# Arr Stack + Local AI

A dockerized media automation stack (VPN-locked torrents + Jellyfin) **plus** a
local AI stack built around
[Ternary-Bonsai-27B](https://huggingface.co/prism-ml/Ternary-Bonsai-27B-gguf)
for the **Beelink SER5 PRO** (Ryzen 7 7735HS + Radeon 680M).

## Media stack

### 1. Prepare

```bash
cd arr-stack
cp .env.example .env          # then edit .env (PUID/PGID, TZ, LAN_SUBNET)
```

Drop your provider's WireGuard config into `wireguard/wg0.conf` and make the
two edits described in `wireguard/wg0.conf.example`:

1. **Remove IPv6 addresses** from `Address` / `DNS` lines.
2. **Endpoint must be an IP**, not a hostname (`dig +short your.endpoint.host`).

Create the data tree (already scaffolded here; on a fresh host run):

```bash
mkdir -p config data/media/{movies,tv,music} data/torrents/{movies,tv,music}
```

The layout uses a **single `/data` share** — this lets the Arrs hardlink
finished downloads into the media library instantly (no copy, no double disk
usage, torrent keeps seeding):

```
data/
├── media/            <- Jellyfin libraries
│   ├── movies/
│   ├── tv/
│   └── music/
└── torrents/         <- qBittorrent downloads here
    ├── movies/
    ├── tv/
    └── music/
```

### 2. Start media

```bash
docker compose up -d
docker compose ps            # gluetun must show (healthy)
docker logs -f gluetun       # wait for "You are running on the VPN" style line
```

qBittorrent waits for gluetun to be healthy before starting.

### 3. Verify the lockdown (do this once)

```bash
# IP seen from inside qBittorrent — must be your VPN's IP, NOT your home IP:
docker exec qbittorrent curl -s ifconfig.me && echo

# Your real IP for comparison:
curl -s ifconfig.me && echo

# Killswitch test — kill the tunnel, traffic must die with it:
docker exec gluetun sh -c "ip link del tun0" 2>/dev/null
docker exec qbittorrent curl -s --max-time 8 ifconfig.me || echo "NO CONNECTIVITY (good)"
docker restart gluetun       # bring the tunnel back
```

Belt-and-suspenders extra: in qBittorrent → Tools → Options → Advanced, set
**Network interface** to `tun0`. Even in a hypothetical gluetun failure,
qBittorrent itself would then refuse to use any other interface.

### 4. Wire it together

**qBittorrent** (http://host:8080 — default user `admin`, temporary password
is printed in `docker logs qbittorrent` on first start; change it):

- Options → Downloads → Default Save Path: `/data/torrents`
- Create categories `movies` → `/data/torrents/movies` and `tv` → `/data/torrents/tv`

**Prowlarr** (http://host:9696):

- Add your indexers under *Indexers*.
- *Settings → Apps*: add Sonarr (`http://sonarr:8989`), Radarr
  (`http://radarr:7878`), each with its API key (found in the Arr under
  *Settings → General*). Indexers sync automatically from then on.

**Sonarr & Radarr** — *Settings → Download Clients* → add qBittorrent:

- Host: `gluetun`, Port: `8080`, your qBittorrent credentials
- Category: `tv` (Sonarr) / `movies` (Radarr)
- *Settings → Media Management*: root folder `/data/media/tv` or
  `/data/media/movies`; **enable hardlinks** (on by default with this layout)

**Bazarr**: point it at Sonarr/Radarr (`http://sonarr:8989` /
`http://radarr:7878` + API keys); paths `/data/media/tv`, `/data/media/movies`.

**Lidarr** (http://host:8686) — music, same patterns as Sonarr/Radarr:

- *Settings → Download Clients* → qBittorrent: Host `gluetun`, Port `8080`
- Category: `music` → qBittorrent save path `/data/torrents/music`
- *Settings → Media Management*: root folder `/data/media/music`; hardlinks on
- In **Prowlarr** → *Settings → Apps*: add Lidarr (`http://lidarr:8686` + API key)

**Jellyfin** (http://host:8096): add libraries → Movies: `/data/media/movies`,
Shows: `/data/media/tv`, Music: `/data/media/music`. Its media mount is
read-only; enable trickplay/metadata into `/config` (the default) — it never
writes to your media.

### 5. Optional: provider port forwarding

If your VPN provider gives you a forwarded port (AirVPN, ProtonVPN, …),
inbound peers can reach you and swarm connectivity improves:

1. Uncomment `FIREWALL_VPN_INPUT_PORTS` in the compose file and set the port.
2. For providers with a NAT-PMP API also uncomment `VPN_PORT_FORWARDING` and
   `VPN_PORT_FORWARDING_PROVIDER`.
3. Set the same port as qBittorrent's listening port (Options → Connection)
   and disable UPnP/NAT-PMP inside qBittorrent.

Never publish qBittorrent's BitTorrent port on the host — inbound connections
must arrive through the tunnel only.

## Local AI stack

### Why this design (and not plain Ollama)

| Piece | Choice | Reason |
|-------|--------|--------|
| Model | **Ternary-Bonsai-27B** (~7.2 GB Q2_0) | ~95% of FP16 quality at laptop footprint; strong coding/math |
| Runtime | **PrismML llama.cpp** (`llama-server`) | Custom Q2_0 g128 kernels — stock Ollama / mainline won't load the default GGUF |
| Hardware | **SER5 PRO** Ryzen 7 7735HS + Radeon 680M | No NVIDIA → default is **CPU**; optional Vulkan for the iGPU |
| Web UI | **Open WebUI** | Chat, document RAG, web search, tools, code interpreter |
| Search | **SearXNG** | Keyless private search for RAG |
| Coding | **OpenHands** (optional profile) + `/workspace` mount | Agent that edits files / runs commands in a sandbox |

**Memory ballpark** (model alone, from Prism docs): ~8 GB at 4–10k context, ~14 GB at 100k with FP16 KV. With Arr + Jellyfin running, **32 GB system RAM is the practical minimum**; **64 GB** is comfortable for long context + media.

