UAI Lab Naming Glossary

Overloaded names are qualified here so docs and operators do not talk past each other.

Director

  • Director (Proxmox host)pve250 at 10.0.0.250; runs CT121/123/124/125/126/128.
  • Director (Python app) — legacy NUC service on port 8765; not on Beacon VPS.
  • Director (Cadence label) — Rust Cadence v6 stack on Beacon (cadence-* units); not the Proxmox host.
  • Director (stale mirror)/root/cadence-v6-mirror SQLite/jobs artifact; not authoritative.

Conductor

  • Cadence Conductorcadence-conductor.service on 127.0.0.1:8787; operator orchestration lane for Cadence v6.
  • UAPI Conductor — separate product concept in UAPI wedge docs; not the same binary as Cadence Conductor.

Explorer

  • UAPI Explorer (CT121) — Python catalog at 10.0.0.121:8080; canonical governed docs.
  • UAI Explorer (Beacon mesh) — Rust catalog at 100.119.16.109:18080.
  • Beacon route explorer — proxies public explorer.united-ai.ca to VPS-local uapi-explorer on :8081.

Beacon

  • Beacon v1 (production edge)beacon.service on VPS; Postgres-backed routes in DB beacon.sites.
  • Beacon-next (CT123) — sandbox modernization lane; do not confuse with production VPS Beacon.

Foundry

  • Foundry (UAPI) — implementation/gateway concept in UAPI program docs; no standalone foundry.service on Beacon.

Qualification rule

Always prefix with product or host: e.g. "Cadence Conductor", "Proxmox Director", "UAPI Explorer CT121".
