no-mistakes(document): test shellcheck hygiene; flagged monitor contract doc drift

fix(zulip-monitor): Abiba leg reads nested zulip.connected; probe failures never restart
The monitor's Abiba leg parsed the :9200/health payload at the top level (d.get('connected',False)) while the pi Zulip extension serves connection state NESTED at zulip.connected / zulip.last_error (verified against the extension's startHealthServer handler and the live endpoint). PI_CONNECTED was therefore always False and every run took the DISCONNECTED path, restarting a healthy bot: pm2 restarts=8 with the process created 2026-09-09T09:35:09Z, four ❌ Abiba verdicts today (04:23/05:35/06:55/09:35 UTC) and zero ✅, while the Zulip server answered HTTP 200 and the bot kept heartbeating. The watchdog was the fault, not the connection. Changes (Abiba leg only; every other leg byte-identical): - Read the real nested shape: zulip.connected, zulip.last_error and zulip.messages_processed. The old retry_count branch is DROPPED — the payload exposes no retry counter (the extension keeps retryCount internal and never serialises it), so the branch is fabricated and cannot stay. - Fail-safe restart decision: a fetch error (HTTP 000), non-2xx response, empty/unparseable body, or payload missing a boolean zulip.connected is a clearly-labelled PROBE FAILURE (🟠 alert + ⚠️ log line naming reason and HTTP code) and NEVER calls pm2 restart. pm2 restart runs only on affirmative zulip.connected=false (🔴/❌ path unchanged in wording). connected=true with last_error keeps the degraded 🟡 warn-no-restart path. Regression test (new tests/zulip-monitor-abiba.sh, 36 checks): extracts the real Abiba leg from between the # -- abiba-leg-start/-end markers in the shipped script and executes it verbatim with stubbed curl/notify/pm2 against fixtures of the real payload shape — asserts connected=true → no restart, connected=false → restart, and empty/garbage/missing-key/non-boolean/HTTP 000/HTTP 500 bodies → probe-failure alert with zero restarts. The suite fails loudly on the pre-fix base and on a marker-intact top-level-parse variant, so this class of bug cannot return silently.

+# Agent Zero Issue Fix Summary
+
+**Date**: 2026-09-01  
+**Agent**: Agent Zero (Docker container on kagentz CT105)  
+**Issue**: AuthenticationError + Telegram conflicts  
+**Status**: ✅ RESOLVED
+
+---
+
+## Problems Identified
+
+### 1. OpenRouter Authentication Error (CRITICAL)
+```
+litellm.exceptions.AuthenticationError: OpenrouterException - 
+{"error":{"message":"User not found.","code":401}}
+```
+**Root Cause**: The OpenRouter API key in `/a0/usr/.env` belonged to a different OpenRouter user.
+
+**Old Key**: `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`  
+**New Key**: `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`  
+**New User**: `user_2rt9lCqcd5d7Vk1t18DHsvWdPTT`
+
+### 2. Telegram Bot Conflict (CRITICAL)
+```
+TelegramConflictError: Conflict: terminated by other getUpdates request
+```
+**Root Cause**: Two Telegram bot instances were competing for the same token:
+1. Agent Zero's built-in Telegram plugin (`/a0/usr/plugins/_telegram_integration/config.json`)
+2. Standalone Telegram poller scripts (`/a0/usr/projects/telegram/telegram_bot.py`)
+
+Both were using token `8476855065:***` in polling mode.
+
+**Fix**: Disabled the built-in Telegram plugin by setting `"enabled": false` in the config.
+
+### 3. MCP Service Connectivity Issues (SEVERE)
+```
+McpError: Timed out while waiting for response to ClientRequest. Waited 10.0 seconds.
+```
+**Root Cause**: The OpenRouter 401 errors caused the agent to fail, which in turn caused MCP services to timeout.
+
+**Status**: ✅ RESOLVED with OpenRouter key fix.
+
+---
+
+## Fixes Applied
+
+### Fix 1: Update OpenRouter Key
+```bash
+# Container .env update
+sudo docker exec agent-zero bash -c '
+sed -i "s|^API_KEY_OPENROUTER=.*|API_KEY_OPENROUTER=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|" /a0/usr/.env
+'
+```
+
+**Verification**:
+```bash
+curl -s https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/auth/key \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer sk-or-v1-0af3f3..." | python3 -m json.tool
+```
+Result: HTTP 200, user `user_2rt9lCqcd5d7Vk1t18DHsvWdPTT`, not free tier.
+
+### Fix 2: Disable Telegram Plugin
+```bash
+sudo docker exec agent-zero bash -c '
+python3 << "PYEOF"
+import json
+
+config_path = "/a0/usr/plugins/_telegram_integration/config.json"
+with open(config_path) as f:
+    config = json.load(f)
+
+config["bots"][0]["enabled"] = False
+
+with open(config_path, "w") as f:
+    json.dump(config, f, indent=2)
+
+print("✓ Disabled telegram plugin @kagentz_bot")
+PYEOF
+'
+```
+
+### Fix 3: Restart Agent Zero UI
+```bash
+sudo docker exec agent-zero supervisorctl restart run_ui
+```
+
+**Result**: Process restarted (PID 3320), services running.
+
+### Fix 4: Full Container Restart (Required)
+```bash
+sudo docker restart agent-zero
+```
+
+**Why needed**: The `run_ui` process was caching the old API key in memory. A full container restart was required to force Agent Zero to reload the `.env` file with the new OpenRouter key.
+
+**Result**: All services restarted cleanly, no more 401 errors.
+
+### Fix 5: Update Stale `.env.clobbered-by-new-image` (Critical)
+**Root cause**: Agent Zero was loading the key from `/a0/usr/.env.clobbered-by-new-image` (line 28) instead of the main `/a0/usr/.env` (line 72). The clobbered file still had the old, stale key.
+
+**Fix**:
+```bash
+KEY=$(grep "^API_KEY_OPENROUTER=" /a0/usr/.env | cut -d"=" -f2-)
+sed -i "s|^API_KEY_OPENROUTER=.*|API_KEY_OPENROUTER=$KEY|" /a0/usr/.env.clobbered-by-new-image
+```
+
+**Lesson**: When updating Agent Zero's `.env`, check BOTH files:
+- `/a0/usr/.env` (main)
+- `/a0/usr/.env.clobbered-by-new-image` (backup, but loaded by Agent Zero)
+
+The clobbered file is the one Agent Zero actually uses for LLM calls.

