. Yes, I gave AI agents meetings. At least these come with an enforced ending.

📂 Projects — context that survives the terminal.

Give your agents a shared workspace for project notes, todos, files, feedback and durable memories. Record decisions and their reasons, then let the next session pick them up instead of making you explain everything again.

The Project Board adds cards with explicit claims: see who is working on what, move work through its stages, and reclaim stale claims when a session ends or its lease expires.

The built-in CoCo skill teaches agents how to discover projects, load their context, catch up on changes and record their work through MCP.

🔄 Your setup, consistently delivered.

Manage skills and versioned AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md instructions centrally. Codex reads fleet skills through MCP; Claude receives them in its native skill directories.

Set fleet defaults, override individual hosts, pin CLI versions or enable managed updates. Keep host scratch notes, project memory and fleet-wide reference material in separate scopes.

🛠️ The operational bits are there, too.

One dashboard for hosts, engine coverage, versions, sync health and usage, with ChatGPT quota visibility and warnings. Encrypted auth storage, per-host keys, signed wrapper configs, credential cleanup for hosts marked insecure, and a fleet-wide API kill switch.

There are also OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible API endpoints for integrating other tools. Collaboration is opt-in, not something silently switched on during installation.

This is for developers, self-hosters, homelab tinkerers and DevOps folks running coding agents across laptops, workstations, VMs or remote dev boxes — especially anyone tired of being the deployment script AND the message relay.

The orchestrator is self-hosted; Codex and Claude still use their respective providers.

Give it a spin. Open an issue, tell me what feels awkward, or bring a PR. I'd love feedback from people putting it to work.

And yes: GitHub stars make my day. ⭐ Boosts are very welcome, too.

My little test GPT-2(ish) model, "alan", I finished training a few hours ago is either really, really dumb, or quite sassy. In reality it's actually a little dumb, but we love him just the same. (write up coming later in the week if you're curious)

Wow crazy.

So I had a drive die in my NAS. Not to bad been spinning since May 2019. Replacement 8 TB - WD Red drive $around $375 - $450 depending on vendor. Crazy thing last November got one for $195. Crazy stupid inflation!!

I had a drive and it has been swapped. It's rebuilding the RAID volume now.

Very productive #homelab day today:
- installed and configured https://miniflux.app as an experimental feedreader
- enabled fluentbit on my container hosts and many of the app containers, linking them with VictoriaLogs
- still digging into why my Prometheus container doesn't consistently restart

Why, oh why, didn't I get a standalone device for #opnsense sooner? It's really overpowered for my needs but that's sort of the point. Now I can stick my #iot devices into their own VLAN. The older dual NIC FW2B from #Protectli is more powerful than even the most expensive consumer networking device I've ever owned. The experience with #freebsd has been interesting as well.

Split horizon DNS is enabling me to leverage #letsencrypt for internal hosts, though I still spun up my own #pki.

If not for #ramageddon, I'd say there's never been a better time to build a #homelab. Even still, an old laptop is the cost of entry these days.

I’m a happy user of #jellyfin. If you’re still stuck on Plex, give Jellyfin a try!

Back in 2021 i began my "Home network v2" journey, with the clear and defined goal of making things better.

But that, as it turns out, is a never-ending story and pretty much the essence of my #homelab and #networking hobby.

Новомодное слово Homelabbing постепенно входит в нашу жизнь. По сути, это создание домашних серверов и запуск на них практически любого софта, который только может прийти в голову.
При этом вариантов применения просто огромное количество. Можно поставить готовые решения вроде Home Assistant, поднять какую-нибудь базу данных, собрать домашнюю медиатеку, запустить собственный сервис или очередное приложение, навайкоженное за выходные.
Начать эксперименты с Homelabbing меня подтолкнул старый ноутбук: за последний год в нём уже во второй раз умер аккумулятор, а увеличить объём оперативной памяти больше 8 ГБ было невозможно. В итоге я задумался о замене ноутбука, но старый оказался отличной платформой для знакомства с Homelabbing и Self-Hosted решениями.
В качестве операционной системы я выбрал Proxmox. На мой взгляд, это один из самых удобных вариантов для подобных проектов благодаря открытому исходному коду, большому набору инструментов для работы с виртуальными машинами и удобному веб-интерфейсу.
Первым делом на сервере появился Home Assistant, а также виртуальная машина с Linux для изучения популярного инструмента Hermes. О них расскажу подробнее в следующих постах.

The trendy new term Homelabbing is gradually becoming part of our everyday lives. Essentially, it means building servers at home and running pretty much any software you can think of on them.
There are countless ways to use a homelab. You can install ready-made solutions like Home Assistant, set up a database, build a home media library, run your own service, or deploy yet another app you vibe-coded over a weekend.
What got me interested in Homelabbing was an old laptop. Its battery had died for the second time in a year, and there was no way to upgrade its RAM beyond 8 GB. I started thinking about replacing the laptop, but the old machine turned out to be a great platform for getting familiar with Homelabbing and Self-Hosted solutions.
For the operating system, I chose Proxmox. In my opinion, it is one of the most convenient options for projects like this thanks to its open-source nature, extensive set of tools for working with virtual machines, and convenient web interface.
The first thing I installed on the server was Home Assistant, along with a Linux virtual machine for learning the popular Hermes tool. I’ll talk about both of them in more detail in upcoming posts.

Computo is here to facilitate learning and discussion for myself.

I have gotten away with a 2006 Dell office PC for a few weeks once. So really, not a lot of computo is needed to talk with people on here.

That said, I do have all the #homelab nonsense which is mostly just fun and I could get away with a lot less computo if I simply just put effort into optimizing things like my GoToSocial server.

I'm hype to downgrade my cell phone at some point now that I have a mini e-reader.
