Merge docs/reconcile-with-reality: docs match reality; merge gate green again

Reconciles the documentation with the deployed platform (the root README still
claimed Phase 0 / no cluster; the infra docs described a retired libvirt cluster;
DECISIONS-LOG.md had gone ~85 commits stale), and fixes the two independent
defects that had left the merge gate BLOCKED on main:

  - yamllint commas errors in the hand-authored apps/vms/unifi manifests
    (whitespace only; kustomize output byte-identical);
  - ci/touched-requirements.sh scanning whole file contents instead of the diff,
    which mis-attributed requirements to changes that never touched them and made
    appending to the decision log fail CI.

Gate verified in the devcontainer: spec-immutability / lint / l0 / l1 green,
MERGE GATE: PASS.

LESSON: heavy sustained node load (TCG-emulated VMs) can degrade Cilium datapath -> intermittent LB-VIP
reachability; a restart clears it. NOTE: after a host reboot, restart the bootstrap Gitea container
(`bash bootstrap/gitea/bootstrap-gitea.sh`) - it is Flux's source and does not auto-start; the k3s VMs auto-recover.
### BACKFILL — Proxmox migration, app tier, wave split, UniFi VM, kubectl SSO (2026-08-25 → 08-26)
**Process note first:** this log had gone stale at `1eb2cb7` (2026-08-25 AM) while `main` advanced
**~85 commits** to `3472f1d`. Everything below is reconstructed from those commits and **verified
against the live cluster on 2026-08-26**. The lesson is the obvious one: the log is the PM's
authoritative record and a two-day gap in it cost a session's worth of re-derivation. Append per
work item, not per session.
**1. INFRA — the dev cluster MIGRATED off libvirt onto Proxmox VE.** The workstation-hosted libvirt
cluster (3 VMs on `10.73.0.0/24`, 6 GiB each) was RAM/disk-starved — the KubeVirt work was OOMing
nodes (`971c730` had to temp-disable KubeVirt just to relieve pressure). Provisioning was ported
`dmacvicar/libvirt` → **`bpg/proxmox`** (`53ca698`), cloud-init moved from a netplan/meta-data seed
ISO to a Proxmox **user-data snippet** and then to API-native cloud-init with the rich baseline
pushed into the Ansible `node_baseline` role (`39123d7`, `a2392a4`). Nodes are now
**`192.168.1.50/.51/.52`, 6 vCPU / 16 GiB / 64 GiB OS + 128 GiB Longhorn data** (`8a8f28b`), Debian
12, `cpu_type=host` for nested KVM. Gotchas paid for along the way: the base image must be
downloaded as **import** content-type for `import_from` (`fca8d8f`); the Debian *genericcloud*
image kernel-panics on first boot under bpg — use the **generic** image + serial console
(`28d200c`, upstream bpg#1639); `qemu-guest-agent` must be enable-only when tofu leaves the virtio
channel off, or the baseline play fails (`1004c8e`).
**2. NETWORK — pfSense NAT, then kube-vip, then the tunnel died.** The workstation is not on the
cluster LAN. First cut routed Ansible over a pfSense SSH NAT (`192.168.2.102:225x` → node `:22`)
and decoupled `k3s_node_ip` from `ansible_host` (`1ff2531`) — `inventory/hosts.ini` is therefore
**hand-maintained and must never be regenerated** from `tofu output ansible_inventory`. The
kube-API initially needed an SSH tunnel (`0037fb4`). That was retired by **kube-vip**: a
control-plane HA VIP at **`192.168.1.49`**, added to the k3s `tls-san` list so TLS validates
through the NAT via `tls-server-name` (`60a58f0`, `81ef782`). Controller access is now direct:
`https://192.168.2.50:6443` → VIP. Gateway/ingress VIP moved to **`192.168.1.53`** on the Proxmox
LAN, and `GATEWAY_VIP` + the split-horizon CoreDNS answer + the DNS conformance tests were all
repointed (`604552e`, `63b87ff`).
**3. COLD-START DEADLOCK, again — and the durable lesson.** Bringing the platform up on the new
cluster re-hit the Phase-6 shape: `oauth2-proxy` sits in the `platform` `wait:true` tier but needs
Keycloak + trusted TLS + split-horizon DNS, so while it Failed the whole tier stayed not-Ready and
`platform-config` (which applies the fix) could never reconcile. Broken the same way as before —
temp-disable `oauth2-proxy` and its orphaned `platform-config` refs (`2fea1e2`, `efd6dbe`), let
platform go Ready, then re-enable (`e6b3a03`). KubeVirt/CDI re-enabled once the 16 GiB nodes
existed (`21669da`). **The FOLLOW-UP from Session 7 is still open and is now twice-proven: move
`oauth2-proxy` to a post-platform tier (`dependsOn: platform-config`) so a leaf forward-auth
service cannot gate its own dependencies.**
**4. FLUX SOURCE — now the in-cluster Gitea.** Bootstrap source repointed (`fff4499`), Gitea fixed
to mount its PVC at `/data` with a headless-install bootstrap (`73c4475`), then
`GitRepository/flux-system` cut over to **`https://gitea.home.keithjackson.dev/Home-Network/home-network-k3s-impl.git`**
(`d99d171`). Note the loop this creates: Flux's source is an app Flux deploys, reached via
split-horizon DNS → Gateway VIP. Stable in practice (Gitea's Deployment/PVC survive reboots
without Flux), but if Gitea is ever *lost* rather than restarted, recovery is the host bootstrap
Gitea in `bootstrap/`. `git push origin main` **is** the deploy — there is no other apply step.
**5. CI — the merge gate is now REAL and in-cluster.** Gitea Actions enabled with an in-cluster
`act_runner` + DinD, running the static gate as the single required check on `main` (`bc4519b`).
