Arch image with turnstone (venv), dev toolkit, rootless podman; boots via boco (virtiofs shares, direct UID mapping for nested virtiofs). sshd ops channel + turnstone-server as guest marvin; state (SQLite db, config, work) on host shares; LLM via the TensorX OpenAI-compatible gateway (https://api.tensorx.ai/v1), reachable from the guest through both slirp layers with no relay.

# marvin-turnstone
|
|
|
|
Local turnstone deployment as a **container-VM**: a podman image is turned
|
|
into a bootable VM with [boco](https://git.nubo.sh/hulthe/boco) (custom
|
|
init + ext4 qcow2 + QEMU direct kernel boot). Replaces the older
|
|
opencode-in-a-container setup (`~/marvin`).
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
host podman build ──> boco build qcow2 ──> boco boot

|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
Host (Arch):
|
|
- `podman`, `qemu-base`, `virtiofsd`, `croc` (only if fetching the kernel)
|
|
- `boco` CLI on PATH and `boco-init` at `~/.local/share/boco/boco-init`
|
|
(build from the boco repo)
|
|
- Kernel at `~/.local/share/boco/registry/vmlinuz` (x86 bzImage with
|
|
`CONFIG_VIRTIO_FS=y`; transfer via croc)
|
|
|
|
VM image:
|
|
- Arch base with python + turnstone (venv at `/opt/turnstone`), git,
|
|
helix, podman (rootless, subuid range), openssh, build toolchain
|
|
- `marvin` user; sshd + turnstone-server started by
|
|
`start-turnstone.sh` (server runs as `marvin`, PID 1)
|
|
|
|
## Build
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
scripts/build.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Creates `configs/ssh/id_ed25519` (ops keypair, once), builds the podman
|
|
image, then packs it as `boco` qcow2 into the boco registry.
|
|
|
|
## Run
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
scripts/run.sh
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Web UI: <http://localhost:8080> (login `marvin` / `marvin-turnstone`
|
|
unless `ADMIN_PASSWORD` was overridden — change it)
|
|
- Ops SSH: `ssh -i configs/ssh/id_ed25519 -p 2222 marvin@localhost`
|
|
- QEMU runs foreground; quit with `ctrl-a x`
|
|
|
|
### LLM backend
|
|
|
|
`[models.tensorx]` in `configs/turnstone/config.toml` points at the
|
|
TensorX OpenAI-compatible gateway (`https://api.tensorx.ai/v1`, same
|
|
key this machine's opencode uses — see
|
|
`~/.local/share/opencode/auth.json`). Guest egress to HTTPS endpoints
|
|
works through both slirp layers; no relay needed.
|
|
|
|
Self-hosted provider later: add a `[models.*]` entry with any
|
|
OpenAI-compatible endpoint reachable from the guest (see
|
|
`config.toml.example`).
|
|
|
|
## Shares (virtiofs, survives reboots)
|
|
|
|
| Host path | Guest path | Purpose |
|
|
|------------------------|--------------------------------|--------------------------|
|
|
| `configs/turnstone/` | `/home/marvin/.config/turnstone` | turnstone config.toml |
|
|
| `data/` | `/var/lib/turnstone` | SQLite database |
|
|
| `work/` | `/home/marvin/work` | agent workspace |
|
|
|
|
Guest-written files appear on the host owned by subuid-range UIDs
|
|
(virtiofsd runs under `podman unshare`) — cosmetic, and stable across
|
|
boots.
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
Edit `configs/turnstone/config.toml` (gitignored; see
|
|
`config.toml.example`):
|
|
|
|
- `[models.tensorx]` — TensorX gateway; `api_key` must be set
|
|
(currently mirrored from opencode's `auth.json`).
|
|
- `[auth] jwt_secret` — required, generate once.
|
|
- `[database] path` — SQLite on the `data/` share.
|
|
|
|
## Notes / trade-offs
|
|
|
|
- boco boots with `-snapshot`: **only the virtiofs shares persist.**
|
|
Agent-installed packages, git clones outside `work/`, and podman image
|
|
storage inside the VM are discarded on shutdown.
|
|
- boco hardcodes `-smp 8`; memory via `VM_MEMORY=...M scripts/run.sh`.
|
|
- The old setup's Traefik is dropped — hostfwd replaces it.
