# foreman — Architecture Decision Records
`foreman` is a small daemon that fronts **one** Ollama target. It turns a single
Ollama instance into a queued, observable job endpoint: it polls the target's
installed models, serializes jobs through the target (managing model swaps),
assigns every job an ID, and reports progress + artifacts via webhooks. It also
ships a Go client so the target is trivial to use from `go-llm`.
It is the deliberately pared-down successor to `peon-overseer`. One daemon, one
worker, one queue. No distributed dispatch, no leases, no fair queueing.
## Index
| ADR | Title | Status |
|-----|-------|--------|
| 0001 | One daemon per Ollama target | Accepted |
| 0002 | Daemon placement and remote target configuration | Accepted |
| 0003 | API surface: native Ollama passthrough vs OpenAI-compat | Accepted |
| 0004 | Async job surface, job IDs, and queued execution | Accepted |
| 0005 | Webhook state-update protocol | Accepted |
| 0006 | Artifact handling and transport | Accepted |
| 0007 | Model inventory polling and discovery | Accepted |
| 0008 | Durable SQLite-backed queue | Accepted |
| 0009 | Single-worker serialization and drain-by-model scheduling | Accepted |
| 0010 | Authentication and security boundary | Accepted |
| 0011 | Go client library and go-llm integration | Accepted |
| 0012 | Streaming support | Accepted |
ADR-0003 was resolved in favor of **native Ollama** as the v1 surface: foreman is,
on the wire, a private authenticated Ollama deployment, so `go-llm` integrates via
a thin `llm.Foreman(baseURL, token)` constructor that delegates to the existing
ollama provider (ADR-0011). OpenAI-compat `/v1` is deferred.
These ADRs refine the API/integration sections of the project `CLAUDE.md`. The
queue, single-worker, drain-by-model, and security guardrails carry forward
unchanged.

Each ADR: Status, Context, Decision, Consequences, and Alternatives where useful.
One decision per file. Append new ADRs; supersede rather than rewrite.
