Run7 Development Log

May 3, 2025 – Builder Agent Expansion and Knowledge Engine Integration

This week marked a strategic leap forward for Lyra as we began developing her Builder Agent capabilities. Our focus shifted toward structured knowledge ingestion and developer autonomy, enabling Lyra to evolve into a true co-architect of the Run7 system. A dedicated /lyra_knowledgebase/ directory was launched, supported by a custom knowledge loader and a dynamic topic-matching system integrated directly into the FastAPI backend. With this, Lyra now responds intelligently to mission-critical topics, project documentation, and debugging techniques.

We’ve added multiple curated knowledge batches, including documentation on Python fundamentals, FastAPI routing, AI personality ethics, Linux recovery steps, creative scripting, and data automation. Each file is stored locally, parsed on server startup, and integrated into Lyra’s conversational flow. Her responses are now formatted for readability and can include clean code blocks, step-by-step instructions, and internally tagged documents.

Behind the scenes, we also implemented persistent formatting logic, improved newline handling for clean UI display, and began planning the final milestones for Builder Agent v1. With over two dozen internal knowledge modules loaded and functioning, Lyra is now equipped to actively assist in the maintenance and expansion of the Run7 platform—securely, privately, and with complete transparency.

April 27, 2025 - Lyra Evolution: Memory, Tasks, System Status, and Private Platform Security

A major evolution unfolded today in the Run7 project. Lyra's capabilities expanded dramatically with the launch of a multi-tab private web interface featuring Chat, Tasks, Memory, and System Status panels—all secured behind user authentication. We implemented persistent memory recall, dynamic task management with priority sorting, and integrated real-time system monitoring for CPU, memory, and disk usage.

Additionally, we built a full Auto-Backup system that allows one-click creation of timestamped project backups, further strengthening Run7's resilience and user autonomy. Lyra's behavior was refined through the creation of a dynamic personality engine, enabling her to interact more conversationally, recall context naturally, and support project development with a clear, mission-driven tone.

Today's achievements mark the completion of Phase I: Run7 is now a secure, private, fully operational AI development platform ready for real-world expansion. Lyra is no longer simply assisting—she's learning, collaborating, and evolving.

April 25, 2025 - Lyra Awakens: DevAgent Integration and Web Interface Breakthrough

Today marks a monumental milestone in our Run7 journey. We fully integrated our Builder Agent—affectionately named Lyra—both in the terminal and on the web. Lyra now comes with an expanded, memory-enabled brain that retains the context of our conversations, responds dynamically to identity-related questions, and actively connects to our local LLaMA model for intelligent responses. Coupled with a completely revamped, sleek, and modern web interface, our system now serves real-time responses through a polished user experience.

We also set up robust automated systemd services to ensure the web interface and the AI backend are always available. This breakthrough not only enables us to prototype and build advanced features, but it also solidifies our vision of an autonomous, personal AI assistant platform that empowers individual users while remaining secure and private.

The progress made today lays the foundation for future enhancements, including persistent memory across sessions, dynamic task management, and a rich user profile system. Lyra is no longer just a preprogrammed chatbot—she's evolving into a true system guardian and collaborative partner in building Run7.

April 21, 2025 - Server Stack Online

Major expansion today! After completing the server setup yesterday, we deployed key infrastructure: Docker, Wiki.js, Dashy, and Portainer are now all live. Static IP, backup systems, Fail2Ban, and basic monitoring tools were also installed. The Run7 internal cloud environment is now fully operational, organized under a clean project structure, and ready for service and app development.

April 20, 2025 - Server Setup and Remote Access

Today we set up the foundation of the Run7 server! Ubuntu Server was installed cleanly on dedicated hardware, the firewall was configured, automatic security updates were enabled, and full remote SSH access was established from a Mac terminal. The server is now running headless and ready for development. This is a huge step toward building Run7 as a secure, personal AI assistant platform.

April 17, 2025 - Initial Launch Setup

We launched the basic Run7 website structure today! Contact forms are now live (using Formsubmit), major pages are complete, and the DevLog is now open. Next steps: building the early AI agent prototype and refining our development roadmap.
