Per operator: drop the hourly cc-ci-reap-dev-deploys systemd timer; instead run the dev-* reaper at the START (Step 0, alongside the orphan sweep) and END (new step 4b) of each /upgrade-all run, with THRESHOLD=0 (the run is quiescent then, so clear all dev-* unconditionally). The reaper keeps its safe default (4h) for ad-hoc use. Step-2b mandatory teardown is unchanged (primary mechanism); this is the backstop. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
cc-ci-orchestrator
⚠️ HISTORICAL. This README describes the retired Incus VM (
100.116.55.106). The orchestrator now runs on Hetzner — the live host config isnix/hosts/cc-ci-orchestrator-hetzner/configuration.nix. Seecc-ci-plan/plan-orchestrator-hetzner-migration.mdfor the current setup. Kept for history.
NixOS config for the cc-ci-orchestrator Incus VM (b1, project terraform-ci, tailnet
100.116.55.106) — the reboot-resilient host for the cc-ci Builder/Adversary loops + watchdog +
orchestrator session, moved off the unstable 905 MiB Pi.
See cc-ci-plan/plan-orchestrator-migration.md for the full migration.
Files
configuration.nix— the VM's NixOS config (channel-based,nixos-24.11). Deployed to/etc/nixos/configuration.nixon the VM. Provides: nix-ld (so the standalone Claude Code Bun binary runs), tmux/git/python/jq + tools, a 4 GB swapfile, direct ssh to cc-ci (the VM is a tailnet peer — no SOCKS proxy needed, unlike the Pi), an idempotentclaude-installoneshot, and thecc-ci-loopssupervisor service (defined, enabled in Phase D once the workspace is staged).
Deploy (until this is wired to a flake/auto-pull)
# copy configuration.nix to the VM, then:
ssh cc-ci-orchestrator 'nixos-rebuild switch' # or run detached: see below
Over the (currently flaky) Pi→VM link, run the rebuild detached on the VM so an ssh/proxy drop
doesn't abort it, e.g. systemd-run --unit=orch-rebuild --collect nixos-rebuild switch then poll
journalctl -u orch-rebuild.
Status
- Phase A: VM created (2 GB / 2 vCPU / 30 GB), on tailnet, ssh-able. ✅
- Phase B: this config (DRAFT) — nix-ld/claude validation pending on the VM.
- Operator step pending (Phase C):
claude auth loginon the VM (device-code; can't be scripted). - Secrets to stage (Phase C, out-of-band):
