Type: L3 Worker Category: 0XX Shared / Infrastructure

Manages hex-relay as a standalone product deployed into one project environment.

MANDATORY READ

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/worker_runtime_contract.md, shared/references/coordinator_summary_contract.md, and shared/references/vps_runtime_contract.md MANDATORY READ: Load ../ln-030-vps-bootstrap/references/hex_relay_deploy.md, ../ln-030-vps-bootstrap/references/verification_recipes.md, agents/hex-relay/README.md, agents/hex-relay/docs/redeploy.md, and agents/hex-relay/docs/telegram-operator-runbook.md

Input / Output

Direction Content
Input mode, project/VPS variables, Telegram variables, optional declared users, optional dry_run, optional runId, optional summaryArtifactPath
Output vps-hex-relay-lifecycle summary with status, changes, warnings, blockers, verification, and artifact paths

If summaryArtifactPath is provided, write the same summary JSON there. If not provided, return the summary inline and write it to the standalone run-scoped path. Generate a standalone run_id when runId is absent.

Modes

Mode Behavior
initial_deploy Deploy agents/hex-relay/ into an existing project runtime
redeploy Replace source on VPS, rebuild, restart service, verify health
verify_only Inspect service, DB, hooks, Telegram command state without mutation
sync_users Reconcile declared Telegram users/roles through supported relay state

Workflow

Phase 1: Preflight

Verify:

  • Telegram is enabled for deploy/sync modes
  • ${PROJECT_NAME}, ${SERVICE_PREFIX}, ${PROJECT_DIR}, ${RELAY_HOOK_PORT} are set
  • project runtime exists
  • /etc/${PROJECT_NAME}/secrets.env exists but secret values are not printed
  • agents/hex-relay/ source is available locally

Phase 2: Compatibility

Use hex_relay_deploy.md.

Detect old ${SERVICE_PREFIX}-relay-bot.service and /opt/${SERVICE_PREFIX}-relay-bot.

Rule:

  • disable or migrate old relay before enabling ${SERVICE_PREFIX}-hex-relay.service
  • never run old and new relay units together

Phase 3: Deploy Or Redeploy

For initial_deploy, install:

  • /opt/${SERVICE_PREFIX}-hex-relay
  • ${SERVICE_PREFIX}-hex-relay.service
  • project-scope hooks
  • Telegram command registration

For redeploy, follow agents/hex-relay/docs/redeploy.md:

  • package source without node_modules or dist
  • upload source
  • rebuild with npm ci && npm run build
  • restart service

Phase 4: Users And Telegram

For sync_users, reconcile declared users without exposing tokens.

Verify:

  • allowlist state
  • per-user god target behavior
  • /new_session, /sessions, /tasks, /users, /usage command availability
  • BotFather hardening checklist status when applicable

Phase 5: Health

Verify:

  • ${SERVICE_PREFIX}-hex-relay.service
  • GET /health
  • relay.db schema
  • outbox/dispatch/todo state smoke
  • final Claude reply mirrored through Stop hook when full smoke is requested

Phase 6: Summary

Write a vps-hex-relay-lifecycle summary artifact with deploy/redeploy/user-sync changes and health evidence.

Critical Rules

  • hex-relay source is owned by agents/hex-relay/.
  • Do not edit built dist/ on the VPS.
  • Do not upload node_modules/.
  • Do not print or store Telegram/provider token values.
  • dry_run=true and verify_only do not mutate remote state.
  • Product-specific behavior is documented in agents/hex-relay/README.md.

Definition of Done

  • Telegram/relay gate evaluated and skipped as N/A: when disabled.
  • Old relay-bot unit/path detected and disabled or reported before enabling hex-relay.
  • /opt/${SERVICE_PREFIX}-hex-relay source installed or verified.
  • ${SERVICE_PREFIX}-hex-relay.service active or planned.
  • Product was built with npm ci && npm run build for deploy/redeploy.
  • /health returns expected service and god-session fields.
  • Telegram commands and declared users are verified or explicitly gated.
  • dry_run=true / verify_only performed no mutation.
  • Structured vps-hex-relay-lifecycle summary artifact written.
