Supporting infrastructure

The machines are the workshop, not the work.

The Forge and The Trove underpin development, local-AI production and private services. This page stays deliberately high level.

Workstation

The Forge

A Linux workstation used for development, GPU-backed local-AI inference and creative-production workloads. The interesting work is resource control, repeatable environments and diagnosis—not a parts-list flex.

Local model and speech workloads
Development and validation environments
Resource and process fault isolation

Server

The Trove

A Linux server supporting containerised services, storage, backups and private development infrastructure. Operations focus on recovery, controlled exposure and systems that remain understandable under failure.

Containers and private services
Storage, backup and recovery
Network and access boundaries

Public boundary

Useful shape, no attack-surface inventory.

Exact topology, private addresses, credentials, current service exposure and drift-prone hardware values are not published. The portfolio describes engineering capability without turning a home environment into reconnaissance material.
