Renewal asks Open Collective for a live recurring contribution on the sweep's schedule, anchored to the member's join day rather than the payment date (OC aligns charges onto a common billing day). One reminder, then a grace window, then deactivate by removing group access while keeping the account. Member-facing summary: co-op/support#44.
Inference Cooperative — operator documentation
Operator- and maintainer-facing documentation for the Inference Cooperative. This is the material that describes how the co-op's infrastructure is run — access tokens, scheduled tasks, maintenance procedures, outage write-ups, and the server-migration record — as opposed to the member-facing documentation published at https://docs.inference.coop/.
Anyone may read it; operators are the audience. Comment, or open an issue, where something looks wrong — that review is the point.
This repository is deliberately not a website
Unlike co-op/docs, nothing here is built or published by MkDocs. The
repository is git-only: it is meant to be browsed, searched, and diffed in
Gitea, or read from a clone. Every page carries operational detail (token
rotation, deploy flows, failure modes) that belongs to operators rather than to
members, so it is kept out of the public documentation site on purpose.

What our model providers charge, and when it changed |
The migration material
migration/ holds the record of moving Cloudron to its new server: the plan
(cloudron-server-migration.md),
the record-by-record cutover sheet
(dns-change-sheet.md), and the captured
pre-migration state the restore checker compares against
(migration-before-state.json).
The migration is complete (2026-11-02) — this material is kept as the
record of how it was planned and done, not as pending work. Current
operational procedure lives in the co-op's cloudron-ops skill; the
member-facing description lives in co-op/docs/infrastructure.md.
Read the DNS sheet with this in mind
Its record counts cannot be trusted until reconciled against the registrar's panel. The zone is wildcarded, so any hostname resolves — a name that answers proves nothing about whether a record exists. At least two listed records turned out not to exist, and the real record inventory is only visible in the registrar's own list.
No secrets here
Audited 2026-11-01, including the full commit history: no credentials, tokens, keys, member emails or account identifiers. Where a runbook needs a credential to exist (a backup passphrase, an S3 key), it records where the credential is held, never the credential.
Where operators look
- Member-facing docs live in
co-op/docsand are published at https://docs.inference.coop/. - The member-facing docs link here from their "For operators" section.
History
The operator runbook, maintenance pages and incident write-ups were moved here
from co-op/docs, where they were previously published on the member-facing
site. The migration material came from co-op/runbooks (now archived), and was
brought across with its commit history intact via an unrelated-histories merge.
