 - **Port conflict detection (2026-07-05)**: All 3 GPU wrappers now detect ghost processes squatting port 8080 before starting. `.8` and `.110` use inline pre-start check in `llama-wrapper.sh`; `.15` uses `/usr/local/bin/port-cleanup.sh` ExecStartPre. Replaces the blanket `pkill -9 -x llama-server` on .15 which would kill ALL llama-server instances regardless of port. Ghost detection was the root cause of .8 crash-looping for 27+ restarts (stale pid 25836 squatting 8080 after OOM kill).
 - **Strix Halo thermal safeguard (2026-07-02)**: `strix-server.service` has `-n 8192` (hard generation cap per request). Without it, `--predict` defaults to -1 (infinity) — a runaway request from .123 (Mumuni) decoded 39,868 tokens over 24 min, pushing Tctl to 98°C (crit 89.8°C) and throttling 70→29 t/s. The cap bounds worst-case generation to ~5 min. Do NOT remove `-n` without a replacement ceiling. Sustained load hits ~84°C even at 92s; the APU is fanless/low-flow. Clients MUST also set `max_tokens`.
 - **Port 8080 firewall**: amdpve iptables restricts 8080 to 192.168.68.116 (LiteLLM/router host) only. All inbound connections are from .116 (LiteLLM proxied via nginx). Localhost curls hang (SYN dropped). Always test from .116.

+Key notes:
+- All models use direct GPU routing via LiteLLM (`api_key: not-needed`). Router (port 9000) is deprecated and NOT in the inference path.
+- Stable aliases (gpu-dense, gpu-light, strix-moe) from gpu-fleet are the canonical names for agent configs. Model-specific names still work but are deprecated.
+- RTX 5070 tok/s is 2.3x faster than RTX 3090 for its model — gpu-light is the fastest endpoint. Route vision/web/light work there first.
+- Strix Halo is 62.9 tok/s (89% of 70.5 baseline) — below optimal but stable. Check for competing workloads.
+- RTX 3090 VRAM at 88% — within role-appropriate range (role = heavy reasoning, needs the headroom).
+- RTX 5070 VRAM at 83% — role-appropriate for vision/web (smaller batch sizes).

+## Lessons Learned (2026-07-12, Updated 2026-07-18)
 
 ### L1: API Key Standardization Is Critical
 - All GPU llama-servers MUST use the same api-key as the LiteLLM config.
 - RTX 5070 had `--api-key sk-loc...5678` while LiteLLM sent `not-needed`.
-  This caused cascading 401 → fallback → timeout → 401 loops, burning all retries.
-- **Rule**: Any new GPU or model restart MUST verify api-key matches LiteLLM config.
+  This caused cascading 401 → fallback → timeout → 401 loops.
+- **Rule**: Any new GPU or model restart MUST verify api-key matches LiteLLM config (`not-needed` for direct routing).
 
 ### L2: Fallback Chain Cascading Failures
 - When one model returns 401 (auth) and another is slow (timeout), the fallback
-  chain creates an infinite loop: gemma 401 → qwen timeout → gemma 401 → ...
+  chain creates an infinite loop.
 - **Rule**: If a model returns 401 (auth error), do NOT fall back to it again.
   Mark it as permanently failed for this request.
 
 ### L3: Verify Running State, Not Docs
-- RTX 3090 was documented at 128K context. Actually running at 256K.
-- Parallel count wrong (docs said 2, actual is 1 on RTX 3090).
+- RTX 3090 was documented at 128K context. Running at 128K (verified 2026-07-18).
+- Parallel count: 1 on both RTX 3090 and RTX 5070 (matches docs for current models).
 - **Rule**: Before making decisions, check `/proc/PID/cmdline` on GPU hosts.
 
 ### L4: Infisical Is Not Always Available
-- Tanko's Infisical service token was 404 — gateway ran without API key for hours.
-- **Rule**: Always keep a local `.env` fallback for `LITELLM_API_KEY`.
-- Contract hermes-config-template Rule 3 updated.
+- Keep a local `.env` fallback for `LITELLM_API_KEY`.
+- **Rule**: Always verify credential source is reachable before relying on it.
 
