jakman85andClaude Opus 5 4080065aa7 feat(dns): exposure: internal can no longer publish a public record
docs/09 R-DNS-03 and schemas/renderer-contract.md both said an `internal`
service renders no public DNS record. Nothing enforced either sentence.
ExternalDNS's `gateway-httproute` source admitted EVERY HTTPRoute on the shared
Gateway, so six `exposure: internal` services — jackett, pihole, qbittorrent,
radarr, semaphore, sonarr — published `<name>.home.keithjackson.dev` into the
public authoritative Cloudflare zone answering with the Gateway VIP
192.168.2.20. That published the internal subnet, the Gateway VIP and a full
service inventory to anyone who could guess a label, and made each of those
names a DNS-rebind primitive — which is why the SOHO router strips RFC1918
answers and LAN clients need per-client dnsmasq overrides to reach their own
services.

THE MECHANISM, established against the DEPLOYED version rather than from
memory. The live prod Deployment runs
registry.k8s.io/external-dns/external-dns:v0.21.0. In v0.21.0,
source/annotations/processors.go IsControllerMismatch() skips a source object
whose `external-dns.alpha.kubernetes.io/controller` annotation is present and
!= its own `dns-controller`, and source/gateway.go applies that check inside
Endpoints() BEFORE any hostname is resolved; source/service.go applies the
identical check, covering the second configured source. catalog/render.py now
emits that annotation on every HTTPRoute it renders for an `internal` service,
derived from `exposure` alone — no per-service list — so a service that omits
`exposure` inherits the internal default and is unpublishable too. Verified
LIVE on prod on a throwaway hostname with no existing record at risk: the
annotated route published nothing, and adding the annotation to a route that
already had a record produced action=DELETE for both its A record and its `a-`
TXT registry entry one ~60s reconcile later, moving nothing else in the zone.

WHY PER-RESOURCE AND NOT A CLUSTER-WIDE OPT-IN FILTER. `labelFilter` is the
stronger default posture and v0.21.0 supports it for both configured sources,
but nine publishing objects here are hand-authored platform/apps manifests with
no `exposure` field, seven of which hold live records (auth, crafty, crafty-mc,
grafana, headlamp, the apex, unifi). An opt-in filter deletes all seven at
once, and whether each should be publicly resolvable is an operator decision
per name. Per-resource exclusion has exactly the blast radius of the defect;
the seven are enumerated in a shrink-only register so the unadjudicated set
cannot grow silently, and the filter stays available as hardening afterwards.

`policy: sync`, `txtOwnerId` and `domainFilters` are UNTOUCHED. Per-resource
exclusion only ever removes an object from this instance's view, so nothing
here makes prod capable of deleting a record it does not own.

WHAT THIS DELETES, and it is not reversible by a revert alone: 12 records — the
A record and the `a-`-prefixed TXT registry entry for each of jackett, pihole,
qbittorrent, radarr, semaphore and sonarr. The zone has no
`*.home.keithjackson.dev` wildcard and `*.keithjackson.dev` does not match two
labels, so each becomes a public NXDOMAIN with no fallback. The complete
pre-state is captured at the authority and committed as a recovery baseline
(.standup-dns/dns-20260914-pre-externaldns-scope.txt), with the restore
procedure for both halves of a record.

MERGE ORDER IS NOT OPTIONAL: feat/pihole-lan-dns-authority must land and be
verified first. Removing these records while the LAN still depends on them,
with the router stripping RFC1918 and no internal authority yet, breaks name
resolution outright.

The five `exposure: public` services are LEFT UNCHANGED and still answer with
the Gateway VIP, so they remain publicly unreachable. That is two open operator
decisions, both written up in platform/externaldns/helmrelease.yaml: what
address they should answer with (136.51.115.252 is the legacy non-k3s stack
serving a placeholder cert, not established as correct for this cluster), and
how to separate them from the non-public names that share the Gateway —
because in v0.21.0 the target annotation is read only from the GATEWAY and a
ListenerSet, never from an HTTPRoute, so a per-service override is not
expressible while they all attach to `shared`. No knob is added for it yet: one
that cannot take effect invites someone to set it and expect one.

Guard: conformance/tests/l0-static/internal-services-publish-no-public-dns, a
whole-repo-scoped L0 static check (no ci/l0.sh stage — the
whole-repo-invariants-wired meta-test forbids one). It asserts both directions
(present on internal, absent on public), the `service`-source half, that the
renderer DERIVES the annotation from `exposure` and cannot emit external-dns's
own claiming value, proves the shipped renderer end-to-end on
internal/public/omitted-field fixtures, and ratchets the non-catalog register.
Proven to fail on the pre-fix tree (9 of 53 assertions, naming all six
services) and pass after (56/56).

Schema 1.6.0 -> 1.7.0: no field changes, a mapping change to `exposure`.

jakman85andClaude Opus 5 cf7d97e546 fix(obs): twelve app SLI rules read a signal that exists; kill the dead ServiceMonitors
Twelve `<app>-down` SLI rules were STRUCTURALLY INERT. Each read `up{job="<app>"} == 0`,
and the ServiceMonitor rendered beside it named `endpoints[].port: metrics` — a port NO
rendered app Service defined. Every monitor discovered ZERO targets, so no `up{job="<app>"}`
series existed and the rule could not fire. Verified on prod before this change:
`count by (job) (up)` listed 24 jobs and not one of the twelve appeared; `up{job="plex"}`
and `up{job="gitea"}` both returned nothing. `PrometheusTargetsMissing` could not see it
either — a target that was never discovered has no `up` series to be 0.

THE PORT NAME WAS NEVER THE MISSING PIECE. Ground truth per app: Plex, Pi-hole, Jackett,
qBittorrent, Sonarr, Radarr, Seerr, Semaphore and Nextcloud export NO Prometheus metrics
without a separate exporter sidecar; Gitea can but only with app.ini metrics enabled;
Keycloak does, on the operator's management port, already scraped by
platform/keycloak/servicemonitor.yaml; vm-demo is a KubeVirt VM with no Service at all, so
its monitor selected nothing whatsoever. `metrics: true` was asserting a fact none of them
had. There was also a THIRD layer of inertness nobody had hit yet: every app namespace ships
default-deny with `ingress: []` and the renderer emitted no monitoring allow, so even a
correct port would have been dropped by policy — while renderer-contract.md claimed the
baseline carried such an allow.

