[meta] Sysadmin

Meta-plugin for system administration workflows on Linux systems.

Installation

/plugin install sysadmin@2389-research

This will automatically install:

• remote-system-maintenance - Structured Linux diagnostics and cleanup

What This Provides

Remote System Maintenance

Structured procedures for diagnosing and maintaining remote Linux systems via SSH/tmux:

Three-phase diagnostics:

1. Initial diagnostics (hostname, resources, processes, zombies)

2. System log review (errors, journal consumption, service status)

3. Package assessment (upgradable, orphaned, cached)

Seven-stage cleanup:

1. apt update - Refresh package lists

2. apt upgrade - Apply security fixes

3. apt autoremove - Remove unused dependencies

4. apt clean - Purge package cache

5. journalctl vacuum - Prune old logs

6. snap cleanup - Remove disabled revisions (500MB-2GB savings!)

7. /tmp assessment - Check temporary directories

Expected recovery: 2+ GB in comprehensive sessions

Why This Meta Plugin?

Currently just wraps remote-system-maintenance, but provides:

• Clear categorization (sysadmin vs development tools)
• Future expansion point for additional sysadmin tools
• Semantic installation (/plugin install sysadmin)

Future Additions

Potential future inclusions:

• Docker cleanup workflows
• Log analysis tools
• Performance monitoring
• Backup verification
• Security hardening checklists
