SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates environment verification and connectivity checks for the Sentient Alpha 2-tier system, enabling rapid detection of misconfigurations and service gaps.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Port and service checks: verify that Frontend on port 3000 and Engine on port 3002 are reachable and healthy.
  • Deployment status: identify when the engine process is running but health endpoints are unresponsive, guiding remediation.
  • Use Case: if a dashboard shows "Connection Refused" errors, run the health check to confirm port availability before code fixes.

Quick Start

Run python3 ai-env/skills/core-ops/scripts/health_check.py to verify the two-tier environment status and print actionable messages.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check Sentient Alpha environment health and service connectivity?

To check Sentient Alpha environment health, run a Python script that verifies port reachability and service endpoints across the frontend and engine, producing actionable diagnostic messages for rapid detection of misconfigurations.

Why does my dashboard show Connection Refused errors for the Sentient Alpha 2-tier system?

Connection Refused errors in the 2-tier system often indicate port conflicts or unresponsive health endpoints. Running an environment health check script confirms port availability and identifies whether the engine process is running but not responding.

How do I diagnose port conflicts on port 3000 and port 3002?

Diagnosing port conflicts on port 3000 and port 3002 involves using Python's standard socket library to test reachability, verifying that both the frontend and engine services are listening and healthy.

Can I use Python's standard library to verify deployment status without external dependencies?

Yes, you can verify deployment status using only Python's standard library. The health check script uses socket, urllib, and json modules to test connectivity and parse health endpoint responses without requiring external dependencies.

What should I do if the engine process is running but health endpoints are unresponsive?

If the engine process is running but health endpoints are unresponsive, run the environment verification script to isolate the issue. It checks port 3002 connectivity and guides remediation by distinguishing between port conflicts and service gaps.
