 "title": "Monitor a server fleet with the MaidCafe daemon",
 "page_title": "How to monitor a server fleet with the MaidCafe daemon with Maid Kit",
 "summary": "Sign in to MaidCafe Cloud and let Maid Kit install an outbound-only daemon that streams live host metrics.",
 "who": "A small team or indie operator with several VPS hosts who wants live load, memory, and disk views without opening inbound ports.",
 "problem": "Watching many hosts over SSH only shows what you check by hand, and alarms need something running on each host.",
 "outcome": "A Fleet view listing each daemon with live load, swap, disk, and network metrics, plus alarm notifications.",
 "steps": [
  "Open Maid Kit and sign in with a Solarpass account.",
  "Select a workspace.",
  "Start the one-flow daemon setup for a server; Maid Kit probes it over SSH, installs the MaidCafe daemon, and registers it.",
  "Open the Fleet view and check that the daemon's load, swap, disk, and network metrics update.",
  "Set alarm thresholds so the daemon sends notifications when a limit is crossed."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "Using the Solsynth/MaidKit app, sign in with a Solarpass account, select a workspace, and run the one-flow daemon setup for <server-address>. Expected output: the daemon appears in the Fleet view with live metrics. Verify that the daemon still reports after MaidKit is closed, since it runs on its own.",

 "difficulty": "Intermediate",
 "time": "30 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says the daemon only connects outbound and needs no open inbound ports, but it does not list every host requirement, so check the daemon's status after setup.",