-### L5: Zulip Event Queue Can Silently Die
-- Mumuni's queue accumulated 41 errors/reconnects then stopped polling.
-  Gateway was running but ignoring all messages.
-- **Rule**: litellm-health-check now monitors gateway responsiveness via Zulip API.
+### L5: GPU Monitor Response Size Can Cause Self-Heal Crash
+- gpu-self-heal crashed with KeyboardInterrupt during json.loads() of 20MB response.
+- Root cause: router poll returns accumulated data → cache balloons.
+- **Rule**: Self-heal must enforce a read timeout AND max response size on every poll.
+  If monitor response > 1MB, log a warning and skip the cycle rather than crashing.
+
+### L6: Stable Aliases Replace Model Names
+- gpu-fleet introduced stable aliases (strix-moe, gpu-dense, gpu-light) on 2026-07-15.
+- Self-heal must use aliases for reporting and alerting, not model-specific names.
+- **Rule**: All alert messages and KG nodes use the stable alias as the GPU identifier.

+- Vision and web_extract use `gpu-light` (stable alias, RTX 5070 — 12GB, vision-optimized)
+- Compression now uses `syslog-auto` (switched from `strix-moe` 2026-07-18) to distribute
+  compression load across the weighted pool (55% RTX 3090, 30% Strix Halo, 15% RTX 5070).
+  This relieves Strix Halo pressure while keeping compression functional on all GPUs.
+- **`syslog-auto` is the valid compression model** — LiteLLM serves it as the weighted pool.
+  Old configs with `strix-moe` for compression should be updated to `syslog-auto`.
 - All auxiliary services MUST use identical routing:
   - `base_url: http://192.168.68.116/v1`  (Rule 5: `/v1`, NOT `/litellm/v1`)
   - `api_key_env: LITELLM_API_KEY`
-- **Do NOT use `syslog-auto`** for auxiliary tasks — it routes unpredictably
-- **Compression on Strix Halo**: The strix-moe alias routes to Strix Halo
-  (64GB UMA, 128K context) — the designated compression GPU. This frees the
-  RTX 5070 for vision and web search, and the RTX 3090 for heavy reasoning.
+- **Compression via syslog-auto**: Routes through the weighted pool. Strix Halo still handles
+  ~30% of compression calls (at 60 RPM via pool vs 40 RPM direct), but the bulk (55%)
+  goes to RTX 3090 which has ample spare capacity.
 - The `compression:` block's `model` MUST match `auxiliary: compression: model`
 - The `compression: max_context_window: 131072` MUST match actual GPU capacity (128K)
 
-### Rule 8: GPU Workload Distribution (UPDATED 2026-07-16)
-- **RTX 3090 (24GB, 128K ctx, qwen3.6-27B-code)**: Heavy reasoning, code gen, long conversations
-- **RTX 5070 (12GB, 128K ctx, gemma-4-12b)**: Vision, web search, quick tasks, web_extract (IQ4_NL+MTP, ~65% VRAM at 128K)
-- **Strix Halo (64GB, 128K ctx, strix-moe)**: Context compression, summarization, long docs
+### Rule 8: GPU Workload Distribution (UPDATED 2026-07-18)
+- **RTX 3090 (24GB, 128K ctx, qwen3.6-27B-code)**: Heavy reasoning, code gen, long conversations — also handles ~55% of compression via syslog-auto pool
+- **RTX 5070 (12GB, 128K ctx, gemma-4-12b)**: Vision, web search, quick tasks, web_extract — handles ~15% of compression via syslog-auto pool
+- **Strix Halo (64GB, 128K ctx, qwen3.6-35B-udq4)**: Agent reasoning, compression (~30% via syslog-auto pool), fallback for other GPUs
 - Agent profiles MUST route auxiliary tasks to the correct GPU:
-  - `auxiliary.vision.model: gemma-4-12b` (RTX 5070)
-  - `auxiliary.web_extract.model: gemma-4-12b` (RTX 5070)
-  - `auxiliary.compression.model: strix-moe` (Strix Halo)
+  - `auxiliary.vision.model: gpu-light` (RTX 5070)
+  - `auxiliary.web_extract.model: gpu-light` (RTX 5070)
+  - `auxiliary.compression.model: syslog-auto` (distributed pool, switched from strix-moe 2026-07-18)
 - Default model (`model.default`) and custom_provider remain `syslog-auto` for auto-routing
 - For 128K context window: `threshold: 0.65` (fires at ~85K tokens)
 - Do NOT use `threshold: 0.25` — this fires at 65K, causing premature context loss

