Welcome to Self-Host Hub.
This community is for people building automation infrastructure they own — self-hosted workflows, local AI, and systems you run for yourself or your clients.
📋 ROADMAP (Weekly)
Directional focus areas, not delivery guarantees.
- 2/9/26 Faceless video workflow end-to-end: script generation → image generation → audio → video assembly, TTS provider integration (ElevenLabs, OpenAI TTS)
- 2/16/26 Debug mode: inline step editing, input/output inspection, continue/skip/stop
- 2/23/26 Alpha release
📅 UPDATES
- 2/8/26 JSON string extraction fix completed. Faceless video pipeline in progress. Deployment testing underway.
- 1/22/26 Direction locked: deterministic workflows, structured AI, production-safe execution.
- 1/10/26 Community focus narrowed to real deployments and operational tradeoffs.
(Updates appended as work progresses.)
WHAT IS STUDIO
Self-hosted workflow automation platform for AI content pipelines. You own the infrastructure, pick your providers, keep your keys. Custom workflow engine — no n8n, no Temporal, no off-the-shelf runtime. Full control over execution, debugging, and step-level data flow.
Four pieces:
- App (API + web UI)
- Workers (general, video/FFmpeg, ComfyUI/GPU)
- Catalog (installable provider/service packages)
- Marketplace (templates + premium token-gated packages)
Deploy however you want: single Docker container, Docker Compose, Kubernetes, RunPod, VPS + Cloudflare Tunnel, or hybrid GPU setups over Tailscale.
✅ DONE
- Custom workflow engine with step-by-step execution, pause/resume, approval gates
- Multi-tenant org system with role-based access
- Provider/service architecture — install only what you need
- 10+ provider integrations (Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, Google, Slack, Notion, Airtable, telegram, trallo, typeform, ComfyUI, JSON2Video, etc.)
- ComfyUI GPU worker with model management
- Video worker (FFmpeg transcoding, Whisper STT)
- Real-time WebSocket updates during workflow runs
- 7 Docker images covering every deployment scenario
- Marketplace backend with token-gated access
- Full documentation suite
- 2/1/26 Deployment testing across all 7 Docker scenarios (single container, Compose, K8s, RunPod, VPS + Cloudflare Tunnel, hybrid GPU, all-in-one)
🛠️ TODO
- Faceless video workflow — script → images → TTS → video → upload
- Debug mode — inline editing, I/O inspection, execution controls
- Social media posting (TikTok, Youtube, Instagram, etc.)
- LLM license detection (flag models with commercial restrictions)
- Form builder for workflow inputs (shareable public URLs)
- AI-assisted workflow scaffolding (natural language → draft structure)