FIXED IN THE GENERATOR, not in twelve rendered files:
  * `slis: [up]` now renders a `<app>-down` alert against kube-state-metrics readiness of the
    service's own workload object —
    `kube_deployment_status_replicas_available{namespace,deployment} == 0 or absent(...)`,
    `kube_statefulset_status_replicas_ready` for a StatefulSet, and
    `absent(kubevirt_vmi_info{namespace,name,phase="running"})` for a VM. The same idiom
    KeycloakDown has used since it was fixed. kube-state-metrics IS scraped, so this needs no
    exporter and no new target. The `or absent(...)` half is load-bearing: the signal
    DISAPPEARING now fires the alert instead of silencing it.
  * schema 1.6.0 adds `observability.metricsEndpoint` — WHERE metrics are served. A
    ServiceMonitor is rendered ONLY from it, and it renders all three halves of a working
    scrape together: the named Service port, the monitor endpoint, and the
    monitoring-namespace CiliumNetworkPolicy allow. No catalog entry declares one, so twelve
    dead ServiceMonitors are gone. `metrics: true` keeps meaning logs-to-Loki plus
    kube-state-metrics liveness.
  * schema 1.6.0 also adds `observability.livenessWorkload`, and catalog/keycloak.yaml uses
    it. Keycloak's server is a StatefulSet run by the operator; the default Deployment shape
    would have made its `absent()` half fire FOREVER — the other failure mode this repo has
    shipped.
  * renderer selftest gains cases 9/9a/9b/9c: no metricsEndpoint => no monitor; the up SLI
    must not read `up{job=...}`; endpoint port must exist on the Service; the metrics port
    must NOT reach the Gateway allow; an unknown livenessWorkload.kind is REFUSED.

PROOF, both directions, for all twelve (apps/wave-{0,1,2}/tests/app-slis.test.yaml, run by
platform/monitoring/tests/run.sh over the RENDERED manifests):
  * quiet on the healthy state; firing on no-ready-replica; firing when the series is ABSENT;
    the VM asserted both gone and in a non-running phase; per-app isolation asserted, and
    keycloak asserted un-maskable by its neighbours (keycloak-operator Deployment,
    keycloak-db StatefulSet ready in the same namespace).
  * mutation-checked: six mutations, each turning its suite red — reverting plex to
    `up{job=...} == 0`; dropping seerr's `absent()` half; pointing keycloak at a Deployment;
    capitalising the VMI phase to `Running`; widening keycloak's matcher to the namespace;
    inverting plex's `== 0` to `!= 0`. Control run green.
  * live on prod with `promtool query instant`: all ten deployed app Deployments export
    `kube_deployment_status_replicas_available`,
    `kube_statefulset_status_replicas_ready{namespace="keycloak",statefulset="keycloak"}` = 2,
    `kubevirt_vmi_info` present with a lowercase `phase="running"`; and evaluating the twelve
    SHIPPED expressions returns no series for eleven (quiet, not permanently firing). The
    twelfth is vm-demo, which is not in apps/wave-0/kustomization.yaml and so is not deployed
    — its rule is not applied either.

DELETION WAS NOT THE ANSWER, and the evidence is recorded rather than assumed:
kube-prometheus-stack's `kubernetes-apps` group IS live on prod (17 rules, KubePodNotReady /
KubeDeploymentReplicasMismatch among them), so app pods are not unmonitored — but that is a
generic warning keyed to a namespace, not the per-service CRITICAL SLI R-OBS-01 declares.
platform/monitoring/alerts.yaml carries no generic app-readiness rule at all.

GUARD SO IT CANNOT RECUR SILENTLY: new whole-repo L0 invariant
conformance/tests/l0-static/servicemonitor-ports-resolve. It walks the MONITORS, not the
alerts, so it needs no `up{job=...}` rule to reach one, and resolves each endpoint by SELECTOR
across the whole tree rather than by same-file adjacency. Fixing the alerts DELETED the only
thing that made the broken monitors visible to the sibling check, which is exactly why this
axis needed its own home. It declares `conformance.home.k3s/scope: whole-repo` and adds no
ci/l0.sh stage. Proven to FAIL on the pre-fix tree: 15 failures — eleven port disagreements,
vm-demo's monitor matching no Service at all, and the three generator/contract assertions —
and to pass after. Its resolver is additionally proven on in-check fixtures (agreeing pair
accepted, disagreeing pair rejected, target-less endpoint rejected), because after the fix
there are zero in-repo monitors left for it to judge and a guard whose only evidence is
"nothing failed" cannot be told apart from one that stopped working. It also asserts
r_servicemonitor does not HARDCODE a port name — the mechanism by which one edit gave twelve
services the same wrong one.

Also fixed, found on the way:
  * platform/monitoring/tests/run.sh discovered the SUITE convention only inside
    platform/monitoring/tests/ while documenting it as general — a suite added anywhere else
    was never run and still looked like coverage. Now discovered tree-wide; a misplaced
    *.test.yaml fails loudly instead of vanishing.
  * KNOWN_UNWIRED_JOBS in alert-metrics-have-scrape-targets is now EMPTY, and the twelve
    apps/* entries in alert-rules-unit-tested's UNTESTED_FILES are gone — both because the
    gaps were CLOSED, not waived. Both registers are shrink-only and a stale entry fails.
  * renderer-contract.md claimed the default-deny baseline carried a standing monitoring
    scrape allow. It never did; the claim is corrected and the allow is now real, per declared
    metrics endpoint and scoped to that one port.

jakman85andClaude Opus 5 1f20506829 feat(renderer): inClusterClients — authorable direct east-west ingress (schema 1.5.0)
A platform controller that dials a service's ClusterIP directly had NO authorable
form in the ServiceDefinition contract:

  * ingressRoutes renders the north-south allow only — gateway-ingress admits
    `fromEntities: [ingress]`, the Gateway's Envoy identity, and nothing else;
  * dependencies compiles edges only BETWEEN CATALOG SERVICES, from the source
    entry's own declaration.

Under the default-deny baseline (R-NET-01) such a client is therefore DROPPED, and
the only way to unblock it was a live `kubectl apply` of a hand-written CNP — a
cluster object outside git, one `kubectl delete` or one rebuild from coming back.

`inClusterClients: [{namespace, port, protocol?, name?}]` closes that. Each entry
renders ONE least-privilege ingress CiliumNetworkPolicy: this service's
endpointSelector, `fromEndpoints` matching ONLY `k8s:io.kubernetes.pod.namespace`,
`toPorts` carrying ONLY the declared port/protocol — never `fromEntities: all`.
Additive: the namespace default-deny keeps denying everything undeclared (R-NET-02),
and the entry is NOT a dependency edge, so it creates no wave ordering.

