STEP 1 — enable Gitea Actions: pin GITEA__actions__ENABLED=true and
DEFAULT_ACTIONS_URL=github in the gitea bootstrap patch (was implicit upstream
default; make it a declared property).
STEP 2 — deploy + register an act_runner in a dedicated non-app namespace
(gitea-actions) so the privileged DinD executor sidecar is admitted without a
Kyverno policy exception (restrict-host-namespaces scopes to app namespaces only).
Docker executor + DinD sidecar over a shared TLS-cert emptyDir; runner state on a
Longhorn PVC (registers once). Registration token delivered as a SOPS-encrypted
Secret decrypted by Flux. Runner mounts no ServiceAccount token (R-SEC-02).
STEP 3 — author .gitea/workflows/gate.yml: the live enforced merge gate running
the STATIC layers (spec-immutability best-effort, lint, Kyverno L0, L1 render) via
`make -C ci lint l0 l1` with the pinned toolchain installed at job start. L2/L3
conformance is an if:false placeholder (needs a toolchain image + scoped cluster
creds — a design decision, not wired). merge-gate.yaml reduced to workflow_dispatch
(dormant full-pipeline blueprint). install-tools.sh gains check-jsonschema so the
schema stage validates in CI instead of skipping.

Two defects blocked in-cluster Gitea from becoming the Flux source:
1. Storage mountPath: the renderer hard-coded /data/<name>, so Gitea's PVC
mounted at /data/data while Gitea writes all state to /data — real repos/DB
landed on the ephemeral rootfs. Add an OPTIONAL `mountPath` to the storage
schema + render.py (default stays /data/<name>, back-compat). catalog/gitea.yaml
sets data.mountPath: /data. Only gitea.yaml's rendered mount changes; every
other app renders byte-identical.
2. Headless install: the instance was un-installed (INSTALL_LOCK=false, ephemeral
SECRET_KEY, no admin, API 404). A Gitea-only supplementary manifest
(apps/gitea-bootstrap-patch.yaml) patches the rendered Deployment with
GITEA__security__INSTALL_LOCK=true, a FIXED SECRET_KEY from a persistent SOPS
secret (apps/gitea-bootstrap-secret.sops.yaml), ROOT_URL/DOMAIN, and a postStart
hook that idempotently creates a break-glass local admin. State persists on the
now-correct /data Longhorn PVC.
The env/lifecycle wiring is a supplementary kustomize patch because the
ServiceDefinition schema/renderer does not yet express env/envFrom/lifecycle —
noted as a renderer follow-up (TODO in the patch).
