After Dark Systems / Service Automation HubCompletely Programmable Infrastructure

The Service Automation Hub

Infrastructure,
with an
operating model.

Provision, configure, execute, and verify. SAH brings a family of infrastructure tools into a shared product direction—with clear boundaries for authority and execution.

Target architecture / joins in development↗

01 / The platform

Capacity meets control.

Use the APIs for infrastructure. Use the shell and fleet tools for the work that happens on it.

01 / PROVISION

ComputeAPI

A commercial interface to capacity: GPU providers today; bare metal, common cloud adapters, and Bring Your Own Cloud management planned.

Explore capacity ↗
02 / MANAGE

SystemAPI

Outbound Linux agents, live telemetry, Docker and Kubernetes operations, and entitled Starlark execution.

Explore fleet control ↗
03 / OPERATE

The SAH ecosystem

adssh, contracted fleet execution, independent discovery, repair coordination, and local tools for operators and agents.

02 / The target workflow

From an allocation
to a verified outcome.

This is the lifecycle we are connecting. The pieces exist at different stages; the automatic handoffs are still in development.

Provision capacity.

Choose our infrastructure, a managed provider, or a customer-owned cloud account.

Enroll and authorize.

Bind host identity to the control plane. Scope the work through policy and a validated lease.

Execute and observe.

Use the agent or execution shell to perform the allowed operation and capture its result.

Verify and retain evidence.

Check the resulting state and preserve the evidence needed to explain the change.

03 / Availability

An honest map of the joins.

ConnectionStatusWhat it does
sahconnect → SystemAPIAvailableHTTP requests with an operator-provided API key.
sahconnect → adsshAvailableLaunches the installed shell with your arguments.
sahapi → SystemAPIAvailableThree fixed GET proxies: fleet, alerts, and audit verification.
ComputeAPI → host enrollmentPlannedAutomatic registration of newly provisioned capacity.
SystemAPI lease → adssh executionPlannedValidated lease handoff; a frame lease_id alone grants no authority.
farmops schedulingEarly developmentCatalog foundation exists; scheduler and runner are planned.

Build on the parts that are ready.

Start with one tool or API. Follow the integration work as the lifecycle comes together.
