- Downloads promtool 3.10.0 darwin-arm64 from GitHub releases - Runs natively on Mac (not inside Docker — that was the bug) - Creates TSDB blocks locally, copies into Prometheus volume via busybox - Verified: 50 blocks created successfully from test run - Added .gitignore for promtool binary
Timmy Telemetry — Sovereign Monitoring Stack
Prometheus + Grafana + custom exporter for the Timmy Foundation infrastructure. Zero cloud dependencies. Runs entirely on Hermes.
What You Get
Sovereignty Index (0-100)
Composite score across 7 dimensions:
| Dimension | What it measures | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Inference | % of model calls going local vs cloud | 25% |
| Compute | Local GPU/CPU vs rented cloud | 20% |
| Data | Local storage (Gitea/SQLite/JSONL) vs cloud | 15% |
| Infrastructure | Self-hosted services vs SaaS | 15% |
| Tools | Local tools vs cloud-dependent ones | 15% |
| Identity | Self-managed keys vs platform accounts | 5% |
| Financial | Lightning/Cashu vs fiat rails | 5% |
Top 5 Common Sense Metrics
- Commit Velocity — commits/24h per repo (from Gitea API)
- Issues & PRs — open counts, burn rate (from Gitea API)
- Heartbeat Health — tick rate, consecutive OK, last tick age (from
~/.timmy/heartbeat/) - Local Inference — calls today, success rate, avg response length (from
~/.timmy/metrics/) - Model Health — Ollama up/down, API responding, inference OK, models loaded (from
~/.hermes/model_health.json)
Bonus
- Agent activity (commits per agent: claude, gemini, kimi, grok, perplexity, Timmy)
- DPO training pairs staged
- Sovereignty trend over time
Deploy on Hermes
# Clone to Hermes
cd ~/.timmy
git clone <this-repo> timmy-telemetry
cd timmy-telemetry
# Set your Gitea token (or it uses the default)
export GITEA_TOKEN=130c3811bf4bae84a724cc165d677573d0f89636
# Launch
docker compose up -d

Sovereignty Score Logic
The score starts pessimistic and improves as you migrate off cloud:
- Every local inference call pushes the inference dimension up
- Deploying Nostr identity (#13) will unlock the identity dimension
- Lightning/Cashu (#554, #555) will unlock the financial dimension
- Replacing cloud agent workers with local models pushes compute + tools up
Target: 100 = fully sovereign, $0 cloud bill, no external dependencies.
