tools.hartle.techOur hands-on tool notes.

Quick-starts, cheatsheets, gotchas, and lessons-learned for the tools, libraries, and platforms HARTLE.TECH uses across our projects. Written from experience — not a re-publication of upstream docs.

What lives where

Each tool section follows the same shape:

URLWhat's there
/<tool>/Tool landing — what is this thing + why we use it + key links
/<tool>/docs/Public docs — quick-start, cheatsheets, our hands-on findings
/<tool>/wiki/Internal wiki — tailnet-only candid notes (gotchas with internal context)

If you can see /wiki/ links, you're on the HARTLE.TECH tailnet. Otherwise they 404 — by design, enforced at the Caddy layer.

Why this exists

We use a lot of tools across NearTrace, Nosferato, DumpSock, Medusa, hartle.tech-terraform, and others. When we figure out the actually-working pattern for one, we want it written down once — and findable next time.

Rule: what's here is our experience. The upstream tool's docs are authoritative for the tool itself; we link to them for canonical reference. Our value-add is the "we stumbled onto X in project Y; this is how we got around it" layer.