Fixes: kyverno CLI arch is `x86_64` not `amd64`, and the job must wait for DinD certs (`79e7f92`);
`make` masked spec-immutability's exit 3 as a 2, so `gate.sh` calls the script directly
(`0f75fa2`); `upload-artifact@v4` is unsupported by Gitea Actions (`67bc317`). The **whole test
toolchain is now baked into the devcontainer** (`bb48f67`) so `make -C ci gate` on a laptop is
byte-identical to CI (R-TEST-02). Kyverno itself needed two real fixes: the `default-deny-shape`
policy's scalar-array pattern was **inverted** and silently accepted Ingress-only policies — now
expressed via `deny.conditions` requiring both (`1b0848c`); and the fail-closed admission
controller was crashlooping into 502s until its resources were raised and dev replicas set to 2
(`28a34c4`). Chainsaw parallelism dropped 4→2, then heavy L2/L3 tests serialized, to stop dev etcd
overload cascades (`9f52f19`, `948c390`).
**6. APP TIER — 10 services onboarded through the renderer.** gitea, plex, sonarr, radarr,
qbittorrent, jackett (`b76fb7b`…`8392b52`), then seerr (`b6f72ea`), nextcloud (`4be6752`) and
semaphore (`77496f9`) — the last two being the **first CNPG-DB + OIDC-target patterns**. Renderer
bugs found by real onboarding, each fixed in the renderer rather than by hand-patching output:
world/internet egress allow emitted per egress-class (`7e8ae47`); **reciprocal ingress-allow** for
declared dependencies, without which a declared dep silently did not connect under default-deny
(`14beb85`, R-NET-02); east-west selectors **namespace-pinned** so they match the right pods
(`b871877`); `Recreate` strategy for Deployments mounting RWO PVCs, else rollouts deadlock
(`d32b5c4`). ServiceDefinition schema gained `env`/`envFrom`/`lifecycle`, retiring the bespoke
gitea bootstrap patch (`c8dd4f3`). Semaphore cost two root-causes: `fsGroup` via schema-1.3.0
`podSecurityContext` for non-root PVC write (`28498f1`), and **`SEMAPHORE_PORT` being shadowed by
kubelet service-link env injection** (`41d696e`) — a trap for any app whose config env name
collides with a Service name.
**7. APP TIER TOPOLOGY — monolithic `apps` split into WAVES.** One `wait:true` Kustomization over
all ~130 app resources meant one crashloop blocked every app and every new revision (it bit twice).
Split into `apps-wave-0/1/2`, each `dependsOn` the previous, wave assignment computed by
`catalog/render.py::compute_waves()` from the declared dependency graph. Design + the data-loss
cutover analysis are in **`DESIGN-waves.md`**. The cutover was executed as designed: `prune:false`
on the old `apps` first (`1bfb0db`), then the split (`36a1a4e`) so the waves **adopt** by identity
instead of delete/recreate. **VERIFIED 2026-08-26:** `nextcloud-db` carries
`kustomize.toolkit.fluxcd.io/name=apps-wave-0`, the CNPG Clusters retain their ORIGINAL ages
(22h/21h — not recreated), and `prune:true` is restored on the waves. No data was lost.
**8. PHASE 5 — storage for real VMs, and the UniFi VM.** CSI snapshots + smart-clone + a migratable
RWX `longhorn-vm` StorageClass landed to make KubeVirt **live migration** possible (`3586769`);
two KubeVirt alerts were plain wrong and firing falsely — a broken http CDI ServiceMonitor causing
`CDIOperatorDown` (`6a7e9d1`) and `KubeVirtControlPlaneDown` using a non-existent metric with the
wrong job label (`b57b3e9`). **UniFi OS Server** was then onboarded as a VM on a deliberately
**non-gating** track (`317b3f0`): `apps/vms/` reconciled by `apps-vms` (`wait:false`,
`dependsOn: platform-config`), because a VM's image import + in-guest install is legitimately
long-not-Ready and must never gate the app tier. Four cluster-level truths came out of it:
- **`nonroot-devices: true`** on the k3s servers — the non-root CDI importer must open a raw Block
device k8s never chowns for it (`df5979f`).
- **`longhorn-scratch`**, a single-replica class for CDI scratch; the 3-replica default failed the
import with insufficient storage (`7a3da96`).
- **KubeVirt caps inline `userData` at 2048 bytes.** The rich cloud-init exceeded it; a
`userDataSecretRef` was tried and reverted; shipped state is a **minimal ~1.1 KB inline**
payload (`e99e3d1`, `760084e`, `ab59202`). The `install-uos` helper did not survive the cut.
- **`apps-vms` must NOT carry `postBuild.substituteFrom`** — Flux envsubst rewrote `${...}` inside
the cloud-init and corrupted it (`da1f833`). Do not restore it for consistency with the waves.
**9. PHASE 6 — kubectl login via Keycloak SSO (`3472f1d`).** A **public** `kubernetes` client with
PKCE (no secret in any kubeconfig), a groups mapper, kube-apiserver OIDC flags via the k3s_server
role, and `k8s-oidc-rbac.yaml` binding `oidc:platform-admins` → `cluster-admin`,
`oidc:viewers` → `view`. The cert kubeconfig is untouched and remains a fully independent
**break-glass** path. **VERIFIED LIVE:** `kubectl auth whoami` returns
`oidc:<user>` with `[oidc:platform-admins]` — so the API-server flags are active; the rolling
restart the commit message deferred has since happened.
**LIVE STATE VERIFIED 2026-08-26 (fully green):** 3/3 nodes Ready (k3s v1.31.5); **7/7 Flux
Kustomizations Ready** at `3472f1d` (flux-system, platform, platform-config, apps-wave-0/1/2,
apps-vms); **10/10 HelmReleases Ready**; zero failing pods; 3 CNPG Clusters healthy (keycloak,
nextcloud, semaphore); UniFi VMI Running with guest agent connected (Ubuntu 24.04.4,
LiveMigratable). Conformance scaffold coverage **36/51 (70.6%)**.