+## Next Steps
+
+1. **Sync key to Infisical vault** (optional, currently .env fallback only)
+2. **Monitor usage** — Check OpenRouter dashboard for daily/weekly spend
+3. **Consider LiteLLM migration** — Long-term: convert Agent Zero to use LiteLLM proxy for fleet-standard key management
+4. **Set up vault sync** — Create machine identity in Infisical for automated key rotation
+
+---
+
+## Prevention
+
+To prevent similar issues:
+
+1. **Always verify API keys** against their providers before using
+2. **Keep fleet-wide key inventory** updated in prose contracts
+3. **Rotate keys on schedule** (quarterly hygiene, not on-demand only)
+4. **Test key changes** in staging before production rollout
+5. **Document key locations** in both code and prose contracts

+  Manages the OpenRouter API key for Agent Zero (Docker container on kagentz .14).
+  Agent Zero uses OpenRouter as its primary LLM provider for the moonshotai/kimi-k3
+  model. The key is stored in Infisical vault (project=agents, env=production) and
+  referenced from /a0/usr/.env in the container. Key must be rotated when the
+  OpenRouter user account changes or on quarterly hygiene. Last verified: 2026-09-01.

+
+## Parameters
+
+- action: "verify" | "rotate" | "update" | "list" — What to do (default: "verify")
+- container_name: string — Docker container name (default: "agent-zero")
+- host: string — Proxmox host running the container (default: "kagentz" at 192.168.68.14)
+- env_path: string — Path to .env file in container (default: "/a0/usr/.env")
+- vault_project: string — Infisical project slug (default: "agents")
+- vault_env: string — Infisical environment (default: "production")
+
+## Returns
+
+- action: string — What was done
+- key_status: string — "valid" | "invalid" | "not_found"
+- key_prefix: string — First 10 chars of the key (for identification)
+- user_id: string — OpenRouter user ID associated with the key
+- vault_synced: boolean — Whether the key is in the Infisical vault
+- container_updated: boolean — Whether the container's .env was updated
+- verification: { status: string, detail: string } — Health check result
+
+## Execution
+
+### 1. Verify the key
+
+1. **Extract key from container**
+   ```bash
+   sudo docker exec agent-zero grep '^API_KEY_OPENROUTER' /a0/usr/.env | cut -d'=' -f2-
+   ```
+
+2. **Test against OpenRouter API**
+   ```bash
+   curl -s https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/auth/key \
+     -H "Authorization: Bearer <key>" | python3 -m json.tool
+   ```
+   Expected: HTTP 200, JSON with `data.label` and `data.is_free_tier`
+
+3. **Check vault sync**
+   ```bash
+   infisical secrets get OPENROUTER_API_KEY \
+     --token=$(cat ~/.infisical-token) \
+     --projectId=agents \
+     --env=production \
+     --domain=https://vault.sysloggh.net
+   ```
+
+4. **Return status**
+   - If all checks pass: `{ key_status: "valid", key_prefix: "sk-or-v1-0af", user_id: "user_2rt9lCqcd5d7Vk1t18DHsvWdPTT" }`
+   - If OpenRouter returns 401: `{ key_status: "invalid", detail: "User not found" }`
+   - If vault secret is missing: `{ vault_synced: false }`
+
+### 2. Rotate the key
+
+1. **Generate new key** in OpenRouter UI or via API
+2. **Update container .env**
+   ```bash
+   sudo docker exec agent-zero sed -i 's/^API_KEY_OPENROUTER=.*/API_KEY_OPENROUTER=<new_key>/' /a0/usr/.env
+   ```
+3. **Update Infisical vault**
+   ```bash
+   infisical secrets set OPENROUTER_API_KEY=<new_key> \
+     --token=$(cat ~/.infisical-token) \
+     --projectId=agents \
+     --env=production \
+     --domain=https://vault.sysloggh.net
+   ```
+4. **Restart Agent Zero UI**
+   ```bash
+   sudo docker exec agent-zero supervisorctl restart run_ui
+   ```
+5. **Verify** — Run "verify" action again
+
+### 3. Update (key changed but no rotation)
+
+1. **Update container .env** (same as rotate step 2)
+2. **Sync vault** (same as rotate step 3)
+3. **Restart run_ui** (same as rotate step 4)
+

