docs(autonomous-agents): Hindsight is a standalone HA service now, not "local, no external service" #175

Description

@JacobPEvans-personal

File: autonomous-agents/hermes-agent.mdx

Since the 2026-07-17 Hindsight standalone cutover, Hermes runs memory mode local_external pointing at the standalone HA Hindsight pool (two stateless replicas behind Traefik hindsight.{PROXMOX_SUBDOMAIN}, state in the ai-VLAN Postgres cluster postgres-ai-1/-2). The page still describes it as in-process/local:

  • Line ~30: "the built-in MEMORY.md / USER.md plus the local Hindsight provider (knowledge-graph recall, fully self-hosted)" → it is a separate self-hosted HA service, not local/in-process.
  • Line ~55: provider: hindsight # local, no external service → the comment is now wrong; the mode is local_external → the standalone HA pool. Show mode: local_external if the config block should reflect current defaults.

Source of truth: ansible-proxmox-ai hermes_agent role defaults (local_external + https://hindsight.{SUB}). Live-verified this session: both replicas /health healthy; hermes memory status = provider hindsight, local_external → pool. Ref: Zammad #17049 (closed).