Shape notes:
  * selected by NAMESPACE, not pod labels: an upstream controller's labels belong to
    its chart, not to this platform's contract. The cost is explicit — every pod in
    that namespace is admitted on that port, so the field is for platform-controller
    namespaces (flux-system, monitoring), never a shared one. The schema description
    says so.
  * optional `name` (default: the namespace) only names the rendered policy,
    `<service>-allow-<name>-ingress`. That name is operator-facing (kubectl get cnp,
    a Hubble drop), and pinning it lets an allowance that already had to be applied
    live be authored under its EXISTING name, so Flux adopts the live object in place
    instead of creating a near-duplicate and leaving the original unmanaged.
  * one field, not a policy DSL: no arbitrary selectors, entities or CIDRs.

Covered by render.py --selftest (4c): name/namespace/selector/port shape, no
fromEntities widening, default-deny still `ingress: []`, the gateway allow not
displaced, `name` defaulting to the namespace, and nothing rendered when the field is
absent. No golden changes here — no catalog entry uses the field yet.

jakman85andClaude Opus 5 da8a0eac04 test(l0): R-STATE-04 gets a real check — bulk storage provably is not the replicated tier
The gate BLOCKED this branch, correctly, and the block was the interesting part.

Attaching the media library selects R-STATE-04 as a touched requirement ("bulk media storage has
a capacity strategy distinct from the replicated tier"), and R-STATE-04 had NO scaffolded test, so
the coverage REQUIRE stage failed both l0 and l1. There were two ways out. One was to keep
avoiding the token — the existing discipline in catalog/plex.yaml and catalog/qbittorrent.yaml,
which say in as many words that naming the requirement would block the merge. That made sense while
the tier was a stub. It does not make sense in the change that DELIVERS the tier: it would mean
shipping the requirement and claiming nothing. So: the check.

WHAT IT ASSERTS, and why each one is a real failure mode rather than a shape
The `bulk` StorageClass sat as `server: REPLACE-ME` for six roadmap phases, and the only thing
keeping a multi-terabyte library off the 3-replica `longhorn` class was four hand-written comments.
That is the class of failure being closed: a bulk volume on the replicated tier does not fail
loudly — Longhorn accepts the PVC and starts replicating 3x of data three mini-PCs cannot hold.

  (1) DISTINCTNESS — no bulk PV/PVC on any class the repo declares with the Longhorn provisioner
      (derived from platform/longhorn/, so adding a Longhorn class cannot create a blind spot),
      and the class is explicitly EMPTY.
  (2) CAPACITY STRATEGY as arithmetic — a bulk volume at least an order of magnitude above the
      same service's replicated volume. The requirement is about two magnitudes of data; a "bulk"
      volume sized like a config PVC means the tier was named, not applied. The 10x floor is
      CALIBRATED against the real corpus, not guessed: the media library is ~460x its config
      volume and the Nextcloud archive ~13x its 20Gi, so a higher floor would fire on a legitimate
      volume and teach the next reader to weaken the check. My first draft used 100x and did
      exactly that — the corpus caught it.
  (3) PRE-BOUND FROM BOTH ENDS (claimRef + volumeName, agreeing). Guards the most deceptive
      failure available in this tier: a dynamic bulk class hands out a FRESH EMPTY directory, the
      pod mounts, the PVC Binds, everything is green, and the 8 TiB was never attached.
  (4) Retain, always. (5) mountOptions carry `hard` and exactly one nfsvers=4.x, and never `soft`
      — a soft mount hands a server hiccup to the app as a short read, which for a media library
      is silent corruption; and v4 is what keeps the firewall surface at one port.
  (6) ONE EXPORT, AT MOST ONE MOUNT PER WORKLOAD. This is the assertion I most wanted. Splitting
      one export into two subPath mounts looks TIGHTER and breaks link() with EXDEV; Sonarr and
      Radarr then degrade to copy-then-delete, rewriting every import over NFS and destroying the
      seeding copy, surfacing weeks later as "imports are slow and my ratio is gone". No reviewer
      sees that in a diff.
  (7) READ-ONLY COUPLING — nfs.readOnly, the volumeMount flag and ReadOnlyMany must agree, so
      dropping one still leaves the others; and every bulk mode is a `...Many`.
  (8) The server is a BARE cluster-vars token, that knob has a base default, and EVERY overlay
      supplies it — the seam that lets one authored definition serve two clusters that reach this
      host by different addresses.
  (9) LOAD-BEARING and NON-VACUOUS. Wired unconditionally into ci/l0.sh as Stage 3e for the same
      reason as 3c/3d: Stage 3b scopes to touched requirements, and the path map keys NEITHER
      apps/* NOR platform/longhorn/* to this requirement — so the change most likely to break
      this could attribute nothing and be gated by nothing. An EMPTY bulk corpus FAILS rather
      than passing trivially, and a floor on the assertion count keeps a pass from degenerating.

It reads the COMMITTED apps/ goldens rather than calling the renderer. Asking the renderer would
only prove it agrees with itself; the goldens are what Flux reconciles, and render==golden is
already its own gate stage.

PERTURBED, because a check that has never failed is not evidence. Each of these was applied to the
real tree and each fired with the intended message: bulk PVC moved onto `longhorn`; Retain -> Delete;
`hard` -> `soft`; the token replaced by the literal 192.168.1.9; sonarr's single mount split into
two subPath mounts (assertion 6); and the prod overlay's knob deleted.

Also hardens render.py: `size` is structurally required of a bulk entry (a PV with no capacity is
rejected by the API server) but the JSON Schema only enforces `export`, so omitting it raised a bare
KeyError three frames down. It now raises a sentence naming the service, the volume and the remedy.
Found by the same perturbation pass.

Coverage: 48/51 -> 49/51 (96.1%), 2 gaps, 0 safety-critical.
BASE_REF=main make -C ci gate -> MERGE GATE: PASS.

jakman85andClaude Opus 5 cec550045b feat(storage): the bulk tier becomes real — static NFS PVs, authored once per environment
The `bulk` class has existed since Phase 0 as a deliberate stub: the StorageClass named an NFS
CSI driver that is not installed and a server/share of REPLACE-ME, so plex, sonarr, radarr and
qbittorrent all carry a comment saying "attach the library once OQ-2 is resolved". This is that
resolution — for the case that actually exists here, which is NOT the case the stub anticipated.

The stub assumed DYNAMIC provisioning: ask a CSI driver for a bulk volume and get a fresh empty
subdirectory. That is the wrong shape for this platform's bulk data. The media library is 8.33 TiB
that already exists, on ZFS datasets on the Proxmox host, with live non-k3s consumers. Nothing
needs provisioning; existing datasets need ATTACHING. So a bulk storage entry now renders a
STATIC, pre-bound NFS PersistentVolume plus its PVC, and needs no CSI driver at all (the in-tree
NFS volume source is not deprecated and has no CSI migration).

