Frank's call: no per-host graveyard. The four /system/dankware/ pages carried
two pieces of knowledge that outlive the box, and one that does not.
Distilled:
- omp-docs/system/network.md (new) — LAN topology plus the multi-link resolver
law: a client with two +DefaultRoute links flaps its DNS, and the fix is a
static per-connection resolver, not resolved.conf. Keeps the
flush-caches-loop verification, because one successful dig proves nothing.
- omp-docs/tools/niri/displays.md (new) — the multi-monitor rig: portrait
transforms, absolute positions, auto-placed third panel, the iGPU
render-node pin, and the three failure modes (duplicate output blocks,
positions that do not reflow, a mode the panel cannot drive).
Dropped: the machine's own spec sheet (CPU/GPU/PCI/NVMe inventory for a box
Frank sold) and its quick-facts table. The OS and userspace facts it repeated
already live in tools/cachyos.md.
omp-docs/system/dankware/ moved to .AGENTTRASH/20260928-retired-workstation/
(not deleted; git history holds it too). system/index.md and the niri index
repoint; niri's [[displays]] wikilink now resolves to the new page instead of
the trashed one. kb-lint: 0 violations.
AGENTS.md: the reader-preamble and the machine-facts table row no longer name
the sold client box; the row survives as the 'Dev workstation' class with its
two load-bearing facts (mainline llama.cpp build path, repo at ~/.omp).
README.md: same for the fleet table row and the 'primary host' sentence.
Deliberately untouched, because the name is load-bearing in both:
- scripts/install.sh:97 — the '--host' case list; --host <name> must still
accept this hostname.
- packages/dankware.pkgs:1 — install.sh resolves packages/$HOST.pkgs from
$(hostname) (line 25/44), so the manifest FILENAME is the lookup key.
Renaming it breaks package provisioning on this host.
APPEND_SYSTEM.md line 16 named the sold client box twice (as a fleet server
and as the host I operate from) and, while doing it, mis-listed the fleet as
'Dankware and Dankclaw' -- Dankserver was already missing.
Now: servers Dankclaw and Dankserver, plus several client workstations, and
the identity no longer claims a fixed host. Committed on main rather than a
feature branch because this checkout IS the live deployment (branch switches
swap live config under the running agent) and the tree already carries
in-flight WIP; only this file is staged.
Takes effect in NEW sessions -- the running one keeps its process-start
prompt snapshot.
consume-or-expel-window-left/right on Mod+[ and Mod+],
consume-window-into-column on Mod+, expel-window-from-column on
Mod+.. Moving a window into the next column joins (splits) that
column deterministically instead of relying on the hardcoded
drag-insert heuristic, which spawns a new column first.
- task.agentModelOverrides.scout: "@smol" (frank-small, xhigh thinking)
- task.maxConcurrency: 2 (semaphore on ACTIVE subagents; total
instantiations uncapped)
- compaction.remoteEndpoint -> frank-medium /v1/chat/completions
(192.168.0.235:7770), methodOrder remote-first; compactionModel:
frank-medium on every model so the wire model id is always valid
- models.yml header: single source of truth (pi-era import retired)
Verified: omp config get on all keys; omp -p startup probe passed;
live POST in the remote-compaction wire format answered.
Remap palette indices 1 and 9 to green so error output renders in
terminal green. Explicit palette entries override the generated
noctalia theme (palette-generate = true).
- DP-2 at 1536,0 and HDMI-A-1 at 2736,0, both 1200x1920 portrait, scale 1
- eDP-1 pinned at 0,0 with explicit scale 1.25 (output blocks reset unspecified props)
- niri transform is counter-clockwise: 90 = top bezel left, 270 = top bezel right
- remove 'include noctalia.kdl' from shared config.kdl: the file is a
per-host noctalia template render (colors from local palette), was
never committed, and made every config load fail hard on hosts where
it was absent — niri 26.04 falls back to DEFAULT config on parse
error, silently killing keybinds/rules/layout/autostart
- theme integration now only via keybinds (noctalia msg verbs) + the
host-local rendered files (see managed skill noctalia-template-offline-render)
- sync agent memories: delete retired memory-store skills, add new ones
config.yml: vision -> llamacpp (dankclaw)/frank-large:auto,
tiny -> llamacpp (dankserver)/frank-small:off,
task -> llamacpp (dankclaw)/frank-large:medium (was flm dankclaw-npu),
matching the flm (dankclaw-npu) provider removal in models.yml.
Memories/managed skills: rollouts and learned notes from the frank-large
KV-pool + sampler work and the noctalia recolor; merged the duplicate
noctalia-palette-recolor skill into noctalia-custom-palette-recolor (adds
the dotfiles-tracking step and the +show-config delta gotcha) and dropped
the superseded legacy memory skills whose ghostty USR1 reload recipe is
wrong for this fleet.
