## 📊 Observability & NOC
The CedOps NOC dashboard monitors the entire VPS stack in real-time.
Prometheus runs on the **Proxmox homelab** and scrapes the Hetzner VPS over a **Tailscale private tunnel** — keeping metrics collection completely off the public internet. Grafana visualizes everything in the live NOC dashboard.

## 🤖 AI Agent Roster
All agents run inside **Paperclip** — the AI Agent Orchestration Platform at `paperclip.synthossystems.com`.
| Agent | Role | Status |
|---|---|---|
| **Suge** | CTO / Operations (Hermes Agent) — also deployed as SugeBot on Telegram | ✅ Live |
| **CEO** | Executive decision-making and strategic oversight | ✅ Live |
| **ClaudeCoder** | Software engineering and code generation | ✅ Live |
| **Engineer** | Infrastructure and systems engineering | ✅ Live |
| **Marketing** | Marketing strategy and content | ✅ Live |
| **Offer Builder Agent** | Sales offer generation and pipeline | ✅ Live |
| **Research** | Market research and intelligence gathering | ✅ Live |
| **Sales Agent** | Lead qualification and outreach | ✅ Live |
> **Suge** serves dual duty — the primary Hermes-style ops agent inside Paperclip, and the external-facing **SugeBot** on Telegram for real-time operational commands.

## 🖥️ Infrastructure Layer
All services run on a **Hetzner VPS** (`synthos-node-1`) behind Cloudflare Tunnels with zero exposed ports.
| Service | Role | URL |
|---|---|---|
| **VPS / Portainer** | Docker container management | Internal |
| **Nginx Proxy Manager** | Reverse proxy + SSL termination | Internal |
| **Homepage** | CedOps command center dashboard | `ops.synthossystems.com` |
| **Synthos Website** | Business-facing website | `synthossystems.com` |
| **Ced's Home Lab** | Homelab / Portfolio platform | `cedshomelab.com` |
**Traffic Flow:**
```
Internet → Cloudflare Edge → Tunnel → Nginx Proxy Manager → Docker Services
```

## 📊 Observability & NOC
The CedOps NOC dashboard monitors the entire VPS stack in real-time.
### Executive Health Panel
- **Synthos VPS Status** — UP/DOWN state with instant alerting
- **Public Services Up** — count of healthy endpoints (target: 5/5)
- **NOC Health Score** — composite platform health percentage
- **VPS Uptime** — continuous uptime tracking in days
### VPS Resource Health
- CPU Usage % — `synthos-node-1` CPU time series
- Memory Utilization % — real-time memory pressure
- Disk Used % — current at 27%
- Network Traffic — RX/TX bandwidth graphs (30s refresh)
### Public Service Availability
Tracked via **Blackbox Exporter** HTTP probes:
| Service | Endpoint | Status |
|---|---|---|
| cedshomelab | cedshomelab.com | ✅ UP |
| n8n | n8n.synthossystems.com | ✅ UP |
| cedops | ops.synthossystems.com | ✅ UP |
| paperclip | paperclip.synthossystems.com | ✅ UP |
| synthos-website | synthossystems.com | ✅ UP |
### Reliability Metrics
- HTTP Status Codes per endpoint (all returning `200`)
- Public Endpoint Response Time (ms) — time series graph
- SSL Expiry Days — tracked per certificate with warning thresholds
---
## 🔒 Security Architecture
CedOps is designed with **zero public infrastructure exposure**.
| Control | Implementation |
|---|---|
| No open ports | Cloudflare Tunnel handles all ingress |
| No public Prometheus | Metrics stay private; only Grafana is exposed |
| SSL everywhere | NPM handles termination for all services |
| Container isolation | Docker network segmentation via Portainer |
| Secret management | No secrets in this repo — handled via environment variables |