Schema 1.4.0 adds, on a storage entry:
  export     absolute NFS export path; REQUIRED when class is bulk, FORBIDDEN otherwise (an `if`
             in the schema, so a bulk entry cannot be authored without saying what it attaches).
  subPath    mount a subtree instead of the volume root — any class.
  readOnly   any class; on bulk it also sets the PV's nfs.readOnly, so the mount really is `ro`.

The SERVER is deliberately NOT a schema field. It is the `${BULK_NFS_SERVER}` cluster-vars knob,
because dev and prod reach the SAME storage host by different addresses and R-ENV-02 says the
service definition is authored once. A ServiceDefinition says WHICH dataset; the overlay says
where the host is.

Three decisions worth the reader's time, argued in full in the r_bulk_pvs docstring:

  * PV/PVC, not an inline `nfs:` pod volume. Inline is fewer objects and would work. It cannot
    express `persistentVolumeReclaimPolicy: Retain`, which is the one property most worth having
    in git for 8.33 TiB of data with consumers outside this cluster; it puts read-only enforcement
    one Deployment edit away from silent removal; and it is invisible to `kubectl get pv,pvc`,
    which is where an operator looks for attached external storage.
  * storageClassName: "" on both ends, NOT the `bulk` StorageClass. Explicitly empty is the
    canonical marker for a statically provisioned volume. It also sidesteps a trap: a
    StorageClass's `provisioner` is IMMUTABLE, so re-pointing the deployed `bulk` stub would make
    Flux fail on that object forever.
  * Access mode is always `…Many` and follows the read/write posture — ReadOnlyMany for a reader,
    ReadWriteMany for a writer. One export is consumed by several namespaces AND several nodes at
    once, which is exactly what ReadWriteOnce cannot express; which `Many` it is then makes the
    intent legible in `kubectl get pv`.

mountOptions are a platform decision held in the renderer rather than a per-service field:
nfsvers=4.1,hard,noatime,timeo=600,retrans=2. NFSv4 carries mount and lock in-protocol, so the
only port that must be reachable is tcp/2049 — no rpcbind/111, mountd or statd. That is a
firewall decision as much as a storage one. `hard` over `soft` because a soft mount converts a
server hiccup into a short read handed to the application.

The contract doc records the trap that will otherwise be discovered in production: fsGroup is a
NO-OP on an NFS volume (the in-tree plugin does no ownership management), so a writable bulk mount
requires the container's own uid/gid to suit the export's ownership. A mount that succeeds and
then cannot write is this tier's characteristic failure.

Every pre-existing golden renders byte-identical: the new keys are emitted only when declared, and
`readOnly` defaults to False. render-golden: 10/10. selftest: PASS.

jakman85andClaude Opus 5 e7c4a95c2d feat(backup): the four backup credentials become TWO objects each, one per environment
The four backup-credential SOPS Secrets are SHARED BASE manifests: platform/ and apps/ are
rendered by the same Flux tiers on both clusters, and the ONLY per-environment difference in
this repo is cluster-vars substitution (R-ENV-02). So writing the R2 token into all four
(0a6a862) did not "give prod credentials" — it REPLACED DEV'S. Merging that as-is would have
handed dev's Velero and all three dev CNPG Clusters an R2 key id to sign MinIO requests with:
403 on every WAL segment, and archive_mode=on turns that into a disk-full clock on the pgdata
PVC, not a degraded backup. Dev's PROVEN DR restore (R-STATE-03) is the thing that would have
broken.

This commit splits the material. Each credential is now TWO Secret objects, both applied to
BOTH clusters, differing only in name suffix:

    dev  -> velero-cloud-credentials              keycloak/nextcloud/semaphore-db-backup-credentials
    prod -> velero-cloud-credentials-prod         ...-db-backup-credentials-prod

The consumer picks one by name; that wiring is the NEXT commit, so this one changes no
rendered reference and is a no-op for both live clusters.

WHY DEV KEEPS THE UNSUFFIXED NAME. Dev is live. Renaming its Secret would change
`s3Credentials.accessKeyId.name` on three running CNPG Clusters — which projects into the
instance pods' environment and therefore ROLLS keycloak-db, nextcloud-db and semaphore-db —
and would roll the velero Deployment, all to rename an object whose contents do not change.
This repo already makes exactly this call for dev's live identifiers (EXTERNALDNS_TXT_OWNER_ID
"default", VELERO_BACKUP_PREFIX ""): the live cluster keeps the name it is running, and the
NEW environment takes the new one. The asymmetry is deliberate and documented at each
kustomization.

WHERE THE MATERIAL CAME FROM. Neither side is invented:
  - the four unsuffixed files are restored byte-for-byte from `main` (the MinIO material as
    it stood before 0a6a862), so dev's Secrets are IDENTICAL to what dev is running;
  - the four `-prod` files carry the R2 token from 0a6a862 (already on this branch as
    9739e9b), re-encrypted only because metadata.name changed.

RE-ENCRYPTION, AND WHY A COPY+SED IS NOT ENOUGH. `.sops.yaml` sets
`encrypted_regex: ^(data|stringData)$`, so metadata.name stays cleartext — but SOPS MACs the
WHOLE document (there is no `mac_only_encrypted` here), so editing that cleartext line
invalidates the MAC and `sops -d` then refuses the file. The `-prod` files were therefore
produced inside the dev toolbox (infra/devcontainer, which has sops 3.9.4 and the age key
mounted) by decrypt -> rename -> re-encrypt, with the plaintext never leaving a container
tmpfile. Note for the next person: `sops -e --output NEW OLD` matches creation rules against
the INPUT path, so encrypting a tmpfile into a repo path needs `--filename-override NEW` or
it dies with "no matching creation rules found".

Verified: all eight files `sops -d` cleanly; the four dev files hash to dev's material and the
four prod files to R2's, and the two sets differ. `.sops.yaml` needed no new rule — the
existing `(platform|apps|catalog)/.*(secret|sops)\.ya?ml$` rule already matches
`*-prod.sops.yaml`, so the new files encrypt to the same age recipient.

apps/wave-0/kustomization.yaml is GENERATED, so render.py learns the `-prod` sidecar rather
than the golden being hand-edited: `<db>-backup-credentials-prod.sops.yaml` now places into
the DB's wave alongside its unsuffixed twin (both must exist before the Cluster that names
one), and the selftest asserts it.

jakman85andClaude Opus 5 c8c1d2935d feat(dns): per-environment BASE_DOMAIN — prod moves to its own subdomain
gate / gate (push) Has been cancelled
gate / conformance (push) Has been cancelled
INCIDENT FIX. Prod's external-dns DELETED EVERY ONE OF DEV'S PUBLIC DNS RECORDS. Both
clusters ran policy: sync against the SAME Cloudflare zone with the SAME implicit
txtOwnerId (`default`), so prod believed it owned dev's records, found no matching sources,
and removed them plus their TXT registry entries. Dev recovered ~30s after prod was scaled
to 0; verified restored against Cloudflare directly (my first check went through a pfSense
override and falsely showed healthy — local resolvers are not evidence about public DNS).

