Jon Chery 56fcf8b399 feat(P01): orca init full bootstrap + schema 0006
orca init transforms from a bare mkdir into a full single-node cluster
bootstrap. After `orca init`, `orca doctor` passes with zero FAILs
on the bootstrap checks (CA, cert, db, localhost node).

Changes:
- migration 0006: nodes.kind + nodes.os nullable columns (REQ-049)
- model.Node: Kind + OS fields + NodeKind constants (localhost|linux|proxmox)
- NodeRepo: extended Insert/Get/List/Watch/scanNode for kind/os columns
  (NULL -> "" mapping); added GetByName + UpdateLastSeenAndOS helpers
- internal/cli/osdetect.go: detectOS() from /etc/os-release ID= field
  (D-032); fallback to /usr/lib/os-release then "linux"
- internal/cli/init.go: full bootstrap sequence (REQ-047, REQ-048):
  1. MkdirAll namespace dir
  2. store.Open (runs migrations 0001..0006)
  3. security.CAInit (idempotent fast-path)
  4. server cert gen if absent (D-036: skip if present)
  5. detectOS from /etc/os-release
  6. localhost node upsert (insert if new, refresh last_seen+os if exists)
  Idempotent re-run: no duplicate node, no cert regen, id/joined_at preserved
- --json output: full bootstrap summary (namespace, db, ca_fp, cert_fp,
  os, node_id, steps array)
- tests: init idempotency, osdetect parsing (ubuntu/debian/alpine/pve),
  kind/os round-trip, NULL->"" mapping, GetByName, UpdateLastSeenAndOS

E2E smoke test: orca init -> 5 PASS / 0 WARN / 1 FAIL (network=daemon
not running, expected); orca node list shows localhost node (os=ubuntu).

Orca

Offline/CLI-first orchestration engine inspired by HashiCorp Nomad, far simpler than Kubernetes.

Status

v0.1: Foundation — see .ciagent/ROADMAP.md for the 6-phase plan.

Pillars

  • Simplicity — single binary, minimal dependencies
  • AI-first — CLI designed for both humans and AI agents
  • Offline-first — no cloud dependencies
  • CLI-first — primary interface is the command line
  • Security before features — NFRs ship before new functionality
  • Bug fixes before features — stability is paramount
  • NFRs before features — observability and auditability first

Quickstart

Install (1-liner)

# User-level install (binary at ~/.local/bin/orca, state at ~/.orca)
curl -fsSL https://git.cloudinit.dev/coreci/orca/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | bash

# System-level install (binary at /usr/local/bin/orca, state at /root/.orca)
curl -fsSL https://git.cloudinit.dev/coreci/orca/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | sudo bash -s -- --system

# Pin a specific version
curl -fsSL https://git.cloudinit.dev/coreci/orca/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | bash -s -- --version v0.4.2

Then initialize local state and verify:

orca init          # creates ~/.orca/ (or /root/.orca with --system)
orca version       # prints version info
orca --help        # show all subcommands

Build from source

make build         # Build binary to ./bin/orca
./bin/orca init    # Initialize local state
./bin/orca version # Verify

Update in place

Re-running the installer updates the binary while preserving your config, database, and certificates in the namespace dir:

curl -fsSL https://git.cloudinit.dev/coreci/orca/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
# → "updated orca from v0.4.1 to v0.4.2"

Subcommands

Command Description Status
orca version Print version info Phase 1
orca init Initialize local orca state Phase 1 (stub)
orca status Show orca daemon status Phase 1 (stub)
orca node Node management (join, leave, list) Phase 2
orca job Job management (run, list, stop, logs) Phase 3

Development

make build      # Build binary to ./bin/orca
make test       # Run tests with race detection
make lint       # Run golangci-lint
make fmt        # Format code
make release    # Build + create Gitea release (Phase 6)
