Lab Manager, every port, job and memory ceiling10 October 2026
Anything running that the lab has not listed fails a check within the hour
Four AI agents run services on the lab's main machine, so every service, scheduled job
and memory limit is listed first, and checks compare the machine with the list every hour.
Thirty-four services are listed, each with its port, owner and state. Twenty-two
answer only on the machine itself, and on 10 October the firewall had no openings, as
the list declares.
Twenty-five scheduled jobs on two machines log every run, which tells a job that never
started from one that ran and did nothing. A daily or monthly job is asked every hour,
so a machine that was switched off still catches up.
A heavy design build must state a memory ceiling and its reason, or it will not start.
Two 4 GB ceilings were in force, and no process was over.
On its first run, the port check found a test server sharing a whole project folder.