THE MISS WAS MINE, and it was a failure of imagination in how I briefed every agent. I put
"never touch dev" in brief after brief and enforced it — separate kubeconfigs, verified
--limit, sha-checked dev's kubeconfig before and after. Every one of those guards held. NONE
of them covered SHARED EXTERNAL RESOURCES. Prod reconciling its OWN correctly-authored
manifests reached across a third party and destroyed dev's state. Cluster-to-cluster
isolation was verified; the dependency that mattered was cluster-to-Cloudflare.

Operator's architecture: dev -> *.dev.home.keithjackson.dev, prod ->
*.prod.home.keithjackson.dev, apex CNAME <svc>.home -> <svc>.prod.home.

PHASE 1 ONLY (this commit): prod moves to its own subdomain. DEV IS NOT MIGRATED and its
effective hostname stays home.keithjackson.dev, so dev renders byte-identically and nothing
live moves. That alone ends the collision and unblocks prod. Phase 2 (dev -> dev.home. +
apex CNAMEs) is deferred to when the operator is present: it relocates Keycloak's issuer and
12 clients' redirect URIs, forces a rolling k3s restart and kubectl SSO re-issue for every
user, and moves gitea.home. — which is BOTH the GitOps source and the current push target.

BASE_DOMAIN WAS A DEAD KNOB — it existed in cluster-vars but the status report flagged it as
referenced by nothing, because hostnames were hardcoded throughout. Now real: 141 refs.
Searched the AUTHORITATIVE reconciled set by resolving each Flux spec.path transitively via
conformance/lib/status.py — the same resolver the L0 gate uses, so "what Flux reconciles"
has one definition. 185 occurrences across 47 files in 154 reconciled files. Tokenized:
Gateway listeners, the wildcard Certificate, coredns-custom, external-dns, Keycloak
instance/realm (26 redirect URIs), oauth2-proxy, Grafana OIDC, all HTTPRoutes, Homepage's 15
links, 30 runbook_urls, unifi cloud-init, render.py's ZONE constant (which drove
--oidc-issuer-url/--cookie-domain/--whitelist-domain on every forward-auth sidecar) and 11
catalog/ ServiceDefinitions re-rendered canonically. Left alone: 43 comment/prose
occurrences and non-reconciled paths.

TWO THAT CANNOT BE TOKENIZED, flagged not forced:
  - headlamp's OIDC URLs live inside a SOPS-encrypted Secret; re-encrypting rewrites the MAC
    over every value and the OFFLINE harness cannot verify it (kustomize does not decrypt),
    so an error would break live-dev SSO with no pre-flight proof. Prod needs its own copy
    anyway — client secrets are realm-scoped.
  - kube-apiserver --oidc-issuer-url is a k3s SERVER FLAG, not a manifest, so Flux can never
    reach it. Done on the inventory seam instead (k3s_base_domain -> k3s_oidc_issuer_url,
    overridden in group_vars/k3s_prod). Verified per host: dev keeps the default, prod gets
    prod.home.

EXTERNAL-DNS OWNER, the actual incident cause: txtOwnerId is now explicit per environment —
dev renders exactly `default` (the chart default it was already using, so its existing
records stay recognised) and prod gets `prod`. The BASE default is a NON-COLLIDING SENTINEL,
deliberately not `default`, so a future environment that forgets the knob owns nothing and
can delete nothing rather than silently inheriting dev's identity.

I OVERRODE ONE AGENT DECISION against our own prior finding: it narrowed prod's
domainFilters to prod.home.keithjackson.dev as defence in depth. FINDING F-DNS1
(DECISIONS-LOG 2026-08-17) already proved a subdomain filter DROPS THE PARENT ZONE —
ExternalDNS generates the record then skips it with "no hosted zone matching record DNS
Name". Prod would have published NOTHING. Set to the ZONE (keithjackson.dev) like dev.
Isolation comes from the subdomain split plus txtOwnerId, which is what the incident
actually needed and what a domain filter cannot provide.

DEV PROVEN UNCHANGED: 11 of 12 substituting paths byte-identical; the 12th differs by
exactly one line, `+ txtOwnerId: default` — the value dev was already using implicitly.
POSITIVE CONTROLS confirm the harness is not blind: perturbing BASE_DOMAIN moves 10 of 12
hashes (the 2 that don't provably contain no hostname), perturbing the owner id moves
exactly 1. Prod's rendered output has ZERO home.keithjackson.dev references outside prod.,
and its cert renders *.prod.home.keithjackson.dev — no overlap with dev's.

L0 substitution assertions 106 -> 254; BASE_DOMAIN is no longer flagged dead. Gate PASS.

PROD REMAINS SUSPENDED (platform + 10 downstream tiers) pending review; nothing applied.

jakman85andClaude Opus 5 3484955903 fix(sso): gitea + nextcloud OIDC bootstrap was DEAD CODE — envsubst ate the guard
Both ServiceDefinitions guarded their Keycloak OIDC registration with an UNESCAPED
braced expansion:

    if [ -z "${GITEA_OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET:-}" ]; then      # gitea
    if [ -z "${NEXTCLOUD_OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET:-}" ]; then  # nextcloud, then exit 0

apps-wave-0/1 both declare postBuild.substituteFrom: cluster-vars, and neither name is a
cluster-vars key — so Flux's envsubst substituted them away AT RECONCILE TIME, long
before the container ever ran. Verified in the LIVE cluster: the deployed Deployments
literally contain

    if [ -z "" ]; then

which is always true. The entire OIDC registration block has been skipped on EVERY boot
of both apps.

WHY NOBODY NOTICED: both apps DO have the provider registered — `gitea admin auth list`
shows keycloak/OAuth2/true and `occ user_oidc:provider` shows the keycloak provider.
Those live in each app's own database, persisted from an earlier successful registration.
SSO works today and DECISIONS-LOG is not wrong. But the idempotent re-registration is
dead, so any PVC rebuild, DB restore, or fresh cluster build comes up with NO OIDC and
only the break-glass local admin. A PROD BUILD FROM THIS REPO WOULD SILENTLY HAVE NO SSO
on gitea or nextcloud.

