How I Turned Scattered Workstations into a Super Agentic Setup

Описание и применение

Разделение рабочих станций на несколько мини‑ПК с Tailscale и Herder повысило параллельность агентных задач, но увеличило когнитивную нагрузку.

Задача

Managing a high‑throughput agentic workflow on a single machine caused crashes and limited scalability.

Результат

The setup achieved high agent throughput, scalable compute addition, and centralized monitoring, but increased cognitive load and required rigorous human validation.

Рабочий процесс

• Set up a central terminal with Neovim and tmux for architecture review
• Connect mini‑PCs via GL.iNet KVMs and run 4 agents each
• Install Tailscale on all devices to create a private network
• Use Herder to manage tmux sessions and receive notifications
• Review agent code pushes with LazyGit or Hunk in Neovim
• Unblock agents or intervene when Herder alerts
• Add new PCs to the network as needed for scaling

Доказательства

I use Herder. It’s team tmux plus notifications. When an agent node finishes its job or needs human intervention, it goes "DING!"

Tailscale turns these scattered closet PCs, my development laptop, and even my phone into one private local network, anywhere.

The Central Hub (Me): I sit in the Terminal (using Neovim and tmux).
