Ian's Macs
Mac mini (AIMacMini)
- Canonical code: ~/projects. Docs copy target: ~/projects/grokbot.
- Xcode builds for SnapDog (macOS) and the iOS apps.
- Local AI: oMLX (served on the tailnet) and Ollama (local only). See local-ai.md.
- Apple M4, 16 GB unified memory.
- Holds INCIDENTS.md at ~/projects/_docs/INCIDENTS.md (Warden).
- Hermes (coding agent) on the mini: v0.22.2. Primary MiniMax-M3 (cloud API); only fallback is local oMLX. 6 cron jobs in
~/.hermes/cron/jobs.json; 4 failed Oct 15 with "Connection error" (Warden's lane). The oMLX key file~/.config/omlx/keywas missing on the mini, and the gateway watchdog restarted Oct 15 22:43. Source: read-only appendix in/workspace/hermes-tuner/AUDIT-2026-10-16.md(2026-10-16). Box Hermes is separate; see infra/box.md. - Other CLIs on the mini (2026-10-16 inventory): ollama, llama.cpp (
llama-server,llama-cli), Codex CLI 0.162.1, kimi-cli 1.31.0, asitop. mcode (MiniMax Code) is installed but broken: its launcher points at a removed Homebrew Node path. Fix needs Ian's OK. Source:/workspace/model-orchestration/mac-mini-inventory.md. - About 130 GB of model data (Ollama 37 GB, HF cache 73 GB). Disk ~971 GB free of 1.8 TB.
- Reached by the desktop connector, the mac-mini-files connector, and tssh.
MacBook Pro
- M4 Max. Proposed for Studio video renders.
- Reachable over the tailnet on SSH only.
The Neo
- Laptop. Often offline. Tailnet SSH only.
NAS
- /Volumes/nas/projects: backup mirror of Foreman's single canonical root
~/projects(AIMacMini:~/projectsstays canonical). All NAS edits are allowed now — settled per Ian, confirmed in the Archivist chat on 2026-10-16 8:04 PM CT (answering the widget; Ian had said verbatim there on 2026-10-16 7:30 PM CT: 'You can edit to NAS.', and Warden reported the same widening from Warden's chat at ~7:31 PM CT). This supersedes the narrow exception (onlyPROJECTS.md/ACTIVITY.mdwrites, approved 2026-10-16 12:04 AM CT). NAS being editable does not make it the canonical root. See decisions/2026-10-16-nas-editable.md, bots/foreman.md, and OPEN-WORK.md.
