A walkthrough explains how to build a personal AI infrastructure on a home network using Tailscale, Termius, LifeOS, and all of your devices, including your phone.
The setup uses:
- a phone as the entry point via Tailscale + Termius
- an always-on Mac as the control plane, notes vault, and scheduled-job runtime
- an optional GPU box for local models and heavy workloads
- an optional Linux worker for long builds and background jobs
The diagram emphasizes a zero-open-ports setup over the Tailscale tailnet, with SSH tunnels to the GPU box and Linux worker.
