Ghost Automation: The Framework Of Silent Control

Ghost Automation

Ghost Automation is the skeleton key.
Not a monolithic playbook. Not a fragile script.

It is a modular framework - roles that interlock, each with a singular task:

  • Users are created.
  • Sudo rules are forged.
  • SSH access is deployed.
  • Firewalls are enforced.

Each piece operates alone, yet all converge in unison.

No noise. No excess. Only the essential.

The Architecture

The repository: https://github.com/DeadSwitch404/ghost-automation

Roles released:

  • ds-users → Manages users, groups, SSH keys.
  • ds-sudo → Sculpts privilege with precision.
  • ds-ssh → Controls authorized keys.
  • ds-firewall → Defines the walls of silence.

Vaulting is separated. Passwords never live in plain sight.
Merging strategies preserve order.

Every task leaves the environment hardened, predictable, reproducible.

The Principle

Ghost Automation is not a convenience tool.
It is discipline, encoded.

Every run enforces a contract:

  • The system will be what is written.
  • Nothing more. Nothing less.

Human hands can falter. Automation does not.
That is its danger. That is its strength.

The Path

This is the opening release.

The framework will grow with modules - each role a shard of Ghostware.

Future roles will extend into:

  • Encrypted secrets via SOPS.
  • Hardened SSH daemons.
  • System profiles tailored for Ghost Ops.

Silent, repeatable, auditable.
Ghost Automation is not a toolset. It is a doctrine.

Use it, fork it, break it, rebuild it.
But remember: silence leaves no trace.