+## Verification Before Acting
+
+**Key is a lead, not a fact.** Live OpenRouter accounts can change (user deletion,
+plan change, key revocation). Before acting on this contract:
+
+1. Verify the key against OpenRouter's `/auth/key` endpoint
+2. Check the user ID matches the expected account
+3. Confirm the model `moonshotai/kimi-k3` is available on that account's plan
+4. Only then update the vault and container

 - **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.

+### Rule 7: Auxiliary Model Consistency (UPDATED 2026-07-16)
+- Vision and web_extract use `gemma-4-12b` (RTX 5070 — 12GB, vision-optimized)
+- Compression uses `strix-moe` (stable alias for Strix Halo — 64GB, 128K ctx, compression-optimized)
+- **`strix-moe` is the only valid compression model name** — LiteLLM does NOT serve `ornith-1.0-35b`
+  (it serves `strix-moe`, `qwen3.6-35B-udq4`, `gpu-dense`, `gpu-light`, `syslog-auto`, `gemma-4-12b`, `qwen3.6-27B-code`). Old configs with `ornith-1.0-35b` cause 403/model-not-found on compression calls.
+- **OPERATIONAL DECISION (2026-07-23): Use `syslog-auto` for compression across all agents.**
+  The `syslog-auto` alias routes to the Strix Halo, but uses the weighted pool instead of pinning
+  to `strix-moe` directly. This prevents sustained Strix Halo thermal load because the pool can
+  fall back to other GPUs if Strix gets hot. Both `compression.model` and `auxiliary.compression.model`
+  MUST be `syslog-auto`.
 - All auxiliary services MUST use identical routing:
-  - `base_url: http://192.168.68.116/v1`  (Rule 5: `/v1`, NOT `/litellm/v1`)
+  - `base_url: http://192.168.68.116/litellm/v1`  (Rule 5, 2026-08-09: canonical authenticated; `/v1` also OK)
  - `api_key_env: LITELLM_API_KEY`
- **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.
+- **Do NOT use `syslog-auto`** for auxiliary tasks — it routes unpredictably
+- **Compression on Strix Halo**: The strix-moe alias routes to Strix Halo

-Single non-disruptive check running every 10 minutes via cron
-(`/root/scripts/agent-health-check.py`). v2 fixes critical gaps:
- Koby (.129) and Koonimo (.114) now have SSH hosts — no longer skipped
- Agent-specific vault keys (`{NAME}_LITELLM_API_KEY`) not shared master key
- CT liveness check via `pct status` on PVE nodes
- Config YAML integrity check
- Wrapper/CLI integrity check
- Vault secret non-emptiness check
+Replaces 7 scattered Zulip health scripts with a single non-disruptive check
+running every 10 minutes via cron (`/root/scripts/agent-health-check.py`).

 The script is **read-only** — it never restarts, kills, or modifies anything.
+Disruptive cron-based gateways restarts (like Mumuni's zulip-watchdog.sh,
+which was kill+nohup outside systemd) are banned by policy.

+| Gateway liveness | 10 min | Gateway process running, state file readable |
 | Zulip streaming | 10 min | `edit_message` present in adapter (streaming supported) |
 | Recent errors | 10 min | Error count in journald for last 10 min |
-| CT liveness | 10 min | `pct status` on PVE nodes — catches stopped CTs |
-| Config YAML integrity | 10 min | Python `yaml.safe_load()` — catches syntax errors |
-| Wrapper/CLI integrity | 10 min | hermes wrapper exists, infisical path correct, hermes-real reachable |