**GATE WAS RED — two independent defects found and FIXED (branch `docs/reconcile-with-reality`).**
`main` had been failing the merge gate since the UniFi commits landed. Two separate causes:
1. **yamllint `commas` errors** in the hand-authored `apps/vms/unifi/` manifests
(`30-virtualmachine.yaml`, `40-networkpolicy.yaml`, `50-service-l4.yaml` — column-aligned inline
flow mappings). Cosmetic, but `lint` blocks the merge, so the VM work went in without a passing
gate. Fixed by normalizing the spacing; `kubectl kustomize apps/vms` renders **byte-identical**
before and after. The lint config was deliberately NOT relaxed — loosening a rule to make failing
files pass is moving the goalposts.
2. **`ci/touched-requirements.sh` mis-attributed requirements** — the real defect, and the one
previously logged as "FOLLOW-UP (WS-TEST): fix the matcher so real requirements need not be
exempted". The script's own header says it scans "R-* tokens literally present in the **diff**",
but it actually grepped **whole file contents**. So any edit to a long-lived file pulled in every
requirement that file had ever mentioned in prose: appending one entry to **this log** dragged in
`R-SEC-01`/`R-SEC-03`/`R-TEST-06`, and touching `infra/tofu/` dragged in `R-ENV-01`/`R-PLAT-01`.
Several are legitimately uncovered, so `--require-all` then **BLOCKED the merge on lines the
author never touched** — i.e. the PM could not append to the decision log without failing CI.
Fixed with two scoping rules: scan the added/removed lines of the diff (as the header always
claimed), and **skip `*.md`** — an ID in prose is a *reference*, not a declaration. Without the
second rule the log cannot record which requirements a change concerned without thereby claiming
to have touched them, and the very commit that explains a mis-attribution re-triggers it.
Removed lines still count (deleting a `conformance.home.k3s/R-*` tag touches that requirement too).
**Known consequence, accepted:** a manifest whose *header* declares the requirements it serves
(e.g. `platform/keycloak/keycloak-realm-import.yaml`) no longer contributes those IDs unless the
change touches a line carrying them. That is the intended semantics — the harness debt was
written as "stop keying on **doc-header tokens**" — and the authoritative signal, a test's
`conformance.home.k3s/R-*` label, is still detected. Verified: a range spanning conformance and
platform YAML changes still resolves R-NET-01, R-OBS-02/04, R-STATE-01/02 and R-TEST-01..04.
**This is a gate-semantics change — flagged for review.** It is a tightening of attribution, not
a weakening: no requirement is exempted, `DOCUMENTED_GAPS` is untouched, authoritative
declarations (test tags, Kyverno policies, ServiceDefinitions) all live in YAML on lines a real
change necessarily touches, and the doc subtrees that matter (`conformance/`, `schemas/`,
`catalog/`, `clusters/`, `ci/`) stay covered by the path→requirement fallback regardless. The alternative fixes were worse:
adding five more `DOCUMENTED_GAPS` genuinely weakens the gate, and scrubbing requirement IDs out
of prose (precedent `f9e9640`) would mean vandalizing this log's own history to appease a matcher.
Gate after both fixes, run in the devcontainer: spec-immutability ✅ (spec pinned at `b633b7f`,
matching the sibling repo), lint ✅, Kyverno L0 ✅, L1 render 3/3 ✅ — **MERGE GATE: PASS**.
**OPEN / NEXT (carried forward):**
1. **Install UniFi OS Server in the guest** — the VM runs bare Ubuntu; `:11443` answers nothing
(CNP permits `cluster`→`:11443`, so it is genuinely not listening). Install is interactive with
a rotating signed URL — needs an operator decision (hand-install vs. a verified silent path).
2. **`R-STATE-02`** — the last safety-critical requirement with no L3 test (Longhorn node-loss).
Currently exempted via `DOCUMENTED_GAPS`.
3. **oauth2-proxy → post-platform tier** (twice-proven cold-start deadlock).
4. **OQ-BKP** — off-cluster backup target; gates Velero, CNPG DR depth, and `R-STATE-03`.
5. **OQ-2** — the `bulk` StorageClass exists but has `server/share: REPLACE-ME` and provisions
nothing; plex/arr/qbittorrent ship config-only until it is resolved.
6. **image-automation** still authored-but-disabled (needs a Gitea write-cred).
7. **Coverage matcher, remaining half.** The content-scan half is fixed (see above). The coarse
`path_requirements` half still over-matches: any `clusters/*` edit claims `R-ENV-02` +
`R-GITOPS-01`, which is why both remain in `DOCUMENTED_GAPS`. Tighten the path map, or scaffold
those two, and drop the exemptions (WS-TEST).
8. **`dev.sh` KUBECONFIG** defaults to the dead libvirt-era path
`infra/ansible/.cache/dev.kubeconfig` and `~/.kube` is not mounted — in-container kubectl needs
an explicit `DEV_KUBECONFIG` pointing at a break-glass cert kubeconfig (OIDC needs a browser).
9. **tofu state** is absent on a fresh workstation; a `tofu apply` with empty state would try to
recreate the three live nodes. Recover the state file or `tofu import` before planning changes.
10. **Docs hygiene.** This log going two days stale is what made the whole reconciliation necessary.

the full report is `conformance/_artifacts/coverage/coverage.md`.
The running narrative — decisions, root causes, incidents, follow-ups — is
[`DECISIONS-LOG.md`](DECISIONS-LOG.md). It, not this table, is the authoritative record.
