name uncloud description Use when managing an Uncloud cluster — deploying services, configuring Caddy ingress, adding static proxy routes for non-cluster devices, publishing ports, scaling, inspecting logs, or managing machines and volumes with the `uc` CLI. metadata {"origin":"ECC"} Uncloud Cluster Management Reference for the uc CLI — a decentralised self-hosting platform using Docker containers, WireGuard mesh networking, and Caddy reverse proxy. When to Activate Use this skill when working with Uncloud clusters, especially when: Bootstrapping or joining machines with uc machine Deploying services from Compose files with uc deploy Publishing HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, or UDP ports through Uncloud Configuring Caddy ingress with x-caddy , x-ports , or --caddyfile Routing external LAN devices through the cluster proxy Inspecting logs, service state, volumes, DNS, or machine placement How It Works Uncloud runs Docker services across peer machines connected by a WireGuard mesh. Each machine is an equal cluster member; services communicate on the overlay network and Caddy runs globally to terminate public HTTP/HTTPS traffic. Compose files can use Uncloud extensions for ingress, placement, and generated Caddy configuration, while the uc CLI handles image distribution, scheduling, scaling, logs, and cluster state. Examples uc machine init user@host --name machine-1 uc service run --name web -p app.example.com:8080/https nginx:latest uc deploy Core Concepts No central control plane — all machines are equal peers connected by WireGuard Caddy runs as a global service on every machine; auto-obtains TLS from Let's Encrypt Overlay network — services communicate via 10.210.0.0/16 by default; DNS provided inside the mesh Caddyfile is autogenerated — never edit it directly; use x-caddy / --caddyfile instead CLI Quick Reference Machines Command Purpose uc machine init user@host Bootstrap first machine / new cluster uc machine add user@host Join machine to existing cluster uc machine ls List machines uc machine update NAME --public-ip IP Update public IP for ingress uc machine rm NAME Remove machine Key init flags: --name , --network 10.210.0.0/16 , --no-caddy , --no-dns , --public-ip auto\|IP\|none Services Command Purpose uc service ls / uc ls List services uc service run IMAGE Run a single container service uc deploy Deploy from compose.yaml uc deploy --no-build Deploy already-pushed images without rebuilding uc deploy --recreate Force service recreation uc scale SERVICE N Set replica count uc service logs SERVICE View logs uc service exec SERVICE Shell into container uc service inspect SERVICE Detailed info uc service rm SERVICE Remove service (keeps named volumes) uc ps All containers across cluster Images uc image push myapp:latest # Push local image to all machines uc image push myapp:latest -m machine1,machine2 # Push to specific machines uc images # List images in cluster Volumes uc volume ls # All volumes uc volume ls -m machine1 # On specific machine uc volume create NAME -m MACHINE uc volume rm NAME Caddy uc caddy config # Show current generated Caddyfile (read-only) uc caddy deploy # Deploy/upgrade Caddy across cluster DNS & Context uc dns show # Show reserved *.uncld.dev domain uc dns reserve # Reserve a new domain uc ctx ls # List cluster contexts uc ctx use prod # Switch context Port Publishing HTTP/HTTPS (via Caddy reverse proxy) -p [hostname:]container_port[/protocol] Example Meaning -p 8080/https HTTPS with auto service-name.cluster-domain hostname -p app.example.com:8080/https HTTPS with custom hostname -p 8080/http HTTP only, no TLS TCP/UDP (host-bound, bypasses Caddy) -p [host_ip:]host_port:container_port[/protocol]@host Example Meaning -p 5432:5432@host TCP 5432 on all interfaces -p 127.0.0.1:5432:5432@host TCP 5432 loopback only -p 53:5353/udp@host UDP Compose File Extensions Uncloud adds these extensions on top of Docker Compose: x-ports — publish ports with domains services: app: image: app:latest x-ports: - example.com:8000/https - www.example.com:8000/https - api.example.com:9000/https x-caddy — custom Caddy config for service services: app: image: app:latest x-caddy: | example.com { redir https://www.example.com{uri} permanent } www.example.com { reverse_proxy {{upstreams 8000}} { import common_proxy } basic_auth /admin/* { admin $2a$14$... } } Template functions available inside x-caddy : {{upstreams [service] [port]}} — healthy container IPs {{.Name}} — service name {{.Upstreams}} — map of all services → IPs x-machines — placement constraints services: db: image: postgres:18 x-machines: db-machine # Single machine name app: image: app:latest x-machines: - machine-1 - machine-2 Full multi-service example services: api: build: ./api x-ports: - api.example.com:3000/https environment: DATABASE_URL: postgres://db:5432/mydb web: build: ./web x-ports: - example.com:8000/https - www.example.com:8000/https environment: API_URL: http://api:3000 db: image: postgres:18 environment: POSTGRES_PASSWORD: ${DB_PASSWORD} volumes: - db-data:/var/lib/postgresql/data x-machines: db-machine volumes: db-data: Routing to External (Non-Cluster) Devices To expose an external device (e.g. BMC, NAS, router UI) via Caddy without running a real container: 1. Create a Caddyfile snippet (e.g. ~/device.caddyfile ): https://device.example.com { reverse_proxy https://192.168.1.x { transport http { tls_insecure_skip_verify # needed for self-signed BMC certs } } log } For plaintext upstream: reverse_proxy http://192.168.1.x:port 2. Register as a named service with no-op container: uc service run \ --name device-bmc \ --caddyfile ~/device.caddyfile \ registry.k8s.io/pause:3.9 pause is a minimal no-op container — it does nothing, but gives Uncloud a service entry to attach the Caddyfile to. 3. Verify: uc caddy config # device.example.com block should appear --caddyfile cannot be combined with non- @host published ports. DNS tip: A wildcard record ( *.yourdomain.com → cluster-public-ip ) means any new subdomain works immediately — no DNS change needed per service. Service DNS (Internal) Services inside the cluster resolve each other by name: DNS name Resolves to service-name Any healthy container service-name.internal Same rr.service-name.internal Round-robin nearest.service-name.internal Machine-local first Scaling & Global Services uc scale web 5 # 5 replicas (spread across machines) uc scale web 1 # Scale down services: caddy: deploy: mode: global # One container on every machine Image Tag Templates (in compose.yaml) image: myapp:{{gitdate "20060102" }}.{{gitsha 7 }} image: myapp:{{gitsha 7 }}.${GITHUB_RUN_ID:-local} Function Output {{gitsha N}} First N chars of commit SHA {{gitdate "format"}} Git commit date in Go format {{date "format"}} Current date Common Workflows Deploy from source: uc deploy # Build + push + deploy uc build --push && uc deploy --no-build # Separate steps Inspect a service: uc inspect web uc logs -f web uc logs --since 1h web uc exec web # Opens shell uc exec web /bin/sh -c "env" # Run specific command Zero-downtime deploys happen automatically; Uncloud waits for health checks before terminating old containers. Force recreate: uc deploy --recreate Common Mistakes Mistake Fix Editing the Caddyfile directly Use x-caddy in compose or --caddyfile on uc service run Proxying an HTTPS upstream with self-signed cert Add transport http { tls_insecure_skip_verify } uc caddy config shows no user-defined blocks Caddy admin socket unreachable — check uc inspect caddy and uc logs caddy Service can't reach external LAN IP from container Verify Caddy container's host can route to target network Volumes lost after uc service rm Named volumes persist; only anonymous volumes are auto-removed