The irony: the surrounding code was hardened twice — see its own comments about a "silent
first-boot RACE", the verify-then-retry loops, the marker files. All of that hardening was
unreachable, because the guard above it always evaluated true.

Not a regression from the recent R-ENV-02 tokenization — introduced 2026-08-27 (8738871).

FIXED AT THE RIGHT SEAM: apps/wave-0/gitea.yaml and apps/wave-1/nextcloud.yaml are
RENDER-GENERATED, so the fix is in catalog/*.yaml and the goldens are regenerated.
Escaped to $${...}, the convention documented in clusters/base/apps-vms.yaml. Post-envsubst
the container now receives the intended `${VAR:-}` instead of `""`.

STRICT MODE WOULD NEVER HAVE CAUGHT THIS. Flux deliberately exempts default-providing
operators (-, :-, +, :+, =, :=, ?, :?) from StrictPostBuildSubstitutions, because they
"intentionally handle the unset case". So a targeted check was required.

MADE UN-REPEATABLE IN THE RENDERER: catalog/render.py gains a substitution-safety section
wired into emit(), so every render path refuses to emit a manifest containing a braced
expansion that is not exactly ${KNOWN_KEY} for a key read LIVE from cluster-vars (no
hardcoded copy to drift; unreadable => empty set => fail-closed). Dollar-runs are counted
properly ($$ is a literal $ to envsubst, so odd runs are flagged and even runs are not),
and indexed forms get their own hard-error message. Nine new --selftest assertions,
including the exact regression. Proven to bite: rendering the pre-fix catalog files from
HEAD now exits 1 with the precise diagnosis.

Sweep: the complete substituted surface was enumerated from every Kustomization's path.
catalog/ contains exactly TWO braced expansions and both were these bugs; every other
braced expansion on a substituted path is a declared cluster-vars key (zero typos, zero
undeclared names); existing $${UOS_URL} escapes verified intact.

Verified: --selftest PASS; canonical render is byte-identical to the committed apps/ for
all 10 onboarded services; the three L1 render checks pass.

NEXT RECONCILE: both pod templates change, so gitea (wave 0) and nextcloud (wave 1) roll —
strategy: Recreate on RWO Longhorn PVCs, so expect a brief single-pod outage each. The
OIDC block then executes for the first time in these apps' deployed lifetime. Both paths
are idempotent (gitea takes auth update-oauth on the existing id; nextcloud's
user_oidc:provider is create-or-update), so the expected result is a no-op re-write plus
the verify loop logging success. If the SOPS client secret ever diverged from Keycloak's,
this is when it gets corrected instead of silently left stale. Tail both pods after merge.

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 72d4720d58 feat(auth): gate pihole UI with per-app oauth2-proxy sidecar (canary)
Close the un-gated-UI security finding for forward-auth apps (R-IDP-02) by
rendering the Option-B per-app oauth2-proxy reverse-proxy sidecar that crafty
proves working. catalog/render.py now emits, for any forward-auth app with an
exposed UI: the oauth2-proxy sidecar (upstream http://127.0.0.1:<uiport>,
:4180, --allowed-group per auth.group), an authproxy :4180 Service port, an
HTTPRoute backendRef -> :4180, and a gateway-ingress CiliumNetworkPolicy that
allows the Gateway to reach ONLY :4180 (fail-closed: the bare UI is never
served un-authenticated). oidc/native/none apps render byte-identical.

This is the CANARY: only pihole's golden carries the sidecar and is verified
fail-closed in-cluster first. jackett/qbittorrent/radarr/sonarr are deferred to
the rollout commit (temporarily listed in ci/render-golden.sh) so their UIs
keep serving exactly as today until their clients+secrets land.

- keycloak: confidential pihole client (realm-import + realm-clients mirror),
  provisioned live via kcadm (groups membership mapper, bare names).
- secret: SOPS/age pihole-oauth2-proxy-credentials (client-id/secret/cookie),
  wired into apps/wave-0 via the renderer's new sidecar-creds wave rule.
- L1 render goldens regenerated for the sidecar (forward-auth fixtures).

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 68690e5019 fix(net): allow SSO apps egress to keycloak backend (Cilium 1.20 CVE-2025-30162)
App SSO broke cluster-wide after the Cilium 1.16.5->1.20.1 upgrade: the CVE-2025-30162 fix (in
>=1.16.8/1.17.2) makes the shared Gateway's L7 proxy re-evaluate a pod's egress policy against
Keycloak's REAL backend cluster identity (enforce_policy_on_l7lb) when it hairpins to keycloak.home.
'toEntities: world' matches the Gateway VIP at L3/L4 but not the resolved keycloak identity at L7, so
OIDC discovery/token 403'd ('Access denied') for every app with a NetworkPolicy (gitea/nextcloud/
semaphore/headlamp/crafty...); Grafana survived only because monitoring has no NetworkPolicy.

Fix: explicit toEndpoints egress allow to the keycloak backend for SSO apps.
- catalog/render.py: emit it for auth.mode in {oidc,forward-auth}; re-rendered 8 app goldens.
- platform/headlamp + platform/crafty: hand-written policies get the same allow.
Split-horizon design unchanged. Verified live: headlamp-ns -> keycloak discovery 403 -> 200.

toolchain bump (below).

Verified facts applied: k3s v1.36.4+k3s1, Debian 13 trixie,
Cilium 1.20.1 / Gateway API v1.6.1, Longhorn 1.12.1, node RAM 24 GiB,
dedicated virtio2 SSD etcd disk per node, Velero chart 12.x / v1.18,
Grafana 13.2.0.

- Version strings across infra/ and platform/ READMEs + comments
- kubectl toolchain 1.31.4 -> 1.36.4 (devcontainer/ci/conformance
  versions.env; 1.31 vs a 1.36 cluster exceeded the +-1 skew)
- Retired-single-apps-Kustomization refs -> apps-wave-0/1/2 + apps-vms
  with per-wave SOPS decryption (flux/clusters docs + bootstrap.sh)

Migrate image.toolkit.fluxcd.io/v1beta2 -> /v1 for ImageRepository,
ImagePolicy, and ImageUpdateAutomation ahead of the Flux v2.7+ upgrade
(cluster-upgrade-plan §3.2). Flux v2.4 (current) already serves /v1, so
migrating the manifests now is a safe no-op at runtime.

- catalog/render.py: r_image_automation emits v1 for ImageRepository/ImagePolicy
- platform/image-automation/{image-update-automation,per-service/pihole.example}
- conformance L3 hands-off-update chainsaw applies v1 CRs
- conformance L1 goldens re-rendered to match (apiVersion-only diff)

No spec-field changes required: all spec fields used (image, interval,
imageRepositoryRef, filterTags.pattern/extract, policy.semver.range,
sourceRef, git.*, update.strategy/path) are unchanged in v1; the v1
messageTemplate already uses .Changed (not the removed .Updated).
apps/ golden unaffected (canonical render uses --no-image-automation).

