v0.1.0
b38a7de

The first release: two servers, a deploy agent, a dashboard, and monitoring, enough to run a
handful of server-rendered apps from Docker Hub images behind HTTPS.

Added

  • Apps server: Caddy with automatic HTTPS in front of one container per app; www.
    redirects for root domains; HTTP/3.
  • Agent (spotcraft-agent image): HTTP API on the private network to list, deploy, update,
    remove and read logs of apps. A deploy pulls the image, starts it with a health wait and
    reloads Caddy, and puts the previous version back if any step fails.
  • Dashboard (spotcraft-dashboard image): password login; apps list with status and
    24-hour uptime; add and edit apps with tag suggestions from Docker Hub; per-app reachability,
    uptime, CPU, memory, response time and logs; redeploy and remove; a server page with host
    CPU, memory, disk, load and uptime.
  • Monitoring on the ops server: VictoriaMetrics, vmagent, node-exporter and cAdvisor
    metrics, and HTTPS uptime probes of every app that follow the app list automatically.
  • Hetzner module (OpenTofu): two ARM servers, a private network, a cloud firewall and a
    deploy key; optional daily backups of the apps server.
  • First-boot setup (infra/cloud-init.yaml) for any Debian/Ubuntu VPS.
  • Deploy workflow: deploys both servers at a published image tag from a GitHub
    environment, then checks the dashboard from outside.
  • Multi-arch images (amd64 and arm64) on Docker Hub with provenance and SBOM.
  • Website at spotcraft.dev (spotcraft-site image): a home page and the docs for each
    release, rendered from the repository's Markdown.
  • The dashboard follows the system's dark mode.

Security

  • Hosted apps run without Linux capabilities, with no-new-privileges, a read-only root
    filesystem by default, and memory, CPU and process limits.
  • Spotcraft's own services run without capabilities (Caddy keeps NET_BIND_SERVICE), read-only
    where possible, with limits and health checks; none runs privileged.
  • The agent answers only the ops server's private address and requires a bearer token.
  • The dashboard uses a scrypt password hash, an HMAC-signed SameSite=Strict session cookie, a
    per-address login lockout, a nonce-based CSP, HSTS and a 1 MB request limit.
  • Real client addresses for IPv6 visitors (IPv6-enabled Docker networks).
  • Distroless Node 26 images; CI fails on fixable HIGH/CRITICAL vulnerabilities; Dependabot
    proposes weekly updates. Base images and actions are pinned by digest and commit.
  • Servers: key-only SSH as a deploy user with modern algorithms only, root login refused,
    two firewalls, automatic security updates.
