Replace the conflated `runner` axis with two orthogonal ones: `manager`
(systemd|caddy|path|none) — who supervises/realizes a deployment — and, for
systemd only, a nested `launcher` (python|command|container|compose|node) — how
the process starts. ServiceSpec and JobSpec collapse into one manager-
discriminated DeploymentSpec union (Systemd/Caddy/Path/Remote); the services/
and jobs/ config dirs collapse into one deployments/ dir. The human "kind"
(service|job|tool|static|reference) is fully derived (kind_for), never stored —
the frontend kind is renamed static. behavior is gone.
- core: DeploymentSpec union + LaunchSpec + kind_for; legacy-aware loader
normalizes old runner shapes; CastleConfig.deployments with derived
services/jobs/tools views; registry.Deployment carries manager/launcher/kind.
- cli: service/job/tool as filtered views + a deployment group; --behavior→--kind,
create --runner→--launcher; lifecycle dispatches over config.deployments.
- castle-api: /deployments primary with /services,/jobs as views; summaries
derive kind; PUT/DELETE /config/deployments/{name} (services/jobs aliased).
- app: KindBadge, frontend→static everywhere, pick-a-kind creation wizard,
per-kind config editors.
- docs: single deployments/ layout, manager/launcher, static kind throughout.
Live migration verified byte-identical: regenerated Caddyfile and every unit
ExecStart line unchanged, so nothing restarted. Suites: core 124, cli 25,
castle-api 55; dashboard build + type-check clean.
- Introduced `_write_castle_config` function to scatter nested config into separate YAML files for programs, services, and jobs.
- Updated `castle_root` fixture to utilize the new config writing method.
- Added tests for configuration aggregation and scattering in `test_health.py`.
- Removed legacy unit handling from `manifest.py` and refactored related code in `config.py`.
- Updated documentation to reflect new configuration directory structure.
- Removed obsolete unit tests related to unit expansion.
- Extract all deploy logic from CLI into castle-core/deploy.py as a reusable deploy() function
* Resolves services/jobs to DeployedComponents
* Generates systemd units and Caddyfile
* Copies frontend assets and reloads systemd
* Returns DeployResult with deployed count and messages
- Simplify CLI deploy command to a thin wrapper calling castle_core.deploy()
- Add POST /deploy endpoint to castle-api for remote deployment management
* Supports optional {name} body param to deploy one or all services
* Returns deployment result as JSON
- Register deploy router in castle-api main.py
- Update README with new deploy endpoint documentation
This enables full remote management: build, test, lint, and deploy any castle
node over HTTP (e.g. POST http://node:9000/api/deploy)
Sync was a bootstrap command that ran `git submodule update` and `uv tool install` for each program. Neither machine uses git submodules anymore, and the install functionality is already available as a program action (`POST /programs/{name}/install`).
Removed files:
- cli/src/castle_cli/commands/sync.py
Updated files:
- cli/src/castle_cli/main.py (removed sync subparser and dispatch)
- README.md (removed sync from Quick Start and CLI reference)
Eliminates inconsistency where tools had their own filtered view but daemons and frontends didn't.
Changes:
- API: Removed tools router and ToolSummary/ToolDetail models. Added optional behavior query parameter to GET /programs for filtering by program type (tool, daemon, frontend).
- Frontend: Updated hooks to pass behavior param to usePrograms instead of separate useTools. Updated components to use ProgramSummary type. Removed useToolDetail hook.
- Docs: Updated API documentation to reflect program behavior filtering.
