Mac Mini Server Scripts

Scripts for managing the ManaCore production environment on Mac Mini.

Quick Start (After System Update)

# 1. SSH into Mac Mini (from your local machine)
ssh mac-mini

# 2. Navigate to project
cd ~/projects/manacore-monorepo

# 3. Setup auto-start (only needed once)
./scripts/mac-mini/setup-autostart.sh

# 4. Check status
./scripts/mac-mini/status.sh

Scripts Overview

Script	Purpose
setup-autostart.sh	Configure automatic startup on boot (run once)
setup-stt.sh	Setup STT service (Whisper + Voxtral)
startup.sh	Main startup script (called by launchd)
health-check.sh	Check all services health
status.sh	Show full system status
restart.sh	Restart all Docker containers
stop.sh	Stop all Docker containers
deploy.sh	Pull latest images and deploy

First-Time Setup

1. Prerequisites on Mac Mini

# Install Homebrew
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"

# Install required tools
brew install cloudflared git docker

# Install Docker Desktop
# Download from: https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/

2. Clone Repository

mkdir -p ~/projects
cd ~/projects
git clone https://github.com/Memo-2023/manacore-monorepo.git
cd manacore-monorepo

3. Configure Cloudflare Tunnel

# Login to Cloudflare
cloudflared tunnel login

# The tunnel is already created (ID: bb0ea86d-8253-4a54-838b-107bb7945be9)
# Credentials should be at: ~/.cloudflared/bb0ea86d-8253-4a54-838b-107bb7945be9.json

4. Configure Environment

# Copy and edit the environment file
cp .env.macmini.example .env.macmini
nano .env.macmini

5. Enable Auto-Start

# This sets up all launchd services
./scripts/mac-mini/setup-autostart.sh

6. Configure Docker Desktop

Open Docker Desktop and enable:

• Settings > General > Start Docker Desktop when you sign in

Daily Operations

Check Status

./scripts/mac-mini/status.sh

Run Health Check

./scripts/mac-mini/health-check.sh

Restart Services

# Normal restart
./scripts/mac-mini/restart.sh

# Pull latest images and restart
./scripts/mac-mini/restart.sh --pull

# Force recreate containers
./scripts/mac-mini/restart.sh --force

View Logs

# Startup log
tail -f /tmp/manacore-startup.log

# Health check log
tail -f /tmp/manacore-health.log

# Cloudflare tunnel log
tail -f /tmp/cloudflared.log

# Specific container logs
docker logs -f mana-core-auth
docker logs -f chat-backend

Stop Services

./scripts/mac-mini/stop.sh

LaunchD Services

Three services are configured to run automatically:

Service	Label	Purpose
Cloudflared	com.cloudflare.cloudflared	Tunnel to Cloudflare
Docker Startup	com.manacore.docker-startup	Start containers on boot
Health Check	com.manacore.health-check	Check every 5 minutes
STT Service	com.manacore.stt	Speech-to-Text (Whisper + Voxtral)

Manual Service Control

# Check status
launchctl list | grep -E 'cloudflare|manacore'

# Restart a service
launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.manacore.docker-startup

# Stop a service
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.manacore.docker-startup.plist

# Start a service
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.manacore.docker-startup.plist

Troubleshooting

Docker not starting

# Check if Docker Desktop is running
docker info

# Start Docker Desktop manually
open -a Docker

Cloudflare tunnel not connecting

# Check cloudflared status
pgrep -x cloudflared

# View tunnel logs
tail -50 /tmp/cloudflared.log

# Restart tunnel
launchctl kickstart -k gui/$(id -u)/com.cloudflare.cloudflared

Container health check failing

# Check specific container
docker logs <container-name>

# Restart specific container
docker restart <container-name>

# Check database connectivity
docker exec manacore-postgres pg_isready -U postgres

Services not starting on boot

# Re-run setup
./scripts/mac-mini/setup-autostart.sh

# Check launchd errors
launchctl error <exit-code>

# Verify plist files
plutil ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.manacore.*.plist

Push Notifications (Optional)

To receive notifications when health checks fail:

1. Create a topic at ntfy.sh
2. Add to your shell profile:

   export NTFY_TOPIC=your-topic-name
   

3. Subscribe on your phone using the ntfy app

URLs

Once running, services are available at:

Service	URL
Dashboard	https://mana.how
Auth API	https://auth.mana.how
Chat	https://chat.mana.how
Chat API	https://chat-api.mana.how
Todo	https://todo.mana.how
Todo API	https://todo-api.mana.how
Calendar	https://calendar.mana.how
Calendar API	https://calendar-api.mana.how
Clock	https://clock.mana.how
Clock API	https://clock-api.mana.how
STT API	http://localhost:3020 (internal only)
SSH	ssh mac-mini (via cloudflared)

Native Services (non-Docker)

Ollama (LLM)

Ollama runs natively on Mac Mini for LLM inference:

# Check status
curl http://localhost:11434/api/tags

# List models
ollama list

# Pull a model
ollama pull gemma3:4b

STT Service (Speech-to-Text)

The STT service provides Whisper and Voxtral transcription:

# Setup (first time)
./scripts/mac-mini/setup-stt.sh

# Check status
curl http://localhost:3020/health

# Transcribe audio
curl -X POST http://localhost:3020/transcribe \
  -F "file=@audio.mp3" \
  -F "language=de"

# View logs
tail -f /tmp/manacore-stt.log

Available endpoints:

• POST /transcribe - Whisper transcription (recommended)
• POST /transcribe/voxtral - Voxtral transcription
• POST /transcribe/auto - Auto-select model
• GET /health - Health check
• GET /models - List available models
