feat(prod): observability for the two failure modes that went unseen, plus OIDC self-healing
Minimal prod delivery, authored directly on main (= prod's live revision d1a6628)
rather than by merging work/prod-standup-campaign. That branch carries the DNS apex
inversion, which would have set prod's BASE_DOMAIN to home.keithjackson.dev; prod
runs external-dns with policy: sync and txtOwnerId: prod, so it would have begun
rewriting apex records dev owns while the non-k3s prod still serves 443 there.
Operator sequencing is "dev migrates first". Nothing under clusters/ is touched
here at all, which is what makes this safe to land now.
Also deliberately EXCLUDED, because prod's live cluster-vars has no CNPG_BACKUP_PATH
key and StrictPostBuildSubstitutions would fail the whole tier: the R2 rework of
platform/velero/ and the CNPG destinationPath changes. Those land as
feat/r2-backup-prod together with the endpoint and bucket knobs.
WHAT THIS FIXES
1. Nothing was watching CNPG. All three prod databases have run since bootstrap with
ContinuousArchiving=False and firstRecoverabilityPoint=null, and no alert existed
anywhere. Because archive_mode=on and the archive command fails, Postgres refuses
to recycle WAL: keycloak-db holds every segment ever written (257 MiB on a 5 GiB
volume, ~6.8 MiB/h) — roughly 29 days to a disk-full PANIC on the cluster's SSO
database. Found by hand, 38h late. CNPGWALArchiveBacklog would have fired within
the hour, and evaluates to 3 firing series on prod today.
Rules key on cnpg_collector_* rather than cnpg_pg_stat_archiver_*, because
nextcloud-db's exporter cannot log in to its own database (permission denied for
database "nextcloud", both clusters) so the pg_stat_archiver family does not exist
for it — the obvious metric would have been blind to one database in three.
2. No PVC outside namespace=monitoring had any fill alert. New rules are partitioned
by namespace so they cannot double-fire with MonitoringVolumeFillingUp, pinned to
job="kubelet" (the apiserver copy of the same series reports namespace=default),
and guarded by inodes > 0 — block-mode PVCs such as unifi-rootdisk report
available=0 forever and would otherwise have fired critical permanently.
3. VPNTunnelDown could never clear on a cluster with no gateway node; it has been
firing critical on prod since 2026-09-05. Now guarded so prod self-arms the moment
a node carries the egress-gateway label, with dev's behaviour unchanged today.
4. The Keycloak realm import fails OPEN: an unresolved placeholder is stored
LITERALLY and the import still reports success, then sits at Done=True and never
re-runs. On 2026-09-06 all 12 prod OIDC clients held the literal
$(env:..._CLIENT_SECRET) string and every SSO login failed, while every signal was
green. The CronJob is the level-triggered correction; two alerts make its silence
observable. Repaired live already — this stops it recurring.
Also: the R-NET-04 conformance scan descended into nested agent worktrees under
.claude/, counting 4 egress policies where 1 is authored.

# Three pods for the R-NET-04 default-path test — the SAME workload three times, differing
|
||||
# ONLY in how (or whether) they declare an egress class:
|
||||
#
|
||||
# egress-unlabelled NO egress-class label at all -> selected by NO routing rule
|
||||
# egress-internet egress-class: internet -> the declared default path
|
||||
# egress-vpn egress-class: vpn -> the only class any rule steers
|
||||
#
|
||||
# WHY AN UNLABELLED POD IS THE POINT. docs/03: "Every pod — and the nodes themselves — egress
|
||||
# the local/private WAN by default and **never** the VPN." The unlabelled pod is the case no
|
||||
# other test covers: nothing selects it, so the DATAPATH's default must carry it, and it must
|
||||
# come out the same WAN as the explicitly-`internet` pod. That is the totality half of
|
||||
# R-NET-04's "selected by routing rules" — absence of a rule is itself a path.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# The unlabelled pod is admissible here only because chainsaw's per-test namespace is not an
|
||||
# app namespace: Kyverno's require-egress-class-label (R-NET-05) rejects an unlabelled pod in
|
||||
# a namespace labelled homelab.keithjackson.dev/app-namespace=true. That admission guarantee
|
||||
# is R-NET-05's, and it is exactly why this test must run outside an app namespace to observe
|
||||
# the datapath's own default at all.
