feat(schema): declare a host hardware capability, hardware.gpu: intel-quicksync

A ServiceDefinition could not say it needs the host's Intel QuickSync render device. The schema is `additionalProperties: false`, so there was no authorable form for it at all, and `apps/` is generated — a hand-edit would be reverted by the next render. Adds optional top-level `hardware`, with one optional member `gpu`, an enum whose only current value is `intel-quicksync` (schema 1.7.0 -> 1.8.0). The enum is the point. The SD declares WHAT CLASS of device it needs; the hostPath, the mount and the GID live only in catalog/render.py. Migrating to the Intel GPU device plugin (`gpu.intel.com/i915` resource requests, no hostPath) is then a renderer change with zero catalog edits. Letting an SD name `/dev/dri` directly would look simpler and make that migration a catalog-wide edit, so both the schema description and the renderer contract say so explicitly. When `hardware.gpu == intel-quicksync`, r_deployment emits, on the app container / pod spec only: - a hostPath volume `dri` -> /dev/dri, type DirectoryOrCreate; - a read-write volumeMount of it at /dev/dri (VA-API opens the render node read-write, so deliberately not readOnly); - INTEL_RENDER_GID MERGED into podSecurityContext.supplementalGroups, never clobbering what the SD already declares. `DirectoryOrCreate` is load-bearing. A node that comes back without the render device (rebuild, BIOS change, driver regression, hardware swap) must degrade the workload to software transcoding, not fail the mount: apps-wave-0 is `wait: true` and apps-wave-1 dependsOn it, so a failed hostPath mount stalls the whole app tier for a feature that is not load-bearing. /dev is tmpfs, so the empty directory the kubelet creates leaves nothing durable behind. Its cost — a missing device is silent, and no metric exists to alert on — is recorded in the contract rather than papered over with an alert that could not fire. Deliberately NOT emitted: no `privileged: true` (Kyverno restrict-host- namespaces is Enforce and it is not needed), no nodeSelector (placement is a separate concern with its own justification), no resource requests (there is no app-container resource render path). INTEL_RENDER_GID = 992 is a single named constant carrying its provenance: measured on all three prod nodes on 2026-09-30, and a *systemd dynamic* allocation rather than a static GID, so a node rebuild can move it. No catalog entry uses the field. Re-rendering `--all catalog -o apps` is a zero diff, which is the proof the change is inert until opted into. Three self-test cases in the existing check(...) style: the positive, the negative (an SD without `hardware` gains no volume, no mount, no securityContext — mirroring the podSecurityContext negative) and the merge case ([44] + 992 -> [44, 992], fsGroup preserved). Note that NO gate stage runs `render.py --selftest`; they were run by hand and the gap is recorded in the handoff. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[email protected]>

