Add Plex Media Server observability (#13) ## Summary - Add `plex_metrics` ansible role with textfile collector for Prometheus metrics - Add Plex log collection to Alloy (forwards to Loki) - Add Grafana dashboard for Plex monitoring (status, library counts, sessions, transcoding, logs) ## Metrics Collected - `plex_up` - server health - `plex_version_info` - server version - `plex_sessions_total/playing/paused` - active sessions - `plex_transcode_sessions_total/video/audio` - transcoding status - `plex_library_items{library,type}` - library item counts ## Prerequisites Plex token must be stored at `~/.plex-token` on indri (already done). ## Test plan - [x] Dry-run passed (`mise run provision-indri -- --check --diff`) - [ ] Apply changes (`mise run provision-indri`) - [ ] Verify metrics: `ssh indri 'cat /opt/homebrew/var/node_exporter/textfile/plex.prom'` - [ ] Verify logs in Grafana Explore: `{service="plex"}` - [ ] Check Plex dashboard in Grafana 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Reviewed-on: https://forge.tail8d86e.ts.net/eblume/blumeops/pulls/13 2026-01-15 15:27:59 -08:00			`---`
