Wiki navigation and structural hubs

Purpose: Reduce flat-list fatigue in index.md by naming where to start for meta/IA, two-site operations, homelab edge, and audits. This page is a router, not a duplicate of every analysis.

IA policy & debt: Structural debt audit — wiki IA and operational maturity · AGENTS.md (canonicalization, page_subtype, operational_maturity).


Operational standards (farm & homelab)

Page Use when
Operational standards — farm and homelab platform Catalog of Pi, k3s, storage, secrets, backup cadence, field naming, gateways, site boundaries
Raspberry Pi fleet provisioning standard — smart farm / homelab Every node checklist
Kubernetes edge — scheduling, storage class, and Longhorn roles standard Labels, defaults, taints
Site-to-site network role boundaries standard Zones, SITE_* roles, WAN vs local

Procedural guides (how-tos and runbooks)

Page Use when
Procedural guides package strategy — Smart Farm Wiki Contract: where guides live (analyses/), vs standards/essays, operational_maturity, required links (architecture, standards, entities)
How to provision k3s, Longhorn, and Rancher on a Raspberry Pi fleet Guide hub — Pi edge stack bootstrap sequence (page_subtype: operational_guide)
Backup and disaster recovery package — smart farm stack DR doctrine spine — operator routing across backup tracks
Runbook — backup validation and recovery drill Example incident/drill runbook (runbook-*.md)

Incident runbooks (degraded mode): Runbook — broker or backhaul down, Runbook — power loss at remote site, Runbook — sensor false-positive alert triage, Runbook — manual fallback irrigation, gates, pumps.


Five package hubs (start here for “whole topics”)

Hub Use when
Platform doctrine package — homelab / farm edge k3s / Longhorn / Rancher / Pi doctrine and provisioning pointers
Backup and disaster recovery — doctrine hub farmOS / Postgres / etcd / Longhorn backup and restore navigation
Off-grid power and field networking hub Demory off-grid doctrine + two-site WAN + field RF routing + Farm sensor architecture — Demory
Local site and county intelligence Claxton / Demory / Anderson / Campbell evidence and parcel gaps
Business plan execution and pilot operations hub Phase 0–1 execution dossier, pilots, V*/G*—not the full strategy TOC

Onboarding and terminology

Page Use when
Start here — Smart Farm Wiki First visit—fast paths without reading analyses
How to read this wiki Layers, page types, how to use the catalog
Smart Farm Wiki glossary (hub) Vocabulary (gates, SoR, two-site, off-grid, platform)
Wiki overview North-star + optional deep orientation list

Entity layer — operating objects

Page Use when
Entity layer — operating objects gap audit Audit: what entities were for; what this pass added
Field node classes (G/R/S/H/W) Off-grid roles (not SKUs)
RF and telemetry gateway roles vs WAN edge and backhaul roles Disambiguate field vs internet gateways
Backup and restore tier labels Tier 0–3 DR vocabulary
Kubernetes edge control-plane roles k3s / etcd / Rancher boundaries
index.md Full Entities list including labor, markets, infrastructure categories

Backup / disaster recovery

Page Use when
Backup and disaster recovery — doctrine hub Router—start here for DR navigation
Backup and disaster recovery package — smart farm stack Canonical spine (same story as hub; full prose)
Disaster recovery decision rules — farm edge stack Incidents: what failed, what to restore first, execution alignment
Runbook — backup validation and recovery drill Restore-tested drills

Meta, audits, and steering

Page Use when
Usability and navigation audit — 2026-04-18 Reader UX: flat index pain, hub strength, source-note scanability; pairs with structural audits
Source-note abstract and evidence pattern Authoring: optional Evidence summary block for cluster source-notes
Domain content overview Strand map, maturity matrix, backlog
Repository analysis Repo layout, CI, MkDocs, validation
Structural audit — repository shape and canonical routing Merge policy, index IA
Structural audit — page ownership, entity gaps, and hub routing Anti–analysis-swarm ownership map
Structural debt audit — wiki IA and operational maturity Sprawl diagnosis, ops maturity taxonomy
Execution readiness gap audit — East Tennessee ET execution evidence gaps
Source authority hardening audit Provenance: forums/blogs vs official clusters; backlog
Tennessee two-site — evidence hardening audit (2026-04) Desk portals, infra/observability routing, open gaps; complements execution readiness audit
Raw corpus vs wiki synthesis — evidence surfacing audit (2026) raw/processed/ depth vs visible synthesis; theme gaps + Evidence-summary priorities
Package artifact backlog — canonical East Tennessee packages Matrices / standards / runbooks / checklists gaps + Evidence summary queue for remaining clusters

Two-site smart farm (East Tennessee package)

Page Role
Two-site smart farm operations Main hub: business plan links, telemetry, runbooks, ownership table
East Tennessee two-site farm business plan (package) Reading order spine
Business plan execution and pilot operations hub Execution / pilots router (memo, 90d, validation)
Reference architecture — 5 ac + 120 ac Architecture package map
Execution dossier — Phase 0–1 (hub) Pilot execution entry (canonical analysis)

Off-grid systems — Demory farm (SITE_FARM)

Page Role
Off-grid power and field networking hub Umbrella router (Demory doctrine + two-site WAN + field links)
Sub-GHz field networking — synthesis Single-file index: LoRaWAN / Meshtastic / HaLow, WAN vs field RF, links to comparisons and sources
Off-grid systems doctrine package — Demory First-class hub: power domains, field-node classes, WAN deps, degraded modes, stop rules
Off-grid power doctrine — Demory Solar+battery default; always-on vs duty-cycled; networking as load
Power domains and battery-backed infrastructure tiers — Demory Pcrit / Popt; T0–T3 tiers
Field-node classes and communication roles — Demory G/R/S/H/W roles (architecture, not SKUs)
Connectivity dependency map — farm systems (Demory) What must work without WAN
Local-first / WAN-optional operating model — Demory Operating posture; pilot vs scale
Off-grid degraded modes — power and connectivity (Demory) P1/P2/N1/N2 failure classes
Off-grid infrastructure stop rules — Demory DR-* rules; simplification triggers
Mesh and field networking — off-grid Demory Layering; Meshtastic vs HaLow vs Wi‑Fi
Off-grid farm execution topology (Mermaid) Reference / pilot / degraded diagrams

Homelab / edge Kubernetes (Pi, k3s, Longhorn)

Page Role
