# Central AI Hub — AI Agent Runbook > **Writing Style**: ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English (`ste-writing`). ## Phase 1 — Prove the Paperclip Round Trip This phase has no Hub code. It proves the missing link: a job that leaves and a result that returns. ### Steps 1. Create a Paperclip agent API key for this project. **DONE.** - Paperclip board: `http://192.168.20.13:3100`. - Agent: `Hub`, id `108c6220-c9e1-4b62-9e0a-6a763e0d28fd`. - Key name: `hub-service`. - The key is stored in `/home/sam/.config/environment.d/10-secrets.conf` as `PAPERCLIP_API_KEY`. Never commit it. - Verification: `GET /api/agents/me` with the key returns `200` and the name `Hub`. - Note: `POST /api/agents/{id}/keys` is **board-only**. A run JWT gets `403 Board access required`. Mint keys with the local board key. 2. File one job with the round-trip script. The script uses the issue-create endpoint: `POST /api/companies/{companyId}/issues`. - The old `POST /api/issues` route does not exist. It returns `404`. - Company id: `d4921013-e5da-4d88-8016-57d5746e2d03`. - Script: `scripts/paperclip-roundtrip.sh`. 3. Confirm the job appears in the Paperclip board. 4. Wait for the agent to close the job. 5. Send the result to Jervis `POST /announce` so the house speaks it. 6. Record the result in this file. ### Commands ```bash # File one job with the script. It reads PAPERCLIP_API_KEY from the # environment, then from ~/.config/environment.d/10-secrets.conf. scripts/paperclip-roundtrip.sh \ --title "Hub round-trip job: confirm the return path" \ --description "Prove the outbound Paperclip path." \ --assignee 403de1f7-645c-4d35-bc7e-19b01d77bacc \ --priority high \ --project 7ae791bb-8d9a-462f-99bf-013421d20623 # Speak the result. curl -s -X POST http://192.168.20.13:8501/announce \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"text":"Round trip works."}' ``` ### Definition of Done - The job appears in Paperclip. - The job closes. - The house speaks the result. - This file records the result. ## After Phase 1 Follow the build order in `AGENTS.md`. Do not start a destination before the round trip works. ## Health Checks ```bash curl -s http://192.168.20.13:3100/health # Paperclip curl -s http://192.168.20.13:8501/health # Jervis curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' http://192.168.20.30:8123/ # HA ```
