sha256:14a42ba8281ecd98005f5d99ecda4fb729104c783b01584097c32e104ced1bb2, the digest the

`claude --print --output-format json` reports its own failures (API error, usage limit,
error_max_turns) as the result envelope on stdout and leaves stderr empty, so ask_pm()'s
stderr-only message logged "claude exited 1: " with nothing after it, twice on 2026-10-31.
describe_cli_failure() now logs the envelope's diagnostic fields plus stdout/stderr tails,
redacted (sk-ant-, Bearer/token, URL userinfo). PM_DECISION_MAX_TURNS (default 1, unchanged)
makes the max-turns remedy a ConfigMap change if the envelope turns out to say error_max_turns.

The run-383 worker image (df36d9b, pinned in #96) bakes imagePullSecrets: pm-agent-registry,
which admission requires, and the dispatcher's dry-run triage of #97 was read and approved.
PM_REQUIRE_LABEL=agent and the worker caps are unchanged. The dry-run status text in the
configmap comments, the README and the plan's follow-up 3 is updated to match.
Pre-flight (read-only, k3s-prod): pm-agent-job-shape Ready+Enforce; SA/Role/RoleBinding
present and can-i create jobs = yes; pm-agent-registry and pm-agent-credentials exist; both
egress CNPs Valid.

c4eba5b (run 340) bakes a worker template without imagePullSecrets, so the new admission rule
refuses worker Jobs. df36d9b is agent-runner:main == :sha-ddd04d460ef6 (measured on the registry),
and its /etc/pm-agent/worker-job-template.yaml carries imagePullSecrets: pm-agent-registry (read
from the published layer).
Renovate found df36d9b but holds it under "Awaiting Schedule" on dashboard #91: the operator's
dispatch (run 385) was a real run at 12:14 New York, outside the 03:00-06:00 window. The
renovate-digest markers are unchanged, so later bumps remain Renovate's.

pihole/pihole (no tag) -> 2026.10.0 sha256:d3413471...
lscr.io/linuxserver/jackett:latest -> v0.24.2865-ls7 sha256:4fcf3cc2...
plexinc/pms-docker:latest -> 1.43.4.10903-e5521bd8c sha256:e0ab2739...
Each tag was resolved against its registry and matched the pods' imageID, so the image is
unchanged (the pod template string does change, so Flux rolls the three workloads).
renovate.json5: regex versioning for jackett (-lsN) and plex (build-hex); jackett is looked
up on ghcr.io via overridePackageName, because lscr.io is capped at dockerMaxPages=20 pages
and jackett's 32k tags put the running one at #31,980 (dry run proposed nothing without it);
jackett weekly (13 builds in 12 days); pihole deliberately unheld, year rollover = major.
Stale "publishes only latest" prose fixed in renovate.json5 and three runbooks.

The Keycloak CR has no spec.image, so the operator's RELATED_IMAGE_KEYCLOAK picks the
server image; the three keycloak-k8s-resources release URLs in
platform/keycloak/kustomization.yaml are therefore THE Keycloak version, and Renovate
could not see them (no `# renovate:` marker). They now carry markers under one depName
(one branch, groupName keycloak-operator), with a packageRule: automerge false, labels
needs-review + blast-radius; majors still wait on the dashboard.
The untagged quay.io/keycloak/keycloak in catalog/keycloak.yaml renders
apps/wave-1/keycloak.yaml, which no kustomization lists. It is pinned to the operator's
26.0.6 as documentation, re-rendered, and Renovate is disabled for that image so it
cannot raise PRs against a file nothing deploys. The render is kept (not deleted): it is
the fixture for apps/wave-1/tests/app-slis.test.yaml's keycloak SLI rule tests.
README: an "Upgrading Keycloak" section — an operator bump must be checked against
passkey-reconciler.yaml's 26.0.6 Admin API assumptions.

Operator decision. Both are held at every update type and labelled needs-review:
- quay.io/oauth2-proxy/oauth2-proxy (render.py constant, rendered sidecars, crafty). Since v7.13.0
oauth2-proxy validates refreshed OIDC sessions against the access token, every sidecar uses
--cookie-refresh, and that path is untested against this Keycloak.
- ghcr.io/renovatebot/renovate (and renovatebot/github-action if ever reintroduced). Nothing
re-validates renovate.json5 against the new version before it takes effect.
The validator passes on 44.167.0. Evaluated with Renovate's own packageRules engine: exactly 2 of 29
branch rows change (automerge true -> false, +needs-review); the other 27 are identical.

