wait_for_build slept before its first poll, so a build that had already
finished still bought a full interval of silence. On stage that reads as the
script having missed the result - the build goes red in Jenkins and the
terminal sits there. Polling first and sleeping after removes it entirely: a
finished build now returns in under a second, measured.
The interval drops from ten seconds to three for the same reason. The wait is
dead air in front of an audience and a Jenkins status read is cheap. The
budget is now expressed in seconds rather than poll counts, so shortening the
interval does not silently shorten the timeout.
This is only the script's own latency. Ariadne's autotriage cron is * * * * *,
so an incident still takes up to a minute to appear after a build fails, and
no amount of polling here changes that.

The run tab said a defect was seeded and then moved on. The audience had to
take on trust both that a change was made and that the diagnosis Hermes
produced two minutes later actually matched it. Printing the diff first closes
that gap: they watch the wrong line go in, then watch a model find the same
line without being told where it is.
Placed before the commit rather than after the push because this is the only
moment in the demo where a human changes any code, and it is worth being seen
as such. The short sha follows the push so the commit on screen can be matched
to the one Jenkins builds.

The Hermes stage is where the demo claims a model made the call. It showed the
stored JSON and named the run id, which asks the audience to take the rest on
trust. It now prints the console link for that exact run, so the claim can be
opened on screen instead of described.
Same route the pull request links to, so following either lands on the same
page.

hermes_code_demo.sh run crashed before it did anything, with a JSON traceback
pointing at the parser rather than the cause. Jenkins tree selectors use square
brackets; this curl build treats them as glob metacharacters and declines to
send the request, so the body came back empty and json.load reported column 1.
Encoded, and an empty body now says which job and which Jenkins rather than
raising from inside the parser. The crash was harmless as crashes go - it
happened before the defect was seeded, so nothing was pushed - but it happened
at the exact moment a demo starts.

One script with a 'fixture' and a 'code' subcommand meant the wrong subcommand
was always one word away, in front of an audience, with different blast radii
behind each: the triage demo touches only a ConfigMap, the code demo pushes to
a repository and deletes issues. Those should not share a command line.
Each demo is now its own driver with the same five verbs - monitor, reset,
preflight, run, status - so knowing one teaches the other. What they genuinely
share (credentials, Jenkins access, the tick reader, the lab-wide preflight
checks) moved to hermes_demo_lib.sh rather than being duplicated, because the
reason to split was clarity at the command line, not two copies of the same
helper drifting apart.
Each reset now covers only its own demo. The triage reset no longer reaches
into a Gitea repository it never writes to, and the code reset owns the
repository cleanup entirely.
The credentials file is now hermes_demo.env since both read it; the old
hermes_triage_demo.env is still sourced as a fallback so a filled-in file
keeps working, and both names stay git-ignored.

The scripts said "flow chart" while the artifact the audience is following
has a name. Telling a room to follow along on the flow chart and then handing
them something titled Test Automation Diagram makes them hunt for the match.

The code demo seeds its defect by pushing to master, and the fix only lands if
someone merges the pull request - which, by design, nobody does during a demo.
So master stays broken, and reset only printed "revert it before demoing"
while leaving it that way. The second run of the day then aborted on "defect
already present" before anything started.
Reset now reverts it on master. The substitution is anchored so it cannot
match an already-correct divisor, which keeps reset idempotent: running it on
a healthy repository changes nothing rather than corrupting the file.

The diagnosis dump was clipped at 16 lines, which was already tight and now
truncates the stored outcome once a suggested remediation is present - the
audience would see the JSON cut off mid-object at exactly the moment the
interesting field appears.
Also says what that field means when it shows up, since a proposal is easy to
misread as something Ariadne is about to do. It is inert: no gate reads it.

The three categories now appear in the deployment next to the action
allowlist, and the monitor prints both at the policy gate so the difference is
visible during a demo rather than asserted: two ids Ariadne may execute on its
own authority, three categories it may only ask Hermes to propose a patch for.

Several stages assumed the fixture job. On a code-demo run they would have
read the fixture ConfigMap, which is unrelated to that job, and asserted that
a field changing from unhealthy to healthy was the repair - flatly false when
the outcome is a pull request. The route stage would also have claimed the
source-proposal branch was not taken during the run that takes it.
The stages now branch on the job: the route explains that a source fix is not
a registered action and so takes the proposal branch; the response points at
the pull request recorded on the incident; and the verify stage says the
branch build validates the proposal and that nothing merges without a human
whatever it reports.

Gitea wedged at 2073Mi against a 2Gi limit: its API stopped answering even on
its own loopback, and the repeated SSH LoginGraceTime drops in its log were
starvation symptoms rather than a separate fault. Raised to 3Gi.
The reset command's Gitea calls had no --max-time, so a slow service became an
indefinite hang with no output - the script appeared frozen after 'clearing
bstein/hermes-code-demo'. They now fail after 25 seconds and say so.

Five corrections to how the monitor explains itself, plus code-demo support.
The authorization is now described as what it is: a match between an action
Ariadne already has code to perform, an action id Hermes is permitted to
request, and the action Hermes actually recommended. Hermes cannot add to that
registry, and the recommendation proceeds only because it names something
already in it. The editorial line about pull requests is gone.
The repair now reads as a change rather than a value: the field said unhealthy
when the build failed and says healthy because Ariadne just patched it.
The rebuild stage says plainly that the operational branch is complete and
that neither the human-required response nor the optional source proposal is
entered, rather than leaving the reader to infer it from silence.
Inspectable outputs states that on the chart it is the 'records and artifacts'
edge out of the whole response box, not out of one branch - every path ends
there. The layout makes it look like it belongs to the proposal path alone.
follows hermes-code-demo, which takes the proposal branch: the
stages now read as a patch proposal and a pull request instead of being
mislabelled an escalation.