### 1. Download the model (~7.2 GB)

```bash
# Recommended (resume-friendly):
pip install -U "huggingface_hub[cli]"

./scripts/download-bonsai-model.sh
# files land in ./models/bonsai/
```

Optional:

```bash
DOWNLOAD_DRAFTER=1 ./scripts/download-bonsai-model.sh   # speculative decoding pack (CUDA-oriented)
```

### 2. Start AI services

```bash
# Build Prism llama-server image + start UI + search
docker compose up -d --build bonsai open-webui searxng

# Health
curl -s http://localhost:8081/health
curl -s http://localhost:8081/v1/models
```

Open **http://host:3000** — create the admin account on first visit.
Open WebUI is pre-pointed at `http://bonsai:8080/v1` (see compose env).

### 3. RAG (documents & local files)

**Upload / Knowledge collections (best for docs)**

1. Open WebUI → **Workspace → Knowledge** → create a collection.
2. Upload PDFs, markdown, code, notes.
3. In a chat, attach the collection (or enable it on the model).

Embeddings download into the Open WebUI volume on first use (local, no cloud).

**Whole folders via bind-mount**

`AI_WORKSPACE_DIR` (default `./workspace`) is mounted **read-only** at
`/workspace` inside Open WebUI. Put projects/notes there, or point
`.env` at your real code tree:

```bash
# .env
AI_WORKSPACE_DIR=/home/you/src
```

Then ask e.g. “Summarize the layout of `/workspace/my-app`” after adding those
paths to a Knowledge collection, or use tools/OpenHands for active editing.

**Web RAG**

SearXNG is wired as the search engine (`ENABLE_RAG_WEB_SEARCH=true`). In chat
settings enable web search when you want live results.

### 4. Coding helpers

| Tool | How | Best for |
|------|-----|----------|
| **Open WebUI + Knowledge** | Upload repo docs / mount `/workspace` | Q&A over code, design docs |
| **Open WebUI code interpreter** | Enabled in compose | Python plots, quick analysis |
| **OpenHands** | `docker compose --profile coding up -d openhands` | Multi-step “change the code / run tests” agents |
| **Continue / Aider / Cursor** (host apps) | Base URL `http://host:8081/v1`, any API key | IDE-native completion & edits |

**OpenHands** (http://host:3001):

1. Settings → enable Advanced.
2. Custom model: `openai/<id-from-/v1/models>` (or keep the pre-set env).
3. Base URL: `http://bonsai:8080/v1` (from inside Docker) or `http://host.docker.internal:8081/v1`.
4. API key: same as `OPENAI_API_KEY` in `.env`.
5. Workspace is `${AI_WORKSPACE_DIR}` — agent sandboxes use Docker socket.

> Note: Prism lists long-horizon multi-file agentic coding as a weaker area of
> this 27B release; it is still very usable for review, refactors, and smaller
> tasks. Prefer shorter goals and verify with tests.

### 5. Performance knobs (SER5 PRO)

```bash
# .env examples

# Leave headroom for Jellyfin/Arrs on a 16-thread 7735HS
BONSAI_THREADS=12

# Longer context for big repos / PDFs (needs RAM)
BONSAI_CTX=32768
BONSAI_KV4=1          # 4-bit KV cache if you approach OOM

# Optional: Vulkan offload on Radeon 680M
BONSAI_BACKEND=vulkan
BONSAI_NGL=99
# then uncomment devices/group_add under bonsai in docker-compose.yml
docker compose build --no-cache bonsai && docker compose up -d bonsai
```

Start with **CPU (`BONSAI_NGL=0`)**. iGPU Vulkan can help but shares system
RAM and is more fiddly in Docker; measure both with a short prompt if you care.

Recommended generation defaults (already set): `temp=0.7`, `top_p=0.95`,
`top_k=20`. The 27B is a **thinking** model — answers may include a reasoning
block; that is expected and improves quality.

### 6. Quick API smoke test

```bash
curl -s http://localhost:8081/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-local-bonsai" \
  -d '{
    "model": "local",
    "messages": [{"role":"user","content":"Say hello in one short sentence."}],
    "temperature": 0.7,
    "max_tokens": 128
  }'
```

(`model` can be any string or the id returned by `/v1/models` — llama-server is
usually lenient.)

### 7. What not to do

- Do **not** route bonsai/open-webui through gluetun — inference is local and
  the VPN killswitch would only add pain.
- Do **not** expect stock Ollama to load `Ternary-Bonsai-27B-Q2_0.gguf` without
  Prism’s kernels (use our `bonsai` service).
- Keep Open WebUI / OpenHands off the public internet; use LAN + auth (`WEBUI_AUTH=true`).

## Notes

- All app-to-app traffic uses container DNS names (`gluetun`, `sonarr`,
  `bonsai`, …) on the internal `arr-net` bridge; only WebUIs are exposed to
  your LAN.
- Update media stack with `docker compose pull && docker compose up -d`.
  Gluetun is pinned to major version `v3` — read its release notes before
  jumping majors.
- Rebuild AI runtime after Prism release bumps: edit `PRISM_RELEASE` in
  `ai/Dockerfile`, then `docker compose build --no-cache bonsai`.
- Optional media extras (commented in compose): Jellyseerr.
- Optional coding profile: `docker compose --profile coding up -d openhands`.
