Faro is the AI agent inside Server Manager. It's what you're talking to when you type in the chat panel.
Faro's job is to translate your plain-English requests into commands that run on your server over SSH. It:
- Reads what you want ("install WordPress on this server", "why is my site down?")
- Proposes the commands needed and explains what each does
- Pauses for approval on anything that changes the system
- Runs the approved commands and shows you the output as it streams
- Adapts to what it sees — if a command fails, Faro reads the error and proposes the next step
Faro never runs anything destructive without your explicit "yes". Read-only checks (looking at files, listing running services) execute automatically because they can't break anything.
Naming: Server Manager is the product you're using. Faro is the agent inside it. You can think of Faro as your senior sysadmin colleague — but one that types fast, never forgets a command, and pauses to check with you before doing anything important.
