Unified hosting API with a Vercel provider - #2
Conversation
Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughTinyHosts replaces the Rust greeting template with a provider-agnostic hosting API. It adds bundles, credentials, hosting types, launch orchestration, a Vercel adapter, JSON RPC operations, and a TinyBus Hosting interface. Documentation and release verification now use TinyHosts terminology. ChangesTinyHosts hosting implementation
Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to This PR can send provider credentials and hosting operations to caller-selected endpoints, including through a public construction path that bypasses cleartext transport protection; a compromised or untrusted caller could therefore expose credentials or control hosting resources. Failed launches can also leave partially provisioned resources without automatic rollback. The endpoint trust and caller-authority issues should be fixed before merging.

77-83: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winAvoid copying the whole bundle for the deployment request.
plan.bundle.clone()duplicates every file in memory. src/bundle/mod.rs documents the bundle as the largest payload this crate moves, so this doubles peak memory for a large application.
launchborrows the plan, so removing the copy needs a small API change. Two options:
- Add a
launch_owned(host, plan: LaunchPlan)entry point that moves the bundle intoDeployRequest.- Let
DeployRequesthold a borrowed or reference-counted bundle, for exampleArc<Bundle>.Either keeps the current call site working while giving callers a path that does not copy.

In `@docs/adr/0002-a-provider-agnostic-hosting-model.md`:
- Around line 3-4: Update the ADR metadata so the Date matches the actual
acceptance date: use 2026-08-17 if accepted during the current review, or retain
2026-08-18 only if acceptance occurs on that date and change Status from
Accepted until then.
In `@docs/specs/unified-hosting-api.md`:
- Around line 20-24: Update the provider capability statement near the unified
model description to say that it covers six hosting concerns, while allowing
individual providers to return Error::Unsupported for capabilities they do not
provide. Keep the surrounding vocabulary and provider examples unchanged.
In `@README.md`:
- Around line 26-28: Update the README launch description to state that launch
runs the five hosting steps, or explicitly list the five-step sequence; do not
count analytics as part of the launch flow.
In `@src/bundle/mod.rs`:
- Around line 29-43: Update the EXCLUDED matching used by Bundle::from_dir so
all environment-file variants, including .env.development, .env.production,
.env.test, and their .local variants, are excluded rather than only exact .env
names; preserve .env.example as an allowed file if required by existing
behavior.
- Around line 47-54: Update SiteFile to keep path and contents private, expose
accessor methods, and enforce path validation during deserialization so
traversal paths such as parent-directory escapes are rejected. Change
Bundle::from_files to validate every input through TryFrom<Vec<SiteFile>> and
return Result<Self>, then document the method’s # Errors behavior and update
affected callers to handle the result.
In `@src/host/types.rs`:
- Around line 253-270: The derived Debug implementation for EnvVar exposes
plaintext values through Operation::SetEnv and LaunchPlan. Replace it with a
hand-written Debug implementation that preserves the existing fields but always
renders value as "<redacted>", while retaining the current serialization
behavior and other derived traits.
In `@src/providers/mod.rs`:
- Around line 143-157: Update connect_to to validate base_url before
constructing the provider client: allow HTTPS URLs and HTTP URLs only when the
host is loopback, while rejecting non-loopback HTTP roots with the existing
error type. Document this HTTPS requirement in the function’s API documentation
and preserve loopback HTTP support for local test mocks.
In `@src/providers/vercel/http.rs`:
- Around line 49-56: Update the Client::builder chain in Credentials::new to set
bounded request and connection timeouts using timeout and connect_timeout before
build, while preserving the existing user agent and transport-error mapping.
In `@src/providers/vercel/mod.rs`:
- Around line 499-513: Update env_targets in
src/providers/vercel/mod.rs#L499-L513 to remove duplicate environment names
regardless of whether they are adjacent, using a membership check or sorting
before deduplication; update src/providers/vercel/test.rs#L1126-L1134 to cover
[Production, Preview, Production] and assert ["production", "preview"].
Apply the same fix in `@src/providers/vercel/test.rs` around lines 1126 - 1134.
- Around line 202-209: Percent-encode the RPC-supplied identifier used by
find_site before interpolating it into the /v9/projects/{name} request path,
preserving the existing lookup behavior for valid names. Apply the same
path-segment encoding or safe-character validation to the related site, domain,
and deployment identifier interpolations in the Vercel provider.
In `@src/rpc/mod.rs`:
- Around line 35-40: Validate Request.base_url before constructing the Vercel
client and reject any explicitly provided URL whose scheme is not HTTPS,
preventing bearer credentials from being sent over HTTP. Preserve the existing
default behavior when base_url is omitted.

The Vercel provider now percent-encodes user-supplied identifiers such as site names and deployment IDs before inserting them into URL paths, preventing path traversal attacks where a crafted name like "../other/domains" could redirect a request to an unintended API route. A new `InsecureBaseUrl` error variant and validation function reject plain HTTP base URLs that target non-loopback hosts, ensuring bearer credentials are never sent in cleartext.

…ents safely The connect_to function now rejects plain HTTP URLs that point to non-loopback hosts, preventing accidental credential exposure over insecure connections. The Vercel provider's path segment encoding is tightened to allow only RFC 3986 unreserved characters, so caller-supplied identifiers cannot inject path separators or query strings into authenticated requests.

Replaces the template scaffold with the crate this repository exists for: one
API for putting a Next.js application, and the database behind it, on a real
hosting provider. Vercel is the first provider.
What changed
Hostis the whole provider-agnostic contract (sites,deployments, environment, databases, domains, analytics), with its vocabulary
in
host/types.rs.ProviderKind+connect_tomake the provider aconfiguration value.
launchruns the whole flow in the one order that works: site → databaseand its connection → environment → domains → deployment. A Next.js build
reads its environment at build time, so a database attached after the build is
invisible to the built pages; the test asserting the request sequence is what
protects that.
projects, environment variables, marketplace databases (find an installed
product that serves the kind, create the store, connect it to the project),
domains, promotion/rollback, and web analytics.
rpc— one JSON request in, one JSON result out, for the two callers inanother process. The TinyBus module (
Execute,Providers) is a thin wrapperover it, and the interface is now
ai.tinyhumans.tinyhosts.Hosting.docs/specs/unified-hosting-api.mdis the standard every provideris held to, including a mapping onto Netlify, Cloudflare, Railway, Render,
Fly.io, Amplify and a self-hosted target, and where each one does not fit. ADR

Public API changes
Everything. The template's

made against Vercel; the endpoints and payload shapes were taken from the current
REST API reference.
