A small, opinionated container deploy CLI + TUI for people who run a handful of services on a handful of bare-metal hosts. Sits between Kamal and Kubernetes — opinionated about the same things Kamal is, borrowing the few Kubernetes ideas that actually pay off at this scale.

yoink up                  # reconcile every service in dep order
yoink add postgres        # drop in vetted templates (postgres, redis, your own)
yoink tui                 # k9s-style dashboard, drift, logs, shell-into
yoink prune               # clean up stale containers
yoink history api         # who deployed what, when
yoink rollback api        # roll back to the previous version

The README is a pointer; the docs site is canonical.

• Is this for me? — vs. Kamal, Kubernetes, plain compose
• Five-minute first deploy — install + run
• Three deploy modes, Secure by default, Pairing with Tailscale + caddy
• Recipes — staging alongside prod, self-hosted registry, external secrets via CLI, PR-comment dry-run
• Reference — CLI / config schema / TUI keybinds