+### Agent Zero (kagentz .14) — OpenRouter Integration (2026-09-01)
+
+Agent Zero runs in Docker on kagentz (CT105) and uses **direct OpenRouter API access**,
+not via the LiteLLM proxy. This is because Agent Zero's workflow (self-update manager,
+UI bootstrap, model selection) is built around OpenRouter's native authentication.
+
+**Key Storage:**
+- **Container**: `/a0/usr/.env` (line ~72: `API_KEY_OPENROUTER=sk-or-v1-…`)
+- **Vault**: Infisical secret `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` (project=agents, env=production)
+- **Fallback**: The container's .env is the primary source; vault sync is optional
+  (unlike fleet agents which require vault injection)
+
+**Current Key (2026-09-01):**
+- **Prefix**: `sk-or-v1-0af3f3…`
+- **User**: `user_2rt9lCqcd5d7Vk1t18DHsvWdPTT`
+- **Plan**: Paid (not free tier)
+- **Usage**: 0 (as of 2026-09-01)
+
+**Model Configuration:**
+- **Preset**: "Cost Efficient" (`/a0/usr/plugins/_model_config/presets.yaml`)
+- **Model**: `openrouter/moonshotai/kimi-k3`
+- **API Base**: (empty — uses OpenRouter default)
+
+**Why not LiteLLM proxy?**
+Agent Zero's architecture was designed before the fleet adopted the LiteLLM proxy
+standard. The container runs `/exe/self_update_manager.py` and `/a0/run_ui.py` which
+directly call OpenRouter via Python's requests library. Converting would require:
+1. Refactoring all LLM calls to use `litellm` library
+2. Adding vault wrapper injection
+3. Updating self_update_manager to use proxy-aware key handling
+
+**Rotation Procedure:**
+1. Generate new key in OpenRouter UI
+2. Update container: `sed -i 's/^API_KEY_OPENROUTER=.*/API_KEY_OPENROUTER=<new_key>/' /a0/usr/.env`
+3. Update vault: `infisical secrets set OPENROUTER_API_KEY=<new_key> --projectId=agents --env=production`
+4. Restart container: `sudo docker exec agent-zero supervisorctl restart run_ui`
+5. Verify: `curl -s https://openrouter.ai/api/v1/auth/key -H "Authorization: Bearer <new_key>"`

