# homelab-ops output preview
## PART A: Task fit
- Use case: Operate the homelab platform — start/stop services, backups, updates, disaster-recovery, and Docker management. Use when this capability is needed. You can manage the homelab platform through shell scripts and Docker commands. runs entirely locally; runs on Docker. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Cline and 23 more..
- Inputs: target material, constraints, expected output, and acceptance criteria.
- Evidence boundary: follow “Repository Layout / Docker Compose Commands / Platform Scripts” and do not present inference as author intent.
## PART B: Execution result
- **01** The card summarizes the use case; runtime output centers on “Operate the homelab platform — start/stop services, backups, updates, disaster-recovery, and Docker management. Use when this capability is needed. You can manage the homelab platform through shell scripts and Docker commands. runs entirely locally; runs on Docker. Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Cline and 23 more.”.
- **02** When the source has headings, the agent prioritizes “Repository Layout / Docker Compose Commands / Platform Scripts” so the result follows the author’s structure.
- **03** Typical output includes task judgment, concrete steps, required commands or file edits, validation, and follow-up options.
- **04** Risk context follows the fingerprint: read files, write/modify files, run shell commands; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
## Running Rules
- read files, write/modify files, run shell commands; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
- Validate with a small sample before expanding scope.
- Return the result, validation criteria, and next iteration options. The source does not require a stable slash command. After installation, invoke the skill by name and describe the task.
Name target files or source material, expected output, forbidden changes, and whether network or shell access is allowed. Permission fingerprint: read files, write/modify files, run shell commands.
Start with a small task and check whether the result follows “Repository Layout / Docker Compose Commands / Platform Scripts”. Inspect diffs, logs, previews, or tests before expanding scope.
Confirm the final output includes a concrete result, evidence, and next action. If it stays generic, tighten inputs, boundaries, and acceptance criteria.

# homelab-ops
## When to use
- Operate the homelab platform — start/stop services, backups, updates, disaster-recovery, and Docker management. Use wh…
- Use it when the task has clear inputs, repeatable steps, and validation criteria.
## What to provide
- Target material, scope, expected result, and forbidden changes.
- Whether network, commands, file writes, or external services are allowed.
## Execution rules
- Organize steps around “Repository Layout / Docker Compose Commands / Platform Scripts” and keep inference separate from source facts.
- read files, write/modify files, run shell commands; mostly runs locally; usually needs no extra API key.
- Validate with a small sample before expanding the task.
## Output requirements
- Return the deliverable, key evidence, validation method, and next action.
- Mark missing information as unknown; do not invent commands, platforms, or dependencies. The author source anchors workflow facts; repository files anchor sources and commands; Fluxly only adds fit, limitations, and quality judgment.

} Homelab — Platform Operations
You can manage the homelab platform through shell scripts and Docker commands.
Repository Layout
The homelab repo lives at ~/homelab on the Mac mini. Key paths:
| Path | Purpose |
|---|---|
scripts/platform-up |
Start all platform services (Caddy, Authentik…) |
scripts/app-up <app> |
Start a single app (e.g., immich) |
scripts/app-backup <app> |
Snapshot an app's volumes to backup dir |
scripts/app-update <app> |
Pull latest images and recreate an app |
scripts/dr-verify |
Verify disaster-recovery readiness |
platform/ |
Platform service compose files |
apps/ |
App compose files (immich, etc.) |
DESIGN.md |
Architecture reference |
docs/ |
Operational procedures, runbooks, ADRs |
Docker Compose Commands
All services use Docker Compose. Compose files live in their respective directories.
# List running containers
docker ps --format "table {{.Names}}\t{{.Status}}\t{{.Ports}}"
# Restart a specific service
cd ~/homelab/platform/caddy && docker compose restart
# View logs (last 50 lines, follow)
docker compose -f ~/homelab/apps/immich/compose.yml logs --tail 50 -f
# Pull latest images for an app
cd ~/homelab/apps/immich && docker compose pull && docker compose up -d
# Check resource usage
docker stats --no-stream --format "table {{.Name}}\t{{.CPUPerc}}\t{{.MemUsage}}"
Platform Scripts
Always use the provided scripts when they exist — they handle ordering, health checks, and logging.
Start the entire platform
~/homelab/scripts/platform-up
Starts services in dependency order: networking → Caddy → Authentik → Homepage → Dockge → Uptime Kuma.
Backup an application
~/homelab/scripts/app-backup immich
Creates a timestamped snapshot of all named volumes for the app. Backups go to the configured backup directory.
Update an application
~/homelab/scripts/app-update immich
Pulls latest images, recreates containers, verifies health.
Verify disaster recovery
~/homelab/scripts/dr-verify
Checks backup freshness, volume integrity, and restore readiness.
Service Quick Reference
| Service | Directory | Network | Key Ports |
|---|---|---|---|
| Caddy | platform/caddy |

| PostgreSQL | platform/authentik (bundled) |
authentik | 5432 |

authentik | 6379 |
| Homepage | platform/homepage |
caddy-net | 3000 |
| Dockge | platform/dockge |
caddy-net | 5001 |
| Uptime Kuma | platform/uptime-kuma |
caddy-net | 3001 |
| Immich | apps/immich |
caddy-net + immich-internal | 2283 |
Guidelines
- Never run destructive commands (
docker system prune,docker volume rm) without explicit confirmation and a fresh backup. - Prefer the platform scripts over raw
docker composecommands — they handle dependency ordering. - When updating, always check
docker psafter to verify containers are healthy. - The Caddy reverse proxy resolves
*.homehostnames. If a service is unreachable, check Caddy first. - All compose files use
restart: unless-stopped. Manualdocker stoppersists across reboots.
