 ## Why UI only showed CHELSTY
 Previously, the `stability-agent` had `NODE_NAME` defaulted to `chelsty` and was only deployed there. The Agent System UI materializer on PIHA filters nodes based on the Redis keys `homelab:nodes:<NODE_NAME>`. Without other agents publishing their specific `NODE_NAME`, the UI remained limited to the single active node.

+Use the helper script to deploy or generate commands:
 ```bash
+# Print commands
 ./scripts/deploy/deploy-stability-agent.sh <node-name>
+
+# Deploy via SSH (requires SSH access to the node)
+./scripts/deploy/deploy-stability-agent.sh <node-name> --ssh
 ```
 
-### PIHA
+### Manual Steps per Node
+The manual steps are encapsulated in `services/stability-agent/deploy-local.sh`. On the target node:
 ```bash
 cd ~/homelab-codex-ws
 git pull
 cd services/stability-agent
-NODE_NAME=piha REDIS_HOST=100.108.208.3 REDIS_PORT=6379 REDIS_ENABLED=true docker compose up -d --build --force-recreate
+./deploy-local.sh
 ```
 
-### CHELSTY
+## Verification
+
+### Fleet Overview
+Run the verification script from any node with `redis-cli` access:
 ```bash
-cd ~/homelab-codex-ws
-git pull
-cd services/stability-agent
-NODE_NAME=chelsty REDIS_HOST=100.108.208.3 REDIS_PORT=6379 REDIS_ENABLED=true docker compose up -d --build --force-recreate
+./scripts/deploy/verify-agent-fleet.sh
 ```
 
-### SOLARIA
-```bash
-cd ~/homelab-codex-ws
-git pull
-cd services/stability-agent
-NODE_NAME=solaria REDIS_HOST=100.108.208.3 REDIS_PORT=6379 REDIS_ENABLED=true docker compose up -d --build --force-recreate
-```
-
-### VPS
-```bash
-cd ~/homelab-codex-ws
-git pull
-cd services/stability-agent
-NODE_NAME=vps REDIS_HOST=100.108.208.3 REDIS_PORT=6379 REDIS_ENABLED=true docker compose up -d --build --force-recreate
-```
-
-### SATURN (Optional)
-Saturn is the orchestrator and can optionally run the stability-agent. If deployed, follow the same pattern with `NODE_NAME=saturn`.