The bundle stage printed the job allowlist, which says nothing about what was
actually sent. It now samples the bundle itself, rebuilt with the same
collector Ariadne used - durable, because a finished build's console does not
change - and trimmed hard, since the point is to show what each source
contributes rather than to reprint it:
jenkins.console_failures : 1 region(s), truncated=False
| ERROR: Demo fixture check failed for incident hermes-triage-demo/34
jenkins.failed_tests : 0
log_evidence.records : 35 from OpenSearch kube-*
| [jenkins] Using /home/jenkins/agent/remoting as a remoting work directory
The diagnosis now also carries run_id and run_seconds, so the run can be
opened in the Hermes dashboard to see the prompt it was given and every tool
call it made - the request, not just the answer.

The detection stage read the fixture ConfigMap, which is a live value. Every
stage describes a moment that has passed, and by the time detection is
narrated the repair has already run - so it printed 'healthy' and implied the
fixture had never failed, contradicting the premise of the whole run. Replay
made it certain rather than occasional.
It now prints the incident's recorded state changes, which stay true
afterwards:
21:48:03 detected {result: FAILURE, ...}
21:48:18 diagnosed {classification: known_demo_fixture_failure, ...}
21:48:18 repairing {action: repair_demo_fixture}
21:48:18 awaiting_rebuild {repair: configmap_patch, ...}
21:49:03 resolved {resolved_by_build: 35}
The fixture read stays on the response stage, where healthy is the point.

The Hermes stage proved only that a pod was running, when the substantive
evidence is the JSON Hermes returned; it now reads that from the audit trail,
so classification, confidence and requested action are on screen. The policy
gates stage never showed the verdict it was describing; authorized and
authorize_reason now appear with it.
The chart paths were paraphrases. They are now the node labels from
mermaid/TestAutomation.mmd verbatim - Response check, Scoped repair guard,
Action authorizer, Action registry, Scoped ConfigMap repair, Action result -
so a line on screen can be found on the diagram. The checklist carries them too.
The Optional source proposal branch was silently absent rather than explained.
The route stage now states it was not taken and why: a fixture repair is an
operational action, and source fixes are not actions at all.
Also widened the log window and its timeout; the fetch occasionally exceeded
25s and dropped a poll.

It read only the newest tick from a --tail=400 window. Ariadne now emits
roughly two hundred lines per tick, so that window held about two ticks, and a
step that lasted a single tick - the repair, most importantly - vanished if a
poll landed after it. Build 30 was triaged, repaired and resolved correctly
while the monitor printed nothing at all.
The window is now time-based, and every tick inside it is replayed rather than
just the last. mark() was already idempotent, so replaying is safe and the
monitor recovers stages it was not running for.

An audience watching a dashboard has to take the result on trust. Watching
kubectl run against the cluster and reading the raw answer is the difference
between a demonstration and an assertion, so every read is now printed before
it runs and its output shown beneath.
Each stage also names the service UI worth looking at when something changes
there: the Jenkins job as the build goes red and again when the rebuild starts
on its own, the Hermes dashboard as the agent run appears, the Grafana triage
panels and the filed issues at the end.

An audience following mermaid/TestAutomation.mmd needs to know which edge off
the route diamond was taken, which was the one thing the output left them to
infer. It now quotes the chart's own labels - authorized action, human
required, and the optional code path - and the docstring states where the
reporting is coarser than the diagram.

A rerun should start from nothing. DEMO_REPOS is the entire blast radius and
is deliberately explicit: a real service's issues are genuine triage records,
and clearing them to tidy a demo would destroy the evidence the system exists
to produce.

The resolving tick remains the newest one until another incident opens, so the

reset restores only what the demo itself creates: the fixture ConfigMap, the
demo repository's open repair pull requests and their branches. Real service
repositories are deliberately untouched - those issues are genuine triage
records, and deleting them to tidy a demo would destroy the evidence the
system exists to produce.
monitor streams the flow in the stages of mermaid/TestAutomation.mmd, so a
second terminal can be followed against the chart: Detect and gather, Hermes
analysis, Ariadne policy gates, Ariadne response, Inspectable outputs. Each
stage prints the evidence that moved it, since the claim the chart makes is
that every step is answerable from data rather than asserted. Read-only.

The allowlist is the outermost safety boundary - a job absent from it is never
touched, whatever fails - so it is worth reading at a glance rather than as a
comma-separated setting value echoed verbatim.

The script demanded JENKINS_USER and JENKINS_TOKEN in the environment and said
only 'set JENKINS_USER' when they were missing, which is not enough to act on.
It now sources scripts/ops/hermes_triage_demo.env, git-ignored so it can hold
real tokens, and names that file when credentials are absent. An example file
records what belongs in it.
The fixture command also still polled for a hermes-demo-repair-<build> Job.
That Job stopped existing when the repair became an in-process ConfigMap
patch, so the command would have waited its full 400 seconds and then reported
nothing. It now watches the fixture returning to healthy, which is what
actually happens.

Two conditions silently break a rehearsal. A saturated Kubernetes agent pool
leaves the demo build queued reporting that all nodes are offline, and an open
hermes-repair PR makes the duplicate guard refuse a new proposal. Report both
so the operator sees them before starting rather than mid-demo.

ROOT still used parents[1], which resolved to scripts/ once the renderer
moved into scripts/render/. Every --build run wrote a phantom
scripts/services/monitoring tree and silently left the real dashboards
untouched. Points at the repo root again and removes the stray tree.
Also adds Hermes triage panels to the Atlas Testing dashboard: open
escalations awaiting a human, automated actions succeeded, Hermes
diagnosis latency, actions by result, and incident state by job.
