Multi-Host Cron Topology
Synthesis of how scheduled jobs are distributed across Eagle and Kraken. Co-occurs in tech/hermes-eagle-mac, tech/hermes-docker-kraken, concepts/watchlist-automation, and personal-os-agent-rules.
Design Principle
Jobs run on the host closest to their data. Eagle handles agent-intelligence tasks (briefs, wiki curation). Kraken handles media-pipeline tasks (watchlist, arr stack). Duplication is a bug.
Eagle (Mac M4) — Agent Jobs
| Job | Schedule | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
wiki-curation |
daily 02:00 | Crystallise vault → wiki (llm-wiki skill) |
vault-enrichment |
daily 03:00 | Enrich personal/family notes |
cross-enrichment |
daily 04:00 | Cross-namespace enrichment + memory curation |
proactive-research |
Sat 05:00 | Proactive gap research |
data-pipeline |
30min, workdays | sync.js + generate-status.js → status.md |
daily-brief |
workday morning | Morning brief to Zulip |
inbox-triage |
workday noon | Asana inbox triage |
weekly-review |
Fri evening | Weekly review |
Eagle crons are Hermes agent jobs — require LLM, vault access, Asana context. All run via Hermes native (not Docker). See tech/hermes-eagle-mac.
Kraken (RPi5) — Pipeline Jobs
| Job | Schedule | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
watchlist-nightly |
daily 01:00 | process-thumbs + resolve + sync-down/up |
watchlist-discover |
Sun 09:00 | KP API top films → watchlist Новинки |
on-download-complete |
event-triggered | media-pipeline: sort + Jellyfin rescan |
Kraken crons are shell scripts or Python3 — deterministic, no LLM. Run via Hermes cron on Kraken Hermes instance (port 8642, Docker). See tech/hermes-docker-kraken and concepts/watchlist-automation.
Migration History
- 2026-05-27:
watchlist-nightlyandwatchlist-discovermoved from Eagle to Kraken. Eagle was running them via SSH to Kraken which was fragile and required Eagle's network path to Kraken to be stable. Running on Kraken directly eliminates that dependency.
Pitfall: Job Duplication
If the same shell-script job runs on both Eagle and Kraken, the
Radarr/Sonarr API sees double requests. Symptom: duplicate ⬇️
entries or double-adds. Check: hermes cronjob list on both hosts.
