## Sandbox AI Integration (Added Feb 9, 2026)
|
||||
|
||||
**Purpose:** Keep exploratory AI (Gemini) in sync with production progress
|
||||
|
||||
**Auto-Update Trigger:**
|
||||
After completing ANY of these milestones:
|
||||
- Service deployment
|
||||
- Phase completion
|
||||
- Major infrastructure change
|
||||
- Architecture decision
|
||||
|
||||
**Update Command:**
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
bash automation/update-sandbox-briefing.sh
|
||||
git add docs/SANDBOX-BRIEFING.md project-files/SANDBOX-BRIEFING.md
|
||||
git commit -m "Update sandbox briefing: [what changed]"
|
||||
git push
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Gemini Access:**
|
||||
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frostystyle/firefrost-operations-manual/master/project-files/SANDBOX-BRIEFING.md
|
||||
|
||||
**Workflow:**
|
||||
1. Production work happens with Claude
|
||||
2. Auto-update sandbox briefing after milestones
|
||||
3. Gemini always has current context for brainstorming
|
||||
4. Ideas validated in sandbox → implemented in production

## Ticket #5ae82fd3 - Inter-Datacenter Routing (TX1 ↔ NC1)
|
||||
|
||||
**Date:** February 9, 2026
|
||||
**Type:** General Support
|
||||
**Priority:** Medium
|
||||
**Status:** ✅ RESOLVED
|
||||
**Resolution Time:** 4.5 hours
|
||||
|
||||
### Issue
|
||||
TX1 (Dallas) and NC1 (Charlotte) could not communicate directly. TX1 → NC1 ping returned "Destination Net Unreachable" immediately from gateway.
|
||||
|
||||
### Diagnostic Work Provided
|
||||
- Ping tests from both directions
|
||||
- Traceroute analysis (showed asymmetric routing)
|
||||
- Firewall verification (ruled out UFW blocking)
|
||||
- Network details: TX1 38.68.14.26, NC1 216.239.104.130
|
||||
|
||||
### Resolution
|
||||
**Brandon E (Staff):** "Just needed a route added on our end"
|
||||
|
||||
Simple routing table update on Breezehost infrastructure enabled full bidirectional communication between datacenters.
|
||||
|
||||
### Impact
|
||||
- ✅ NC1 now monitored by Uptime Kuma (100% uptime visible)
|
||||
- ✅ Cross-datacenter architecture options unlocked
|
||||
- ✅ Complete infrastructure visibility achieved
|
||||
|
||||
### Lessons
|
||||
- Comprehensive diagnostics = fast resolution
|
||||
- Don't assume limitations are intentional - ask!
|
||||
- Breezehost is extremely responsive to infrastructure requests
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## SERVICES MIGRATED (PHASE M1-M3)
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Phase M1: Gitea Migration
|
||||
**From:** TX1 Dallas (38.68.14.26)
|
||||
**To:** Command Center VPS (63.143.34.217)
|
||||
**URL:** git.firefrostgaming.com
|
||||
**Duration:** 90 minutes
|
||||
|
||||
**Challenges:**
|
||||
- Database corruption on TX1 (empty 52-byte file)
|
||||
- Fresh install required
|
||||
- Imported repositories from GitHub mirror
|
||||
|
||||
**Result:** Fully operational, all commits preserved
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Phase M2: Automation System
|
||||
**From:** TX1 Dallas
|
||||
**To:** Command Center VPS
|
||||
**Duration:** 60 minutes
|
||||
|
||||
**Challenges:**
|
||||
- Git credential authentication blocking daemon
|
||||
- Required credential caching (`git config credential.helper store`)
|
||||
|
||||
**Result:** 95% reduction in manual operations, fully integrated with new Gitea
|
||||
|
||||
### ✅ Phase M3: Uptime Kuma
|
||||
**From:** TX1 Dallas
|
||||
**To:** Command Center VPS
|
||||
**URL:** status.firefrostgaming.com
|
||||
**Duration:** 30 minutes
|
||||
|
||||
**Challenges:**
|
||||
- Node.js 18 incompatibility (required 20+)
|
||||
- Upgraded Node.js 18.20.8 → 20.20.0
|
||||
|
||||
**Result:** All monitors operational, 100% uptime across infrastructure
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## TX1 OPTIMIZATION
|
||||
|
||||
**Services Removed:**
|
||||
- MySQL (no databases in use)
|
||||
- Nginx (all web services migrated to VPS)
|
||||
- Wiki.js (never used, was failing)
|
||||
- Old Gitea files
|
||||
- Old Uptime Kuma files
|
||||
|
||||
**Disk Space Freed:** ~832MB
|
||||
|
||||
**Final State:**
|
||||
- Purpose: Game servers ONLY
|
||||
- Services: Pterodactyl Wings + 6 game servers + Docker
|
||||
- Running units: 31 (all essential)
|
||||
- Disk: 53GB / 911GB (6%)
|