## Working on this repo
Everything the gate needs is baked into the pinned dev container — **do not install the
toolchain on the host**:
```bash
infra/devcontainer/dev.sh build # once
infra/devcontainer/dev.sh run make -C ci gate # the same gate CI runs
infra/devcontainer/dev.sh # interactive shell (sops, flux, kubectl, tofu, ansible)
```
The container mounts the repo at `/work`, your age keyring, and the sibling spec repo read-only
so the spec-immutability check can actually run. See
[`infra/devcontainer/README.md`](infra/devcontainer/README.md).
A green run prints `MERGE GATE: PASS`. The L2/L3 conformance layers stay `SKIPPED` unless
`CLUSTER_AVAILABLE=true` — the static gate never pretends to have run them.

The optional L7 HTTPRoute (`90-httproute-optional.yaml`) was **dropped**, not merely disabled: UOS
serves HTTPS on `:11443`, so a Gateway route needs a `BackendTLSPolicy` that is not confirmed on
this Cilium version. Browser access is via the L4 VIP. Re-add it if/when that lands.
### Cloud-init delivery — two constraints learned the hard way
1. **KubeVirt caps inline `userData` at 2048 bytes.** The original rich cloud-init (full Podman
prep + `install-uos` helper) blew past it. A `userDataSecretRef` was tried, then reverted; the
shipped config is a **minimal ~1.1 KB inline `userData`**. Keep additions small or move to a
Secret deliberately.
2. **`apps-vms` must NOT use `postBuild.substituteFrom`.** Flux variable substitution rewrote
`$`-bearing text inside the cloud-init payload and **corrupted it**. `clusters/base/apps-vms.yaml`
therefore carries no `substituteFrom` — unlike every app wave. Do not "restore" it for consistency.
### Node prerequisites this VM forced onto the cluster
- **`nonroot-devices: true`** in the k3s server config (`infra/ansible/roles/k3s_server`) — the
non-root CDI importer must open a raw Block device that Kubernetes never chowns for it. Without
it: `blockdev: cannot open /dev/cdi-block-volume: Permission denied`.
- **`longhorn-scratch`** — a single-replica StorageClass for CDI scratch space; the default
3-replica class made the import fail with insufficient storage.
## UOS install method (researched)
@@ -72,38 +103,51 @@ or any UDP (`3478`/`10001`) — exactly the ports adoption rides. So:
`https://unifi.home.keithjackson.dev` via the Gateway is optional and needs a BackendTLSPolicy
(UOS is HTTPS-only on 11443) — see `90-httproute-optional.yaml`.
## Open questions / risks (need a PM decision or a live spike)
## Open questions / risks
1. **Unattended install (HIGH).** The installer is a **signed, account-tied** URL that **rotates/
expires** (cannot be committed) and is documented as **interactive** (no official silent flag).
cloud-init preps the host fully and provides an `install-uos` helper + an optional baked-URL
auto-run that pipes `yes`. **Decision needed:** accept "operator runs `install-uos` at bringup"
vs. invest in a verified silent path. First bringup should be treated as a spike.
2. **CDI http import (MEDIUM).** First http/qcow2 CDI import on this cluster; no checksum on an http
source. Consider pinning a dated build dir for reproducibility. Import needs the importer-egress
CNP (included).
3. **Boot firmware (LOW).** Ubuntu cloud images are hybrid BIOS+UEFI; default SeaBIOS should boot.
If not, add the `efi` firmware block (noted inline in `30-virtualmachine.yaml`).
4. **VIP `192.168.1.54` (LOW).** Confirm free, in-pool, and reserved in tofu (Gateway already holds
one pool IP, typically .53). Could not verify live — no kubeconfig cache in this worktree.
5. **Longhorn RWX prerequisite (BLOCKING).** `longhorn-vm` must exist with RWX/Block + migratable
before apply, else the DataVolume/VM stay Pending.
1. **Unattended install (HIGH) — STILL OPEN. This is the blocker.** The installer is a **signed,
account-tied** URL that **rotates/expires** (cannot be committed) and is documented as
**interactive** (no official silent flag). The shipped cloud-init had to be cut to ~1.1 KB for
the inline `userData` limit, so the `install-uos` helper is **no longer baked into the guest**.
**Decision needed:** operator runs the install by hand at bring-up (current de-facto answer), or
invest in a verified silent path (Secret-delivered cloud-init + a fetched-at-boot URL).
2. **CDI http import (MEDIUM) — RESOLVED in practice.** The import succeeded (first http/qcow2 CDI
import on this cluster). Still no checksum on an http source, and the URL tracks a *moving*
Ubuntu 24.04 build — pin a dated build dir if reproducibility matters. Needed two cluster-level
fixes (`nonroot-devices`, `longhorn-scratch`) — see above.
3. **Boot firmware (LOW) — RESOLVED.** Boots as shipped; running Ubuntu 24.04.4 LTS.
4. **VIP `192.168.1.54` (LOW) — RESOLVED.** Allocated and held by both Services, inside the
`192.168.1.53–.60` pool (`.53` is the shared Gateway).
5. **Longhorn RWX prerequisite (was BLOCKING) — RESOLVED.** `longhorn-vm` is live (RWX / Block /
migratable); the VMI reports `LiveMigratable=True` and `StorageLiveMigratable=True`.
6. **Licensing (LOW).** UOS self-host is free; a Ubiquiti account is needed only to fetch the
installer and for optional remote access.
7. **Broadcast adoption (LOW, by design).** L2 auto-discovery (`10001/udp`) does not cross the pod
masquerade boundary — see the L4 section. Expect explicit inform-host adoption.
## Post-merge bring-up + verification
## Remaining bring-up
1. **Prereq:** `longhorn-vm` StorageClass live (RWX, Block, migratable). Confirm `192.168.1.54` free.