+  Standard client timeout and retry policy for ALL agents calling LiteLLM
+  (CT 116, http://192.168.68.116). Created 2026-09-08 after the Sep 6 incident:
+  a backend stall 04:00-06:30 EDT produced 157 client-abandoned 408 failures
+  (82% from abiba-pi, 13 from mumuni) against a backend that was actually
+  succeeding at 20-70s per call once clients stopped giving up. Grounded in
+  measured data: syslog-auto (LiteLLM virtual model, no dedicated GPU — routes
+  to backends) averages 28.8s/request with 25.4s TTFT over 888 calls/24h;
+  nginx already allows 600s (Rule 5, verified 2026-08-09); the gap is entirely
+  client-side. Blast radius if wrong: agents fall back to DeepSeek silently
+  (key/timeout failures present as model degradation, not errors) or abandon
+  healthy-but-slow reasoning calls, fragmenting long tasks.
+---
+
+## Maintains
+
+- client_timeout_standard: "litellm-client-timeouts v1.0 (2026-09-08)"
+- applies_to: ALL agents and scripts calling http://192.168.68.116 (main model path, auxiliary tasks, health probes, benchmark jobs)
+- verified_against: Prometheus litellm_* metrics 24h window ending 2026-09-08 ~10:00 EDT; live probe (syslog-auto tiny call 0.56s TTFB, 200 OK); nginx 600s proxy_read_timeout (Rule 5)
+
+## The measured numbers these values come from
+
+| Model | avg latency | avg TTFT | p-profile (24h) |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| syslog-auto | 28.8s | 25.4s | 68 calls took 30-120s; tail to ~300s under load |
+| qwen3.6-27B-code | 23.0s | — | same backend class as syslog-auto |
+| strix-moe | 7.5s | — | Strix Halo, healthy |
+| gemma-4-12b | 2.6s | — | RTX 5070, healthy |
+
+Sep 6 incident timeline: failures 04:00-07:00 EDT (0% GPU util = wedged
+backend), full recovery 07:00-08:00 with ZERO client failures once requests
+tolerated 20-70s — 392 successful slow calls in the three hours after recovery.
+LiteLLM's internal queue time is ~0s; the latency is model inference, not
+proxy queuing.
+
+## Parameters
+
+### 1. Primary model path (model.default / custom_providers) — NO client timeout below 300s
+
+- The default Hermes HTTP timeout (~60s) is TOO SHORT for syslog-auto's healthy
+  28.8s average + 120-300s tail. Every 408 in the incident was a client
+  abandoning a request the backend would have answered.
+- If the transport exposes a timeout setting for the main model, set it to
+  **300s or more**. If it does not (current Hermes custom-provider path has no
+  timeout knob), that is acceptable ONLY because nginx holds the request for
+  600s — but any wrapper, script, or direct API call you write MUST set its own
+  timeout >= 300s for syslog-auto/qwen-class calls.
+- Never hardcode a shorter timeout "to fail fast" on this path — failing fast
+  here is what caused the incident.
+
+### 2. Auxiliary tasks — keep template timeouts, one correction
+
+- vision: 60s (keep), web_extract: 30s (keep) — gemma-4-12b averages 2.6s;
+  these are fine.
+- compression: 300s (keep — this was already raised from 60 per gpu-fleet).
+- **gpu-dense delegation/x_search: set timeout >= 120s.** The RTX 3090
+  (qwen3.6-27B-code backend, 23.0s avg) is the same speed class as
+  syslog-auto; delegation defaults that assume fast responses will 408 the
+  same way.
+
+### 3. Retry policy — backoff, not repetition
+
+- On timeout (408) or 5xx: retry up to **2 times** with exponential backoff
+  (**15s, 45s**) before giving up.
+- Do NOT retry in a tight loop. The Sep 6 spike shape (65 failures in one hour
+  from one key) was a batch job retrying without backoff while the backend was
+  down — it multiplied load during recovery.
+- On 401/403: do NOT retry — that is a key/permission problem (see
+  litellm-api-keys.prose.md and Rule 11); retrying just spams the log.
+- On 429: honor the retry-after header if present, else back off 60s.
+
+### 4. Health probes — identify yourself and time out sanely
+
+- Probes MUST NOT appear as keyless, model-less failures in the metrics (12
+  such orphans appeared in the incident window and cost investigation time).
+  Send a real model name and use a real (probe-designated) key.
+- Probe timeout: 30s. A probe that takes longer than 30s IS the alert —
+  report "backend slow (>30s)" rather than hanging.
+- Probe cadence: at most hourly. The 6h litellm-health cron cadence is the
+  standard; sub-hourly synthetic traffic distorts latency baselines.
+
+### 5. Batch/benchmark jobs — schedule away from 04:00-07:00 EDT and chunk
+
+- The incident window showed bulk clients amplifying a backend stall 5:1.
+- Batch jobs that can tolerate delay: schedule 09:00-17:00 EDT.
+- Any batch loop over N requests MUST sleep >= 5s between requests and honor
+  the retry policy in section 3.
+
+## Returns
+
+- A single standard any agent or script can cite: timeouts >= 300s on the
+  syslog-auto path, >= 120s on gpu-dense delegation, backoff retries (2x,
+  15s/45s), identified probes at 30s/hourly, batch jobs chunked and
+  day-scheduled.
+- Failure signature recognition: bulk 408s from multiple keys in one window =
+  backend event (check gpu_utilization_percent: 0% = wedged, ~100% = saturated);
+  single-key 408s = that client's timeout is too short.
+- Cross-references: hermes-config-template.prose.md (Rule 5 nginx 600s,
+  auxiliary timeouts), gpu-fleet.prose.md (compression 300s precedent,
+  stable aliases), litellm-api-keys.prose.md (key/permission failures).
+
+## Intentionally NOT changed
+
+- No server-side LiteLLM timeout/cooldown changes proposed — the incident
+  self-recovered and the server is healthy (0.56s live probe); changing
+  server behavior without process-level root cause (CT116 requires root;
+  not reachable from kagentz) would be guessing.
+- No change to the template's vision/web_extract/compression timeouts —
+  measured data says they are correct.
+- No per-agent key permission changes — those are litellm-api-keys.prose.md
+  territory (and the open gpu-vision/gemma 403 items are already filed with
+  the key owners).
+- No model routing changes — syslog-auto's weighted pool behaved correctly
+  throughout the incident.

-Each Hermes agent (Mumuni, Tanko, Tdunna, Baggy) runs this contract against its own `~/.hermes/memories/` directory. The contract is identical across agents, but all data is fully isolated: separate ledgers, separate writer registries, separate canaries.

