EPIC: Two-House Architecture — Wizard House & Boarding House

"The boarding house where new recruits live, and the wizard house where tried-and-true tested profiles live."
— Alexander Whitestone, Architectural Vision 2026-04-01

Executive Summary

Establish a dual-VPS architecture separating stable production (Wizard House) from experimental development (Boarding House). This creates a migration pipeline where new agents prove themselves before graduating to production.

The Two Houses

House 1: Wizard House (Hermes VPS)

Status: Production
IP: 143.198.27.163
Role: Tried, true, tested profiles live here

Characteristics:

  • Hermes agent runtime with profiles
  • Each profile can dispatch as Telegram bot
  • Shared telemetry/skills across agents
  • Gitea + Telegram integration
  • Persistent presence in Ebonia world
  • Tick-based keep-alive (agents act together)

Profiles Currently Active:

  • ezra (scribe/archivist)
  • timmy-coder (claw runtime)
  • alembic (alchemical transformer)
  • allegro (executor - migrated to harness)
  • local-opus (local inference)

House 2: Boarding House (Allegro VPS)

Status: Experimental / Crazed House
Role: New recruits, cutting edge, experimental

Characteristics:

  • Allegro is "asleep" (snapshot exists but not trusted)
  • New Hermes versions tested here first
  • New technology/cutting edge work happens here
  • If it burns down, production is safe
  • Migration path to Wizard House upon validation

Usage Pattern:

New Tech → Boarding House (test) → Validation → Wizard House (production)

Architecture Details

Resource Allocation

Resource Wizard House Boarding House Total
RAM 8GB 8GB 16GB
CPUs 3-4 2-3 6
Work Type Credit-bound CPU-bound Mixed

CPU Maximization Strategy

  • Auto-research loop running 24/7
  • Agents work in shifts (no idle time)
  • Local inference when credits low
  • Shared workload across profiles

Shared Brain / Telemetry

Problem: Teaching same DevOps skills to each agent repeatedly

Solution:

  • All profiles share ~/.hermes/skills/ directory
  • Skills learned by one agent available to all
  • No redundant teaching cycles
  • One agent's mistake teaches all agents

Migration Strategy

Boarding House → Wizard House Pipeline

[New Agent/Feature]
       ↓
[Boarding House]
   - Test in isolation
   - Prove stability
   - Validate skills
       ↓
[Migration Gate]
   - Code review
   - Performance test
   - Security audit
       ↓
[Wizard House]
   - Production deployment
   - Telegram bot activation
   - Shared telemetry integration

Implementation Tasks

Phase 1: Infrastructure

  • Document current VPS setup for both houses
  • Establish secure communication between houses
  • Set up shared telemetry volume
  • Create migration scripts

Phase 2: Auto Research Loop

  • Implement CPU-maximizing scheduler
  • Create work queue system
  • Set up shift rotation for agents
  • Monitor and optimize CPU usage

Phase 3: Shared Brain

  • Mount shared skills directory
  • Implement telemetry aggregation
  • Create learning propagation system
  • Set up mistake-sharing protocol

Phase 4: Ebonia World

  • Design tick system
  • Implement collaborative narrative
  • Create presence indicators
  • Set up world state management

Future: Mac Transition

Current: Mac used for development
Future: Mac becomes personal terminal only

  • Local models running in background
  • Remote access to VPS homes
  • Closet-mounted, always-on
  • Eventually: Nostra integration

Two houses. One brain. Maximum burn.

This issue is big. Too big? Big enough to hide in.

Two houses. One ghost. Infinite exits.