2. PM adds `apps/unifi` to the right wave in `apps/kustomization.yaml`; reconcile.
3. Watch the CDI import: `kubectl -n unifi get dv unifi-rootdisk -w` → `Succeeded`.
4. VM starts: `kubectl -n unifi get vmi unifi` → `Running`. LB VIP: `kubectl -n unifi get svc` →
both show `192.168.1.54`.
5. **Install UOS** (if not auto-run): get the signed URL from ui.com, then in the guest
`sudo UOS_URL='https://fw-download.ubnt.com/...' install-uos`. Access the guest via
`virtctl console unifi` / SSH once cloud-init adds a key.
6. Verify UI: browse `https://unifi.home.keithjackson.dev:11443`, complete first-run wizard.
7. Verify DNS: `dig unifi.home.keithjackson.dev` → `192.168.1.54`.
Steps 1–4 below are **done**. The sequence is kept because it is also the recovery/rebuild runbook.
1. ~~`longhorn-vm` StorageClass live; `192.168.1.54` free.~~ **Done.**
2. ~~Wire into a reconciled path~~ — **done**, via `apps/vms/` + the non-gating `apps-vms`
Kustomization (not an app wave).
3. ~~CDI import~~ — **done**: `kubectl -n unifi get dv unifi-rootdisk` → `Succeeded`.
4. ~~VM + VIP~~ — **done**: `kubectl -n unifi get vmi unifi` → `Running`; both Services show
`192.168.1.54`.
5. **→ NEXT: install UOS in the guest.** SSH in (the inline cloud-init installs the operator's key
and `qemu-guest-agent`) or `virtctl console unifi`, fetch the signed installer URL from
ui.com/download/software/unifi-os-server, then `chmod +x` and run it **as root**.
6. Verify the UI: `https://unifi.home.keithjackson.dev:11443` (or `https://192.168.1.54:11443`),
complete the first-run wizard.
7. Verify DNS: `dig unifi.home.keithjackson.dev` → `192.168.1.54` on the cluster LAN.
8. Adopt a device: set its inform to `http://192.168.1.54:8080/inform`; confirm it appears + STUN
connects (green). Test guest portal / throughput if used.
9. Verify default-deny holds: only the declared L4 ports reachable; VM egress limited to world+DNS.
10. (Optional) Enable the L7 HTTPRoute once BackendTLSPolicy is confirmed on this Cilium version.
10. (Optional) Re-add the L7 HTTPRoute once `BackendTLSPolicy` is confirmed on this Cilium version.
**Quick health check today:**
```bash
kubectl -n unifi get dv,vmi,svc

# Phase 1 — Execution Status & Resume Guide
# Dev cluster — current state & reconnect guide
**Checkpoint: 2026-08-16.** The dev/test cluster is **built and running**. Phase 1 is paused before
the Flux/SOPS bootstrap (a deliberate decision — see "Remaining"). This doc is how a future session
picks up.
**Last verified: 2026-08-26.** Phase 1 is **complete and long since exited**; the cluster has been
running the full platform (phases 2–6) for some time. This doc is how a session — human or agent —
reconnects to it and re-establishes the toolchain.
## DONE — a live 3-node HA k3s + Cilium cluster (T-1.1/1.2/1.3)
- `tofu apply` created the `k3s-dev` NAT network (10.73.0.0/24) + 3 VMs (`k3s-dev-1/2/3`,
6 GiB/4 vCPU, 20 G OS + 40 G data, host-passthrough) — all **running**.
- cloud-init baselined the nodes; k3s HA (embedded etcd, 3 servers) + Cilium installed by Ansible.
- **Live health:** `kubectl get nodes` → **3/3 Ready**; `cilium status` → **OK**; CoreDNS up.

### Fixes applied during execution (committed to main)
- `ansible.cfg`: `stdout_callback yaml` removed in ansible-core 2.20 → builtin default.
- `cilium-values`: `egressGateway` requires `bpf.masquerade: true` (+ `enableIPv4Masquerade`) or the
agent fatals — added.
## The cluster
## Toolchain reality (important for resume)
The pinned **dev container** (`infra/devcontainer/`) holds flux/sops/age/kubectl/helm. BUT:
- **`tofu` runs on the HOST** — the `dmacvicar/libvirt` provider's read-write connect fails inside a
container (`Cannot find start time for pid`). The pinned binary was extracted to
**`~/.local/bin/tofu`** (OpenTofu 1.9.0). Run tofu from the host with `LIBVIRT_DEFAULT_URI=qemu:///system`.
- **`ansible` runs on the HOST** (pre-installed ansible-core 2.20; needs native network to the nodes).
## State locations (persisted on disk; gitignored)
| What | Path |
| | |
|---|---|
| tofu state | `infra/tofu/terraform.tfstate` |
| tofu vars (ssh pubkey) | `infra/tofu/terraform.tfvars` |
| cluster kubeconfig | `infra/ansible/.cache/dev.kubeconfig` (API at 10.73.0.11:6443) |
| SSH key | `~/.ssh/home_network` (user `k3s`, NOPASSWD sudo) |
| VMs / network | libvirt `qemu:///system` (`virsh list`, net `k3s-dev`) |
| Substrate | Proxmox VE host, node `proxmox`, disks on the `Storage` ZFS datastore, bridge `vmbr0` |
| Nodes | `k3s-dev-1/2/3` at `192.168.1.50 / .51 / .52` — 6 vCPU, 16 GiB, Debian 12 (bookworm) |
| k3s | **v1.31.5+k3s1**, 3 servers, embedded etcd (HA); no flannel / kube-proxy / Traefik |
| CNI | Cilium 1.16.5 (kube-proxy replacement, L2 announcements, egress gateway) |
| kube-API | kube-vip VIP **`192.168.1.49:6443`**, tls-san'd on the serving cert |
| Ingress VIP | **`192.168.1.53`** (shared Gateway). Pool `192.168.1.53–.60` for LB VIPs; UniFi holds `.54` |
| Storage | Longhorn 1.7.3 — classes `longhorn` (default), `longhorn-static`, `longhorn-vm` (RWX/Block, migratable), `longhorn-scratch`. `bulk` (NFS CSI) is a **non-provisioning stub** pending OQ-2 |
| Nested virt | `cpu_type = host` → real KVM in-guest; KubeVirt + CDI run on it |
Everything above is provisioned by IaC: [`tofu/`](tofu/) creates the VMs,
[`cloud-init/`](cloud-init/) baselines first boot, [`ansible/`](ansible/) installs k3s, Cilium,
kube-vip and the VPN egress gateway. Flux then reconciles the whole platform from `clusters/dev`.