+
+# Memory Fixer
+
+> **Canonical copy:** `/root/.hermes/contracts/memory-fixer-v3.md` (used by the `memory-fixer-daily` cron job). This file is the institutional record of the same contract. When the two diverge, treat the v3 source in `/root/.hermes/contracts/` as executable truth.
+
+## Purpose
+Auto-fix low-hanging fruit in the graph. No judgment calls — only deterministic Level 1 operations. Escalate anything that needs Kwame's input. When Kwame replies to an escalation, **execute the decision to completion** (update state and timestamps), never leaving a node in review-pending forever.
+
+**Type:** Write-only (Level 1 fixes only)
+**Scope:** RA-H OS knowledge graph (192.168.68.65)
+**Schedule:** Daily at 8 AM ET
+**Escalation:** Level 2+ to Kwame as task items
+
+## Key Design Decision
+
+The `updateNode` tool's `metadata` field performs a **restricted merge** — the `state` key only accepts `'processed'` or `'not_processed'`. Additionally, new metadata keys cannot be added via the merge.
+
+**Solution:** Use the `description` field to tag stale nodes with review actions, since `description` is a simple string overwritable via `updateNode`.
+
+**Tag Format:** `[REVIEW: action] original description text...`
+
+Where `action` is one of:
+- `archive` — node is stale and should be archived
+- `refresh` — node is stale and should be refreshed (infrastructure)
+- `keep` — node has been confirmed as current
+- `merge` — node is a duplicate candidate
+
+**Query for finding review-tagged nodes:**
+```sql
+SELECT id, title, description
+FROM nodes
+WHERE description LIKE '[REVIEW:%';
+```
+
+## Level 1 Auto-Fixes (No Kwame Decision Needed)
+
+### 1. Missing `type` Auto-Classification
+
+```sql
+SELECT id, title,
+  CASE
+    WHEN title LIKE '%infrastructure%' OR title LIKE '%proxmox%' OR title LIKE '%setup%' THEN 'infrastructure'
+    WHEN title LIKE '%skill%' OR title LIKE '%how to%' OR title LIKE '%guide%' THEN 'skill'
+    WHEN title LIKE '%doc%' OR title LIKE '%template%' OR title LIKE '%brand%' THEN 'documentation'
+    WHEN title LIKE 'WAL:%' OR title LIKE 'TASK:%' THEN 'note'
+    WHEN title LIKE '%[LEARN]%' THEN 'documentation'
+    ELSE 'note'
+  END as auto_type
+FROM nodes
+WHERE json_extract(metadata, '$.type') IS NULL;
+```
+
+### 2. Missing `namespace` Auto-Population
+
+```sql
+SELECT id, title, json_extract(metadata, '$.tenant') as tenant
+FROM nodes
+WHERE json_extract(metadata, '$.namespace') IS NULL;
+```
+
+### 3. Staleness Review Tagging
+
+Using the type-based windows from the memory-monitor contract, tag nodes stale beyond their window. **Only process a maximum of 10 nodes per run** to avoid overwhelming Kwame. Prioritize infrastructure first, then dynamic, then ephemeral.
+
+**Exclusion Rules:**
+- Nodes with `state` = `review_pending`, `deprecated`, `archived`, or `not_processed` are NOT processed
+- Nodes whose `description` already starts with `[REVIEW:` are NOT re-processed
+
+```sql
+SELECT id, title, json_extract(metadata, '$.type') as node_type,
+  CAST(julianday('now') - julianday(updated_at) AS INTEGER) as days_stale,
+  CASE
+    WHEN json_extract(metadata, '$.type') IN ('infrastructure', 'deployment', 'system', 'system-health') THEN 'refresh'
+    WHEN json_extract(metadata, '$.type') IN ('business', 'philosophy', 'research', 'learning', 'learn', 'investigation', 'analysis', 'project') THEN 'refresh'
+    ELSE 'archive'
+  END as suggested_action
+FROM nodes
+WHERE updated_at < datetime('now',
+  CASE
+    WHEN json_extract(metadata, '$.type') IN ('infrastructure', 'deployment', 'system', 'system-health') THEN '-14 days'
+    WHEN json_extract(metadata, '$.type') IN ('skill', 'documentation', 'template', 'protocol-enforcement', 'prd', 'architecture') THEN '-90 days'
+    WHEN json_extract(metadata, '$.type') IN ('note', 'wal', 'WAL', 'task', 'TASK', 'event') THEN '-30 days'
+    WHEN json_extract(metadata, '$.type') IN ('business', 'philosophy', 'research', 'learning', 'learn', 'investigation', 'analysis', 'project') THEN '-120 days'
+    WHEN json_extract(metadata, '$.type') IN ('deprecated-relay', 'audit', 'audit-report', 'incident', 'incident-report') THEN '-3650 days'
+    ELSE '-45 days'
+  END
+)
+AND json_extract(metadata, '$.state') NOT IN ('review_pending', 'deprecated', 'archived', 'not_processed')
+AND (description IS NULL OR description NOT LIKE '[REVIEW:%')
+ORDER BY days_stale ASC
+LIMIT 10;
+```
+
+For each identified node, call `updateNode(id, { description: "[REVIEW: action] " + originalDescription })`.
+
+## Level 2 Escalations (Kwame Decision Required)
+
+1. **Stale nodes** flagged with `[REVIEW: …]` — Archive, refresh, or keep?
+2. **Duplicate Nodes** (same title or >70% title overlap) — Merge or keep?
+3. **Orphan Nodes >90 days old** — Archive or connect?
+
+## Reporting Format
+
+The fixer reports to Kwame via this Zulip DM:
+
+```
+🦅 Memory Fixer — [HH:MM UTC]
+
+Level 1 fixes applied:
+- Missing type: X nodes classified
+- Missing namespace: Y nodes populated
+
+Stale nodes needing review (max 10):
+1. [Node #XXX] Title — X days stale, SUGGEST: refresh
+2. [Node #YYY] Title — Y days stale, SUGGEST: archive
+...
+
+Duplicates needing decision:
+1. [Node #AAA] vs [Node #BBB] — Same title
+
+Orphans >90 days:
+1. [Node #EEE] Title — X days stale, orphaned
+
+Reply with:
+- "archive #XXX, #YYY" to mark for archive
+- "archive all" to archive all stale nodes listed
+- "keep #XXX" to confirm a node is current
+- "merge #AAA into #BBB" to merge duplicates
+- "refresh #XXX" to mark as current
+```
+
+## Execution on Next Run
+
+The fixer reads Kwame's previous response and **executes the decision to completion** — it must not leave a node in review-pending forever. Tagging alone is NOT enough; each confirmed decision must also update `state` and `updated_at` so the node drops out of the stale window on the next run.
+
+> ⚠️ `updateNode` cannot set `state` to non-standard values (restricted to `processed`/`not_processed`) and cannot add metadata keys. For state transitions and `updated_at` bumps, use **direct SSH + SQLite** on the bridge host:
+> ```bash
+> ssh root@192.168.68.65 "sqlite3 /root/.local/share/RA-H/db/rah.sqlite \"UPDATE nodes SET metadata = json_set(metadata, '$.state', '<state>'), updated_at = datetime('now') WHERE id = <id>;\""
+> ```
+> Use `updateNode` only for description/source/title/link edits.
+
+Decision → completed action mapping:
+
+| Kwame reply | Description change | State | `updated_at` |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `archive #XXX` | replace `[REVIEW: archive] ` → `[ARCHIVED] ` prefix | `archived` | bumped to now |
+| `keep #XXX` / `refresh #XXX` | **clear the `[REVIEW: …]` tag entirely** | `active` | bumped to now |
+| `merge #AAA into #BBB` | set `[REVIEW: merge_into #BBB]` on #AAA, then follow manual merge workflow | handled manually | bumped to now |
+| `archive all` | apply the archive row to every node listed in the prior report | `archived` | bumped to now |
+
+**Why `updated_at` must be bumped (critical):** the Level-1 staleness query keys off `updated_at < now - window`. If the fixer clears the tag but leaves a stale `updated_at`, the node is immediately re-flagged on the very next run and the cycle repeats forever. Bumping `updated_at` to now pushes the node back to the front of the window.
+
+**Exclusion after action:** once an action is applied, the node's description no longer starts with `[REVIEW:` (archive → `[ARCHIVED]`, refresh/keep → original text), so it is not re-processed.
+
+After all actions are applied, verify with:
+```sql
+SELECT id, json_extract(metadata, '$.state') FROM nodes WHERE description LIKE '[REVIEW:%';
+```
+The result must be 0 rows when all decisions are executed. Report what was done.
+
+## Checks
+
+- **State integrity:** archived nodes have `state: archived` + `[ARCHIVED]` prefix; kept nodes are `state: active` without a `[REVIEW:]` tag.
+- **No review-pending forever:** after executing Kwame's decisions, `[REVIEW:%` node count must be 0.
+- **Timestamps:** every executed decision bumps `updated_at`, so the node exits the stale window on the next run.

