Choose the deployment
Use Hermetiq Cloud or the customer-managed dashboard and project supplied by your organization.
Overview
Hermetiq documentation
Set up Hermetiq, connect Bazel and Buildbarn data, and bring build intelligence into your engineering and AI-agent workflows.
Start with one real build
Hermetiq’s in-product Quickstart generates the project-specific values and credentials your build needs. The public documentation explains the flow; Quickstart remains the source of truth for your exact endpoints and project ID.
Apply project setup
Use Cloud Quickstart or your administrator-provided helper and endpoints to configure the Bazel workspace.
Run and inspect
Run a build, then confirm it appears in Build History and open the relevant analytics views.

01
Start here
→02Getting started
Choose the Hermetiq Cloud or customer-managed onboarding path, secure the project credential, configure Bazel, and verify your first build.
Product
→03Using Hermetiq
Find and group builds, inspect invocation evidence, compare runs, and interpret cache, profile, test, RBE, trend, and cost views.
Build data
→04Data sources
Understand what Hermetiq receives from Bazel, remote cache, Buildbarn, profiles, OpenTelemetry, and configured cost sources.
Build data
→05Configuration
Use project-scoped values from Quickstart for BEP ingestion, authentication, profiles, metadata, remote cache, and build grouping.
Build data
→06Integrations
Connect CAS and Bytestream, completed-action and cache telemetry, invocation logs, BEP forwarding, OpenTelemetry, and cost data.
Build data
→07Remote execution
Connect Bazel to a managed or customer-managed executor, configure platform properties and authentication, and verify remote actions.
AI agents
→08MCP and AI agents
Install the Hermetiq skill and MCP server for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or Codex, then query real build data.
Operations
→09Administration
Manage projects, users, roles, machine credentials, and project integrations, and understand deployment-controlled retention.
Operations
→10Deployments
Understand the hosted and customer-managed deployment paths, including identity, telemetry authentication, and data boundaries.
Operations
→Troubleshooting
Resolve the most common setup, authentication, profile-ingestion, MCP, remote-cache, and Buildbarn integration problems.
What Hermetiq connects
Hermetiq joins the build graph to the cache, execution, infrastructure, profile, and cost signals that explain how a build behaved.
Bazel BEP
Build and invocation identity, targets, tests, timing, status, and build metadata.
Remote cache
Cache lookups, hits, misses, action keys, and available miss-reason analysis.
Completed remote actions
Queue, input-fetch, execution, output-upload, worker, and action-level context.
Bazel JSON profiles
Build phases, critical path, parallelism, client pressure, and profile-derived insights.
Infrastructure telemetry
Configured metrics, logs, and traces from Hermetiq, Buildbarn, Kubernetes, and supporting services.
Cost sources
Cost reporting and attribution where the relevant infrastructure data is configured.
