Fleet Resources (Paperclips Model)
Three primary resources govern the fleet:
| Resource |
Role |
Generation |
Consumption |
| Capacity |
Compute hours available across fleet. Determines what work can be done. |
Through healthy utilization of VPS/Mac agents |
Fleet improvements consume it (investing in automation, orchestration, sovereignty) |
| Uptime |
% time services are running. Earned at Fibonacci milestones. |
When services stay up naturally |
Degrades on any failure |
| Innovation |
Only generates when capacity is <70% utilized. Fuels Phase 3+. |
When you leave capacity free |
Phase 3+ buildings consume it (requires spare capacity to build) |
The Tension
- Run fleet at 95%+ capacity: maximum productivity, ZERO Innovation
- Run fleet at <70% capacity: Innovation generates but slower progress
- This forces the Paperclips question: optimize now or invest in future capability?

Capacity Utilization: ~15-20% active
Innovation rate: GENERATING (capacity < 70%)
Recommendation: Good — Innovation is generating because most capacity is free.
This means Phase 3+ capabilities (orchestration, load balancing, etc.) are accessible NOW.

Mitigation |
| Ezra disk 72% used |
MEDIUM |
Move non-essential data, add monitoring alert at 85% |
| Bezalel only 2GB RAM |
HIGH |
Cannot run large models locally. Good for Evennia, tight for agents |
| Ezra CPU load 269% |
HIGH |
MemPalace mining consuming 136% CPU. Consider scheduling |
| Mac disk 68% used |
MEDIUM |
302 GB free still. Growing but not urgent |
| No cross-VPS mesh |
LOW |
SSH works but no Tailscale. No private network between VPSes |
Recommendations
Immediate (Phase 1-2)
- Ezra disk cleanup: 44 GB free at 72%. Docker images, old logs, and MemPalace mine data could be rotated.
- Alert thresholds: Add disk alerts at 85% (Ezra, Mac) before they become critical.
Short-term (Phase 3)
- Load balancing: Ezra is CPU-bound, Allegro has 80% RAM free. Move some agent processes from Ezra to Allegro.
- Innovation investment: Since fleet is at 15-20% utilization, Innovation is high. This is the time to build Phase 3 capabilities.
Medium-term (Phase 4)
- Bezalel RAM upgrade: 2GB is tight. Consider upgrade to 4GB ($24/mo instead of $12/mo).
- Tailscale mesh: Install on all VPSes for private inter-VPS network.