 # =============================================================================
 # L0 STATIC — no two oauth2-proxy instances can share a browser cookie
 # Catalog: docs/14 L0 row ("Pre-apply, in CI") — runs WITHOUT a cluster.
 #
 # THE DEFECT THIS CLOSES. Every oauth2-proxy on this platform is an INDEPENDENT instance with
 # its OWN `cookie-secret`: five per-app reverse-proxy sidecars (jackett, pihole, qbittorrent,
 # radarr, sonarr), crafty's, and the SHARED forward-auth proxy. Measured on prod 2026-09-30:
 # seven `*-oauth2-proxy` Secrets, SEVEN DISTINCT cookie-secret values — so no instance can
 # decrypt any other's cookie.
 #
 # They were all emitting oauth2-proxy's DEFAULT cookie names (`_oauth2_proxy` and
 # `_oauth2_proxy_csrf`), scoped to `.${BASE_DOMAIN}`. A cookie is keyed by (name, domain, path),
 # so the browser kept ONE pair for ALL of them. Whichever proxy authenticated last OVERWROTE
 # every other's session; the loser logged `No valid authentication in request`, bounced to
 # Keycloak, and — the SSO session still being live — was redirected straight back and overwrote
 # the cookie again. Six live instances, one cookie, mutual eviction.
 #
 # WHY IT IS THE WORST KIND OF BUG. The symptom is "I signed into Keycloak but I'm still not
 # signed in", which points the investigator at Keycloak, where nothing is wrong. It is
 # INTERMITTENT — it only appears once a browser has visited a SECOND gated app, so the obvious
 # single-app reproduction succeeds — and it is SILENT: every Deployment stays Ready, every
 # Kustomization stays Ready, the proxy's own log line names an authentication failure rather
 # than a collision. It went unnoticed across five services for the whole life of the pattern,
 # and was found only as a side effect of investigating something else (2026-09-29, crafty).
 #
 # WHY A COMMIT IS NOT ENOUGH, AND THIS IS A GATE STAGE. The collision is a property of the
 # PATTERN, not of any one app: the next forward-auth service onboarded inherits the defect by
 # doing nothing at all, because a missing flag IS the bug. Nothing about its absence is loud.
 # This is the same shape as the twelve inert ServiceMonitors in this tree — one omission,
 # copied, invisible for weeks — and the same remedy: make the omission fail the merge.
 #
 # GIVEN every oauth2-proxy instance this repo authors — a container in any manifest (the
 #       rendered sidecars in apps/, crafty's hand-authored one in platform/) and the shared
 #       proxy's HelmRelease values,
 # WHEN  each instance's EFFECTIVE cookie name is resolved (its declared `--cookie-name` /
 #       `OAUTH2_PROXY_COOKIE_NAME`, or oauth2-proxy's built-in default `_oauth2_proxy` when it
 #       declares none — an omission is a NAME, not an absence, and that is the whole bug),
 # THEN  (1) no two instances share an effective cookie name;
 #       (2) no instance's effective name is another's name + `_csrf` — oauth2-proxy derives the
 #           CSRF cookie that way, so `_oauth2_proxy` and `_oauth2_proxy_csrf` as two SESSION
 #           names would collide on the second cookie while looking distinct on the first;
 #       (3) the DEFAULT name has exactly ONE owner and it is the instance declared in
 #           SHARED_DEFAULT_COOKIE_OWNER. This is the deliberate ASYMMETRY. The shared
 #           forward-auth proxy MUST keep `_oauth2_proxy`: it is the single session every
 #           OTHER forward-auth-gated surface on the platform rides on, so renaming it signs
 #           every one of them out at once. The rule is therefore NOT "every instance must
 #           declare a name" — it is "the default is a NAME LIKE ANY OTHER, held by exactly one
 #           REGISTERED owner". That formulation needs no exemption from (1), and it closes the
 #           hole an exemption would leave: if the shared proxy is ever removed, an app silently
 #           inheriting the default would still FAIL here instead of quietly becoming its heir;
 #       (4) every instance that is NOT that owner is HOST-SCOPED: its `--cookie-domain` equals
 #           the host of its own `--redirect-url`. See the argument below;
 #       (5) catalog/render.py DERIVES both flags from the ServiceDefinition (the service name
 #           and the route host) and does not carry a per-service table. A list is how twelve
 #           ServiceMonitors acquired one identical wrong port name in a single edit, and a list
 #           leaves the NEXT app defaulting into the collision;
 #       (6) the SHIPPED renderer is proven END-TO-END on synthetic ServiceDefinitions, run as a
 #           subprocess: two forward-auth fixtures must yield two different, non-default cookie
 #           names, each scoped to its own host. Without this, once the tree is compliant (1)-(4)
 #           are satisfied by a tree with nothing left to catch, and a guard whose only evidence
 #           is "nothing failed" cannot be told apart from one that stopped working;
 #   AND (7) the check is LOAD-BEARING: this Test DECLARES `conformance.home.k3s/scope:
 #           whole-repo`, so ci/l0.sh Stage 3b's `--include-scope whole-repo` unions it into
 #           EVERY gate run, and ci/gate.sh blocks the merge when the l0 stage fails. It
 #           deliberately adds NO stage to ci/l0.sh — tests/l0-static/whole-repo-invariants-wired
 #           fails the gate if anyone adds one.
 #
 # WHY SCOPE, NOT REQUIREMENTS: ci/touched-requirements.sh maps `apps/*` to R-IDP-02/R-IDP-06
 # today, but the instances live in THREE unrelated subtrees (apps/, platform/crafty/,
 # platform/oauth2-proxy/) and the file most likely to reintroduce the defect is
 # catalog/render.py, which maps to R-GITOPS-02 and to no identity requirement at all. A
 # requirement-scoped selection would filter this check out of exactly the change that breaks it.
 #
 # ON ASSERTION (4), HOST-SCOPED COOKIE-DOMAIN — the argument, and the decision.
 #   AGAINST asserting it (overreach): distinct NAMES already close the eviction bug completely.
 #   Two cookies with different names do not overwrite each other however wide their domains are,
 #   so (4) fixes nothing that (1) has not already fixed. `--cookie-domain` is also a legitimate
 #   knob — a future proxy fronting two hostnames of one app would need a wider value — and a
 #   check that fails correct configurations is a check someone eventually disables.
 #   FOR asserting it (and this wins): a zone-wide cookie is TRANSMITTED BY THE BROWSER TO EVERY
 #   HOST IN THE ZONE. qBittorrent's session token is therefore sent to pihole, to radarr, to
 #   sonarr, and to every other name under `.${BASE_DOMAIN}` — including hosts behind no proxy at
 #   all. That is a session-credential disclosure across trust boundaries that no one needs and
 #   nobody asked for; the sidecar's session is only ever meaningful to the one app it fronts.
 #   And it is what makes a FUTURE name collision catastrophic rather than contained: with
 #   host-scoped cookies, two instances that accidentally share a name cannot even see each
 #   other's cookie, so the failure this whole test exists to prevent degrades from platform-wide
 #   to nothing. Defence in depth on the exact axis that already failed once.
 #   DECISION: assert it, for every instance except the registered shared proxy — whose whole
 #   job IS cross-host forward-auth, and which is exempted by name and with a reason, not by
 #   loosening the rule. `--whitelist-domain` is deliberately NOT touched: it governs permitted
 #   post-login REDIRECT targets, not cookie scope, and narrowing it breaks the sign-in bounce.
 #
 # STATUS: EXECUTABLE. `check.sh` is an offline assertion script (PyYAML, as catalog/render.py
 # and the sibling l0-static checks use); conformance/run.sh --layer l0 and ci/l0.sh run it
 # directly, and this Chainsaw Test wraps the SAME script.
 #
 # NOT proven (honest gaps; this is STATIC, with no cluster and no browser):
 #   - That anyone can actually sign in. No browser round-trip is performed, and none can be
 #     from L0. The 2026-09-29 crafty entry recorded the same gap and it is still open: the
 #     symptom has never been REPRODUCED in a browser, so this is a latent-bug fix reasoned from
 #     measured configuration, not a fix watched to work.
 #   - That the LIVE pods carry what the tree says. git is not the cluster (CLAUDE.md §2b). The
 #     live flags were measured separately, once, by hand; nothing here re-measures them, and a
 #     hand-applied drift would not be visible to this check.
 #   - That the cookie-secrets really differ. That is a Secret comparison and belongs in-cluster;
 #     it was measured out of band (seven distinct values, compared without printing any of
 #     them). If they were ever made IDENTICAL the collision would become harmless — but sharing
 #     one session-encryption key across trust zones is a worse idea than the bug it would mask,
 #     so this check does not offer it as an alternative and does not look for it.
 #   - Anything about the CONTENT of a session, group authorization, or the CSRF cookie's own
 #     behaviour. Names and domains only.
 #   - It does not read ../home-network-k3s. The spec is read-only (R-TEST-06).

 date: 2026-09-30
 branch: fix/oauth2-proxy-cookie-collision-fleet
 title: The cookie collision was never Crafty's — it was the renderer's, and it shipped to five apps
 ---
 ## What changed
 Follow-up #3 of `decisions/2026-09-29-crafty-oauth2-proxy-signin.md`: *"Any further per-app
 reverse-proxy sidecar needs a unique `--cookie-name` too. The collision is a property of the
 pattern, not of Crafty."*
 It is a property of the pattern, and this branch found where the pattern actually lives.
 **Read the scope claim carefully before the detail.** This branch fixes THREE defects in the
 forward-auth sidecar contract, all in one function, all landing on all five apps at once:
 | Defect | Fix | Measured evidence |
 |---|---|---|
 | Six independent instances, seven different cookie-secrets, **one** cookie name on **one** zone-wide domain — so they overwrite and `ClearSession`-delete each other's sessions | `--cookie-name=_oauth2_proxy_<app>` + host-scoped `--cookie-domain` | 7/7 distinct secrets; 6 instances on the default name; radarr logs the eviction fingerprint 8× in 12h |
 | The session dies **5 minutes** after sign-in — `--cookie-refresh` defaults to 0 = *disabled*, so the refresh token the proxy already holds is never spent | `--cookie-refresh=2m30s` (half the lifetime) | access-token lifetime = **300.000s exactly**, `refresh_token:true`, flag absent |
 | **No** per-app sidecar serves `/metrics` at all — without `--metrics-address` the listener never starts | `--metrics-address=0.0.0.0:44180` + a `metrics` container port | `ports` was `['http']` on all six |
 Rejection *volume* is dominated by the second defect, not the first: ~95% of radarr's rejections
 carry no cookie at all. **Do not merge this expecting one number to drop** — three mechanisms were
 tangled together, and separating them is most of the value here.