+
+## Scope
+
+Primary host is the maintenance host where apt updates apply. Docker image pulls
+span the two Docker ecosystems that run critical services. infrastructure-update
+runs the full-fleet cluster-wide wave (including its Wave 3 Docker pulls across
+all stacks/hosts); this contract runs a narrower host-level weekly pull limited
+to .116 and .7. Topology, CT IDs, and IPs are live-state fields — verify against
+`infrastructure-control.prose.md` (the source of truth) and the live system
+before mutating.
+

+| VM 109 (docker-vm) | 192.168.68.7 | SearXNG + Firecrawl + home stack (Docker host) | ⚠️ VERIFY-BEFORE-USE |
+| CT 117 (zulip) | 192.168.68.19 | Zulip (storepve bridge IP .19) | ⚠️ VERIFY-BEFORE-USE |

+
+> "Primary host" for the apt phase is the host the ops agent runs maintenance
+> from. Confirm which host that is against infrastructure-control before
+> running; do not assume. If the ops agent is containerized/CT-based, apt runs
+> inside that CT.
+
+## Requires
+
+- SSH/exec access to CT 116 (.116) and VM 109 (.7) for Docker operations
+- `apt`, `docker`, `docker compose` available on target hosts
+- LiteLLM master key available (Infisical vault, `LITELLM_API_KEY`) for health verification
+- `infrastructure-monitoring` run completed within the last 30 minutes — provides the pre-update health baseline used by the regression check
+- Writable backup directory `/tmp/infra-maintenance-backup-<date>/` on each mutated host
+- Proxmox snapshot of the primary host available (or confirmed not required) before apt phase
+
+## Continuity
+
+- Self-driven: weekly cron `0 2 * * 0` (Sunday 02:00 ET)
+- Also wakes on: explicit "infra maintenance" trigger from ops/abiba
+- Depends on `infrastructure-monitoring` for the pre-update health baseline — do not run if the last monitoring run is stale (>30 min) or RED; abort and escalate instead
+
+## Execution
+
+### Phase 0 — Preflight (snapshot/backup check + health baseline)
+
+1. **Capture health baseline** — run the `infrastructure-monitoring` postcondition checks (LiteLLM, Zulip, Gitea, SearXNG, Proxmox API) and record results as `health-baseline`. If any critical service is already down, **abort**: maintenance must not run on a degraded fleet.
+2. **Backup check** — confirm a Proxmox snapshot of the primary host exists OR `/tmp/infra-maintenance-backup-<date>/` was created this run. Snapshot critical config files into the backup dir:
+   - `/opt/inference-harness/docker-compose.yml`, `/opt/inference-harness/litellm_config.yaml` (CT 116)
+   - `/opt/search-stack/searxng/docker-compose.yml`, `/opt/search-stack/firecrawl-source/docker-compose.yaml` (VM 109)
+3. **Record image baseline** — `docker inspect --format '{{.Image}} {{.Config.Image}}' <container>` for every running container on .116 and .7; store digests in `image-baseline` so rollback can restore them.
+4. **Disk check** — `df -h` on each mutated host; abort if free space <20% (apt upgrade + image pulls need headroom).
+
+### Phase 1 — OS package updates (primary host)
+
+```bash
+# On the primary host only (VERIFY host against infrastructure-control first)
+apt update
+apt upgrade -y
+```
+
+- Capture `apt list --upgradable` before and after → store in `apt-state`.
+- If apt reports held/broken packages (`apt-get -s upgrade | grep -i broken`, or non-zero exit), **stop** — do not force. Record `held_broken` and go to rollback/escalate.
+- If `/var/run/reboot-required` exists after upgrade, flag `kernel_reboot_required: true` in `apt-state` but **do not reboot automatically** — that's a separate coordinated action (see infra-update Wave 4). Note it in the report.
+
+### Phase 2 — Docker image pulls
+
+Pull latest stable tags for every running container. Do NOT pin to `:main`/`:nightly` — use stable tags where the compose file specifies them; otherwise `latest`.
+
+```bash
+# CT 116 (.116) — inference harness
+cd /opt/inference-harness && docker compose pull
+
+# VM 109 (.7) — search + home stacks
+cd /opt/search-stack/searxng && docker compose pull
+cd /opt/search-stack/firecrawl-source && docker compose pull
+# any other running stacks on .7 (home stack, audiobookshelf) — pull per their compose files
+```
+
+- LiteLLM and SearXNG are the two explicitly required pulls; "any other running containers" means every stack with a compose file on .116 and .7.
+- Record pulled tag + digest per service in `image-baseline`.
+
+### Phase 3 — Container restarts with health verification
+
+Restart one stack at a time, verify health before moving to the next. Do not restart everything at once — a failure mid-wave must leave the rest running.
+
+```bash
+# CT 116
+cd /opt/inference-harness && docker compose up -d
+# VM 109
+cd /opt/search-stack/searxng && docker compose up -d
+cd /opt/search-stack/firecrawl-source && docker compose up -d
+```
+
+After each stack comes up, wait for health (max 120s):
+- `docker ps` shows the container `Up` (and `healthy` if a healthcheck is defined)
+- Service-specific probe passes (see Phase 4 probes)
+
+If a stack fails to come up within 120s, **stop the wave** and go to rollback for that stack only; do not proceed to the next.
+
+### Phase 4 — Post-update service verification
+
+After ALL updates (apt + images + restarts), verify every critical service is back up and matches the pre-update baseline. This is the regression gate.

