Cut the GitOps source over from the bootstrap host-Gitea
(http://192.168.2.103:3000) to the now-healthy in-cluster Gitea at
https://gitea.home.keithjackson.dev. Public repo, LE-prod wildcard
cert publicly trusted, resolved in-cluster via coredns->Gateway, so
no secretRef/caCert needed. Bootstrap host-Gitea retained (stopped)
as a recovery path.

Admission controller was crashlooping (9 restarts/4h, exit 255, NOT OOM:
live usage ~65Mi/384Mi limit, 7m cpu). Root cause: chart-default 100m CPU
request starved the process under node contention, so client-go calls hit
context-deadline-exceeded, leader-election lease renewal timed out, leadership
was lost and the webhook server closed. Raise the CPU request to 250m (no CPU
limit, to avoid CFS throttling) with modest memory headroom (256Mi/512Mi), and
raise dev admission replicas 1->2 so a single fail-closed pod restart no longer
502s cluster-wide admission-gated writes.

oauth2-proxy + Grafana OIDC discovery to keycloak.home.keithjackson.dev failed x509
'unknown authority' — the wildcard was LE-staging (untrusted). Prod issuer is registered
+ Ready; switching ACME_CLUSTER_ISSUER dev override staging->prod re-issues a publicly
trusted cert. Needed for functional SSO (R-IDP) + R-TLS-01/03 'trusted'.
NOTE: the trusted-tls conformance test embeds the LE-staging root and must be updated to
the LE production root (ISRG Root X1) / system trust — follow-up.

The on-cluster cluster-vars ConfigMap wasn't reconciled by Flux — this bootstrap
model had no Kustomization watching clusters/dev, so cluster-vars/overlay changes
needed a manual 'kubectl apply -k clusters/dev' (e.g. DNS_ZONE substituted empty
until re-applied). Add clusters/dev/sync.yaml: a self-managing root Kustomization
(flux2 gotk-sync pattern, name flux-system) that reconciles ./clusters/dev from git
— cluster-vars, the GitRepository, platform/platform-config/apps, and itself. A git
push now suffices. Bootstrap unchanged ('kubectl apply -k clusters/dev' creates it
once). Verified: dev build contains all 6 objects (root + existing), prod unaffected.

Kyverno HelmRelease install failed at Helm templating: config.webhooks was a
LIST [{failurePolicy, namespaceSelector}], but the kyverno 3.3.9 chart expects
config.webhooks to be a MAP (webhooks.namespaceSelector) — the chart helper reads
.namespaceSelector off the value directly ('can't evaluate field namespaceSelector
in type []interface {}'). Also, failurePolicy is not a per-webhook field here; the
chart's global switch is config.forceFailurePolicyIgnore.enabled (bool).
Fix: config.webhooks -> map with namespaceSelector (system+platform excludes);
add config.forceFailurePolicyIgnore.enabled = ${KYVERNO_FORCE_FAILURE_POLICY_IGNORE}.
Renamed the cluster-var KYVERNO_WEBHOOK_FAILURE_POLICY (Fail/Ignore) ->
KYVERNO_FORCE_FAILURE_POLICY_IGNORE (false base / true dev). Verified with
helm template (renders 73 objects, no error); gate PASS.

Prep only — nothing deployed; running cluster untouched.
Reconciliation graph (operator-approved Option A): author clusters/dev/rollout/
= 4 per-component Flux Kustomizations (kyverno->cilium->longhorn->monitoring,
monitoring dependsOn longhorn). Dev overlay $patch:delete's the monolithic base
platform/apps and adds ./rollout, so only the no-secret tier reconciles; the
secret-blocked components are simply not created until hand-offs arrive. The
no-secret tier carries no SOPS content, so it needs no sops-age key. prod is
untouched (still builds the monolith). Convergence path coded in (delete rollout/
+ the two deletes) — R-ENV-02 divergence flagged for architect review.
Component hardening via cluster-vars (prod keeps strict posture):
- KYVERNO_VALIDATION_ACTION Enforce->Audit(dev), _WEBHOOK_FAILURE_POLICY
Fail->Ignore(dev), _ADMISSION_REPLICAS 3->1(dev); webhook namespaceSelector
excludes system+platform namespaces.
- MONITORING_STORAGE_CLASS var; GRAFANA_ADMIN_SECRET var (dev ''=chart default);
Alertmanager SMTP/secret deferred to Phase-4 with verbatim re-enable markers.
Cilium parity verified against the live CNI (no-op adopt). Validated:
kubectl kustomize dev/prod/all-components, envsubst->YAML parse, make -C ci gate PASS.

Flux postBuild.substituteFrom is case-sensitive; platform/ components reference
${UPPERCASE} tokens but cluster-vars keys were lowercase -> none would resolve
(literal ${...} would reach the HelmReleases). Uppercased the ConfigMap data
keys + the dev/prod overlay patch paths. Every component ref now resolves;
clusters/dev & clusters/prod build; gate green. Clears the K1 landmine before
any platform un-suspend.

Run a single Gitea container on the host (bootstrap/gitea/), outside the cluster,
while the cluster is built; Flux pulls this repo from it over the k3s-dev NAT
gateway (http://10.73.0.1:3000/Home-Network/home-network-k3s-impl.git, public repo
=> no creds, NAT-only). Wired the flux-system GitRepository url in clusters/dev.
Migrates to in-cluster Gitea in Phase 6. Pins confirmed. Author-only; gate PASS.
