brokkr-smithy-dev pointed §4.5's own test at §4.3's remedy: recording `attn_implementation_resolved` is a check that cannot fail on the axis the failure lives on. A silent Dynamo fallback to uncompiled flex leaves `config._attn_implementation == "flex_attention"` untouched while the run computes at ~20x the cost and, per torch's own docs, does not work correctly through the backward pass. The field records the request's RESOLUTION, not its SURVIVAL. On the failure mode that matters it reports success either way. So the section now requires the step-time distribution beside it -- n, min, p50, p99, max -- which is the check that can actually fail. Compiled sits at p50 ~20 s; a fallback at ~400 s. One perf_counter() in on_step_end buys it. Distribution rather than a mean, because a mean hides exactly the bimodality a PARTIAL fallback produces. Generalised past this instance: any provenance field recording a CONFIGURED value is a claim about intent. If the failure you fear is the configuration silently not taking effect, you need a second field recording an OBSERVED consequence, and the pairing is the check. A settings dump alone is decorative. Two implementation details are called out because both were wrong in the first draft -- percentiles nearest-rank so every reported value is a real observation, and exclude the FIRST step rather than the slowest, since step 1 carries compilation but is not reliably the maximum on a variable-width run. New §4.7.1: rotate the log on relaunch. Run 2's first attempt died on the warmup_ratio TypeError and the relaunch appended, so the traceback sat at line 15 of a file whose live run began at line 39 -- and a `tail -n +1 -F` monitor replayed the dead traceback as a fresh event. One file describes one run. Checklist gains both lines.
eshpfi-management
Infrastructure management workspace for the PFI fleet (plus the ESH home-lab host). Tracks server state, canonical Docker Compose stacks, per-host configs, and the tooling that moves them around.
See CLAUDE.md for the full set of conventions and the rules Claude Code sessions follow when working here.

Common tasks
Refresh one host's snapshot:
scripts/refresh-server-info.sh ana-docker
Refresh all hosts:
scripts/refresh-server-info.sh all
Refresh all Proxmox nodes (separate flow — captures VM/LXC/backup-coverage):
scripts/refresh-proxmox-info.sh all
Add a new host:
scripts/add-host.sh <name> <ip-or-user@ip>
scripts/refresh-server-info.sh <name>
Validate discovery (without hitting the network):
scripts/refresh-server-info.sh --validate-only all
Push a stack to a host (with diff + confirm):
scripts/deploy-stack.sh <host> <stack>
Pull every server's compose/conf trees into stacks-mirror/ (not committed — see .gitignore):
scripts/sync-stacks.sh all
Bootstrap a new fleet repo from this one:
scripts/fork-fleet.sh ~/development/<other-fleet>-management
# optional: override the fleet-name baked into the skeleton CLAUDE.md / README
scripts/fork-fleet.sh ~/development/<dest> <fleet-name>
Mirrors the reusable tooling (everything under scripts/, the
generic playbook templates, .gitignore, conventions section of
CLAUDE.md) into the destination dir, strips fleet-specific content
(servers/, stacks/, configs/, fleet-named playbooks
(deploy-*, decouple-*), docs/orientation.md, docs/runbooks/,
docs/pfi/, STATUS.md, host-pinned helper scripts), regenerates
skeleton CLAUDE.md / README.md / STATUS.md with the new fleet
name, and initializes a fresh git history with one "Initial commit".
The script does not create a gitea remote or push — namespace +
repo name are an explicit manual step. The "next steps" output prints
the exact tea repo create + git remote add + git push commands
to wire it up when ready.
Backup pipeline
Backups are driven by per-host resticprofile configs under configs/restic/<host>/, scheduled via systemd timers on each host:
- Writes: each host backs up to its site-local rest-server (
rest-server-anaorrest-server-nh3), over HTTP basic-auth. - Authentication: shared
.htpasswdfile on both rest-servers, one entry per host; credentials stored in/etc/restic/restic.envon each client host. - Encryption: per-host client-side passphrase in
/etc/restic/password(unique per repo; losing it = losing that host's backups). - Visibility: Backrest (
http://10.250.50.70:9898) shows every repo for browsing/restore. - Schedule: backup at 01:00 daily,
forgetat 03:00 daily, weeklycheck --read-data-subset 10%on Sundays. - Prune: manual ceremony (rest-server runs with
--append-only, which blocks destructive prune ops). - Off-site: cross-site rsync between the two rest-server data dirs is planned (not yet implemented).
Coverage status (as of 2026-04-29)
Goal: every Docker host + configs + every database covered, not just VM images.
| Layer | State |
|---|---|
| VM-level (Proxmox vzdump) | ✅ All running guests covered across pfi-pve / nh3-pve / esh-pve-nas; esh-pve has VMID 108 uncovered |
| ana-docker restic (host files + DBs) | ✅ configs/restic/ana-docker/ with pre-backup hooks for synapse / seafile / vaultwarden-pg / gitea (native dump) / openwebui |
| ana-ml2 restic | ✅ configs/restic/ana-ml2/ — bare-metal host files (no DB hooks needed) |
| nh3-docker restic | ✅ Light — no DB hooks needed |
| esh-docker-vm restic | ✅ With DB hooks for paperless-postgres (external), home-assistant + pgadmin + uptime-kuma (host-side sqlite3), calibre-web-automated (in-container sqlite3) |
| vm-esh-nas restic | ✅ Light — NFS mounts explicitly excluded |
| nh3-dev (workstation) restic | ✅ /home/lkraven + /etc with language-toolchain and build-output excludes |
| irv-ml1 restic | ✅ Cross-site to rest-server-nh3 via WireGuard |
| esh-vm-db restic | ✅ With pg_dumpall + mongodump pre-backup hooks |
| Cross-site redundancy | ✅ ana-nas → nh3-nas rsync at 04:00 daily; nh3-nas → ana-nas at 05:00 daily (configs/rsync/) |
| Prune ceremony | ✅ Quarterly manual ritual documented in docs/runbooks/nh3-prune-ritual.md (DSM-mediated --append-only toggle) |
| offen/docker-volume-backup sidecars on esh-docker-vm | ❌ Remove once restic proves itself (~1 week of clean runs) |
Authoritative vs. mirror
- Authoritative: files on each server under
/opt/docker/compose/<stack>/and/opt/docker/conf/<stack>/. - This workspace: source-of-truth copies under
stacks/<name>/(hand-curated), and a gitignored mirror understacks-mirror/pulled bysync-stacks.sh.
Edit in stacks/, push with deploy-stack.sh. Never commit stacks-mirror/ — it can contain embedded plaintext secrets from upstream compose files that haven't been audited yet.
