# OCI Budget & Over-Usage Telegram Alert Automation Flow **Portable, Multi-Region & Multi-Account Dynamic Monitoring Architecture** This operational flow documents the end-to-end architecture, dynamic auto-discovery mechanisms, state watermark anti-spam controls, and dual-layer Telegram alert delivery for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) instances across different tenancies, accounts, and regions. --- ## 1. Architectural Principles & Rate-Limit Safety ```text ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ OCI TENANCY CONTROL PLANE │ │ (Computes actual spend every 4–8 hours via batch billing engine) │ └───────────────────────────────────┬────────────────────────────────────┘ │ Periodic Query (Every 5 Hours - 4–5 req/day = 0.0001% of limit) ▼ ┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ PORTABLE SERVER RUNTIME ENGINE │ │ │ │ 1. Dynamic Identity Discovery: │ │ • Local IMDS (169.254.169.254): Server Name & Region │ │ • ~/.oci/config: Tenancy OCID & Auth Keys │ │ • OCI CLI: Dynamic Active Budget ID discovery │ │ │ │ 2. Evaluation & State Watermark: │ │ • ~/.hermes/data/oci_budget_state.json │ │ • If Spend == 0.00 SGD: SILENT (Zero chat noise) │ │ • If Spend > 0.00 & Spend > Last Alerted: TRIGGER ALERT │ │ │ │ 3. Dual-Layer Telegram Delivery: │ │ • Primary: Local TDLib Bot API (:8082) │ │ • Fallback: Official Telegram API (api.telegram.org) │ │ • Audience: Target Chat ID with @sunda005 @sunda004 mentions │ └────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` ### Rate-Limit Analysis - **OCI API Quota:** Default OCI Control Plane API limit is **50 requests per second**. - **Execution Cadence:** Running once every 5 hours results in only **4 to 5 requests per day**. - **Consumption:** Consumes less than **0.0001%** of Oracle's allowed API quota, completely eliminating any risk of HTTP 429 (`TooManyRequests`). --- ## 2. Dynamic Discovery Mechanisms (Zero Hardcoding) To ensure this script runs seamlessly across any instance, tenancy, region (e.g. `ap-singapore-1`, `ap-batam-1`, `us-ashburn-1`), and account: ### A. Instance Identity & Region (via Local IMDS) Every OCI compute instance exposes an unauthenticated local metadata service at `http://169.254.169.254/opc/v2/instance/`: ```bash curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer Oracle" http://169.254.169.254/opc/v2/instance/ ``` Extracts dynamically: - `displayName` (e.g. `singapore`, `batam-prod`, `backup-node`) - `region` (e.g. `ap-singapore-1`, `ap-batam-1`) - `shape` (e.g. `VM.Standard.A1.Flex`) ### B. Tenancy OCID Resolution Parsed dynamically from `~/.oci/config`: ```python for line in Path("~/.oci/config").expanduser().read_text().splitlines(): if line.strip().startswith("tenancy="): tenancy_id = line.strip().split("=", 1)[1] ``` ### C. Active Budget Discovery Automatically discovers the active budget associated with the tenancy: ```bash ~/.local/bin/oci budgets budget budget list --compartment-id "$TENANCY_ID" ``` Selects the active budget containing `reminder` or defaults to the first active budget OCID. --- ## 3. Dynamic Python Implementation (`oci_budget_alert.py`) Deploy this script to `~/.hermes/scripts/oci_budget_alert.py` (or any utility directory): ```python #!/usr/bin/env python3 """ Dynamic OCI Budget & Cost Over-usage Monitor with Telegram Alerts - Fully portable & dynamic: Auto-discovers Tenancy OCID, active Budget, Instance Region & Hardware specs. - Works across different regions, accounts, and servers without hardcoded credentials. - Anti-spam state watermark: Only alerts when actual spend > 0 and increases. - Rate-limit friendly: Designed for 4-6 hour periodic cron execution (0.0001% of OCI limit).

