marfrit a144f57e1b v0.2.0: split — public framework only, runbook fetched from private host
The agent and skill prose used to ship inside this package, which exposed
home-infra topology (hosts, IPs, AINs, container layout, /opt/herding cred
paths) to anyone with the public package URL.

This release moves to a fetcher model:
- Public package ships only the plumbing: claude-his-fetch + claude-his-install.
- Runbook content lives on a private host at $HIS_CONTEXT_HOST:/opt/his-context/.
- claude-his-fetch (rsync over SSH) populates ~/.cache/claude-his-agent/.
- claude-his-install symlinks ~/.claude/agents/his.md + ~/.claude/skills/his
  into the cache.

History rewritten — the previous tree contained sensitive operational details.
A bundle of the pre-rewrite tree is preserved out-of-band by the maintainer.

# claude-his-agent
A Claude Code subagent + skill for a personal home-infrastructure assistant
("His" — Home Infrastructure Specialist). Designed so a sibling Claude on any
host in your fleet can summon a single, consistent infra runbook instead of
re-learning your topology every session.
## Distribution model
This package ships **only the plumbing** — a fetcher and an installer. The
actual runbook (agent prompt + skill cheatsheet) lives on a private host that
you control and is pulled into a per-user cache the first time you run
`claude-his-install`. None of the infra context is in the public package or
its git history.
```
public package (this repo) → /usr/bin/claude-his-fetch
/usr/bin/claude-his-install
/usr/share/doc/claude-his-agent/README.md
private host (you set up) → /opt/his-context/agent.md
($HIS_CONTEXT_HOST, default hertz) /opt/his-context/skill/SKILL.md
/opt/his-context/scripts/...
per-user cache (after fetch) → ~/.cache/claude-his-agent/
~/.claude wiring (after install) → ~/.claude/agents/his.md -> cache/agent.md
~/.claude/skills/his -> cache/skill
```
`claude-his-fetch` is a thin `rsync -a -e ssh "$HOST:$PATH" "$CACHE/"`. The
trust boundary is your existing SSH key auth on `$HIS_CONTEXT_HOST`.
## Install
```bash
# Debian (trixie/bookworm):
sudo apt install claude-his-agent
claude-his-install
# Arch / ALARM:
sudo pacman -S claude-his-agent
claude-his-install
```
`claude-his-install` runs `claude-his-fetch` if the cache is empty, then
symlinks `~/.claude/agents/his.md` + `~/.claude/skills/his` to the cache.
## Refresh
Re-run `claude-his-fetch` whenever the runbook on the private host changes.
A weekly cron is reasonable:
```cron
0 4 * * 0 $HOME/.local/bin/claude-his-fetch >/dev/null 2>&1
```
(or just call `/usr/bin/claude-his-fetch` from any path the user can read.)
## Configuration
| Env var | Default | Purpose |
|----------------------|--------------------------------------|---------|
| `HIS_CONTEXT_HOST` | `hertz` | SSH target serving the context blob |
| `HIS_CONTEXT_PATH` | `/opt/his-context/` | Source dir on the host (trailing slash) |
| `HIS_CONTEXT_CACHE` | `~/.cache/claude-his-agent` | Local cache dir |
`$HIS_CONTEXT_HOST` resolves through the user's `~/.ssh/config` and known_hosts,
so an alias like `Host hertz / HostName 192.0.2.10 / User youruser / IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_ed25519`
keeps the rest of the stack hostname-agnostic.
## Setting up the private host
On `$HIS_CONTEXT_HOST`, lay out:
```
/opt/his-context/
├── agent.md # subagent system prompt (the "take over" form)
├── skill/
│ └── SKILL.md # skill cheatsheet (the "lookup" form)
└── scripts/ # any helpers the runbook references
└── ...
```
Owner whichever account the fleet logs in as; mode `0644` for files, `0755`
for dirs. The directory does not need to be world-readable — `claude-his-fetch`
authenticates as the SSH user.
## Source
Public framework: `git.reauktion.de/marfrit/claude-his-agent`
(this repo — no infra context, safe to mirror).
Bug reports / runbook gaps for the *private* runbook stay private; for the
public plumbing (fetcher, installer, build), file against this repo's issues.
## License
Personal infra tooling; framework code is permissive (see LICENSE if shipped).
The runbook content (private) is not redistributable.
