Hardware Reference & Capacity Evaluation Implementation Plan
For agentic workers: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (
- [ ]) syntax for tracking.
Goal: Add a hand-maintained hardware reference doc, a stdlib-only capacity-scan.py that emits deterministic capacity facts, and an on-demand /capacity-review skill that reasons about HA / right-sizing / placement / upgrade timing.
Architecture: docs/hardware/reference.md is the single machine-readable source of truth (physical node capacities + workload allocations + placement intent). scripts/capacity-scan.py parses its tables, computes per-node allocated-vs-physical rollups, and cross-checks workload hostnames against terraform output -json / ansible-inventory --list to surface drift — degrading gracefully when nothing is provisioned. /capacity-review runs the scan, reads the intent columns, and writes a dated report to docs/hardware/reviews/. Live usage stats are a stubbed future hook. Mirrors the existing repo-scan.py → /review-repo → docs/reviews/ triad.
Tech Stack: Python 3 standard library only (no third-party imports in the script); pytest for unit tests (already in requirements.txt); markdown docs; a .claude slash-command skill.
Spec
Design spec: docs/superpowers/specs/2026-06-01-hardware-capacity-design.md.
Refinement vs spec: the spec said allocations come from Terraform. The current
terraform output "vms" only exposes {ip, group}, not cores/RAM/disk, so numeric
allocations are read from reference.md instead; Terraform/inventory are used only
for hostname-drift cross-checks. This better honors the "self-contained markdown
source of truth" decision and needs no Terraform module changes.
File Structure
docs/hardware/reference.md— create. Source of truth. Human sections (physical compute, network gear) + two machine-readable tables (node capacity, workload placement) the script parses.scripts/capacity-scan.py— create. Stdlib-only. Pure parse/math functions- thin subprocess glue +
main()emitting JSON to stdout.
- thin subprocess glue +
tests/test_capacity_scan.py— create. Pytest unit tests for the pure functions + a smoke test against the realreference.md..claude/commands/capacity-review.md— create. The/capacity-reviewskill.docs/hardware/reviews/.gitkeep— create. Report output dir.docs/decisions/012-hardware-capacity.md— create. ADR recording the decision.STATUS.md— modify. Add real-vs-planned rows.CLAUDE.md— modify. Commands-table row + Further-reading pointer.scripts/README.md— modify. Documentcapacity-scan.py.
Machine-readable table contract (used by Task 1 and the parser)
reference.md must contain these two tables verbatim in header shape. The parser
keys on header names, so column order is flexible and extra free-text columns are
ignored.
Node capacity — header contains node, cores, ram_gb, disk_gb (integers/floats):
| node | cores | ram_gb | disk_gb |
|------|-------|--------|---------|
| pve0 | 20 | 64 | 4000 |
Workload placement — header contains the numeric columns workload, node, cores, ram_mb, disk_gb plus any free-text intent columns:
| workload | node | cores | ram_mb | disk_gb | criticality | ha_intent | profile | constraints | growth |
|----------|------|-------|--------|---------|-------------|-----------|---------|-------------|--------|
| dns1 | pve0 | 1 | 512 | 10 | high | pair/dns2 | tiny | anti-affinity: dns2 elsewhere | flat |
Task 1: Reference doc skeleton
Files:
-
Create:
docs/hardware/reference.md -
Create:
docs/hardware/reviews/.gitkeep -
Step 1: Write
docs/hardware/reference.md
# Hardware reference — boma
> Hand-maintained source of truth for **physical** compute + network gear and
> **workload placement intent**. The two machine-readable tables (Node capacity,
> Workload placement) are parsed by `scripts/capacity-scan.py` — keep their
> headers intact. Evaluated by `/capacity-review`. See ADR-012.
>
> _Status: skeleton. Replace example rows with real hardware once the cluster is
> stood up (STATUS.md tracks real-vs-planned)._
## 1. Physical compute
### pve0
- **Model / form factor:** _TBD (e.g. Minisforum MS-01, mini-PC)_
- **CPU:** _TBD (e.g. i9-13900H, 14C/20T)_
- **RAM:** _TBD total; max _; free DIMM slots _
- **Storage:** _TBD (disks → pools, e.g. 2× 2 TB NVMe → `local-zfs`)_
- **NICs:** _eno1 trunk (vmbr0), eno2 corosync (vmbr1)_
- **Notes:** _warranty, quirks_
_(repeat for pve1, pve2, askari)_
## 2. Network gear
| device | model | ports | poe | throughput | uplinks | notes |
|----------|-------|-------|-----|------------|---------|-------|
| opnsense | _TBD_ | _TBD_ | n/a | _TBD_ | WAN+LAN | dedicated hardware |
| switch | _TBD_ | _TBD_ | _TBD_ | _TBD_ | trunk | managed, 802.1q |
| ap1 | _TBD_ | _TBD_ | _TBD_ | _TBD_ | trunk | multi-SSID per VLAN |
## 3. Workload placement & intent
The numeric columns (`cores, ram_mb, disk_gb`) feed `capacity-scan.py`; the
free-text columns feed `/capacity-review`'s judgement.