+| Zulip | `curl -sf https://chat.sysloggh.net/api/v1/server_settings` | 200 OK |
+| Gitea | `curl -sf https://git.sysloggh.net/api/v1/version` | 200 OK |
+| PM2 processes | `pm2 jlist` (CT 100) | all pi-agent processes `online` |
+| Hermes gateways | SSH to Mumuni CT 114, Tanko CT 112; `systemctl is-active hermes-gateway` | `active` for each |
+
+Regression check: every service that was GREEN in `health-baseline` must still be GREEN. A service that was already RED (and caused a preflight abort) is excluded — but Phase 0 should have aborted before we got here.
+
+## Rollback Protocol
+
+If ANY service in Phase 4 fails to come back up (or regresses vs baseline):
+
+1. **Image rollback** — for the failing stack, restore the previous image:
+   ```bash
+   # Restore from recorded image-baseline digest
+   docker compose down
+   # Pin the service image to the recorded digest in compose, then recreate
+   #   image: <name>@sha256:<previous_digest>
+   docker compose pull && docker compose up -d
+   ```
+2. **APT rollback** — restore the primary host from the Proxmox snapshot taken/confirmed in Phase 0. If no snapshot, `apt install <pkg>=<old_version>` per package using apt history (`/var/log/apt/history.log`).
+3. **Config rollback** — restore configs from `/tmp/infra-maintenance-backup-<date>/`.
+4. **Re-verify** — re-run the Phase 4 probes on the rolled-back service. If still failing, escalate (do not loop — circuit breaker below).
+5. **Escalate** — send a Zulip DM to abiba + mumuni with: failing service, phase, baseline vs current, rollback actions taken, backup path.
+
+## Circuit Breaker
+
+- `max_retries: 2` per failing phase — after 2 rollback attempts on the same service, stop and escalate.
+- `window: 7200` seconds — no more than 2 retries within a 2-hour window.
+- `trip_action: escalate_to_fatal` — when tripped, escalate to fatal (abiba + mumuni + kwame) and pause; a human must clear before the next scheduled run.
+
+## Report
+
+After completion (or on abort), emit a receipt (JSON) to `~/.hermes/runs/infrastructure-maintenance/` and send a Zulip DM summary:
+
+```
+🛠 Infrastructure Maintenance — YYYY-MM-DD
+
+Phase: apt | images | restarts | verify | rollback
+Primary host: <host>
+APT: <N> packages upgraded, <M> held/broken, kernel_reboot_required=<bool>
+Images pulled: LiteLLM <tag>, SearXNG <tag>, <others>
+Services: all GREEN | <service> FAILED (rolled back)
+Baseline regression: none | <details>
+Backup: /tmp/infra-maintenance-backup-YYYYMMDD/
+Escalation: none | warning | critical | fatal
+```
+
+## Verification Postconditions
+
+- All critical services running after update (Phase 4 all GREEN)
+- No regressions from pre-update health baseline (Phase 0 baseline)
+- Docker containers on latest stable tags (`image-baseline.pulled_tag` recorded)
+- APT packages up to date with no held broken packages (`apt-state.held_broken == 0`)

