 # DEPRECATED — Bash Loop Scripts Removed
 
 **Date:** 2026-03-25
-**Reason:** Replaced by sovereign-orchestration (SQLite + Python single-process executor)
+**Reason:** Replaced by Hermes + timmy-config sidecar orchestration
 
 ## What was removed
 - claude-loop.sh, gemini-loop.sh, agent-loop.sh
@@ -9,14 +9,15 @@
 - nexus-merge-bot.sh, claudemax-watchdog.sh, timmy-loopstat.sh
 
 ## What replaces them
-**Repo:** Timmy_Foundation/sovereign-orchestration
-**Entry point:** `python3 src/sovereign_executor.py --workers 3 --poll 30`
-**Features:** SQLite task queue, crash recovery, dedup, playbooks, MCP server
-**Issues:** #29 (fix imports), #30 (deploy as service)
+**Harness:** Hermes
+**Overlay repo:** Timmy_Foundation/timmy-config
+**Entry points:** `orchestration.py`, `tasks.py`, `deploy.sh`
+**Features:** Huey + SQLite scheduling, local-model health checks, session export, DPO artifact staging
 
 ## Why
 The bash loops crash-looped, produced zero work after relaunch, had no crash
-recovery, no dedup, and required 8 separate scripts. The Python executor is
-one process with SQLite durability.
+recovery, no durable export path, and required too many ad hoc scripts. The
+Hermes sidecar keeps orchestration close to Timmy's actual config and training
+surfaces.
 
-Do NOT recreate bash loops. If the executor is broken, fix the executor.
+Do NOT recreate bash loops. If orchestration is broken, fix the Hermes sidecar.

 ## Orchestration: Huey
 
 All orchestration (triage, PR review, dispatch) runs via [Huey](https://github.com/coleifer/huey) with SQLite.
-`orchestration.py` (6 lines) + `tasks.py` (~70 lines) replace the entire sovereign-orchestration repo (3,846 lines).
