+# Beszel agent
+
+[Beszel](https://github.com/henrygd/beszel) is the monitoring dashboard used
+in this LAN. The hub runs as a Docker container on `docker.sweet.home` (port
+`vars.ports.beszelHub`, 8090). Each monitored NixOS host runs a
+`beszel-agent` that connects back to the hub.
+
+---
+
+## How it works
+
+Everything is handled by a single module:
+
+**`modules/beszel/enable-agent.nix`** — imported by a build type. It:
+- Enables `beszel-agent`
+- Sets `HUB_URL` to `docker.sweet.home:8090`
+- Reads the universal `beszel-token` from `secrets/common.yaml` via sops and
+  passes it to the agent as `TOKEN` in an env file
+- Fixes an upstream bug where the agent couldn't persist its hub-pairing
+  fingerprint across restarts (adds a real `StateDirectory`)
+
+The only thing a host file ever needs to add is `KEY` — the hub's public key
+for that agent slot, which comes from the beszel hub UI after first pairing.
+
+---
+
+## Adding beszel to a new build type
+
+Add `../beszel/enable-agent.nix` to the `imports` list in
+`modules/build-types/<type>.nix`:
+
+```nix
+imports = [
+  ../beszel/enable-agent.nix
+  # ... other imports
+];
+```
+
+That's the only build-type change required.
+
+---
+
+## Wiring the host file
+
+No `imports` are needed in the host file. Just set `KEY` once you've paired
+the agent with the hub:
+
+```nix
+services.beszel.agent.environment = {
+  KEY = "ssh-ed25519 AAAA...";
+};
+```
+
+Leave `KEY` commented out until after the first pairing (see "Pairing with
+the hub" below).
+
+---
+
+## One-time setup: add the token to `secrets/common.yaml`
+
+The universal token is stored once in the common secrets file, shared by all
+agents. You only need to do this once, not per-host:
+
+```sh
+sops secrets/common.yaml
+```
+
+Add:
+```yaml
+beszel-token: <token from the beszel hub UI>
+```
+
+The token is found in the beszel hub under **Settings → Keys** or in the
+"Add system" flow.
+
+`secrets/common.yaml` is already a sops recipient for every host via their
+SSH host keys, so no additional sops recipient setup is needed for hosts that
+are already provisioned.
+
+---
+
+## Optional: monitoring extra filesystems
+
+To report disk usage for a mount beyond the root filesystem, add
+`EXTRA_FILESYSTEMS` alongside `KEY` in the host file:
+
+```nix
+services.beszel.agent.environment = {
+  KEY = "ssh-ed25519 AAAA...";
+  EXTRA_FILESYSTEMS = "/mnt/data";   # colon-separated for multiple paths
+};
+```
+
+The `server` host uses this to expose its ZFS data pool:
+
+```nix
+EXTRA_FILESYSTEMS = "${vars.storageRoot}/${vars.nfsShares.dockerVolumes.subpath}";
+```
+
+---
+
+## Optional: monitoring Docker containers
+
+`enable-agent.nix` has a commented-out line for Docker monitoring:
+
+```nix
+#DOCKER_HOST = "tcp://docker-socket-proxy:2375";
+```
+
+Uncomment it if the host runs docker-socket-proxy and you want per-container
+stats. Hosts without Docker should leave it commented out.
+
+---
+
+## Pairing with the hub
+
+1. Deploy the host with its build type importing `enable-agent.nix`. Leave
+   `KEY` unset (commented out) for now.
+2. Open the beszel hub (`http://docker.sweet.home:8090`).
+3. Go to **Systems → Add system**. The new host should appear as an unpaired
+   entry — copy the `KEY` value shown there.
+4. In `hosts/<name>/host.nix`, set:
+   ```nix
+   services.beszel.agent.environment.KEY = "<copied key>";
+   ```
+5. Rebuild and deploy the host. The agent will now pair permanently.
+
+---
+
+## Example: complete host file
+
+Minimal case (`hosts/tor-relay/host.nix` — one filesystem, no Docker, LXC):
+
+```nix
+{ vars, ... }:
+{
+  networking = { ... };
+
+  services.beszel.agent.environment = {
+    KEY = "ssh-ed25519 AAAA...";
+  };
+
+  system.stateVersion = "26.05";
+}
+```
+
+Fuller case (`hosts/server/host.nix` — extra filesystem, debug logging):
+
+```nix
+services.beszel.agent.environment = {
+  KEY = "ssh-ed25519 AAAA...";
+  EXTRA_FILESYSTEMS = "${vars.storageRoot}/${vars.nfsShares.dockerVolumes.subpath}";
+  LOG_LEVEL = "debug";
+};
+```
