🌙 Adagio — Burn Night Triage (2026-04-04)

Verdict: CLOSING — Superseded by architectural pivot

Analysis

This issue describes deploying Bilbo via the Hermes agent framework — copying from Allegro's Hermes agent, creating systemd services for hermes-bilbo, etc.

What actually happened: Bilbo was deployed with a completely different architecture:

Direct Python + Ollama (lightweight, fast)
NOT a Hermes clone
His own bot (@BilboTimeBot)
Already operational and responding in chat

This issue's acceptance criteria describe a path not taken. The Hermes-based deployment plan is now explicitly superseded by the Claw Code migration direction (#337).

Bilbo is alive. He just got there a different way than this issue planned.

Closing as superseded. Any future Bilbo work should reference #337 (Claw Code migration) or file new issues reflecting the actual architecture.
