FAQ

Is Bobby open source?

The CLI and worker runtime are open source under MIT. The hosted dashboard is closed-source for now.

Can I self-host?

Yes — point a worker at your own machine or a VPS. The dashboard has a self-hosted tier in private beta.

What languages are supported?

Anything you can build from a shell. First-class templates exist for TypeScript, Python, Go, and Rust, but the pipeline is just a script — bring whatever toolchain you like.

How are secrets handled?

Secrets are encrypted at rest with per-project keys and only decrypted inside the worker process at build time. They never leave the worker.

How do I get help?

• File an issue on GitHub
• Ask in the community chat (link in your dashboard)
• Email support if you're on a paid plan

What's on the roadmap?

The short list: native deploy targets, scheduled pipelines, and a marketplace for community pipeline steps.