Audit of the first completed dry runs (353/354) plus a debug-level local reproduction:
- App-image updates edited only the generated apps/wave-*. A ServiceDefinition has no apiVersion,
so the kubernetes manager extracts nothing from catalog/, and every such PR would fail
render-golden (reproduced: GOLDEN DRIFT). New regex managers for catalog source.image and
render.py OAUTH2_PROXY_IMAGE put the source and generated edits in one branch (render-golden
rc 0, reproduced).
- CNPG Cluster imageName was untracked (3 Clusters), while the grant Job was tracked. New manager.
- allowedVersions mirror catalog update.range: this drops gitea 28.x, qbittorrent 20.x, radarr 6,
nextcloud 35 and postgresql 18.
- Never auto-merge: gitea, act_runner, postgresql (blast radius), flux range widening, python
minors. Majors wait for a Dependency Dashboard tick.
- velero plugin RC: semver versioning (v1.14.3-rc.2 -> v1.14.4 now proposed).
- flux docker duplicates disabled (the "Cannot find replaceString" line). Two false comments
corrected.
Local dry run: regex deps 7 -> 20, branches 33 -> 29. The validator passes on 44.167.0.

Run 350 cleared platform init (/user 200, /version 200, /repos 200), then stopped at
GET /api/v1/orgs/Home-Network with Gitea's own 403:
token does not have at least one of required scope(s), required=[read:organization],
token scope=read:package,write:repository,read:user
The workflow's header listed only those three scopes, and the operator minted exactly that.
Renovate's initRepo -> isOrg needs read:organization, and Gitea files /issues and /labels under
the issue scope, which the dashboard and PR labels need: write:issue.
- renovate.yaml: corrects the scope list (read:user, read:organization, write:repository,
write:issue, read:package), with the call each serves. A new preflight step probes them with
GETs, the token passed to curl on stdin, and names a missing scope instead of Renovate's bare
"Authentication failure".
- ci/lint.sh: rejects workflow `uses:` lines that need a Docker daemon (docker://,
renovatebot/github-action, docker/*-action), the class fixed in #84.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
renovatebot/github-action is a wrapper around `docker run`. On this runner a job has no Docker
daemon by decision (decisions/2026-10-29-image-pipeline.md), so every run, including dispatch
run 343, died before Renovate started:
failed to connect to the docker API at unix:///var/run/docker.sock ... no such file or directory
The pinned image ghcr.io/renovatebot/renovate:44.167.0 is now the job container, and a run step
execs renovate-entrypoint.sh. actions/checkout is dropped, since Renovate clones the repo itself.
An optional RENOVATE_GITHUB_COM_TOKEN secret feeds GITHUB_COM_TOKEN.
Local dry run (--platform=local, uid 12021, the step body verbatim): 179 deps extracted, 42
updates, and all 4 own-image digest lookups against the Gitea registry succeed.

Rebased #61 onto the CI image pipeline (#81). This commit makes the remaining in-git
blockers to going live go away:
- deployment.yaml and PM_WORKER_IMAGE pin images run 340's digest (sha256:c4eba5b3...,
tag sha-523cd9118f95 = main), read from the registry. Renovate markers unchanged.
- PM_DRY_RUN=true and PM_REQUIRE_LABEL=agent for the first run. Dry run is required, not
just cautious: the run-340 image's baked worker template predates imagePullSecrets, so
admission would deny its Jobs until CI re-publishes after this merge and Renovate bumps.
- Token scopes: Gitea 1.24.3 scopes GET /api/v1/user (the dispatcher's first call) under
read:user. The documented list was missing it. Now read:user, write:repository,
write:issue, read:package everywhere.
- Org-package read documented as a team (Packages=Read, no repos), not just a scope.
- sops is toolbox-only; the .examples say so and give the in-place edit.
- runbook: key-name check no longer emits Secret values before the pipe.

The registry had two blockers. #59 fixed the first (nodes resolved the hostname to the
non-hairpinned WAN and failed TLS against the router's CN=%D cert). This is the second:
the pull is unauthenticated, and this registry refuses unauthenticated clients outright —
measured 2026-10-05, its anonymous token carries access: null and every path 401s.
pm-agent-registry is a dockerconfigjson Secret (SOPS, placeholders) referenced by
imagePullSecrets on the dispatcher Deployment and on the committed worker Job template. It
holds the SAME Gitea token as pm-agent-credentials, because the two consumers need two
formats: the application reads a raw token from env, the kubelet reads a dockerconfigjson
before any container starts. Same one-value-in-two-files pattern as the Keycloak client
secret, documented in both .example files. The operator's part is the value plus one new
scope: read:package.
ADMISSION GAINED A SEVENTH RULE. imagePullSecrets is a pod-spec field no container
references, which is exactly why it is easy to leave unread — the same shape of omission
as initContainers, ephemeralContainers, env and envFrom before it. The kubelet reads the
named Secret, in this namespace, before anything runs. Rule 1's pattern now REQUIRES the
committed entry; rule 7 forbids any other and any second one. Both halves are needed: a
foreach over an absent list yields no result.
The leverage is small and the policy says so: the image is digest-pinned, so a different
pull credential cannot change WHAT runs. Pinned anyway — 'only the committed shape' is the
premise, and the rule costs four lines.
kyverno test: 33 passed, 0 failed (was 28). Three new fixtures, each a real path: the
committed entry plus a second one, a different Secret, and none at all.
The gate also caught me shipping the Secret in plaintext — I never ran sops -e -i on the
placeholder. Recorded in the handoff entry, because the file looked finished.