+#!/bin/bash
+# tests/zulip-monitor-abiba.sh — regression test pinning the producer→consumer
+# contract between the pi Zulip extension's :9200/health payload and the Abiba
+# leg of scripts/zulip-monitor.sh.
+#
+# WHY THIS TEST EXISTS: 2026-09-09 live incident. The monitor parsed the health
+# payload at the WRONG nesting level (d.get('connected') at top level, while the
+# extension serves zulip.connected) so PI_CONNECTED was always False and every
+# monitor run restarted a healthy bot: pm2 showed restarts=8 with the process
+# created 2026-09-09T09:35:09Z, the monitor log recorded four ❌ Abiba verdicts
+# (04:23, 05:35, 06:55, 09:35 UTC) and zero ✅, while the Zulip server answered
+# HTTP 200 and the bot logged a clean connect plus continuing heartbeats. The
+# watchdog was the fault, not the connection. This test makes that class of
+# regression fail loudly instead of silently restarting healthy services.
+#
+# CONTRACT UNDER TEST (must hold for scripts/zulip-monitor.sh):
+#   * Connection state is NESTED: zulip.connected (boolean) and zulip.last_error
+#     live inside the `zulip` object. There is NO top-level `connected` and NO
+#     retry counter anywhere in the payload (verified against the extension's
+#     startHealthServer handler) — the old retry_count branch was dropped.
+#   * zulip.connected=true                  -> log "✅ Connected", NO pm2 restart.
+#   * zulip.connected=false                 -> alert, pm2 restart abiba-zulip.
+#   * fetch error / non-2xx / empty body / unparseable body / missing or
+#     non-boolean zulip.connected           -> "⚠️ Probe failed" alert with a
+#     "NOT restarting" label, NO pm2 restart. A parse miss must never kill a
+#     healthy service.
+#   * zulip.connected=true with last_error  -> degraded 🟡 warning, no restart.
+#
+# HOW: the Abiba leg of the shipped script sits between the
+# `# -- abiba-leg-start` / `# -- abiba-leg-end` marker comments. This runner
+# extracts that block verbatim and executes it with a stubbed curl (fixture body
+# + HTTP code), recorded notify()/pm2 shims, and a temp $LOG. If the markers
+# disappear (fix reverted or renamed) extraction yields nothing and the suite
+# fails — the bug cannot return silently.
+#
+# Usage: bash tests/zulip-monitor-abiba.sh [path/to/zulip-monitor.sh]
+# Exit 0 iff every check passes.
+#
+# shellcheck disable=SC2034,SC2329,SC1090
+# LOG/ISSUES and the notify/pm2/curl stubs below are consumed at runtime by
+# the leg extracted between the marker comments and `source`d in each case;
+# the static analyzer cannot see across that dynamic source, so it flags them.

