Both hosts had live improvements the repo never recorded: - esh-docker-vm excludes ESPHome's 539 MB of PlatformIO cache (2026-09-14). - irv-ml1 runs /etc/restic/arbo-checkpoint.sh before the backup, a non-fatal SQLite online-backup of arbo's gallery DB. That script is added here too. The live copies were correct and are the source for the next change. (Also fixes the fv-ml1 augaman removal time to ~0130 PT.)

augaman
The fleet's face-recognition service for Cicada (enroll, recognize, verify),
on esh-ml1 (CT 110 on esh-pve, RTX 2000E Ada). buffalo_l (SCRFD detector +
ArcFace w600k_r50) on ONNX Runtime CUDA. Code and the canonical compose live in
gitea pfi/augaman (owner: augaman-dev); compose.yaml here is a verbatim
mirror of that repo's deploy/compose.yaml at the deployed tag. Change it there
first, then re-mirror it here.
| URL | http://10.0.50.80:8040 (/health is unauthenticated; everything else needs the bearer token) |
| Token | secret get augaman/api-token (vault is the source of truth) |
| Image | augaman:<version>, built locally on esh-ml1 (below) |
| State | named volume augaman_gallery (SQLite, local disk; the app refuses NFS) |
| VRAM | ~0.74 GB on v0.1.3 (measured after the bench; 0.51 GB on v0.1.2) |
One instance: esh-ml1. A second, fixtures-only instance ran on fv-ml1's GPU 1
(GPU_ID=1) from 2026-09-27 0017 to ~0130 PT, for the speed comparison in
docs/pfi/augaman-speed-bench/.
Prime removed it after v0.1.3 put esh-ml1 at ~48 ms per face: it is in the house
next to the cameras and it holds the verified backup. GPU_ID / CARD_SUFFIX stay in
the compose for any future second host.
⚠ Biometric data: backup gate
The gallery holds face embeddings and crops of household members. esh-ml1 is
outside vzdump, so the gallery reaches backup only through the app's backup
CLI, which writes gallery.db (mode 0600) into BACKUP_DIR =
/var/lib/restic/stage/augaman (owned 10001:10001, mode 0700).
Operator ruling: until a scheduled backup ships that file off-box AND one restore has been verified (the restored copy reports the same identities), only public-domain test fixtures may be enrolled. No household faces.
Backup status (2026-09-27): WIRED AND RESTORE-VERIFIED, so the gate is met.
restic runs daily at 0100 PT to rest-server-ana, with a fail-closed pre-backup
hook (configs/restic/esh-ml1/). The
restore was verified against augaman-dev's public-domain canary identity (1
identity, 3 samples): the copy restored from snapshot fd3061a1 matched the
live gallery (identities, samples and embeddings, by digest), and
integrity_check returned ok.
docker exec augaman python -m augaman.gallery.backup --db /data/gallery.db --dest /backup/gallery.db
# one JSON line + exit 0, or "backup failed: ..." + exit 1
Building
The image is built on esh-ml1 from the release tag's content. esh-ml1 has no
gitea credentials, so the source is shipped as a git archive:
# from nh3-dev, in a pfi/augaman checkout
git archive --format=tar vX.Y.Z | ssh esh-ml1 'sudo mkdir -p /opt/docker/src/augaman-vX.Y.Z && sudo tar -x -C /opt/docker/src/augaman-vX.Y.Z && sudo chown -R infra-ops:infra-ops /opt/docker/src'
# on esh-ml1
cd /opt/docker/src/augaman-vX.Y.Z && docker build -t augaman:X.Y.Z .
The build fetches the two pinned models and SHA-256-checks them; a mismatch fails the build. v0.1.0 built in under 2 minutes cold; v0.1.1 was the first version deployed (2026-09-26), then v0.1.2 and v0.1.3 (2026-09-27; v0.1.3 gives each detector canvas its own session, about +190 MiB VRAM on esh-ml1).
⚠ Disk: a build that has to install the third-party packages takes ~8–11 GB
transiently (image ~5 GB plus the ~3 GB uv download cache). Beszel alerts at 85%.
Before v0.1.2, every version bump re-installed them, and the v0.1.1 build hit 90%.
From v0.1.2 the packages install from a layer keyed on uv export --no-emit-project, so a bump that changes no dependency reuses that layer. Keep
the layer cache (docker builder prune --filter type=exec.cachemount drops only
the download cache); a full docker builder prune forces the next build to
re-install everything. ⚠ The cache did not survive on esh-ml1 for v0.1.3 (the
deps layer re-ran for 1m43s, and the rootfs touched 90% until the old image was
removed). On fv-ml1 the same build was CACHED (49 s), and the exported requirements
were byte-identical across the two versions, so the layering itself works. The
esh-ml1 miss is unexplained; suspect the cache pruning done there after v0.1.2.
On esh-ml1, check df before a build, and have ≥15 GB free or remove the old
image first.
Startup is fail-closed on CUDA
The service refuses to serve unless CUDA really runs every convolution (profiled
warmup, ORT CPU fallback disabled). /health reports backend cuda only then.
Allow up to 180 s (start_period). The real GPU confirmation is the augaman
process showing up in nvidia-smi on the host.
