Hermes ops stack (Funday server)

Guide for agents and operators on the funday.gg host where Hermes assists Funday development.

Canonical source of truth: ~/.hermes/OPS-STACK.md on the server. Keep this file in sync when ops change.

Overview

  • Hermes home: ~/.hermes
  • Funday repo: /home/usr/funday
  • Active channel: Discord gateway (user systemd)
  • Observability: Self-hosted Langfuse at http://95.111.224.175:19030
  • Operator UI: https://funday.gg/dev/hermes/ (Funday dev auth) · https://funday.gg:59119/ (Direct, Funday dev auth via Nginx auth_request)

Langfuse

Tracing requires all of:

  1. Plugin enabled: observability/langfuse
  2. Keys in ~/.hermes/.env (HERMES_LANGFUSE_*)
  3. SDK in venv: uv pip install --python ~/.hermes/hermes-agent/venv/bin/python langfuse
  4. Gateway restart after env changes

Done when: a hermes chat turn produces a trace in the Langfuse UI (root span Hermes turn, environment=production).

Reinstall SDK after hermes update if the venv was recreated.

Safety

  • Private project — no GitHub push without explicit approval
  • No pkill — terminate by PID only
  • No production K3s/Traefik changes without confirmation
  • Hermes stays loopback-bound on 127.0.0.1:19119; SvelteKit dev auth (auth_request) is the external gate