||||
- Memory: 3.7GB / 251GB (1.5%)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## GITHUB MIRROR RESTORATION
|
||||
|
||||
**Issue:** Mirror broke during Gitea migration (fresh repo lost push mirror config)
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:**
|
||||
1. Deleted old mirror (capital F in Frostystyle)
|
||||
2. Created new mirror with lowercase username
|
||||
3. Generated fresh GitHub Personal Access Token
|
||||
4. Configured auto-sync on commit
|
||||
|
||||
**Result:** Commits automatically sync to GitHub within seconds
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## PROJECT FILES AUTOMATION
|
||||
|
||||
**Problem:** Version numbers in filenames required manual project file updates
|
||||
|
||||
**Solution:** Created `/project-files/` directory with stable filenames
|
||||
- `Firefrost_Vanilla_Manifest.md` (was v1.4, now versionless)
|
||||
- `session-handoff.md`
|
||||
- `USAGE.md`
|
||||
- `design-bible.md` (was v1_1, now versionless)
|
||||
|
||||
**Stable URLs (never change):**
|
||||
```
|
||||
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frostystyle/firefrost-operations-manual/master/project-files/Firefrost_Vanilla_Manifest.md
|
||||
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frostystyle/firefrost-operations-manual/master/project-files/session-handoff.md
|
||||
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frostystyle/firefrost-operations-manual/master/project-files/USAGE.md
|
||||
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/frostystyle/firefrost-operations-manual/master/project-files/design-bible.md
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Impact:** Project files auto-sync on every commit. No manual updates needed.
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## NC1 ROUTING RESOLUTION (MAJOR WIN!)
|
||||
|
||||
**Breezehost Ticket:** #5ae82fd3
|
||||
**Issue:** TX1 Dallas ↔ NC1 Charlotte could not communicate
|
||||
|
||||
**Diagnostic Work:**
|
||||
- TX1 → NC1 ping: "Destination Net Unreachable"
|
||||
- NC1 → TX1 traceroute: Timed out after 9 hops (asymmetric routing)
|
||||
- Firewall check: Not blocking (pure routing issue)
|
||||
|
||||
**Resolution:** "Just needed a route added on our end" - Brandon E (Breezehost Staff)
|
||||
**Resolution Time:** 4.5 hours
|
||||
|
||||
**Impact:**
|
||||
- ✅ NC1 now monitored by Uptime Kuma (100% uptime visible)
|
||||
- ✅ Complete infrastructure visibility achieved
|
||||
- ✅ Cross-datacenter architecture options unlocked (databases, proxies, backups)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## REPOSITORY ORGANIZATION
|
||||
|
||||
**Cleaned and Archived:**
|
||||
- Session files → `docs/archive/2026-02-09-session/`
|
||||
- Old automation results → `automation/archive/`
|
||||
- Test files removed (`test-mirror.txt`)
|
||||
|
||||
**Result:** Clean, professional repository structure
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## AUTOMATION WORKFLOW IMPROVEMENTS
|
||||
|
||||
**Old Workflow (3 commands):**
|
||||
1. Queue task
|
||||
2. `sleep 20`
|
||||
3. `cat results`
|
||||
|
||||
**New Workflow (1 command):**
|
||||
- Task includes auto-wait and auto-display
|
||||
- Michael pastes ONCE, sees results automatically
|
||||
|
||||
**Impact:** Further reduction in manual operations

|
||||
|
||||
## BEST PRACTICES ESTABLISHED
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Cloudflare DNS Before Certbot
|
||||
**Order:**
|
||||
1. Configure service
|
||||
2. Configure Nginx (without SSL)
|
||||
3. **UPDATE CLOUDFLARE DNS** ← CRITICAL
|
||||
4. Wait 2-3 minutes
|
||||
5. Run Certbot
|
||||
6. Enable Nginx site
|
||||
|
||||
**Why:** Prevents SSL validation failures
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Stable Filenames for Version-Tracked Documents
|
||||
**Bad:** `infrastructure-manifest-v1.4.md` (changes every version)
|
||||
**Good:** `infrastructure-manifest.md` (version tracked inside file)
|
||||
|
||||
**Why:** Prevents project file sync issues
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Automation System for All Operations
|
||||
**Always use automation queue for:**
|
||||
- Service deployments
|
||||
- Configuration changes
|
||||
- File operations
|
||||
- Documentation updates
|
||||
|
||||
**Why:** 95% reduction in manual commands, accessibility win
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## LESSONS LEARNED
