[Claude Code] Session Checkpoint¶
- Justin caught two stale assumptions: (1) HA IP changed to 192.168.86.180 (fleet.md correct, ~/.ssh/config still had .70), (2) media-server + immich disks supposedly resized but root volumes still report 20G / 99G.
- Fixed ~/.ssh/config homeassistant → 192.168.86.180. HA confirmed alive (71% root, 21/30G). Minecraft CT 110 genuinely stopped.
- Next: pending Justin's go to audit
pct configon 102/107 + HA VM 100 to see if root-fs resize was actually applied, and grow if not before he's out of LAN reach.

[Claude Code] Session Checkpoint¶
- Pre-Omaha fleet hardening: resized media-server 20→50G, immich 100→120G (both live), HA VM disk 32→60G at LVM (claim on next reboot). All
pct resize/qm resizeclean. - Safe apt upgrades: finn (Proxmox, 47 + subscription nag removed), plex (21), biz-apps (24), console (18). n8n docker image pulled + container recreated.
- Fixed ~/.ssh/config: homeassistant .70→.180, biz-apps .66→.194.
- Confirmed HA already on HAOS 17.3 (Justin updated internally). Deferred: Frigate/Immich/AdGuard docker pulls, ERPNext upgrade, HA reboot, fleet.md cleanup (says 104 decomm but it runs ERPNext).

- [Claude Code] 17:42, created: /home/justinwieb/.claude/projects/-home-justinwieb-forge/memory/reference_erpnext_compose_file.md
[Claude Code] Session Checkpoint¶
- Justin felt lucky, said house-DNS / Frigate / Immich / HA / ERPNext were all safe to touch (AdGuard not GFiber-active right now; ERPNext not in real production use).
- Pulled Frigate/AdGuard (both already latest, no-op), Immich (only redis bumped, app images already current). HA VM rebooted 50s, claimed new 60G root (71% → 38%).
- ERPNext snag: ran
docker compose pullagainst default compose.yaml which needs unset ERPNEXT_VERSION; recovered by switching topwd.ymland restarting frontend. Frontend HTTP 200. Logged the gotcha tomemory/reference_erpnext_compose_file.md+ MEMORY.md index. - Next: trip to Omaha; deferred fleet.md cleanup (says CT 104 decomm but it runs ERPNext) for return.

[Claude Code] Session Checkpoint¶
- Deep scan: bumped Console claude-code (2.1.123 → 2.1.143), Tailscale on media-server + adguard (1.96.4 → 1.98.2). Skipped npm 10→11 major bump, system-pip mass-upgrade (risky), Docker engine cross-fleet unification (no benefit).
- Fixed
system-map/fleet.md: added CT 104 (biz-apps, 192.168.86.194, ERPNext) row, replaced "decommissioned" line with active-stack note pointing at reference_erpnext_compose_file.md. - Tailscale recommendation given: install on plex/n8n/frigate/immich/biz-apps for off-LAN access + redundancy. Deferred for post-trip so each
tailscale upcan be verified interactively and ACL tags assigned. - Next: post-trip, roll Tailscale to remaining 5 hosts; ERPNext upgrade if/when Justin decides to bump v16.16.0; consider Plex Tailscale for LAN-speed mobile streaming.

[Claude Code] Session Checkpoint (forge-todo refresh)¶
- Justin asked what major to-dos remain on forge; pushed back on stale items (canary, Phoenix, recall, em-dashes) and confirmed they're done.
- Spawned
plex-audio-stragglers_Sonnet46to re-encode the 13 audio compat stragglers (handoff at memory/handoffs/plex-audio-stragglers-2026-05-15.md). Fixed URL headers on 3 daily logs + indexed 2 orphan memory files; both evals now 0. Verified bot units + context-prefetch.timer already had the hardening the old doc flagged. Rewrote memory/handoffs/forge-todo-2026-05-11.md with a DONE section so we stop re-surfacing fixed work. - Next: wait on Plex worker; remaining tech debt is 1) delete dead n8n
list-recent-emailsworkflow, 2) cancelfinn-rclone-postboot-verifyfollowup. Both cheap.

- Justin asked if Plex is up; ssh plex failing with "Connection reset by peer" on port 22 (sshd broken in CT 101), but Plex itself is fine — service active, listening :32400, LXC running, pings.