| workload | node | cores | ram_mb | disk_gb | criticality | ha_intent | profile | constraints | growth |
|----------|------|-------|--------|---------|-------------|-----------|---------|-------------|--------|
| dns1 | pve0 | 1 | 512 | 10 | high | pair/dns2 | tiny/steady | anti-affinity: dns2 on a different node | flat |
| dns2 | pve1 | 1 | 512 | 10 | high | pair/dns1 | tiny/steady | anti-affinity: dns1 on a different node | flat |
## 4. Node capacity (machine-readable)
Physical totals per node. Integers; `ram_gb` and `disk_gb` may be decimals.
| node | cores | ram_gb | disk_gb |
|------|-------|--------|---------|
| pve0 | 20 | 64 | 4000 |
| pve1 | 20 | 64 | 4000 |
## 5. Capacity notes
Free-text running notes for the evaluator (trends, planned moves, upgrade ideas).
- Step 2: Create the reports directory
Run: mkdir -p docs/hardware/reviews && touch docs/hardware/reviews/.gitkeep
Expected: both paths exist.
- Step 3: Verify the machine-readable headers match the contract
Run: grep -n '| node | cores | ram_gb | disk_gb |' docs/hardware/reference.md && grep -n '| workload | node | cores | ram_mb | disk_gb |' docs/hardware/reference.md
Expected: each grep prints one matching line (the table headers the parser keys on).

---
# /capacity-review
Evaluate the homelab's hardware capacity and workload placement, and recommend
optimizations. On-demand only (scheduling is deferred — see docs/TODO.md 8.4).
## Steps
1. **Gather facts.** Run `python3 scripts/capacity-scan.py` and parse its JSON
(`nodes`, `workloads`, `usage`, `warnings`). If `usage.available` is false,
note in the report that recommendations are **intent-based, not usage-based**.
2. **Read intent.** Read `docs/hardware/reference.md` for the free-text columns
the scan does not parse: `criticality`, `ha_intent`, `profile`, `constraints`,
`growth`, plus the "Capacity notes" section.
3. **Reason across dimensions.** Produce recommendations, each tagged with its
type and the basis it rests on (declared intent vs measured usage):
- **HA / redundancy** — anti-affinity violations (e.g. an HA pair sharing one
node), single points of failure, HA that looks like overkill, or a
high-criticality workload with no redundancy.
- **Right-sizing** — over/under-provisioned workloads. Today this is
intent-based (allocation vs `profile`); flag that it becomes usage-based
once the `gather_usage()` hook is live.
- **Placement / moves** — oversubscribed nodes (`oversubscribed: true`, low
`ram_headroom_pct`) or constraint-driven relocations.
- **Upgrade timing** — `growth` notes vs headroom → rough runway.
- **Drift** — surface every entry in the scan's `warnings` array.
4. **Write the report.** Save to `docs/hardware/reviews/YYYY-MM-DD-capacity.md`
and copy it to `docs/hardware/reviews/latest.md`. Structure: a one-line
summary, then a section per dimension with concrete, actionable items. State
the basis (intent vs usage) on every recommendation.
- Step 3: Verify the file is well-formed
Run: head -5 .claude/commands/capacity-review.md
Expected: frontmatter block present and consistent with review-repo.md's keys.
- Step 4: Commit
git add .claude/commands/capacity-review.md

Task 7: ADR-012, STATUS, CLAUDE.md, scripts/README
Files:
-
Create:
docs/decisions/012-hardware-capacity.md -
Modify:
STATUS.md -
Modify:
CLAUDE.md -
Modify:
scripts/README.md -
Step 1: Write
docs/decisions/012-hardware-capacity.md
Match the heading style of an existing ADR (sed -n '1,15p' docs/decisions/010-forgejo-ci.md first). Content:
# ADR-012 — Hardware reference & capacity evaluation
## Context
The repo modelled the logical/network layer (Terraform VM specs, ADR-007
topology) but not the physical layer — node CPU/RAM/disk capacity, network gear,
or which workloads are designed to run where with what headroom. There was also
no way to ask "is this well-proportioned?" — e.g. HA that isn't needed, a
workload that should move, or a node due an upgrade.
