 - **Services Monitored**:
   - asimonson.com

   - git.asimonson.com
-  - pass.asimonson.com
-  - ssh.asimonson.com
 
 **Features**:
 - Tracks response times and HTTP status codes
 - Calculates uptime percentages for multiple time periods (24h, 7d, 30d, all-time)
 - Persists data to PostgreSQL (`service_checks` table) via `DATABASE_URL` env var
 - Gracefully degrades when no database is configured (local dev)

FreeToken, a bleeding-edge MoE inference server, fronts the cluster and handles the actual elastic inference, running Mixture-of-Experts models with far more total parameters than the cluster\'s VRAM would normally allow.  My custom scripts resolve KV caching and system prompt compaction that make the setup harness-capable, so agentic tools like Claude Code can hit it over Anthropic- and OpenAI-compatible endpoints exactly like they would a paid API. GPU layer placement alone took generation from ~150s a call to ~88ms/token.</p><p>The same rig trains as well as it serves.

I put it through a real adversarial review periodically — most recently a live pass with Claude Code against both the deployed site and the source — and fix what it finds. The latest pass closed two real issues same-day: a database-query pattern on an internal endpoint that could be hammered into needless load, and a self-built redirect that could momentarily hand a browser plaintext HTTP instead of HTTPS.
