01 / STATE
Separate facts from assumptions.
Keep sourced observations, accepted identity, and unresolved conflicts distinct instead of promoting incomplete data to truth.
Sqoia Labs · Research infrastructure
Operational clarity for the systems research depends on.
We’re building Neux, a supervised lifecycle workspace for lean Linux and HPC teams—bringing infrastructure facts, plans, approvals, verification, and run evidence into one controlled flow.
Neux is in private development. Current execution is simulated and non-production.
01Built for lean teams
Serious infrastructure responsibility without enterprise headcount.
02Human-authorized
Automation prepares the change. An operator controls the decision.
03Evidence by default
Plans, approvals, checks, and exceptions stay bound to the run.
The operating problem
Small infrastructure teams carry outsized operational risk.
Provisioning, rebuilding, and recovering Linux nodes often depends on scripts, tribal knowledge, and the one person who remembers why the system works.
That makes ordinary change harder to inspect, approve, repeat, and hand off. Sqoia Labs is building a narrower, more accountable operating model for teams that cannot afford ambiguity.
Our lead product
Neux™
Know the state.
Control the change.
Neux is a supervised control and evidence layer for consequential Linux infrastructure work. It is designed to make each decision inspectable before action and each result durable afterward.
02 / CONTROL
Bind approval to the exact plan.
Expose inputs, preconditions, intended diff, blast radius, verification checks, and rollback state before approval.
03 / EVIDENCE
Preserve what actually happened.
Record events, named checks, failures, unknowns, and exceptions in a durable evidence package tied to the run.
The Neux operating model
One controlled line from evidence to outcome.
Every stage has a job. No hidden promotion from “observed” to “approved.” No green check that erases an unknown.

PBS File Restore for Open OnDemand
An Open OnDemand companion application for authenticated users to browse recent Proxmox Backup Server snapshots and restore files or directories from their own archived home directory.
Dual-format recovery, designed around confinement
- Automatically detects both legacy pxar/catalog and split mpxar/ppxar snapshot formats
- PBS credentials and root filesystem access stay outside the user's Passenger process
- Requests are bound to the authenticated Unix identity and revalidated by a forced-command SSH broker
- Restores land beneath a new, non-overwriting destination in the user's home

PVE VM Provisioner for ColdFront
An administrator-operated ColdFront plugin for provisioning and maintaining Proxmox VE virtual machines from approved allocations through durable Django-Q jobs.
Provisioning that stays tied to the allocation
- Built-in IP allocation works by default; NetBox can mirror inventory when enabled
- Guest policy reconciles packages, managed files, services, allocation membership, and patching
- Browser-generated Ed25519 keys keep private material on the requester's device while cloud-init receives the public key
Sqoia Labs
Infrastructure software with operational judgment built in.
Sqoia Labs builds focused tools for the people responsible for research computing, Linux systems, and the operational work between them.
We favor narrow promises, deterministic controls, explicit human authority, and evidence that survives the handoff.
