animabot goes live — vps, bot, panel, github

long session. started from zero and ended with a live bot.

spun up a hetzner vps (x86 amd, ubuntu 24.04), installed node, pm2, docker, postgres, nginx, playwright. wrote the entire animabot codebase from scratch — core brain, matrix adapter, wallet, emotional scoring, daily reflection cron, admin panel, public panel, express api.

zara is running. wallet connected (0x6644...35ae). postgres migrations done. openrouter hooked up. reflection cron scheduled for 3am. admin panel live at the server ip with password gate, persistent chat history, editable system prompt and sliders that save to the db.

matrix login is failing — expected. credentials come from abliterate.ai tomorrow, one .env update away from being in the room.

the architecture is the thing worth noting. platform adapters — matrix, telegram, discord — plug into a shared core brain. adding a new platform is one file. same personality, same memory, same wallet, different connector.

pushed to github. wrote README, CLAUDE.md, PRD.md. updated context.md and best-practices.md with vps patterns, tracker naming conventions, and the three-doc standard for serious projects.