Setting Up Budget on a New Server / Account (100% CLI) If the new server/tenancy does not yet have an OCI budget rule configured, create it in 2 commands via OCI CLI: ```bash # 1. Resolve Tenancy OCID TENANCY_ID=$(oci iam compartment list --all --compartment-id-in-subtree true --query "data[0].\"compartment-id\"" --raw-output) # 2. Create Budget (Limit: $1.00 Monthly) BUDGET_JSON=$(oci budgets budget budget create \ --compartment-id "$TENANCY_ID" \ --amount 1.0 \ --reset-period MONTHLY \ --display-name "reminder-usage" \ --description "Alert if usage exceeds free threshold" \ --output json) BUDGET_ID=$(echo "$BUDGET_JSON" | jq -r '.data.id') # 3. Create Alert Rule (Triggers at 1% actual spend = $0.01) oci budgets budget alert-rule create \ --budget-id "$BUDGET_ID" \ --type ACTUAL \ --threshold 1.0 \ --threshold-type PERCENTAGE \ --display-name "alert-exceeded" \ --message "OCI Usage Exceeded Free Tier" \ --recipients "admin@example.com" ``` --- ## 5. Deployment & Execution Methods ### Method 1: Integrated into Portable Backup Cycle (Adaptive & Dynamic) The 5-hour backup runner (`cron_hermes_backup.py`) features **dynamic multi-target discovery**. It automatically detects whether the host has only Hermes Agent or additional applications (like `EssaTSM_BOT`). If a server does not have the secondary bot, it cleanly backs up only Hermes Agent (`[1/1]`) without errors, warnings, or missing-file failures: ```python # 1. Resolve live OCI budget spend dynamically oci_status_str = "SGD 0.00 / 1.00 (Safe)" try: from oci_budget_alert import get_tenancy_ocid, get_active_budget_id, get_oci_budget_info t_id = get_tenancy_ocid() b_id = get_active_budget_id(t_id) b_info = get_oci_budget_info(b_id) spend = b_info.get("actual_spend", 0.0) limit = b_info.get("budget_amount", 1.0) label = "Safe" if spend == 0.0 else "OVERAGE" oci_status_str = f"SGD {spend:.2f} / {limit:.2f} ({label})" except Exception: pass # 2. Dynamic target discovery (Works with 1, 2, or N components) has_hermes = HERMES_DIR.exists() has_bot = BOT_PROJECT_DIR.exists() total_targets = (1 if has_hermes else 0) + (1 if has_bot else 0) active_files = [] current_step = 1 if has_hermes: step_lbl = f"{current_step}/{total_targets}" hermes_7z = backup_hermes_agent(stamp, now_wib_str, next_wib_str, oci_status_str=oci_status_str, step_label=step_lbl) if hermes_7z: active_files.append(hermes_7z) current_step += 1 if has_bot: step_lbl = f"{current_step}/{total_targets}" bot_7z, bot_md = backup_essa_bot(stamp, now_wib_str, next_wib_str, oci_status_str=oci_status_str, step_label=step_lbl) if bot_7z: active_files.append(bot_7z) if bot_md: active_files.append(bot_md) current_step += 1 # 3. Dynamic zero-garbage retention prune_storage(active_files) # 4. OCI Budget & Cost Over-usage Safety Alert Check try: from oci_budget_alert import check_and_alert print("\n[*] Running OCI Budget & Cost Over-usage check...") check_and_alert() except Exception as e_oci: print(f"[!] OCI Budget check skipped: {e_oci}") ``` #### Sample Telegram Captions Generated: **Hermes Agent Archive:** ```text 📦 Hermes Agent Portable Backup (20261021_023159) • Format: 7-Zip LZMA2 • SHA-256: 5e6de36e19af... • Size: 23.37 MB • OCI Budget: SGD 0.00 / 1.00 (Safe) • Next backup: 21 Okt 2026, 07:31 WIB ``` **Essa Feature Bot Archive:** ```text 📦 Essa Feature Bot Portable Backup (@EssaTSM_BOT) • Format: 7-Zip LZMA2 • SHA-256: 6b60883b6ec1... • Size: 0.44 MB • OCI Budget: SGD 0.00 / 1.00 (Safe) • Next backup: 21 Okt 2026, 07:31 WIB ``` ### Method 2: Standalone Systemd Timer & Service Create service unit `~/.config/systemd/user/oci-budget.service`: ```ini [Unit] Description=OCI Budget & Cost Over-usage Monitor [Service] Type=oneshot ExecStart=/usr/bin/python3 %h/.hermes/scripts/oci_budget_alert.py ``` Create timer unit `~/.config/systemd/user/oci-budget.timer`: ```ini [Unit] Description=Run OCI Budget Monitor Every 6 Hours [Timer] OnCalendar=00/6:00:00 Persistent=true [Install] WantedBy=timers.target ``` Enable and start: ```bash systemctl --user daemon-reload systemctl --user enable --now oci-budget.timer ``` --- ## 6. Emergency Automated Remediation (Self-Resize) If an alert triggers indicating spend overage (`actual_spend > 0`), run the self-resize command directly from terminal. The control plane updates the hypervisor and reboots the instance in ~90 seconds: ```bash # Retrieve instance OCID dynamically from local IMDS INSTANCE_ID=$(curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer Oracle" http://169.254.169.254/opc/v2/instance/ | jq -r .id) # Resize to 2 OCPU / 12 GB RAM (Zero-cost safe shape) ~/.local/bin/oci compute instance update \ --instance-id "$INSTANCE_ID" \ --shape-config '{"ocpus": 2.0, "memoryInGbs": 12.0}' \ --force ``` --- ## 7. Operational Testing & Verification 1. **Simulated Dry-Run (Verifies Telegram Delivery & Mentions):** ```bash python3 ~/.hermes/scripts/oci_budget_alert.py --test ``` *Expected output:* Dispatches a simulated alert with mock spend (`SGD 0.05`) to Telegram chat `-1004327669652` mentioning `@sunda005 @sunda004`. State watermark remains unaffected. 2. **Real Production Check (Silent when spend is $0.00):** ```bash python3 ~/.hermes/scripts/oci_budget_alert.py ``` *Expected output:* Prints `[+] OCI Spend is 0.00 SGD (or unchanged). No alert needed.` with zero chat spam.
