My personal homelab monorepo for local-first AI and self-hosted infrastructure. This isn't a single product—it's a collection of working experiments, configs, and glue code that I actually run at home.
Instead of one complex setup, each folder here is its own mini-project. Some are production-ready (my Neovim config), others are active experiments (the home automation stack), and some are just CSS tweaks for the media server.
localnest/— The main vision: local AI workflows, device orchestration, and smart home logic using n8n, Redis, and FAISS. This is where the "intelligent house" stuff lives. [Work in progress]localnest.nvim/— My Neovim configuration with local LLM integration for coding assistance without cloud dependencies.localnest.tv/— Custom CSS themes and tweaks for my media server.docs/— Random notes, architecture diagrams, and "lessons learned" from breaking things.
- Local-first by default: If it can run on my hardware, it does. No cloud middleware tax.
- Modular independence: Each directory stands alone. Don't want the home automation bits? Just grab the Neovim config.
- Documented chaos: This is a real homelab. Things break, get rewritten, and sometimes require a tactical reset (old habits from the Army die hard).

Active development / perpetual beta. I iterate on this while streaming or between dive contracts. Expect force pushes, partial documentation, and the occasional "TODO: fix this properly" comment.