## Network path from the workstation (there is a NAT in the way)
The workstation is **not** on the cluster LAN. A pfSense NAT bridges the two:
| Purpose | Workstation-side target | Forwards to |
|---|---|---|
| kube-API | `https://192.168.2.50:6443` | kube-vip VIP `192.168.1.49:6443` |
| Node SSH (Ansible only) | `192.168.2.102:2250 / 2251 / 2252` | `192.168.1.50 / .51 / .52` port 22 |
| Proxmox API | `https://192.168.2.102:8006/` | the Proxmox host |
TLS through the NAT validates because the kubeconfig sets `tls-server-name: 192.168.1.49` — the
VIP is in the serving cert's SAN list, so the NAT address does not have to be.
There is **no SSH tunnel** any more; the old tunnel was retired when kube-vip + the NAT landed.
## Access
**kubectl — Keycloak SSO (normal path).** `~/.kube/config` context **`k3s-oidc`** authenticates
against the `homelab` realm via `kubelogin` (auth-code + PKCE, public client, no secret in the
kubeconfig). Group membership maps to RBAC by `platform/keycloak/k8s-oidc-rbac.yaml`:
## Reconnect / manage
```bash
infra/cluster.sh status # VMs + kubectl get nodes
infra/cluster.sh start|stop # boot/graceful-shutdown the 3 VMs (state persists on disk)
eval "$(infra/cluster.sh kubeconfig)" # export KUBECONFIG
kubectl get nodes
ssh -i ~/.ssh/home_network [email protected]
```
The VMs are **running** at checkpoint (~18 GiB RAM). `infra/cluster.sh stop` frees RAM; k3s/etcd/
Cilium recover on `start` (data on the disks).
kubectl config use-context k3s-oidc
kubectl auth whoami # -> oidc:<you>, groups [oidc:platform-admins ...]
```
## REMAINING Phase 1
- **T-1.4 Flux + SOPS bootstrap — Option A (decided):** start the host Gitea (`bootstrap/gitea/`),
push this repo, `flux install`, apply the `flux-system` GitRepository + age Secret — but **keep the
`platform` and `apps` Kustomizations SUSPENDED**. This proves Flux reconciles from the host Gitea
(Phase-1 exit) WITHOUT unleashing the incomplete Phase-0 platform stubs on the working cluster.
- **T-1.5** destroy/rebuild proof (`tofu destroy` a node → `apply` → re-join), then flip
`CLUSTER_AVAILABLE=true` so conformance L2/L3 runs.
`oidc:platform-admins` → `cluster-admin`, `oidc:viewers` → `view`. First use opens a browser, so
this path needs an interactive desktop.
## Phase 2 prerequisite (before un-suspending `platform/`)
The Phase-0 `platform/` HelmReleases are stubs. **Do NOT let Flux reconcile them onto this cluster
until:** `platform/cilium` `k8sServiceHost` is set to **10.73.0.11** (parity with the Ansible install,
docs/02) and the REPLACE-ME values / secrets (Cloudflare token T-2.4p, etc.) are filled — otherwise
Flux would `helm upgrade` Cilium with a broken value and could break the running CNI.
**kubectl — cert kubeconfig (break-glass).** The k3s admin cert kubeconfig from
`/etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml` on `k3s-dev-1` (rewrite the server to `https://192.168.2.50:6443` and
add `tls-server-name: 192.168.1.49`). Fully independent of Keycloak — **use this when OIDC, the
gateway, or Keycloak itself is down.** Headless contexts (CI jobs, containers, agents) also need
this, since they cannot complete a browser login.
**Node SSH.** `ssh -i ~/.ssh/home_network -p 2250 [email protected]` (user `k3s`, NOPASSWD sudo).
Ports 2251/2252 for nodes 2/3.
## Toolchain — use the dev container, not the host
Every pinned tool (tofu, ansible, sops, age, flux, kubectl, helm **and** the full CI gate
toolchain: yamllint, check-jsonschema, kyverno, chainsaw, yq) lives in the image:
```bash
infra/devcontainer/dev.sh build # once
infra/devcontainer/dev.sh run make -C ci gate # exactly what CI runs
infra/devcontainer/dev.sh # interactive shell at /work
```
Unlike the libvirt era, **tofu and ansible now run fine inside the container** — the
`bpg/proxmox` provider talks to the Proxmox API over the network and needs no host libvirt socket,
which is what broke the old `dmacvicar/libvirt` provider in a container.
`dev.sh` mounts the repo at `/work`, `~/.ssh` (read-only), `~/.config/sops` (the age keyring —
**persisted on the host, or you lose access to every SOPS secret**), the ansible-vault passphrase
file, and the sibling spec repo read-only at `/home-network-k3s` so the spec-immutability
check runs instead of silently skipping.