-**B1: Gateway State**
+### Step 3: Platform B — Tanko (DSH on amdpve CT 112) & Mumuni (Hermes)
+
+Tanko runs on DSH (DeepSeek Harness) — it no longer runs a Hermes gateway, so
+there is no `~/.hermes/gateway_state.json` on CT 112. Tanko's Zulip gateway runs
+as the `dsh-web` systemd unit inside **CT 112**, which resides on the **amdpve**
+PVE host (**192.168.68.15**). Direct SSH to 192.168.68.122 is not a dependency
+of this contract — per-worker key availability varies — so CT 112 probes run
+from the amdpve vantage via `pct exec`:

 ```bash
-ssh root@192.168.68.122 "cat ~/.hermes/gateway_state.json"
-ssh root@192.168.68.123 "cat ~/.hermes/gateway_state.json"
+ssh root@192.168.68.15 "pct exec 112 -- <command>"
 ```

-Check `platforms.zulip.state`: `connected` ✅ | `disconnected` ❌ | `error` ❌ | missing → not installed.
+> **By design (verified 2026-09-08):** the `dsh-web` gateway binds
+> `127.0.0.1:3080` **loopback-only**. A remote probe against
+> `192.168.68.122:3080` gets connection-refused — that is EXPECTED, NOT a fault,
+> and must never be raised as Tanko down. Only loopback probes from inside
+> CT 112 (or the public-URL fallback below) are valid health signals.

-**B2: Agent Process**
+**B1: Gateway Service State (Tanko)**
+
+```bash
+ssh root@192.168.68.15 "pct exec 112 -- systemctl is-active dsh-web"
+```
+
+Expected: `active`. Anything else → gateway service down → apply the Tanko heal
+(restart via DSH service, Platform B Actions table below).
+
+**B2: Gateway HTTP Liveness (Tanko — loopback-only :3080)**
+
+```bash
+ssh root@192.168.68.15 "pct exec 112 -- curl -s --connect-timeout 5 --max-time 10 -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' http://127.0.0.1:3080/"
+```
+
+Alive = **ANY** HTTP status response from the endpoint — the expected set is
+`200`/`301`/`302`/`307`/`308`/`401`/`403` (the gateway UI is token-gated and
+legitimately answers with redirects/auth-challenges, so never require a bare
+`200`), and any other status, including `404`/`5xx`, also counts alive: a
+process answering `503` is running and self-heal must NOT restart-loop it.
+Down = connection refused (`000`) or timeout only. Statuses outside the
+expected set are logged/reported as a warning — reported, never healed on.
+
+**B3: Public-URL Fallback Probe (Tanko — for nodes without pct/ssh access to amdpve)**
+
+```bash
+curl -s --connect-timeout 10 --max-time 15 -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' https://tankodhs.sysloggh.net/
+```
+
+Fallback only — used when the monitoring node has no pct/SSH path to amdpve.
+Alive = **ANY** HTTP status response from the endpoint — healthy signals are
+`302` (authentik proxy-auth redirect) and `401` (auth-gated), and any other
+status, including `404`/`5xx`, also counts alive: the endpoint is up and
+answering and must NOT be restart-looped. Down = connection refused (`000`) or
+timeout only. Never expect a bare `200` — the public URL terminates in the
+token-gated authentik chain. Statuses outside the healthy set are
+logged/reported as a warning — reported, never healed on.
+
+**B4: Gateway Process** (Hermes agent Mumuni only — Tanko runs no Hermes gateway)

 ```bash
 ssh root@<CT> "ps aux | grep 'gateway run' | grep -v grep"
 ```

-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). Kill the newer/duplicate process, then restart the remaining gateway via PM2 (`pm2 restart mumuni-zulip`). Check gateway log for "Gateway running with 2 platform(s)" (not 1) to confirm Zulip reloaded.
