This page documents the full setup: what runs, how it connects, and why.</p> <hr> <h2 id="architecture-overview">Architecture Overview</h2> <p>The setup has two physical layers: a <strong>home server</strong> (<code>sienabot</code>, Ubuntu + Docker) that runs all the services, and a <strong>VPS</strong> (<code>SG-Ubuntu-pangolin</code>) that acts as the secure public entry point. Traffic flows through <strong>Gerbil</strong> (WireGuard tunnel) and <strong>Pangolin</strong> (reverse proxy) on the VPS, down to <strong>Newt</strong> on the home server — meaning no inbound ports are ever opened on the home network.</p>