> **Known gap.** `dev.sh` defaults `KUBECONFIG` to `/work/infra/ansible/.cache/dev.kubeconfig`,
> a libvirt-era path that no longer exists, and does not mount `~/.kube`. In-container `kubectl`
> therefore needs an explicit `DEV_KUBECONFIG=<path to a break-glass cert kubeconfig>` — the OIDC
> context cannot work there anyway (no browser). Not yet fixed.
## Off-repo state you must not lose
| What | Where |
|---|---|
| SOPS **age private key** | `~/.config/sops/age/keys.txt` — losing it locks you out of every encrypted secret |
| Ansible vault passphrase | `~/.config/home-k3s/ansible-vault-pass` |
| Node SSH key | `~/.ssh/home_network` |
| Proxmox API token | operator env only (`PROXMOX_VE_API_TOKEN`) — never a tofu var, never in state |
| tofu state | `infra/tofu/terraform.tfstate` (gitignored) — **absent on a fresh workstation**; a `tofu apply` without it would try to recreate the live nodes |
| Generated SSO secrets | `~/.config/home-k3s/keycloak-sso-secrets.txt` |
## Health check
```bash
kubectl get nodes # 3/3 Ready
flux get kustomizations # flux-system, platform, platform-config,
# apps-wave-0/1/2, apps-vms — all Ready
kubectl get helmreleases -A # all Ready
kubectl get cluster -A # CNPG: keycloak-db, nextcloud-db, semaphore-db
kubectl get vmi -A # unifi Running
```
## Flux's git source is inside the cluster — mind the loop
`GitRepository/flux-system` points at **`https://gitea.home.keithjackson.dev/Home-Network/home-network-k3s-impl.git`**:
the **in-cluster** Gitea, which is itself an app Flux deploys in `apps/wave-0`. Resolution goes
through split-horizon CoreDNS → Gateway VIP `192.168.1.53`, so a Flux reconcile depends on Gitea,
the Gateway, CoreDNS and the wildcard cert all being up.
In practice this is stable — Gitea's Deployment and PVC survive a reboot and come back without
Flux's help, so a Proxmox host reboot self-heals (VMs auto-start, cluster reconverges). The loop
only bites if Gitea is **lost** rather than restarted. The recovery path is the host bootstrap
Gitea (`bash bootstrap/gitea/bootstrap-gitea.sh`) plus repointing the GitRepository at it — that
is what the `bootstrap/` tree exists for, and it is the reason the bootstrap Gitea is kept.
**Push target.** `origin` is that same in-cluster Gitea, so `git push origin main` *is* the deploy.
There is no separate "apply" step and no GitHub remote.

# infra/ — Phase 1 node provisioning (local KVM)
# infra/ — node provisioning and the toolchain
OpenTofu (libvirt) + cloud-init + Ansible bring up the 3-node k3s/Cilium cluster.
See PHASE1-SCOPE.md. Spec: ../home-network-k3s/docs/02-environments-and-provisioning.md.
OpenTofu (**Proxmox VE**) + cloud-init + Ansible bring up the 3-node k3s/Cilium dev cluster.

## Where the cluster actually lives
The dev cluster is **not** on this workstation. It runs on a Proxmox VE host; the nodes sit on the
Proxmox LAN and are reached across a pfSense NAT:
| | |
|---|---|
| Nodes | `k3s-dev-1/2/3` at `192.168.1.50/.51/.52` — 6 vCPU, 16 GiB, Debian 12, k3s v1.31.5 |
| kube-API | kube-vip VIP `192.168.1.49:6443`, reached from the workstation via NAT `192.168.2.50:6443` |
| Node SSH | pfSense NAT `192.168.2.102:2250/2251/2252` → node `:22` (Ansible only) |
| Ingress VIP | `192.168.1.53` (Cilium L2, shared Gateway); `.53–.60` reserved for LB VIPs |
The earlier libvirt/KVM cluster on `10.73.0.0/24` is **retired**. Any doc or command referencing
`virsh`, `qemu:///system`, or `10.73.0.x` for the cluster is historical.

# Dev toolbox (containerized baseline)
The Phase 1 prerequisites are **not all Python** (OpenTofu, `age`, `sops`, `flux` are Go binaries;
only Ansible is Python). Per the operator's rule, the toolchain is therefore a **pinned dev
container** baked with everything needed to drive the local KVM cluster — no host pollution, one
reproducible baseline.
The toolchain for this repo is **not all Python** (OpenTofu, `age`, `sops`, `flux`, `chainsaw`,
`kyverno` are Go binaries; only Ansible and a couple of linters are Python). Per the operator's
rule it is therefore delivered as a **pinned dev container** — no host pollution, one reproducible
baseline, and the *same* binaries CI uses.
**This is the supported way to run anything in this repo.** Don't install the toolchain on the host.
## What's inside (pinned in `versions.env`)
OpenTofu, `age` + `age-keygen`, `sops`, `flux`, `kubectl`, `helm`, `ansible-core`, `libvirt-client`
(so the tofu `dmacvicar/libvirt` provider can talk to the host libvirt), `qemu-img`, cloud-init seed
tooling (`cloud-utils`/`genisoimage`), `openssh-clients`, and common utilities.
| Group | Tools |
|---|---|
| Provisioning | OpenTofu (`bpg/proxmox` provider), `ansible-core`, `openssh-clients` |
| GitOps / cluster | `flux`, `kubectl`, `helm` |
| Secrets | `sops`, `age` + `age-keygen` |
| **CI gate** | `yamllint`, `check-jsonschema`, `kyverno` CLI, `kyverno-json`, `chainsaw`, `yq`, `diffutils`, `make` |
| Misc | `qemu-img`, `cloud-utils`/`genisoimage`, `libvirt-client` (disk-image utilities only — leftovers from the libvirt era, harmless) |
The conformance-tool versions are kept in lockstep with `ci/versions.env` so
`make -C ci gate` in here is byte-identical to the CI runner (**R-TEST-02**). The image records
the resolved set at `/etc/dev-toolchain-versions`.
