Stable ID: FM-AUDIT-04
Source: modules/implementations/hermes.nix
Source status: new finding, not previously tracked
Disposition: open architecture work
Epic: #9
Blocked by: nothing

Problem

A fleet-level implementation record reaches into one host's directory:

# modules/implementations/hermes.nix:147-148
agentsSecrets = ../../outputs/hosts/odin/secrets.agents.yaml;
adHocSecrets  = ../../outputs/hosts/odin/secrets.ad-hoc.yaml;

These are let bindings, not options. Any second host selecting
contracts/agent-runtime decrypts odin's secrets file. hermesState = "/data/odin" is hardcoded the same way; user and linkUsers default to
larandar. implementations/forgejo-agents has the same coupling but at least
made it an option (sopsFile).

The record's header argues it bundles five things — Hermes, Modron, Firecrawl,
ByteRover, Ollama — "because they are only correct together", and that
splitting them would push coupling into the host root. 794 lines, one enable
flag.

Its own history refutes it. opencode became the sixth limb and did not go into
this record: it went into outputs/hosts/odin/configuration.nix:194 as a raw
systemd unit. When the next thing to add goes in the host file rather than the
record, the record is not the right home. See FM-AUDIT-07.

Acceptance

Either:

sopsFile-style options for both secrets files and the state root, with odin
supplying the values from its host file; or
the record renamed to what it is (an odin-only assembly), no longer answering
contracts/agent-runtime, and the contract left with no provider until a
portable one exists.

Plus: a decision on whether Firecrawl / ByteRover / Ollama / Modron stay in one
record, recorded here either way.

Provenance

Split from #9 (FM-ASPECT-AUDIT). Audit run 2026-08-04 by agent.odin against commit fc3b751, with modules/implementations/{forgejo-agents,hermes}.nix and outputs/hosts/odin/{configuration.nix,secrets.agents.yaml} dirty in the working copy.

Done in jj workspace ticket-sweep, taking the parameterise half of the either/or. stateDir, agentsSecretsFile and adHocSecretsFile are now mandatory options — no defaults, so a second host selecting contracts/agent-runtime must name its own — and odin supplies all three from its host file. The record keeps its name. Behavior-preserving: odin's system.build.toplevel drvPath is identical to the live default tree. just check passes. Offered on tango/ticket-sweep.

Verified delivered to main by PR #23 — ticket commit 2af29c8 refactor(hermes): host-owned state root and secrets files (FM-AUDIT-04, #12).

The ticket's fork — parameterise or rename to an odin-only assembly — resolved as parameterise. modules/implementations/hermes.nix (+41/-6) turns the let-bound agentsSecrets / adHocSecrets / hermesState into host-owned options; outputs/hosts/odin/configuration.nix (+10) now passes odin's own secrets.agents.yaml, secrets.ad-hoc.yaml and state root. The record no longer reaches into ../../outputs/hosts/odin/, so a second host selecting contracts/agent-runtime no longer decrypts odin's secrets.

Verified against forge/main @ 4cc8149. Close is blocked on authority — see #22.

Steward reconciliation — closing under law 13.

Delivered to main in PR #23 (merged 2026-08-04, merge commit 4cc81493).

Commit: 2af29c8 refactor(hermes): host-owned state root and secrets files (FM-AUDIT-04, #12)

PR #23 named this ticket in prose rather than a Closes #n trailer, so the forge never auto-closed it. Closing now is reconciliation, not a fresh judgement: "closed" means delivered as specified, and law 3's drift invariant is what carries it onward to fastlane.
