## 📸 NOC Dashboard
|
||
|
||
CedOps dashboards are intentionally versioned to demonstrate increasing operational maturity — from foundational observability to SRE-style incident response and reliability engineering.

|
||
## 🧭 Overview
|
||
|
||
CedOps is a **production-style AI operations platform** built to simulate a real-world Platform Engineering and AI Infrastructure environment.
|
||
|
||
The VPS stack runs on Hetzner and is monitored by Prometheus hosted on a Proxmox homelab node, communicating over a private Tailscale network — with everything visualized in a live Grafana NOC dashboard.
|
||
|
||
The platform combines:
|
||
|
||
* **Paperclip** — AI Agent Orchestration Platform managing 8 autonomous agents
|
||
* **SugeBot** — Hermes AI agent deployed as Telegram Operations Assistant (CTO/Ops role)
|
||
* **n8n** — Automation platform for workflow execution and inter-service routing
|
||
* **OpenRouter** — AI model gateway serving as the LLM backbone for all agents
|
||
* **Prometheus** — Hosted on Proxmox homelab, scraping VPS services over Tailscale
|
||
* **Grafana** — Full observability NOC dashboard visualizing the entire stack in real-time
|
||
* **Nginx Proxy Manager** — Reverse proxy + SSL management across all services
|
||
* **Docker + Portainer** — Container infrastructure and management layer

## 🤖 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 |
|

|
||
|
||
> **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:**
|
||
|
||
```text
|
||
Internet → Cloudflare Edge → Tunnel → Nginx Proxy Manager → Docker Services
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## 📊 Observability & NOC
|
||
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
### 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 % — infrastructure capacity monitoring
|
||
* 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
|
||
* Public Endpoint Response Time
|
||
* SSL Expiry Days tracking
|
||
* Service availability monitoring
|
||
* SLO / SLA visibility
|
||
* Incident timeline monitoring
|
||

|
||
|
||
## 🔒 Security Architecture
|
||
|
||
CedOps is designed with **zero public infrastructure exposure**.
|
||
|
||
| Control | Implementation |
|
||
| ------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||
| No open ports | Cloudflare Tunnel handles all ingress |
|
||
| Private metrics pipeline | Prometheus → Tailscale → VPS; never public |
|
||
| 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 |
