Tested guides

Run a pinned Ollama container, pull a small local model, verify CLI and HTTP responses, and inspect recorded CPU-only test results and real errors.

Run a pinned local Qdrant container, write and filter vectors, inspect a dimension error and verify restart persistence. Recorded fixture, not semantic quality or backup recovery.

Run a local Ollama/Qdrant RAG fixture and inspect a frozen 12-question challenge: strict matches, false refusals, wrong quantity and retired-source failures.

Index local Markdown and text files with Ollama and Qdrant, return file-and-line citations, and reproduce indexing and wrong-source failure checks.

Run a complete pinned Prometheus-to-Alertmanager HTTP delivery lab. Stop a synthetic target and inspect actual firing and resolved notifications.

Run a real local drafting app with private drafts, hash-bound approval, release switching and rollback, with pinned Docker files and recorded failure tests.

How to structure a minimal Docker Compose setup for AI content operations without turning a small publishing workflow into an overbuilt platform.

Run a pinned Caddy-to-Qdrant proxy, reproduce an actual 502 and recovery, and distinguish the tested local HTTP route from public TLS and authentication.

A practical guide to building a small, reliable self-hosted AI stack on one VPS for content, automation, and SEO workflows.

Import a complete n8n workflow, call a local model and verify success and upstream failure without publishing or paid APIs.

Follow the tested local draft-to-release application and distinguish its approval checks from production authorization.

Install pinned Listmonk and PostgreSQL, log in, create a fictional subscriber, check restart persistence and verify deletion without sending email.

Complete a pinned local Matomo install, log in and verify a fictional HTTP tracking event and restart persistence without tracking public visitors.

Run a small stdin-to-Ollama client with no history file or model tools, and inspect actual fictional-input and rejection results.

Run a pinned local Prometheus stack, scrape Qdrant, evaluate a down rule, and reproduce an actual outage and recovery with downloadable files.

Run a pinned Restic container on fictional files, reject a wrong key, check repository data and verify a restored older snapshot with SHA-256.

Run pinned Alertmanager with a local HTTP receiver. Inspect actual firing/resolved delivery and a bounded silence check; no external paging is claimed.

Download two synthetic PNGs and a runnable Tesseract wrapper. Compare a clean exact match with empty output that still returned exit code zero.

Load a real Prometheus datasource and Qdrant dashboard from files, inspect a recorded outage, and verify queries through Grafana in a local Docker lab.