## Decision
- `docs/hardware/reference.md` is the single, hand-maintained source of truth for
physical compute + network gear and workload placement intent. Two
machine-readable tables (node capacity, workload placement) carry the numbers.
- `scripts/capacity-scan.py` (stdlib-only, like `repo-scan.py` / `tf_to_inventory.py`)
parses those tables, computes per-node allocated-vs-physical rollups, and
cross-checks workload hostnames against `terraform output -json` /
`ansible-inventory --list` to surface drift.
- `/capacity-review` reads the scan + intent columns and writes a dated report to
`docs/hardware/reviews/`, mirroring `/review-repo` → `docs/reviews/`.
- Numeric allocations live in `reference.md`, not Terraform: the current
`terraform output` exposes only `{ip, group}`. Terraform/inventory are used
only for hostname-drift cross-checks.
- **Live usage stats are a future hook.** The cluster is not stood up;
`gather_usage()` returns `available: false` and the evaluator reasons on
declared intent. The usage source (Proxmox RRD vs Prometheus/Loki/Grafana/
Alloy) is undecided — see docs/TODO.md 8.4, to be settled before any hook is
built.
## Consequences
- Right-sizing advice is intent-based until usage data exists; reports say so.
- `reference.md` table headers are a parser contract — changing them needs a
matching `capacity-scan.py` change.
See also: ADR-001 (architecture), ADR-007 (network), ADR-009 (TF↔Ansible handoff).
- Step 2: Add STATUS.md rows
In STATUS.md, add to the "Real and working today" table:
| `docs/hardware/reference.md` + `scripts/capacity-scan.py` | Present — reference doc (skeleton until real hardware) + stdlib scan; emits capacity JSON |
| `/capacity-review` | Works — on-demand capacity evaluation → `docs/hardware/reviews/`. Intent-based (no live usage yet) |
And to the "Designed but not built" table:
| Live usage stats for `/capacity-review` | ADR-012 / TODO 8.4 | `gather_usage()` stubbed; source undecided (Proxmox RRD vs PLG stack); needs the cluster |
- Step 3: Add the CLAUDE.md command row + further-reading pointer
In CLAUDE.md "Key commands" table, add:
| Review hardware capacity | `/capacity-review` (Claude command) |
In the "Further reading" table, add:
| Hardware & capacity | `docs/decisions/012-hardware-capacity.md` |
- Step 4: Document the script in scripts/README.md
Add under the existing list in scripts/README.md:
- `capacity-scan.py` — deterministic capacity facts for `/capacity-review`: parses
the machine-readable tables in `docs/hardware/reference.md`, computes per-node
allocated-vs-physical rollups, and cross-checks workload hostnames against
Terraform output / Ansible inventory for drift. Emits JSON. See **ADR-012**.
- Step 5: Verify references resolve
Run: python3 scripts/repo-scan.py | python3 -c "import json,sys; d=json.load(sys.stdin); print('broken_refs:', [f for f in d.get('findings',{}).get('broken_refs',[]) if '012' in str(f) or 'hardware' in str(f)])"
Expected: no broken refs mentioning ADR-012 or the hardware paths (empty list). If the scan's JSON shape differs, instead run python3 scripts/repo-scan.py >/dev/null && echo OK and eyeball the findings.
- Step 6: Commit
git add docs/decisions/012-hardware-capacity.md STATUS.md CLAUDE.md scripts/README.md
git commit -m "Record ADR-012 + STATUS/CLAUDE/scripts docs for capacity tooling"
Task 8: Final verification
Files: none (verification only)
- Step 1: Run the full unit-test suite
Run: python3 -m pytest tests/test_capacity_scan.py -v
Expected: all tests pass.
- Step 2: Run the lint suite
Run: make lint
Expected: passes (markdown/script changes do not break ansible-lint/yamllint).
- Step 3: End-to-end scan
Run: python3 scripts/capacity-scan.py
Expected: valid JSON; nodes.pve0 present; usage.available: false.
- Step 4: Confirm working tree is clean
Run: git status --short
Expected: no uncommitted changes from this plan (pre-existing FRICTION.md / ADR-011 may remain — leave them).
