# Hermes Automated Triage Demo — Runbook
|
||
|
||
How to arm, run, watch, and roll back the automated failure-to-repair demo.
|
||
Architecture background: `knowledge/hermes-automated-triage-24h-plan.md`.
|
||
|
||
## What the loop does
|
||
|
||
```text
|
||
You arm the failure (SEED_FAILURE=true)
|
||
-> Jenkins job hermes-triage-demo fails (fixture reads "unhealthy")
|
||
-> test-runner pod also writes the incident JSON to stdout
|
||
(Fluent Bit ships it to OpenSearch kube-*)
|
||
-> Ariadne polls the job every minute, opens incident <job>/<build>
|
||
-> Ariadne bundles Jenkins evidence + bounded OpenSearch excerpts
|
||
-> Ariadne calls the Hermes Agent API (/v1/runs) with
|
||
$triage-titan-test-failures
|
||
-> Hermes returns schema-valid diagnosis + requested_action
|
||
-> Ariadne authorizes (nine gates) and, if remediation is enabled,
|
||
creates Job hermes-demo-repair-<build> (writes "healthy")
|
||
-> Ariadne triggers ONE rebuild with SEED_FAILURE=false
|
||
-> rebuild passes -> incident resolved
|
||
Anything else -> human_required metric -> vmalert HermesTriageHumanRequired
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Arming the demo
|
||
|
||
Jenkins UI: `https://ci.bstein.dev/job/hermes-triage-demo/` → *Build with
|
||
Parameters* → check `SEED_FAILURE` → Build.
|
||
|
||
CLI (any Jenkins user API token):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
curl -u <user>:<token> -X POST \
|
||
"https://ci.bstein.dev/job/hermes-triage-demo/buildWithParameters?SEED_FAILURE=true"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
That is the only manual step. Everything after the red build is automatic.
|
||
|
||
## Expected timings
|
||
|
||
- Seeded build goes red: ~1–3 min (mostly agent-pod scheduling; longer if
|
||
the Jenkins agent capacity of 5 is busy with other CI builds).
|
||
- Ariadne detection: ≤60 s after the build turns red (1-minute schedule).
|
||
- Evidence + Hermes diagnosis: typically 15–60 s (live rehearsal measured
|
||
~10 s model time on gpt-5.6-terra; budgeted timeout is 420 s).
|
||
- Repair Job: seconds.
|
||
- Rebuild to green: ~1–3 min (agent scheduling again).
|
||
- Total failure-to-green: **~5 minutes typical**; the only "silent" phases
|
||
are the two Jenkins agent-pod waits.
|
||
|
||
## Watching it live
|
||
|
||
- Jenkins: `https://ci.bstein.dev/job/hermes-triage-demo/` (red build N,
|
||
then green build N+1 with `SEED_FAILURE=false`).
|
||
- Ariadne incident state:
|
||
`GET http://ariadne.maintenance/api/internal/audit/events` (in-cluster) or
|
||
`/api/admin/audit/events` (Keycloak JWT) — event types
|
||
`hermes_autotriage_incident`, `hermes_autotriage_diagnosis`,
|
||
`hermes_autotriage_action`. Status flow:
|
||
`detected → diagnosed → repairing → awaiting_rebuild → resolved`.
|
||
- Metrics (VictoriaMetrics / Grafana Explore):
|
||
`ariadne_hermes_triage_incident{jenkins_job="hermes-triage-demo"}`,
|
||
`ariadne_hermes_triage_action_total`,
|
||
`ariadne_hermes_triage_duration_seconds`.
|
||
- Repair evidence: `kubectl -n hermes-triage-demo get jobs` shows
|
||
`hermes-demo-test-<N>` (failed) and `hermes-demo-repair-<N>` (succeeded);
|
||
both TTL-clean after 1 h.
|
||
- Hermes side: the run appears in the dashboard at
|
||
`https://agent.bstein.dev` (session/run history).
|
||
- Escalation path: alert `HermesTriageHumanRequired` in vmalert
|
||
(`vmalert-atlas-availability` deployment, 1 m interval, `for: 2m`)
|
||
fires to Alertmanager for any `human_required` incident.
|
||
|
||
## Demonstrating safe escalation (second path)
|
||
|
||
Any failure that does not match the demo-fixture signature — or any
|
||
invalid/low-confidence/unknown-action Hermes response — ends as
|
||
`status="human_required"` with **no mutation**. The simplest live demo:
|
||
temporarily set `ARIADNE_HERMES_AUTOREMEDIATION_ENABLED=false` (see below)
|
||
and arm the failure; Ariadne diagnoses fully but executes nothing, and the
|
||
alert fires instead.
|
||
|
||
## Kill switch and rollback
|
||
|
||
- Instant behavioral off-switch (Flux-managed, in
|
||
`services/maintenance/apps/ariadne-deployment.yaml`):
|
||
`ARIADNE_HERMES_AUTOREMEDIATION_ENABLED=false` → diagnose-only.
|
||
`ARIADNE_HERMES_AUTOTRIAGE_ENABLED=false` → fully off.
|
||
- The automatic loop can only ever: create Jobs named
|
||
`hermes-demo-repair-*` in namespace `hermes-triage-demo`, and trigger
|
||
rebuilds of allowlisted jobs (`ARIADNE_HERMES_AUTOTRIAGE_JOB_ALLOWLIST`,
|
||
currently `hermes-triage-demo` only). One action + one rebuild per
|
||
incident, ever (storage-backed idempotency).
|
||
- Full teardown: remove `hermes-triage-demo` from
|
||
`clusters/atlas/flux-system/applications/kustomization.yaml` (Flux prunes
|
||
the namespace) and delete the `pipelineJob('hermes-triage-demo')` block
|
||
from `services/jenkins/configmap-jcasc.yaml`.
|
||
|
||
## Credentials
|
||
|
||
- Ariadne → Hermes: `Authorization: Bearer` key shared via the
|
||
`hermes-api-server-key` Secret present in both `hermes` and `maintenance`
|
||
namespaces (Hermes's init container seeds it into the persistent `.env`).
|
||
NOTE: currently manually created (Vault migration pending — see plan
|
||
handoff); rotating = write new value to both Secrets, restart hermes
|
||
deployment and ariadne deployment.
|
||
- Ariadne → Jenkins: existing `JENKINS_API_USER/TOKEN` from Vault
|
||
(`atlas/maintenance/ariadne-db`).
