Starts the already-loaded localhost/sencho:release-scan image headless on the runner and polls /api/health for up to 30 seconds. Catches entrypoint regressions, native module ABI breakage, and first-boot crashes on the exact artifact that the multi-arch push step below will republish moments later. Placed BEFORE the build-push step so a smoke failure does not move the `latest`, semver, or minor tags on Docker Hub. The image reused here is the same amd64 artifact Trivy scanned a step earlier, so there is no extra build or pull on the critical path. The container is started without --rm so that docker logs in the trap can surface the stack trace when the container crashes during boot; the trap force-removes it after capturing logs whether it exited or is still running. /api/health is public and returns before any DB, JWT, or Docker socket work, so no env vars, volume mounts, or bind mounts are required for the smoke test to be a valid signal that the process booted and the HTTP server is accepting connections.

- App Store - One-click deployment from LinuxServer.io templates with editable ports, volumes, and environment variables
- Resource Hub - Browse and manage images, volumes, and networks with managed/external/unused classification
- Live Logs - Aggregated real-time log streaming across all containers with search and filtering
- Dashboard - Container stats, CPU/RAM metrics, health checks, and image update notifications
- Alerts - Configurable threshold alerts for CPU, RAM, and disk usage
- Terminal - In-browser host console and container exec via WebSocket
Quick Start
services:
sencho:
image: saelix/sencho:latest
container_name: sencho
restart: unless-stopped
ports:
- "3000:3000"
volumes:
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
- ./data:/app/data
# 1:1 Compose Path Rule: host path MUST match container path
- /opt/docker:/opt/docker
environment:
- COMPOSE_DIR=/opt/docker
- DATA_DIR=/app/data
docker compose up -d
Then open http://your-server:3000 and create your admin account.
See the full documentation for configuration details, multi-node setup, and more.
Development
# Backend (Express + TypeScript)
cd backend && npm install && npm run dev
# Frontend (React + Vite)
cd frontend && npm install && npm run dev
The frontend dev server proxies /api requests to the backend on port 3000.
