How one engineer runs a 24/7 multi-agent AI stack across bare metal. Opinionated. Dogfooded. Broken-and-fixed in production.
Solomon's Cookbook: 61 production-tested recipes for running long-lived AI agents in tandem with daily coding harnesses. Not a framework. A record of what is actually deployed, what broke, and how it was fixed.
Cron Patterns
The scheduling stack I actually run: systemd timers for OS plumbing, crontab lines that fire reviewed Brigade runbooks, OpenClaw cron for agent tasks, and a small n8n for watchdogs. Pick the wrong…

Multi-model orchestration. One orchestrator, many models, escalation lanes, and a multi-vendor worker fleet behind it. Most of these guides assume OpenClaw as the agent framework, but the patterns…
15 recipes Chapter IIAutomation
Anything scheduled, hooked, or sandbox-wrapped. The decision tree for "where does this go" lives in cron-patterns.md - start there.
8 recipes Chapter IIISelf-hosted infrastructure
The homelab. Hypervisor decisions, container layout, network storage, off-host backup, integration with daily-driver desktop, and surviving upgrades.
9 recipes Chapter IVSecurity
Defense in depth across host, agents, network, and outbound boundary. Plus what to do when the agent does something it shouldn't.
7 recipes Chapter VKnowledge management
How durable knowledge flows: cards, indexes, handoffs, sync. The goal is "future-me can pick up cold."
7 recipes Chapter VIHardware & host
The physical layer. Choosing the box, partitioning the disk, deciding what the host OS owns vs what gets virtualized.
3 recipes Chapter VIITools
Index of tools shipped from this stack - MCPs, dashboards, helpers - and how they fit together.
