kenpat is building a cyberpunk-style live wallpaper on samurai (Windows desktop) using Rainmeter + Steam Wallpaper Engine (already installed). It should display:

  • Homelab Commands quick reference (from obsidian-vault Homelab Commands/Quick Reference.md)
  • Live system metrics for samurai, T14s/monk, and kscloud1, running at all times

Why: Wants an always-on visual dashboard for the KiteStacks homelab while using the desktop day-to-day.

How to apply: Metrics source is Prometheus running on monk (per device-setup CLAUDE.md). Pull/expose metrics via Prometheus HTTP API (or a small bridge script) for the Rainmeter skin to consume. See project-claude-memory-sync for the shared memory setup that motivated adding this command to the homelab quick reference.

Architecture findings (2026-06-12)

  • Prometheus on monk (100.85.209.116:9090) is reachable directly from samurai over Tailscale - confirmed via curl http://100.85.209.116:9090/api/v1/targets.
  • Current scrape jobs: t14-node (monk's own node-exporter container) and kscloud1-node (kscloud1 node-exporter, public IP - do not commit this IP anywhere). Config lives at ~/kitestacks-live/docker/prometheus/prometheus.yml on monk.
  • samurai has NO exporter yet - needs windows_exporter installed (port 9182) and a new samurai-node scrape job targeting 100.74.0.109:9182 added to prometheus.yml.
  • Neither Rainmeter nor a windows_exporter is installed on samurai yet.
  • Wallpaper Engine IS installed, but at a non-default Steam location: C:\Program Files (x86)\steam2\steamapps\common\wallpaper_engine (note "steam2" dir name).
  • monk also runs kitestacks-metrics-api (FastAPI/psutil, source at /home/kenpatmonk/kitestacks-live/docker/.../main.py inside container /app/main.py) exposing /api/metrics, /api/weather, /api/activity as JSON - a reference pattern, but the wallpaper plan uses Prometheus directly as the unified data source for all 3 hosts instead.

SSH access notes

  • ssh monk now works for general shell (port 22, user kenpatmonk, key id_devman) - added as a Host alias in samurai's ~/.ssh/config. Separate from the 100.85.209.116 config block used for Forgejo git (port 2222, user git, id_ed25519_forgejo) - both entries must coexist, do not collapse them.
