The Miniflux inbox got noisy after a few subreddits + HN + Lobste.rs.
This stack distills a single static page twice a day — at 0800 and
2000 local — that surfaces only what cleared score + ratio filters,
each item tldr'd by qwen3.5-35-a3b on llama-swap.
Pipeline (digest.py, ~330 lines):
1. Discover subreddits from Miniflux feeds (any reddit.com/r/<sub>/
URL — single source of truth, no duplicated config).
2. Reddit JSON top-of-day per sub. Filter: score >= 50,
upvote_ratio >= 0.85. Cap 8 items per sub.
3. Miniflux /v1/entries for the 'Tech aggregators' category
(HN, Lobste.rs) — last 12 hours.
4. Batched per-source summarization via llama-swap
/v1/chat/completions. Each post gets a one-sentence tldr +
one-word tag (news / tutorial / release / discussion /
question / showcase / drama / meme).
5. Render Jinja2 template. Atomic write to /output/index.html
(.tmp + rename) so partial pages never get served. Per-edition
archive at /output/edition-YYYY-MM-DD-{am,pm}.html.
Two containers:
news-digest-worker python:3.12-alpine + busybox crond
news-digest-web nginx:alpine, port 8181, homepage card via
docker labels (group=News, fits next to Miniflux)
Both bind-mount /opt/docker/data/news-digest as /output and
/usr/share/nginx/html respectively.
Aesthetic — operations-center chrome (Australis cool-mono palette,
JetBrains Mono UPPERCASE eyebrows, mdi-glyph anchor) wrapping
editorial-serif news content (Fraunces variable serif w/ optical
sizes). Two type families that wouldn't normally meet, intentionally
combined: chrome says 'filed at 0800 from the bridge'; headlines say
'this is news, read it like news.' Sticky aurora-glow rule under the
masthead is the only sanctioned Australis gradient.
Edition stamp (AM/PM in big mono Australis-yellow) is the signature
piece — establishes the twice-daily rhythm at a glance.
All filtering + LLM + scheduling knobs in .env. Subreddit list is
implicit (read from Miniflux), so adding a sub = subscribing in
Miniflux, no config edit on this stack.
eshpfi-management
Infrastructure management workspace for the PFI fleet (plus the ESH home-lab host). Tracks server state, canonical Docker Compose stacks, per-host configs, and the tooling that moves them around.
See CLAUDE.md for the full set of conventions and the rules Claude Code sessions follow when working here.

Common tasks
Refresh one host's snapshot:
scripts/refresh-server-info.sh ana-docker
Refresh all hosts:
scripts/refresh-server-info.sh all
Refresh all Proxmox nodes (separate flow — captures VM/LXC/backup-coverage):
scripts/refresh-proxmox-info.sh all
Add a new host:
scripts/add-host.sh <name> <ip-or-user@ip>
scripts/refresh-server-info.sh <name>
Validate discovery (without hitting the network):
scripts/refresh-server-info.sh --validate-only all
Push a stack to a host (with diff + confirm):
scripts/deploy-stack.sh <host> <stack>
Pull every server's compose/conf trees into stacks-mirror/ (not committed — see .gitignore):
scripts/sync-stacks.sh all
Backup pipeline
Backups are driven by per-host resticprofile configs under configs/restic/<host>/, scheduled via systemd timers on each host:
- Writes: each host backs up to its site-local rest-server (
rest-server-anaorrest-server-nh3), over HTTP basic-auth. - Authentication: shared
.htpasswdfile on both rest-servers, one entry per host; credentials stored in/etc/restic/restic.envon each client host. - Encryption: per-host client-side passphrase in
/etc/restic/password(unique per repo; losing it = losing that host's backups). - Visibility: Backrest (
http://10.250.50.70:9898) shows every repo for browsing/restore. - Schedule: backup at 01:00 daily,
forgetat 03:00 daily, weeklycheck --read-data-subset 10%on Sundays. - Prune: manual ceremony (rest-server runs with
--append-only, which blocks destructive prune ops). - Off-site: cross-site rsync between the two rest-server data dirs is planned (not yet implemented).
Coverage status (as of 2026-04-20)
Goal: every Docker host + configs + every database covered, not just VM images.
| Layer | State |
|---|---|
| VM-level (Proxmox vzdump) | ✅ All running guests covered across pfi-pve / nh3-pve / esh-pve-nas; esh-pve has VMID 108 uncovered |
| ana-docker restic (host files + DBs) | ✅ configs/restic/ana-docker/ with pre-backup hooks for synapse / seafile / vaultwarden |
| ana-ml2 restic | ❌ Bare metal — no vzdump, no restic yet. Highest-priority gap |
| nh3-docker restic | ✅ Light — no DB hooks needed |
| esh-docker-vm restic | ✅ With DB hooks for paperless-postgres (external), home-assistant + pgadmin + uptime-kuma (host-side sqlite3), calibre-web-automated (in-container sqlite3) |
| vm-esh-nas restic | ✅ Light — NFS mounts explicitly excluded |
| nh3-dev (workstation) restic | ✅ /home/lkraven + /etc with language-toolchain and build-output excludes |
| DB dumps: mattermost, openwebui, gitea, beszel-hub | ❌ Pre-backup hooks not written yet |
| Cross-site redundancy | ❌ rsync between rest-server-ana ↔ rest-server-nh3 planned |
| Prune ceremony | ❌ scripts/restic-prune.sh planned (rest-server --append-only blocks direct prune) |
| offen/docker-volume-backup sidecars on esh-docker-vm | ❌ Remove once restic proves itself (~1 week of clean runs) |
Authoritative vs. mirror
- Authoritative: files on each server under
/opt/docker/compose/<stack>/and/opt/docker/conf/<stack>/. - This workspace: source-of-truth copies under
stacks/<name>/(hand-curated), and a gitignored mirror understacks-mirror/pulled bysync-stacks.sh.
Edit in stacks/, push with deploy-stack.sh. Never commit stacks-mirror/ — it can contain embedded plaintext secrets from upstream compose files that haven't been audited yet.
