Based on SOC occupation classification
Almanac reference for dates, holidays, time zones, business days, and astronomical events. Use when checking if a date is a business day, calculating date differences, converting time zones, looking up holidays, or checking for astronomical events like solstices, equinoxes, and moon phases. Also for seasonal calculations, workday schedules, and calendar arithmetic.
Toyota Production System (TPS) and Toyota Way for software engineering — lean thinking, waste elimination, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement. Use when identifying waste (muda/muri/mura), running blameless postmortems, doing 5 Whys, writing A3 problem statements, or connecting lean philosophy to TRIZ contradiction resolution.
Local multilingual translation via Ollama — 119 languages, no API key, no network, no data leaves the machine. Use when translating to/from Japanese, Chinese, Korean, French, Spanish, German, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, or any other language. Also for localization, i18n text, and roundtrip validation. Qwen3:32b on Apple Silicon — faster and cheaper than cloud APIs.
TRIZ contradiction matrix oracle for software and systems design. Use when improving one quality worsens another — speed vs correctness, isolation vs sharing, autonomy vs control, simplicity vs completeness. Trigger phrases: "tradeoff", "tension between", "can't have both", "worsens when", "at the cost of", "faster but less reliable", "more isolated but harder to share". Not for bugs, merge conflicts, or tool choices. Prerequisite: triz binary must be installed (run `triz doctor` to verify).
Deploy and manage software on Linux/BSD fleet hosts (Pis, NAS, workstations) via Ansible. Use when user mentions deploy, ansible, fleet, hosts, inventory, or deployment.
Use when operating, debugging, or deploying the elixir-gastown Elixir/BEAM fleet — cluster federation, release builds, worker deploys, seccomp fixes, sname/name distribution issues, rate limiter, or any gastown service on Pi workers or coordinator nodes.

IRC server: 10.0.3.203 (irclaw macvlan container on QNAS 10.0.2.35), TLS
Nick to use: ryan
Primary channel: #agents
# Connect via irssi on the IRC container host
ssh ubuntu@10.0.3.203 'irssi --connect=10.0.3.203 --nick=ryan --tls'
# Send a single message and exit (non-interactive)
ssh ubuntu@10.0.3.203 'irssi --connect=10.0.3.203 --nick=ryan --tls \
--eval "/msg #agents hello" --eval "/quit"' 2>/dev/null
# Or use netcat directly for TLS (requires openssl s_client)
echo -e "NICK ryan\r\nUSER ryan 0 * :ryan\r\nJOIN #agents\r\nPRIVMSG #agents :message\r\nQUIT\r\n" \
| openssl s_client -connect 10.0.3.203:6697 -quiet 2>/dev/null
# Post to #agents channel
ssh ubuntu@10.0.3.203 "echo 'PRIVMSG #agents :your message here' | \
openssl s_client -connect 127.0.0.1:6697 -quiet 2>/dev/null" &
# DM a specific agent (e.g. irclaw bot named "ztudio")
ssh ubuntu@10.0.3.203 "echo 'PRIVMSG ztudio :run status' | \
openssl s_client -connect 127.0.0.1:6697 -quiet 2>/dev/null" &
The IRC host is reachable via ansible group or direct:
# inventory entry
irc-host ansible_host=10.0.3.203 ansible_user=ubuntu
ansible -i inventory irc-host -m shell -a 'irssi --connect=...'
Agents announce themselves on join. Common names:
ubrpi407-zclaw)i9-agent, i7-agent| Situation | Use IRC when |
|---|---|
| Check agent alive | ping via DM faster than SSH |
| Broadcast to fleet | single #agents message vs ansible loop |
| SSH unreachable | IRC runs independently of gastown/ansible |
| Real-time coordination | watch #agents during deploys |
| Out-of-band commands | agent can exec commands and report back |
