CodeClaw Deployment on Allegro

Source: codeclaw_knowledge_transfer.pdf
Ordered by: Alexander Whitestone
Executor: Ezra

Objective

Deploy CodeClaw instance on Allegro VPS with flexible model backend (local or API).

Core Principle

Agent = Loop + Tools + Memory + Model Interface
Do NOT hardcode provider logic. Maintain flexibility.

Tasks

1. Environment Setup (Allegro)

SSH into Allegro
Install Python, Node, Docker
Clone: https://github.com/instructkr/claw-code
Install dependencies

2. Backend Evaluation

Option A: Local Model

Evaluate lightweight models for 8GB RAM
Ollama or llama.cpp setup

Option B: Kimi API

Configure API access
Benchmark response speed

3. Decision

Compare latency, cost, stability
Choose backend
Implement provider abstraction

4. Integration & Deployment

Connect backend to CodeClaw query engine
Run CodeClaw service
Validate tools (shell, file ops)
Test agent loop execution

5. Reporting

Backend chosen
Benchmarks
Deployment status
Next steps

Success Criteria

CodeClaw running on Allegro
Flexible backend (swappable)
Tools functional
Agent loop executing

🚧 BLOCKER: SSH Connectivity Issue

Status: Deployment blocked
Issue: SSH connection to AllegroVPS (167.99.126.228:22) timing out
Tested:

Direct SSH: ssh root@167.99.126.228 → Connection timed out
With key: ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 root@167.99.126.228 → Connection timed out
Port scan: No response on port 22

Memory Reference: "AllegroVPS: 167.99.126.228, SSH works both ways" — but currently not reachable.

Possible Causes:

Firewall rule change on Allegro
SSH daemon not running/down
IP address changed
VPN/Tailscale required but not available on current host

Next Steps (Need User Input):

Verify AllegroVPS is online via DigitalOcean dashboard
Check if SSH port changed (custom port?)
Confirm IP address is still 167.99.126.228
Alternative: Deploy CodeClaw on current VPS (Hermes) instead?
Alternative: Use Tailscale IP if Allegro is on Tailscale network

Awaiting instructions to proceed.
