About ArgoBox
ArgoBox is a private AI control plane for homelabs. The current public focus is narrower than the full repository: ArgoBox, Hermes, OpenClaw, and Home Assistant as one approval-first stack.
The Mission
Make local AI operators useful without blind trust.
ArgoBox is being hardened around one concrete product promise: a private AI control plane for homelabs. Hermes handles routing, OpenClaw asks for actions, ArgoBox enforces approval and audit boundaries, and Home Assistant is the automation substrate instead of something ArgoBox tries to replace.
Build It Wrong First
Every system here started as a bad idea that refused to stay dead. The build swarm was supposed to be a weekend project. The custom distro was "just for fun." Fourteen months later, they're the backbone of everything else.
Span The Distance
Two physical sites. Two Proxmox clusters. One mesh network that makes 38ms feel like the same rack. If your homelab can't survive being split across two houses, you're not thinking distributed enough.
Ship The Lab
This isn't a sandbox that never sees production traffic. Every dashboard, pipeline, and tool on this site runs on the same infrastructure it documents. The site you're reading was built and deployed by the systems it describes.
Core Capabilities
Kubernetes Orchestration
Multi-cluster K3s deployments with GitOps-driven configuration and automated scaling.
Platform Engineering
Custom developer portals, CI/CD pipelines, and infrastructure automation workflows.
Distributed Computing
Build swarm architecture for parallel compilation across heterogeneous hardware.
Infrastructure as Code
Terraform, Ansible, and custom automation for reproducible environments.
Open Source Fork It, Ship It
ArgoBox is MIT-licensed and designed to be forked. Set your domain, configure your services, and deploy your own operations platform. Modules degrade gracefully — start with what you have and add infrastructure as you grow.
$ git clone argobox && cd argobox
