KIPP Build Session

Major KIPP infrastructure session with D J.

Completed

  • KIPP Gitea account — user: kipp, repo: git.letsgetnashty.com/kipp/workspace (private)
  • KIPP switched to local LLM — llamacpp/glm-4.7-flash as primary, Claude Sonnet as fallback
  • KIPP ChromaDB memory — collection kipp-memory (ccf4f5b6-a64e-45b1-bf1b-7013e15c3363), seeded 9 docs
  • Ollama URL updated — 192.168.86.40:11434 (same machine as llama.cpp, not the old 192.168.86.137)
  • KIPP model config tuned — maxTokens 2048, contextWindow 32768, auto-recall 1 result
  • KIPP web UI v1 — thin client at https://kippui.host.letsgetnashty.com/
    • WebSocket JSON-RPC protocol v3 working (connect handshake, chat.send, streaming)
    • Weather widget, grocery list, timers, quick actions, mic button
    • Served from kipp-ui.service on port 8080
    • Gateway at kipp.host.letsgetnashty.com (port 18789)
    • CORS handled in Caddy config
  • Meg added to USER.md — "the boss"
  • @RohOnChain tweet analyzed — Kelly Criterion / gabagool22 ($788K PnL), mostly legit math but misleading framing

Key Findings

  • GLM-4 Flash is a thinking model — burns ~200 tokens reasoning before responding
  • 32K context split across 4 slots = 8K effective per conversation
  • D J has 30GB free RAM on llama.cpp server — could bump to 128K context
  • OpenClaw WebSocket protocol: JSON-RPC v3, needs connect with client{id,version,platform,mode}, auth{token}, minProtocol:3
  • Event types: agent (stream:assistant for deltas, stream:lifecycle for start/end), chat (state:delta/final)
  • Caddy reverse proxy handles both services: kippui→8080, kipp→18789
  • dangerouslyDisableDeviceAuth: true still requires auth token in connect params

KIPP Infrastructure

  • VM: 192.168.86.100 (wdjones user, SSH key from Case)
  • llama.cpp: 192.168.86.40:8080 (GLM-4 Flash 30B q4, 2 GPUs 12GB+10GB, 32GB RAM)
  • Ollama: 192.168.86.40:11434 (nomic-embed-text for embeddings)
  • ChromaDB: 192.168.86.25:8000 (kipp-memory collection)
  • Gitea: kipp:K1pp-H0me-2026! @ git.letsgetnashty.com/kipp/workspace
  • Telegram: @dzclaw_kipp_bot
  • Web UI: https://kippui.host.letsgetnashty.com/ (port 8080)
  • Gateway: https://kipp.host.letsgetnashty.com/ (port 18789)
  • Token: kipp-local-token-2026

Evening Session (D J back from work)

  • KIPP UI v2 chat confirmed working — D J tested on Mac, chat end-to-end functional at 18:34
  • Voice input added — mic button in chat overlay triggers browser Speech Recognition, auto-sends on final transcript
  • Piper TTS installed on KIPP VM — pip3 install piper-tts, Amy medium voice model downloaded
  • TTS API server built (port 8081, systemd kipp-tts.service) + proxy through UI server on port 8080
  • Piper voice quality confirmed — sent D J audio sample via Telegram, not robotic
  • Caddy WebSocket issue — persistent 503 on WSS through Caddy reverse proxy
    • Direct WS to 192.168.86.100:18789 works perfectly every time
    • Caddy returns 503 on WebSocket upgrade specifically
    • Fixed gateway: added 192.168.86.0/24 to trustedProxies, added http://192.168.86.100:8080 to allowedOrigins
    • Gateway logs showed "origin not allowed" and "proxy headers from untrusted address"
    • Even after gateway fix, Caddy still 503s — Caddy itself is the bottleneck
    • Need to check Caddy logs on whatever machine it runs on (192.168.86.1?)
    • D J's Caddyfile is clean: just reverse_proxy 192.168.86.100:18789
    • Chat works intermittently — connects sometimes then drops
  • Caddy config (D J's full Caddyfile): media→86.50:8096, vault→86.244:7080, git→86.244:3002, share→86.26:3000, kippui→86.100:8080, kipp→86.100:18789
  • @Argona0x tweet analyzed — $50→$2,980 Polymarket bot claim, 90% likely fake (engagement farming)
  • Kelly Criterion explained to D J

Night Shift Work

  • Alexa+ UI research completed — sub-agent produced comprehensive 200-line report at projects/kipp/research/alexa-plus-ui.md
    • Key patterns: dashboard-first, ephemeral conversation overlay, widget grid, proximity-aware, ambient mode
    • Verge/CNET screenshots downloaded for reference
  • KIPP UI v2 built and deployed — Alexa-inspired dashboard:
    • Hero card with greeting + status, weather with hourly forecast, shopping list, today/calendar, timers
    • Chat overlay appears on mic button press, dashboard blurs behind it
    • Dark theme, card-based, bottom bar with mic button
    • WebSocket protocol fully working (connect, chat.send, streaming)
  • Systems check:
    • Leverage trader running: $9,987.40 (-0.13% from $10K), HYPE trade closed at -$15.63
    • GARP portfolio: $100,055.90 (+0.06% from $100K), 6 positions
    • All systemd timers healthy
  • Future UI improvements identified:
    • Ambient/photo mode when idle (slideshow + big clock)
    • Blue waveform animation during listening state
    • Results persistence (timer created in chat → appears on dashboard)
    • Proximity-aware layout (different for close vs far viewing)

KIPP HTTPS + Voice Fixed

  • Self-signed cert generated (10yr, SAN for 192.168.86.100)
  • UI server switched to HTTPS on port 8080
  • socat WSS proxy on port 18790 → gateway 18789 (systemd kipp-wss-proxy.service)
  • Browser TTS fallback removed — Piper only
  • Double-voice mystery: D J had 2 tabs open 😂
  • Gateway config fixed: allowedOrigins was at root level (invalid), moved to gateway.controlUi.allowedOrigins
  • Added https://192.168.86.100:8080 to allowedOrigins

@milesdeutscher Tweet Analysis

  • Polymarket copy-trading GitHub bot going viral (23K views)
  • Our take: validates our kch123 approach but we're ahead — we have whale selection, they just have execution code
  • Edge erodes with adoption; not actionable for us

Night Shift — Ambient Mode

  • Built ambient/idle mode for KIPP UI (sub-agent)
  • Activates after 60s idle: large glowing clock, weather icon, dark gradient background
  • Rotating content: tuxedo cat facts, quotes, trivia (every 30s)
  • Tap anywhere to return to dashboard
  • Verified with Playwright: both ambient and dashboard modes render correctly

Late Night — KIPP Local-Only Switch

  • D J decided KIPP stays local-only — no external exposure, direct IP access
  • Switched UI WebSocket URL from wss://kipp.host.letsgetnashty.com to ws://192.168.86.100:18789
  • UI renders visually at http://192.168.86.100:8080/ (Playwright confirmed: green dot, weather, clock)
  • But WS still broken: origin-allowed errors persist, old domain URLs not fully stripped from JS fallback/retry code
  • Hundreds of failed reconnect attempts every ~3s in console logs
  • TTS and weather fetch endpoints still referencing old HTTPS domain paths
  • Next: fully clean UI JS code of all old domain refs, fix origin-allowed, re-test with Playwright
  • Network issue on Case's VM (192.168.86.45): persistent "TypeError: fetch failed" every ~10s — Telegram polling, ChromaDB auto-recall broken. D J communicating via webchat as workaround.