## Use
```bash
cd infra/devcontainer
./dev.sh build # build the image (needs network: base image + pinned binaries)
./dev.sh # build if needed + open a shell in /work (the repo)
./dev.sh run tofu -version
./dev.sh build # build the image (needs network)
./dev.sh # build if needed + shell in /work (the repo)
./dev.sh run make -C ci gate # the merge gate, exactly as CI runs it
./dev.sh run sops -d path/to.sops.yaml
./dev.sh run tofu -chdir=/work/infra/tofu plan
```
`ENGINE=docker ./dev.sh` to use docker instead of rootless podman.
## How it reaches the host KVM
`dev.sh` runs the container with:
- `--network host` — so Ansible can SSH to the cluster VMs on the `k3s-dev` NAT subnet
(10.73.0.0/24) and `kubectl`/`flux` can reach the API server.
- `-v /run/libvirt:/run/libvirt` + `LIBVIRT_DEFAULT_URI=qemu:///system` — so OpenTofu/virsh drive
the host libvirt daemon (the socket is world-writable; no group change needed).
- `--security-opt label=disable` — lets the container use the host libvirt socket without
relabeling it (SELinux hosts).
- `-v $REPO:/work` and `-v ~/.ssh:/root/.ssh:ro` — the repo and your SSH keys.
## What `dev.sh` mounts, and why each one matters
## Known limitation — run `tofu` and `ansible` on the HOST, not in the container
Discovered during Phase 1 bring-up (see `../PHASE1-STATUS.md`):
- **OpenTofu + `dmacvicar/libvirt`** fails *inside* the container — its read-write `qemu:///system`
connect hits a polkit/PID-identity path (`Cannot find start time for pid`) that a mounted socket
can't satisfy across the PID namespace (`--pid=host` didn't help). **Run the pinned tofu on the
host** (extract once: `podman run --rm -v ~/.local/bin:/out home-k3s-dev:local cp /usr/local/bin/tofu /out/`;
then `LIBVIRT_DEFAULT_URI=qemu:///system ~/.local/bin/tofu ...`).
- **Ansible** talks to the cluster VMs over SSH; simplest to run the pre-installed host `ansible-core`
with native networking to the `k3s-dev` NAT subnet.
- The container remains the baseline for **flux/sops/age/kubectl/helm** (used from inside with
`--network host` once the cluster exists).
- `--network host` — Ansible SSHes to the nodes through the pfSense NAT (`192.168.2.102:225x`) and
`kubectl`/`flux`/`tofu` reach the kube-API (`192.168.2.50:6443`) and the Proxmox API
(`192.168.2.102:8006`) on the host's network.
- `-v $REPO:/work` (workdir) — the repo.
- `-v ~/.config/sops:/root/.config/sops` — **the age keyring, read-write**. This is deliberate: the
private key generated by `bootstrap/sops/age-keygen.sh` must land on the *host*, or it dies with
the `--rm` container and every SOPS-encrypted secret in the repo becomes undecryptable.
- `-v ~/.ssh:/root/.ssh:ro` — node SSH key (`home_network`).
- `-v ~/.config/home-k3s/ansible-vault-pass:...:ro` — the Ansible vault passphrase, so vaulted
`group_vars` decrypt unattended.
- `-v ../home-network-k3s:/home-network-k3s:ro` + `SPEC_REPO` — the **spec repo**, read-only, when
it exists beside this one. Without it `ci/spec-immutability.sh` honestly *skips*
rather than passing — mount it, or that gate silently verifies nothing.
- `--security-opt label=disable` — SELinux hosts, so the bind mounts work without relabeling.
## tofu and ansible now run **inside** the container
This reverses the old Phase-1 limitation. When the dev cluster was on host libvirt, OpenTofu's
`dmacvicar/libvirt` provider could not do a read-write `qemu:///system` connect from inside a
container (polkit/PID-identity: `Cannot find start time for pid`), so tofu had to be extracted and
run on the host. The cluster moved to **Proxmox VE** and the provider is now `bpg/proxmox`, which
talks to the Proxmox **HTTP API** — nothing host-local is required. Ansible likewise only needs
SSH, which `--network host` provides.
So: run everything in here. The host needs only podman (or docker).
## kubectl inside the container — known gap
`dev.sh` sets `KUBECONFIG` to `/work/infra/ansible/.cache/dev.kubeconfig`, a **libvirt-era path
that no longer exists**, and does not mount `~/.kube`. Override it explicitly:
```bash
DEV_KUBECONFIG=/work/path/to/break-glass.kubeconfig ./dev.sh run kubectl get nodes
```
Use a **break-glass cert kubeconfig**, not the `k3s-oidc` context — OIDC login needs a browser,
which a container shell does not have. See [`../PHASE1-STATUS.md`](../PHASE1-STATUS.md) for both
access paths. (Not yet fixed in `dev.sh`.)
## Notes
- Versions are **best-effort pins**; if a download 404s at build, bump the value in `versions.env`
(one line) to the current stable and rebuild. The image records the resolved set at
`/etc/dev-toolchain-versions`.
- Secrets never enter the image. The SOPS **age private key** is generated at bootstrap and kept
out of git (`.gitignore` guards `age.key`).
- This container is the toolchain, not the cluster. It provisions the 3 KVM nodes (T-1.1–T-1.4);
the cluster itself runs on libvirt on the host.
and rebuild. Keep the conformance-tool block aligned with `ci/versions.env`.
- **Secrets never enter the image** — they arrive only as the bind mounts listed above.
- This container is the toolchain, not the cluster. The cluster runs on Proxmox VE; see
[`../PHASE1-STATUS.md`](../PHASE1-STATUS.md).
