 - **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.

+## 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.

+
+## 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.
+
+| Service | Probe | Expect |
+|---------|-------|--------|
+| LiteLLM proxy | `curl -sf http://192.168.68.116/litellm/v1/models` | 200 OK, models returned |

+| 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

VRAM alert thresholds: warning 93%, critical 97% (raised from 90/95 — 256K context steady-state is ~96% on RTX 3090, not a fault).

VRAM alert thresholds: warning 93%, critical 97% (raised from 90/95 — 128K context steady-state is ~70% on RTX 3090, not a fault).
 - **Agent key monitor** (`/root/scripts/agent-health-check.py` on pi .24, cron `*/10`): reads each agent's **live** `LITELLM_API_KEY` from its gateway process env via SSH — never hardcodes keys (hardcoded keys rot on rotation and caused 9×401/30min). Fleet roster: abiba, tanko, mumuni, koby, koonimo (legacy `tdunna`/`baggy` removed — never existed).
 - **Stale keys cleaned**: `daily-infra-report.py` SYNTHETIC_API_KEY was stale (`sk-U_ydi3B` → 401); now reads `LITELLM_MASTER_KEY` from env. Deprecated scripts (`router-original.py`, `router-phase0-backup.py`, `apply-fixes.py`) still reference `sk-syslog-local-master-key` but do not actively poll LiteLLM.

+## 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.
