Requires a real GB10 or DGX Spark cluster, an Ansible/Python setup, and the Hermes agent to be useful.

in plain english

This project is a starter kit meant to let an AI assistant called Hermes Agent manage a cluster of GB10 or DGX Spark computers using Ansible, a tool for automating server setup and configuration tasks across many machines at once. The idea is that an operator could tell Hermes something like discover my GB10 nodes, health check the cluster, or deploy this vLLM image to node two, and Hermes would run the right Ansible scripts to make it happen safely. The README is upfront that this is a planned repository rather than a finished one. Right now it has a runnable skeleton: an example inventory of servers, a health check playbook, a cautious provisioning setup, and some scripts for syncing model files, deploying Docker images, running AI models, and collecting logs as evidence. Many other pieces described in the file listing, such as specific automation roles and network configuration playbooks, are marked as planned and not yet built. The actual step by step plan for finishing them lives in a separate implementation plan document inside the repository. The design principles emphasize safety over speed: the project states that destructive actions should always have a dry run option first, that network changes should never be applied automatically in a way that could strand a server with no way back in, and that a task should not be considered done until log files or health checks prove it worked. Cluster information is meant to live in configuration files rather than being remembered only in a chat conversation with the AI. This project is aimed at people who already run their own small cluster of specialized GB10 or DGX Spark hardware and want an AI assistant, specifically Hermes, to operate that cluster through Ansible instead of manual commands. It assumes familiarity with Ansible, Python virtual environments, and server administration, and is not something a beginner without a cluster to manage would have a use for.
