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.
Adds "a stack whose default is a substrate": a shared self-hosted Supabase
backend plus a `--stack supabase` that scaffolds per-app projects (migrations +
edge functions + static UI) which deploy against it. Apps own their code and
stay repo-durable; only their rows/blobs live on the shared substrate.
- compose runner: new RunCompose supervises a multi-container stack as one
systemd unit (ExecStart=`compose up`, generated ExecStop=`compose down`);
secrets via EnvironmentFile. Reusable beyond Supabase. Deployment.stop_cmd
carries the teardown command through the registry.
- supabase stack: CLI --stack choice, STACK_DEFAULTS→frontend with
build.outputs=[public], _scaffold_supabase() (migrations/RLS/functions/
static UI/app manifest), and SupabaseHandler with a forward-only idempotent
migration runner (plan_migrations + psql build) and deno dev-verbs.
- docs: docs/stacks/supabase.md, registered in CLAUDE.md; compose runner
documented in registry.md.
- tests: compose run/stop cmd, systemd ExecStop, compose host-route TLS,
migration planner, supabase verb resolution, create --stack supabase.
A python-runner service ran from a tool venv (uv tool install --editable),
separate from the project venv that uv sync manages. The editable link kept
source live, but dependencies were resolved independently in each venv, so a
new dependency landed in the project venv and never reached the running
service — leaving no clean rollout for it.
Deploy now emits ExecStart=uv run --project <source> --no-dev <program>,
running the service in place from its own project venv. uv run syncs the env
to the lockfile before launching, so a single restart picks up both code and
dependency changes; the ExecStart is deterministic from source and never goes
stale. The tool-venv install is gated to the command runner only; uv tool
install is reserved for tool-behavior programs, where PATH is the point. A
python service with no resolvable source falls back to a PATH lookup.
