AI-Assisted AeroNyx Node Deployment Standard

A safety standard for using Codex, OpenClaw, Claude Code, Hermes, or similar assistants to install and maintain AeroNyx privacy protocol nodes.

AeroNyx privacy protocol nodes can be installed and maintained with AI coding agents such as Codex, OpenClaw, Claude Code, Hermes, and similar terminal-capable assistants.

The standard is simple: the human operator provides the server and approves the action; Nodeboard provides the registration code and generated command; the AI assistant uses one AeroNyx entrypoint and verifies the result.

Source of the command

The command comes from Nodeboard:

https://app.aeronyx.network

Open Registration Codes, create or select a private registration code, and copy the generated quickstart command.

The assistant should not guess where deploy/node/aeronyx-node.sh comes from. It comes from the open-source Rust repository:

https://github.com/AeroNyxNetwork/AeroNyx

The generated command clones or pulls that repository first, then runs the wrapper.

Required command flow

The generated command implements this flow:

text
clone/pull main -> preview plan -> install/register -> status -> healthcheck

The primary entrypoint is:

bash
./deploy/node/aeronyx-node.sh

The normal action is:

bash
./deploy/node/aeronyx-node.sh quickstart --registration-code "<code>" --api-base "https://api.aeronyx.network/api" --repo-dir "$PWD"

AI safety rules

AI assistants must:

  • use the generated Nodeboard command
  • use deploy/node/aeronyx-node.sh as the primary entrypoint
  • read the preview plan aloud or summarize it
  • require human approval before entering INSTALL
  • run status and healthcheck after install or upgrade
  • report Nodeboard Capacity Decision results
  • report Event Closure open/watch/recovered results
  • avoid exposing registration codes in logs or public chat
  • avoid collecting packet payloads, destinations, DNS contents, domains, URLs, browsing history, private keys, or wallet-level traffic

AI assistants must not:

  • invent script names
  • bypass the preview plan
  • run destructive system commands without approval
  • change Nodeboard policy without explaining impact
  • restart a node with active sessions unless the operator explicitly approves the impact

Completion checklist

An AI-assisted deployment is complete only when:

  • the Rust repository is on main
  • quickstart has completed
  • status reports the node process and operator metadata
  • health --json reports AeroNyx privacy protocol status
  • Nodeboard shows fresh heartbeat
  • Capacity Decision is visible
  • Event Closure has no unreviewed critical Open item
  • the operator knows the node detail URL in Nodeboard
