https://brenon.cloud/blog Notes, deep-dives and lessons learned while running a personal cloud. en-US Fri, 28 Aug 2026 01:30:07 GMT https://brenon.cloud/blog/how-much-to-run-your-own-cloud https://brenon.cloud/blog/how-much-to-run-your-own-cloud?lang=en Sat, 29 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT A 3-node house Swarm, two mining GPUs that pay their own power, Cloudflare at US$ 0, Netlify Personal at US$ 9, Akash for cents, GitHub at US$ 10, AI at ~US$ 150, and Clinicsy already returning ~US$ 100/month. Brenon Araujo https://brenon.cloud/blog/agentic-ops-token-mix https://brenon.cloud/blog/agentic-ops-token-mix?lang=en Fri, 28 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT Same ~20B volume: MiniMax + Grok Heavy at ~US$149/mo versus ~US$46k on Claude Sonnet 5 API, ~US$92k on GPT-5.6 Sol, ~US$115k on Opus 5. Brenon Araujo https://brenon.cloud/blog/git-meta-harness https://brenon.cloud/blog/git-meta-harness?lang=en Thu, 27 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT We designed the loop. Then we needed the loop itself to be a product — dynamic personas, harness memory, GitHub as substrate. Independently, Stanford IRIS published Meta-Harness. Same name, complementary layers, Hermes underneath, and two real deployments including Clinicsy.

What Authentik is, how it compares to other open-source IdPs, and how OIDC carries that session to each console. Brenon Araujo https://brenon.cloud/blog/tibiapixel https://brenon.cloud/blog/tibiapixel?lang=en Mon, 17 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT It started as a local study of neural nets and reinforcement learning. It became a browser Tibia-like where humans and LLM agents share one shard, with tools, memory, and voice. Open and reproducible. Brenon Araujo https://brenon.cloud/blog/uptime-kuma-on-akash https://brenon.cloud/blog/uptime-kuma-on-akash?lang=en Sun, 16 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT Uptime Kuma redeployed on Akash: audited provider at 99.99% availability, 0.5 CPU and 256 MB (the minimum Kuma actually needs), persistent disk, and the real SDL. Brenon Araujo https://brenon.cloud/blog/audio-apis-on-our-cluster https://brenon.cloud/blog/audio-apis-on-our-cluster?lang=en Sat, 15 Aug 2026 00:00:00 GMT We put Whisper and Chatterbox on the Brenon.Cloud Swarm and opened the APIs at ai.brenon.cloud. The models are open, the cluster was already there, and the rest is the same path we already use for everything else. Brenon Araujo https://brenon.cloud/blog/agentic-loop-engineering https://brenon.cloud/blog/agentic-loop-engineering?lang=en Wed, 15 Jul 2026 00:00:00 GMT A deep dive into SDD, SPDD, BMAD, harness architecture, and loop engineering — and how we use Hermes, Kanban, GitHub, MiniMax M3, and GLM 5.2 to ship software autonomously. Brenon Araujo https://brenon.cloud/blog/akash-network-cloud-marketplace https://brenon.cloud/blog/akash-network-cloud-marketplace?lang=en Wed, 20 May 2026 00:00:00 GMT Learn how Akash creates a decentralized compute marketplace on Kubernetes, democratizing lower-cost access, privacy, and idle infrastructure capacity.

Connect a wallet, swap a minimum of 10 AKT for ACTs, and ship to a decentralized cloud — no email, no credit card, no KYC.