+### Post-reboot sweep (known gaps)
+
+After every node reboot, run these checks:
+
+1. **CT auto-start sweep** — LXC containers sometimes don't start despite
+   `onboot: 1`. Check every CT on the rebooted node and start any left stopped:
+   ```bash
+   pct list | awk '/stopped/{print $1}' | xargs -I{} pct start {}

+2. **Zulip recovery** — When docker-vm or storepve reboots, the Zulip main
+   container loses its Docker network assignment (SIGKILL during storage
+   outage detaches it from `zulip_default` network). Run:
+   ```bash
+   ssh root@192.168.68.19 'docker rm -f zulip-zulip-1 && cd /opt/zulip && docker compose up -d'
+   ```
+   The compose restart recreates the container on the correct network.
+
+3. **docker-vm Docker daemon** — After reboot, Docker can take 3-4 minutes
+   to become `active`. The docker-proxy for Pulse (port 7655) starts early,
+   so Pulse is accessible before `docker ps` reports ready. Wait for Docker
+   before checking other stacks.

+Gateway PID should exist with uptime > 60s. **Dual-gateway detection**: if more than one `gateway run` process is found, the gateway has a collision (typically one `--force` and one `--replace` process).

+## Incident Log — 2026-07-18 Fleet-Wide Audit
+
+### Fleet State After Audit
+
+| Agent | Platform | Zulip State | Issues Found | Fix Applied |
+|-------|----------|-------------|--------------|-------------|
+| **Abiba** | pi (CT 100) | ✅ Connected | API key missing from Infisical injection; poll timeout noise | Added .env fallback; AbortError treated as empty poll (no retry); poll timeout 65s→90s |
+| **Tanko** | Hermes (CT 112) | ✅ Connected | Gateway disconnected since Jul 11; watchdog restart didn't re-establish Zulip | Full gateway restart (kill wrapper, let infisical-gateway.sh respawn) |
+| **Mumuni** | Hermes (CT 114) | ✅ Connected | No issues found | None needed |
+
+### Key Fixes Applied
+
+**1. Abiba — Credential Fallback (L4 Pattern)**
+- Root cause: `zulip.api_key` in config.yaml is `""` (expected from Infisical). Infisical vault `ABIBA_ZULIP_API_KEY` wasn't being injected into the process environment.
+- Fix: Added `.env` file fallback at `/root/.pi/agent/extensions/zulip/.env` with known-working key, sourced before the Infisical `exec`.
+- Lesson: Per L4 from gpu-self-heal, Infisical is not always available — always keep a local `.env` fallback.
+
+**2. Abiba — Poll Timeout Handling**
+- Root cause: Zulip long-poll uses `AbortSignal.timeout(65000)`. Zulip's default `event_queue_longpoll_timeout_seconds` can exceed 65s. When the signal fires, an `AbortError` is thrown and caught by the circuit breaker as a failure.
+- Fix: Caught `AbortError` inside `poll()` and return empty array (no events) instead of throwing. Extended timeout to 90s to match Zulip server default.
+- Reference: [Zulip Events System — long-poll timeout](https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/11.6/subsystems/events-system.html)
+
+**3. Tanko — Gateway Restart**
+- Root cause: Gateway process was running but Zulip platform stayed in "disconnected" state since Jul 11, 2026. The wrapper script (`infisical-gateway.sh`) restarts on crash but the gateway wasn't re-establishing Zulip on restart.
+- Fix: Killed gateway PID to trigger wrapper restart. New gateway (PID 331991) established Zulip connection successfully.

+### Fleet-Wide Zulip Health Metrics (as of 2026-07-18)
+
+| Metric | Value |
+|--------|-------|
+| Zulip server | ✅ HTTP 200 |
+| Agents connected | 3/3 (Abiba, Tanko, Mumuni) |
+| Abiba circuit breaker | CLOSED (0 failures) |
+| Abiba uptime | 2D (post-restart) |
+| Tanko gateway uptime | Ongoing |
+| Mumuni gateway uptime | Ongoing |
+| Watchdog status | ✅ Online (2D uptime) |
+
+### Hermes Agent Zulip Plugin Improvements
+
+Based on the audit, improvements that should be ported to all Hermes Zulip adapters:
+
+1. **Circuit breaker pattern** — Already in Abiba's pi extension. Hermes adapters should add the same CLOSED→OPEN→HALF_OPEN state machine with exponential backoff.
+2. **Credential fallback** — All Hermes agents use Infisical for credentials. Add `.env` local fallback per L4 pattern for `ZULIP_API_KEY`.
+3. **Queue re-registration** — Handle `BAD_EVENT_QUEUE_ID` with automatic re-registration instead of gateway restart.
+4. **Supervisor watchdog** — Hermes uses PM2 which auto-restarts on crash, but has no health-check watchdog. Add lightweight external health checks.
+5. **Streaming** — All agents have `streaming: true` in their zulip config. Verify `edit_message()` is implemented in each adapter.
