## What it is
Stakpak is an open-source Rust CLI and autonomous agent that runs on your machines 24/7 to keep applications running, handling tasks like auto-healing, certificate renewal, and cost cleanup. It combines an interactive terminal TUI with a background 'autopilot' service, using secret substitution and network-level guardrails so LLMs can operate on infrastructure without exposing credentials.

## Use cases
- automatically heal failing production apps and report to slack
- debug kubernetes and generate infrastructure code with an ai agent
- renew expiring tls certificates before they cause outages
- find idle cloud resources and cut monthly infrastructure costs
- run a devops agent on my servers without exposing secrets to the llm
- automate deployments and ci/cd configuration from the terminal

## When to choose
- you want a paaS-like autonomous operator for your own machines without vendor lock-in
- you need llm-driven devops automation with strict secret redaction and network guardrails
- you want 24/7 self-healing, cert renewal, and cost watchdogs running as a background service

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose coding agent that writes application code
- you require fully hands-off automation without any human approval gates
- your infrastructure is entirely managed by a cloud provider's own tooling
