# Cloudreve

> Use the released Cloudreve alternative for the optional Files workload

Cloudreve is the default alternative inside the optional v0.16.0 `files` workload contract. It is not enabled by the initial StackSpec; select the workload deliberately after planning storage and backups.

## Released role

| Property           | v0.16.0 value                 |
| ------------------ | ----------------------------- |
| Workload           | `files`                       |
| Alternative        | `cloudreve`                   |
| Data class         | personal                      |
| Route              | generated Files service route |
| Standalone adapter | `standalone-compose`          |

## Configure

```json theme={null}
{
  "workloads": {
    "files": {
      "alternative": "cloudreve",
      "runtimeAdapterRef": "standalone-compose",
      "placement": {
        "siteRefs": ["home"],
        "nodeRefs": ["main"]
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Confirm that the resolved plan selects the intended site, node, and adapter before applying. The complete validation and rollout sequence is documented in [Private File Library](/guides/stackkits/use-cases/private-file-library).

## Operate

* Keep the primary and backup roots on storage you control.
* Create the application owner only after StackKits verification succeeds.
* Do not edit the generated Cloudreve workload bundle or Compose environment.
* Verify recovery before relying on the service for the only copy of a file.