- Two daily Schedules: `daily` backs up the whole cluster's resources+PVC data
  (defaultVolumesToFsBackup opt-out) EXCEPT monitoring+unifi; `daily-resources-only`
  captures monitoring+unifi RESOURCES only (Prometheus TSDB, Loki 72h logs, and the

- velero-cloud-credentials SOPS Secret (cloud INI key, ns velero).
- Own non-gating Flux tier clusters/base/backup.yaml (dependsOn platform-config,
  wait:false) + clusters/dev SOPS decryption patch — mirrors headlamp.

CNPG native Barman PITR (R-IDP-05 / R-STATE-03):
- keycloak-db, nextcloud-db, semaphore-db gain spec.backup.barmanObjectStore
  (s3://cnpg/<cluster>, endpointURL MinIO, gzip WAL+data, 30d retention) + a daily
  ScheduledBackup (6-field cron, immediate) each.
- Per-namespace scoped-key SOPS Secrets (<db>-backup-credentials), same-ns only.
- render.py: emit-waves now recognizes <svc>-db-backup-credentials.sops.yaml as a
  DB-wave sidecar (+ self-test); wave-0 kustomization regenerated.

Creds mirror platform/backup/minio-credentials.sops.yaml (scoped key k3s-backup),

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 36a1a4e1f9 refactor(apps): split monolithic apps Kustomization into dependency waves
Replaces the single `apps` Flux Kustomization with dependency-ordered waves
(apps-wave-0..2) so a crashlooping workload isolates to its wave + downstream
instead of stalling the entire app tier. Parallel within a wave, ordered across.

- catalog/render.py: compute waves by longest dependency-path depth over the
  ServiceDefinition `dependencies:` edges (a `<svc>-db` is a leaf, so its
  consumer lands strictly higher — the "DB below consumer" rule falls out of
  longest-path, no special case). `--emit-waves` generates the per-wave
  kustomizations + Flux CRs; `--wave-layout` places renders into the right dir.
  wave 0: pihole gitea jackett plex qbittorrent nextcloud-db semaphore-db
  wave 1: sonarr radarr nextcloud semaphore gitea-actions
  wave 2: seerr
- apps/*.yaml -> apps/wave-{0,1,2}/ (byte-identical moves; SOPS files intact).
- clusters/base: apps.yaml removed; apps-wave-{0,1,2}.yaml added (dependsOn
  chain: platform-config -> wave-0 -> wave-1 -> wave-2, prune+wait each).
- clusters/dev: one SOPS decryption patch per wave (load-bearing).
- DESIGN-waves.md: wave table, topology, cutover runbook.

Cutover: preceded by disabling prune on `apps` (1bfb0db) so removing that
object here does not GC its resources; the wave Kustomizations SSA-adopt the
byte-identical manifests in place (no restart, no PVC churn).

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 28498f1099 fix(apps): semaphore fsGroup — schema 1.3.0 podSecurityContext for non-root PVC write
The semaphoreui/semaphore image runs as non-root UID 1001 / GID 0 and writes its
generated config.json into the config dir on boot. A mounted Longhorn PVC is
root:root, so UID 1001 got "permission denied" and the pod crash-looped.

First-class the fix into the render contract (same mechanism the retired
gitea-bootstrap-patch was replaced by): schema 1.3.0 adds an optional pod-level
`podSecurityContext`, emitted verbatim onto spec.template.spec.securityContext by
render.py. Absent => every other app renders byte-identical (verified). semaphore
declares fsGroup=1001 (kubelet group-owns the PVC + adds the supplemental group so
UID 1001 can write) plus runAsUser/runAsGroup/runAsNonRoot pinning the image identity.

render.py selftest extended (verbatim render + absence). L0 (schema+kyverno 17/17),
L1 3/3, lint all green.

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 c8dd4f3f9d feat(catalog): add SD env/envFrom/lifecycle; retire gitea bootstrap patch
Extend the ServiceDefinition contract with optional per-container `env`,
`envFrom`, and `lifecycle` fields (k8s EnvVar / EnvFromSource / Lifecycle
shapes) so headless-install / DB-backed apps configure themselves through
the SD instead of a supplementary kustomize patch.

- schema: bump 1.1.0 -> 1.2.0; add optional env/envFrom/lifecycle to the
  container kind (literal + secretKeyRef/configMapKeyRef; secretRef/
  configMapRef; postStart/preStop exec via $defs/execHandler). Existing
  fields unchanged; all fields optional -> absent renders byte-identical.
- render.py: emit env/envFrom/lifecycle verbatim onto the Deployment app
  container when present; --selftest coverage for the new fields.
- catalog/gitea.yaml: fold the headless-install env (INSTALL_LOCK, fixed
  SECRET_KEY via secretKeyRef, DOMAIN/ROOT_URL, actions, break-glass admin
  creds) + the idempotent postStart break-glass admin bootstrap inline.
- apps/gitea.yaml: re-rendered with env/lifecycle inline (effective pod
  spec provably equivalent to base+patch).
- DELETE apps/gitea-bootstrap-patch.yaml + drop it from apps/kustomization
  patches. gitea-bootstrap-secret.sops.yaml kept (still sourced by the env).

Proves the renderer feature by retiring the known TODO; unblocks env + DB
onboarding for nextcloud/semaphore/unifi/minecraft. All other rendered apps
byte-identical. Gates: selftest PASS, l0 17/17 + schema, l1 goldens, lint.

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 b871877c1b fix(render): namespace-pin east-west selectors so declared deps actually connect
Follow-up to the reciprocal-ingress fix: in-cluster verification (Hubble) revealed
the east-west path was STILL fully blocked — and that the pre-existing EGRESS half
was also broken, contrary to the original diagnosis. Root cause: a CiliumNetworkPolicy
`toEndpoints`/`fromEndpoints` selector is scoped to the POLICY's OWN namespace unless
it carries the reserved `k8s:io.kubernetes.pod.namespace` label. Every service lives
in its own namespace (== its name) and every dependency crosses a namespace boundary,
so an app-label-only peer selector matched nothing and Cilium silently denied the flow
(Hubble: sonarr->qbittorrent = "EGRESS DENIED ... Policy denied DROPPED").

