+# Home Lab Plan
+
+## Phase 1 — establish control
+- Define production vs testing boundaries
+- Adopt a V1 remote-access model with Tailscale for admin and Cloudflare for user-facing app access
+- Define the backup strategy and restore expectations
+- Inventory the current workloads more precisely
+- Avoid adding many new services until the platform is clearer
+
+## Phase 2 — stabilize core services
+- Confirm where drive/files should live short-term
+- Confirm where photo management should live short-term
+- Decide whether Synology remains the production home for some services during transition
+- Introduce identity/access management only once the service map is clear
+
+## Phase 3 — controlled evolution
+- Evaluate Nextcloud migration path
+- Evaluate Immich migration path
+- Evaluate Authentik or equivalent
+- Review whether Proxmox should be the central app platform
+- Revisit edge/remote-access complexity and reduce overlap where possible
+
+## What Orik should track
+- infra changes
+- service locations
+- architecture decisions
+- backup changes
+- migration plans
+- risks / TODOs
+
+## Current concern
+The likely failure mode is not lack of capability; it is too many overlapping tools and unclear boundaries.
