Names collide across resource types (a program and a service can share a name),
so the CLI no longer resolves bare names. Operations live under the resource
they act on; platform lifecycle and the cross-resource overview stay top-level.
castle program list|info|create|add|clone|delete|run|install|uninstall|
build|test|lint|format|type-check|check
castle service list|info|create|delete|deploy|enable|disable|start|stop|restart|logs
castle job <same verbs> (create takes --schedule)
castle gateway start|stop|reload|status
castle list | status | deploy [name] # cross-cutting
castle start | stop | restart # whole platform (systemd verbs)
Key changes:
- info/delete/list/run are resource-scoped (no more cross-section name match).
- delete only removes the named resource's entry; program delete still blocks
when a deployment references it.
- per-resource start/stop/restart (systemctl on the unit/timer); top-level
start/stop/restart act on the whole platform.
- expose → 'service create' (more general: --program ref, --runner); gained
'job create' (the CLI never had one).
- dropped up/down — bringing things online is the honest 'deploy && start'.
Docs (CLAUDE.md, registry.md, stack guides) and user-facing messages updated.
core 94 / cli 24 / api 52 green; ruff clean. Verified live: program/service/job
list+info scope correctly, service create+scoped-delete round-trips.
Driven by adopting lakehouse (an existing daemon that bundles its own SPA) —
see docs/findings-lakehouse.md.
#3 deploy reloads the gateway. castle deploy regenerated the Caddyfile but
left the running Caddy on the old config, so new proxy routes were silently
dead. Deploy now reloads the gateway when it's running.
#1 castle expose <program>. Turns an adopted program into a service
(run/port/health/proxy/systemd) in one command — the missing
daemon-to-service step. Flags: --port --health --path --run --port-env
--host --no-proxy.
#2 port_env mapping. A service can declare expose.http.internal.port_env so
castle sets the env var the program actually reads (e.g. lakehoused reads
LAKEHOUSED_DAEMON_PORT, not castle's convention LAKEHOUSE_PORT). Castle now
genuinely drives an adopted daemon's bind port.
#4a auto-base for react-vite. The build passes VITE_BASE = the gateway serve
prefix (/<name>/, or / for castle-app); vite.config reads it. A castle-built
frontend now works at its subpath with no hand-tuned base. castle-app's
vite.config updated as the reference.
#4b host-based routing. proxy.caddy.host routes a whole hostname to the backend
root via a host matcher inside the :9000 site, so a root-based SPA (base="/")
serves unchanged — the fix for proxying an app castle can't rebuild. Caddyfile
now emits 'auto_https off' (HTTP-only gateway on a non-standard port).
Nit: activate skips the editable reinstall when the tool is already on PATH.
Tests: core 94, cli 24, api 52; ruff + app build clean. Verified live: lakehouse
runs under systemd, API at /lakehouse, full UI (SPA boots) via host routing.
- Updated the terminology from "components" to "programs" across the codebase, including in config loading, saving, and manifest specifications.
- Introduced a new `stacks.py` file to handle lifecycle actions for development stacks, implementing handlers for Python and React Vite stacks.
- Adjusted tests to reflect the new program structure and ensure proper functionality.
- Revised documentation to align with the new terminology and structure, ensuring clarity on the purpose and configuration of programs, services, and jobs.