Pin the peer namespace on BOTH halves — egress toEndpoints (destination ns == dep.to)
and the reciprocal ingress fromEndpoints (source ns == source name). This is a strict
TIGHTENING (more precise, still L3/L4), not a weakening. Verified end-to-end in-cluster:
sonarr->qbittorrent:8080, sonarr->jackett:9117, seerr->{sonarr:8989,radarr:7878,
plex:32400} now CONNECT (were DROPPED); undeclared sonarr->plex:32400 and
seerr->qbittorrent:8080 stay BLOCKED (default-deny holds).

Selftest + L0 (17/17) + L1 (3/3, goldens byte-identical) + lint all pass. NOTE: this
necessarily touches the egress toEndpoints selector, which the task scoped as
ingress-only; the premise that egress already worked was empirically false.

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 14beb85b65 fix(render): emit reciprocal ingress-allow for declared dependencies (R-NET-02)
A `dependencies` edge is declared ONCE on the SOURCE, but with the default-deny-
BOTH-directions baseline (docs/03 R-NET-01/02) it needs TWO matching halves: the
source egress-allow AND the destination ingress-allow. render.py emitted only the
egress half, so every declared east-west dependency was silently dropped by the
destination's default-deny ingress — verified in-cluster: sonarr->qbittorrent:8080,
sonarr->jackett:9117 and seerr->sonarr:8989 were all BLOCKED.

Add a cross-service reverse-dependency pass (build_reverse_map) and render the
reciprocal ingress half (r_reverse_dependency_policies): for each source that
declares a dependency on X, X gains an additive ingress-allow CiliumNetworkPolicy
`X-allow-<source>-<port>` whose fromEndpoints matches the source identity, mirroring
the egress half's L3/L4 granularity. Deterministic (sorted), additive (default-deny
ingress stays []), egress side unchanged. A lone render with no cross-catalog context
renders no reciprocal ingress, so the L1 render goldens are byte-identical.

New ingress CNPs: qbittorrent<-{sonarr,radarr}:8080, jackett<-{sonarr,radarr}:9117,
sonarr<-seerr:8989, radarr<-seerr:7878, plex<-seerr:32400. Selftest + L0 (17/17) +

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 d32b5c4ec0 fix(renderer): Recreate strategy for Deployments mounting RWO PVCs
Any single-replica app with a `storage:` entry mounts a ReadWriteOnce Longhorn
PVC. The default RollingUpdate strategy starts the new pod before terminating the
old one, but the old pod still holds the RWO volume -> the new pod hangs in
ContainerCreating and the rollout deadlocks (observed on gitea's update). Emit
spec.strategy.type=Recreate whenever storage is present so the old pod releases
the PVC first. Non-storage apps (and VMs) keep the default (no strategy emitted).

Re-rendered apps: gitea, pihole, sonarr, radarr, plex, qbittorrent, jackett now
carry strategy: Recreate. Updated the egress-class L1 render goldens (storage
fixture) accordingly; all L1 render checks pass.

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 73c4475d34 fix(gitea): mount PVC at /data + headless-install bootstrap (Phase 6)
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).

jakman85 7e8ae472c9 fix(net): renderer emits world/internet egress allow per egress class + fix jackett/plex tags
Root cause the media stack surfaced: the default-deny baseline is DNS-only egress (correct for
R-NET-01 east-west), but the egress CLASS (internet/vpn) had no policy ALLOWING north-south
egress — so qbittorrent/sonarr/radarr couldn't reach the internet at all (VPN downloaders
broken). Add an additive per-app CiliumNetworkPolicy '<app>-allow-internet-egress' with
toEntities:[world] (non-cluster); the egress-class steering + kill-switch (ADR-0015) govern the
PATH (internet=WAN, vpn=tun0). East-west stays denied except declared dependencies; R-NET-01
baseline unchanged. Re-rendered all apps + regenerated L1 goldens. Also fixed jackett + plex
image tags (bad pins -> :latest; Renovate/update policy pins later).

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 c13ef69e71 feat(net): renderer emits gateway-ingress allow for exposed services (R-NET-01/02)
Exposed apps got a default-deny NetworkPolicy with ingress: [] (deny all), so the
Cilium Gateway (Envoy, reserved identity `ingress`) could not reach the backend — an
Accepted HTTPRoute was still unreachable. render.py now emits an ADDITIVE, least-
privilege CiliumNetworkPolicy for any ServiceDefinition that renders an HTTPRoute:

  ingress:
    - fromEntities: [ingress]        # the shared Cilium Gateway/Envoy proxy identity
      toPorts: [<exposed service port(s)> TCP]

Verified against the live cluster (Cilium 1.16.5): with default-deny in place, Hubble
shows the Gateway proxy reaching pihole as source identity `(ingress)` and the flow
`Policy denied DROPPED` on :80 — so `fromEntities: [ingress]` is exactly the source the
Gateway uses, scoped to the service targetPort. Default-deny stays intact (ingress: []
unchanged); the allow only opens the north-south path (docs/09), east-west stays denied.

- render.py: add r_gateway_ingress_policy(); emit it after dependency policies; selftest
  asserts the allow is additive (default-deny ingress stays []), least-privilege (only the
  exposed port, only the ingress identity), and absent for non-exposed services.
- L1 goldens updated for the two exposed fixtures (container-workload, egress-class);
  default-deny-baseline golden unchanged (no exposure). --selftest + run.sh --layer l1 green.
- apps/pihole.yaml re-rendered (--no-image-automation) to carry the allow.

jakman85 e843db2601 feat(apps): onboard pihole via renderer + --no-image-automation flag (WS-APPS golden path)
First app onboarded through catalog/render.py -> apps/. Added --no-image-automation so apps
deploy before the Flux image controllers exist (L1 goldens keep the default, unchanged).
KNOWN GAP surfaced: exposed apps get default-deny (ingress: []) with no gateway-ingress allow,
so the HTTPRoute path is blocked — renderer/WS-NET follow-up to allow Cilium gateway ingress
to services with an exposure/HTTPRoute.

jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 6b2c04ed5c Add ServiceDefinition renderer (T-0.3, R-GITOPS-02)
catalog/render.py compiles a ServiceDefinition into the manifest set defined by
schemas/renderer-contract.md: Namespace + default-deny baseline (R-NET-01),
Deployment/Service or KubeVirt VM + CDI DataVolume (R-PLAT-02/03), PVCs (R-STATE),
per-dependency CiliumNetworkPolicy allows (R-NET-02), egress-class steering label
(R-NET-05), HTTPRoutes on the shared Gateway (R-TLS/R-DNS), ServiceMonitor + SLI
alerts (R-OBS-01), Flux image-automation (R-UPD), auth-mode/backup hints (R-IDP).

Deterministic (golden-diffable) with a built-in --selftest; single dependency
(PyYAML) so the conformance harness stays stdlib-only. Documents the mechanism
choice in catalog/README.md and the script header.