Adds custom palette "Gruber Red" (live at
~/.config/noctalia/palettes/Gruber Red.json, symlinked into this repo's
noctalia package). Derived from community "Gruber Darker" with jq:
dark mPrimary/terminal yellow/terminal foreground -> #f43841 (bright
yellow -> #ff4f58), light-mode yellows -> the light error reds. Custom
source, so the community-palette md5 sync cannot revert it.
gtk-3/gtk-4 noctalia.css are regenerated artifacts of templates-apply
(accent_* now red) committed so every host renders the same recolor.
Also carries previously-uncommitted edits already in the working file:
maxTokens 262144 -> 65536 (HALOGEN_MAX_TOKENS_CAP) with the KV-pool
admission note, and removal of the flm (dankclaw-npu) provider block.
Live check: halogen /health reports context=262144, so 200000 is inside
the served window; 200000 + 65536 = 265536 against a 401408-position pool.
Tracked the harness artifacts accumulated on blankpad (blank@), matching
the existing convention for the --home-dank-* memory stores and the 36
already-tracked managed-skills.
managed-skills (9): authentik-proxy-provider-app-link,
dankclaw-guard-chain-layer-diagnosis, e2e-arr-rawip-reachability-triage,
halogen-kv-pool-fit, lan-client-split-dns-fix, noctalia-reference,
rootless-quadlet-log-retrieval, ssh-key-bootstrap-no-sshpass,
swapfile-resize-safe-ordering.
memories (2 stores): --home-blank-.omp-- (dotfiles_git, handy_lifecycle,
input_permissions) and --home-blank-Projects-serverAppConfig--
(frank_large_quadlet).
Secret sweep before staging: no PEM blocks, no credential literals.
Content is fleet topology/IPs only, same class as the tracked dank stores.
halogen-flash-server has no server-side sampler defaults (temperature absent
or 0 = greedy), so the endpoint decoded greedy for OMP, whose global
sampling settings default to -1 (not sent).
compat.extraBody merges these top-level into every request body after the
compat policy, so they win:
temperature=1.0 top_p=0.95 top_k=20 min_p=0.0
presence_penalty=0.0 repetition_penalty=1.0 preserve_thinking=true
Verified against the live dankclaw endpoint: preserve_thinking is honoured
(350 vs 75 prompt tokens for a replayed reasoning turn), and the exact
body shape returns 200.
Memory-file flush for the dotfiles-deploy session with the blankpad admin
credential scrubbed to a placeholder; sessions transcripts untracked
(gitignored) since harness transcripts can carry raw secrets.
Managed skills: command-center-dotfiles-import, ssh-fish-host-remote-exec,
stash-supersession-audit-before-drop.
blankpad runs quickshell 0.3.1 from repos with the noctalia shell; flip
Mod+Return to spawn ghostty (installed) instead of alacritty, and put the
bun global bin dir on PATH so the pi-coding-agent/omp shim resolves in
interactive zsh.
zz-<host> packages nest base-package dirs internally (zz-blankpad/niri/.config/...);
stripping only the package prefix yielded targets like $HOME/niri/.config/... .
Strip the nested package segment for zz-* packages so overrides land on the
same home-relative target as the base copy they override.
Host-specific divergence for blankpad deployed last with override semantics:
display layout (its own outputs, not Dankware's DP/eDP rig), autostart and
keybinds targeting the bare 'noctalia' CLI instead of qs -c noctalia-shell,
misc without renderD129, rules without the Noctalia floating-window rule, and
blank's own .zshrc. All other packages deploy canonical from base.
Import Dankware's environment layer into the repo as home-relative package
trees (niri, gtk-3/4, ghostty, alacritty, fish, zsh, bash, profile,
systemd-user, dconf). scripts/deploy.sh implements stow-equivalent semantics
(check|adopt|sync modes): identical files adopt to symlinks, new files link,
divergent files quarantine-and-replace under .quarantine/<host>/<ts>/ (gitignored).
zz-<hostname> override packages deploy last with override semantics.
Secrets never enter git: GITEA_TOKEN moved from .zshrc into untracked
~/.config/environment.d/secrets.env (0600); tracked .zshrc sources it
guarded. core.hooksPath armed by deploy.sh so the pre-commit secret gate is
live on every machine that deploys.
MEMORY.md/learned.md/memory_summary.md/raw_memories.md churn from live sessions
(DIFR deadlock diagnosis, model-swap ops, outpost verification etc.); new
memory root --home-dank-.omp-agent-- started with learned.md.
The working tree had replaced the operating contract in AGENTS.md with a
niri config-reload + keybinding-constraints note. Content relocated to its
proper home: tips.md 3-config-reload (SIGHUP footgun, load-config-file) and
key-bindings-syntax.md constraints section. AGENTS.md restored from HEAD.