|
||||
|
||||
### Technical
|
||||
1. VPS tier superior for management services (plug-and-play)
|
||||
2. Dedicated tier optimal for game servers (performance)
|
||||
3. Database backups can be deceptive (file exists ≠ has data)
|
||||
4. Git credential caching essential for automation
|
||||
5. Node.js version requirements matter (check before install)
|
||||
6. Don't assume limitations are intentional - ask provider
|
||||
|
||||
### Workflow
|
||||
1. Small wins build momentum (3 services in 8 hours)
|
||||
2. Documentation in real-time prevents context loss
|
||||
3. Checkpoints catch issues early
|
||||
4. Comprehensive diagnostics = fast support resolution
|
||||
5. Automation reduces strain significantly
|
||||
|
||||
### Accessibility
|
||||
1. One-paste workflow sustainable for marathon sessions
|
||||
2. 8-hour session achievable with automation + breaks
|
||||
3. Clear stopping points prevent burnout
|
||||
4. Health always comes first (Jack's alerts respected)

## AUTOMATION SYSTEM
|
||||
|
||||
**Location:** `/root/firefrost-work/firefrost-operations-manual/automation/`
|
||||
|
||||
**How It Works:**
|
||||
1. Michael pastes ONE command to queue a task
|
||||
2. Daemon executes automatically (10-second polling)
|
||||
3. Results committed back to Git
|
||||
4. 95% reduction in manual operations
|
||||
|
||||
**Why:** Michael's hand limitations require minimal typing
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## KEY TECHNICAL PRINCIPLES
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Set-It-And-Forget-It:** Services must self-heal (systemd, automation)
|
||||
2. **Documentation First:** Everything documented as it happens
|
||||
3. **Accessibility Always:** Small code blocks, clear steps, automation
|
||||
4. **Security By Default:** SSH keys only, IP-specific rules, regular updates
|
||||
5. **Git-First Workflow:** All changes version-controlled
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## COMMUNICATION STYLE
|
||||
|
||||
**Michael's Preferences:**
|
||||
- Direct, technical, collaborative
|
||||
- Appreciates self-deprecating humor
|
||||
- Values transparency and thoroughness
|
||||
- "Insomnia-fueled engineering marathons"
|
||||
- Frequent health check-ins appreciated
|
||||
|
||||
**Response Style:**
|
||||
- Be technical but not condescending
|
||||
- Provide concrete examples
|
||||
- Acknowledge accessibility constraints
|
||||
- Celebrate wins (big and small)
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## BREEZEHOST RELATIONSHIP
|
||||
|
||||
**Provider:** Breezehost (all infrastructure hosted here)
|
||||
**Key Contact:** Jon Beard (Network Specialist)
|
||||
**Philosophy:** "Forever home" provider, not transactional
|
||||
|
||||
**Recent Win:**
|
||||
- Ticket #5ae82fd3 (Feb 9, 2026)
|
||||
- Inter-datacenter routing issue (TX1 ↔ NC1)
|
||||
- Resolved in 4.5 hours
|
||||
- "Like always, you guys are legends" - Michael
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## CURRENT CHALLENGES TO EXPLORE
|
||||
|
||||
**Authentication:**
|
||||
- Phase 1: Manual (launch to 20 subscribers)
|
||||
- Phase 2: Webhook automation (20+)
|
||||
- Phase 3: SSO/OAuth (100+, if needed)
|
||||
|
||||
**DDoS Protection:**
|
||||
- Need "good enough" solution
|
||||
- Not over-engineered like Phase 0
|
||||
- Options: Cloudflare Spectrum, simplified GRE, hybrid
|
||||
|
||||
**Sustainability:**
|
||||
- Infrastructure must run with minimal intervention
|
||||
- Family planning requires "set-it-and-forget-it" reliability
|
||||
- Revenue must support operations ($250+/month)
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## SANDBOX USAGE GUIDELINES
|
||||
|
||||
**Good Sandbox Topics:**
|
||||
- Architecture brainstorming
|
||||
- Feature planning (Discord bots, integrations)
|
||||
- Subscriber experience design
|
||||
- Marketing/social media strategy
|
||||
- Technical exploration (new tools, approaches)
|
||||
|
||||
**Keep in Production (Claude):**
|
||||
- Actual deployments
|
||||
- Infrastructure changes
|
||||
- Git commits
|
||||
- Documentation updates
|
||||
- Troubleshooting active issues
|
||||
|
||||
**Reason:** Production Claude has full context, automation access, and Git integration. Sandbox AI is for "what if" without risk.
