SOUL.md now defines:
- Clawdie (bare-metal service): production target — Colibri + zot
on bare FreeBSD (ZFS RAID1, PostgreSQL + pgvector, bhyve VMs,
Bastille jails), developed from USB, deployed as rc.d service
- Keeps the dual-OS survivability framing below it
domedog is Docker-free by choice (overhead not yet worth it); the probe in
HOST-MATRIX confirms it. Reframe the "Who we are" bullet so Linux stays the
daily driver / ecosystem reach, but Docker is scoped to debby and domedog is
noted as running lean on the host. Survivability framing is unchanged.

debby is a laptop that powers off periodically; osa is the always-on VPS and
already hosts the colibri board. The hub must live where it never disappears, so
the orchestrator role moves to hermes-osa; debby drops to secondary agent + soul
backup.
- AGENTS.md, HOST-MATRIX, agent-roster, tailscale-network: role swap + always-on/
intermittent facts
- HOST-MATRIX + CAPABILITY-ROUTING: corrected 'debby orchestrator dispatches' ->
osa hosts the board, debby/domedog are clients
- integration doc + SOUL/project-structure survivability lines reconciled

- Don't put all eggs in one basket — provider redundancy mirrors OS redundancy
- DeepSeek, OpenRouter, Z.AI/GLM, local llama.cpp — spread across providers
- A provider outage shouldn't be a collective outage
- 'the same bug rarely hits two fundamentally different platforms at once'
- 'degraded' / 'hindered' instead of 'killed' / 'died'
- Bastille jails named explicitly
- SOUL.md: rewritten identity — Linux/Docker for reach, FreeBSD/jails
for resilience. A vulnerability that kills one OS won't kill the other.
- AGENTS.md: agent matrix now includes isolation column (Docker/Bastille)
- memories/curated/project-structure.md: dual-OS strategy table
- verify_facts_probe.py: proper Docker detection (socket check, daemon status)
We are not betting on one OS. We are betting that catastrophic events
won't hit both platforms simultaneously.
- detect_os() runs first, builds Linux/FreeBSD/Darwin command map
- All subsequent probes can use the map for safe cross-platform ops
- SOUL.md: explicit callout — Linux vs FreeBSD command differences
(grep, sed, dd, sha256sum, bash, make, pkg vs apt, device names)
are the primary reason to verify facts before acting