 **Boundary note.** My brief originally reserved `apps/wave-0/jackett.yaml` for a concurrent branch.
 That split is not achievable and has been revoked: the file is generated, the fix is one renderer
 edit, and `render-golden` requires all five goldens regenerated in the *same commit*. I own all
 five. The proof I ran before touching jackett is under "What I verified".
 **The defect was not in the four manifests it was reported in.** `apps/wave-0/pihole.yaml`,
 `apps/wave-0/qbittorrent.yaml`, `apps/wave-1/radarr.yaml`, `apps/wave-1/sonarr.yaml` — and
 `apps/wave-0/jackett.yaml` — are **generated goldens**. One function emits all five sidecars:
 `catalog/render.py::_oauth2_sidecar_container()`, which hardcoded `--cookie-domain=.{ZONE}` and
 emitted no `--cookie-name` at all. Hand-editing a golden is not a fix twice over: `ci/render-golden.sh`
 FAILS on the drift (provoked, not assumed — see below), and the next re-render silently reverts it.
 So the fix is in the generator, and both flags are now **derived** from the ServiceDefinition:
    --cookie-name=_oauth2_proxy_{s['name']}     unique per service, by construction
    --cookie-domain={host}                      the app's own route host, not the zone
 `--whitelist-domain` deliberately stays zone-wide — it governs permitted post-login *redirect*
 targets, not cookie scope. `catalog/render.py --selftest` gained four assertions, including one
 that renders a **second** synthetic forward-auth service and requires the two cookie names to
 differ, so a future refactor to a constant fails in the renderer's own test.
 Re-rendering with the canonical command regenerated **five** goldens, not four. Jackett is the
 fifth, and this is the one thing in this branch the PM brief did not anticipate — see
 "the jackett collision" below. The three `conformance/tests/l1-rendering/*/golden/` fixtures are
 expected-output copies of the same renderer, so they are regenerated too; that is not collateral
 damage, it is the L1 stage doing its job (it FAILED on the first gate run and named the drift).
 **The new gate check** is `conformance/tests/l0-static/oauth2-proxy-cookie-names-distinct/`,
 declaring `conformance.home.k3s/scope: whole-repo` so `ci/l0.sh`'s `--include-scope` union runs it
 on **every** gate invocation. No bespoke `ci/l0.sh` stage was added — `whole-repo-invariants-wired`
 fails the gate if anyone adds one, and the scope annotation is the supported mechanism.
 It inventories every oauth2-proxy instance the repo authors (containers at any depth, plus the
 shared proxy's HelmRelease values) and resolves each one's **effective** cookie name — its declared
 name, **or oauth2-proxy's built-in `_oauth2_proxy` when it declares none**. That single modelling
 decision is the whole check: an omitted flag is not an absence, it is a *claim on a name*, and
 treating it as an absence is precisely why five reviewers read these manifests and saw nothing.
 Then: (1) no two effective names collide; (2) no name is another's name + `_csrf`, because that is
 how oauth2-proxy derives the CSRF cookie and two such session names look distinct while their CSRF
 cookies collide; (3) the default name has exactly one owner, and it is the one registered in
 `SHARED_DEFAULT_COOKIE_OWNER`; (4) every non-registered instance is host-scoped; (5)
 `catalog/render.py` derives rather than lists; (6) the **shipped** renderer is proven end-to-end on
 two synthetic ServiceDefinitions run as a subprocess.
 **On the shared proxy — "distinct" or "explicitly declared"?** The brief asked me to decide, and
 the answer is *neither, quite*. The shared forward-auth proxy at `platform/oauth2-proxy/` **must
 keep** `_oauth2_proxy`: it is the single session every forward-auth-gated surface without its own
 sidecar rides on, so renaming it signs all of them out at once. Requiring *every* instance to
 declare a name would therefore need an exemption, and an exemption is a hole: delete the shared
 proxy and whichever app next omitted the flag would silently inherit the default with the rule
 still satisfied. So the assertion is plain **distinctness over effective names**, with the default
 treated as a name like any other — held by **exactly one owner, named in a shrink-only register
 with its reason**. The shared proxy needs no exemption from the rule; it is simply the registered
 holder of that one name. A stale register entry FAILS (the exemption would outlive its object) and
 an unregistered holder FAILS (no silent heirs). Both were provoked and are quoted below.
 **On host-scoped `--cookie-domain` — overreach, or not?** Asserted, and here is the argument both
 ways. *Against:* distinct names alone close the eviction bug completely — two differently-named
 cookies do not overwrite each other however wide their domains are — so this assertion fixes
 nothing (1) has not already fixed, and a check that fails a legitimate configuration is a check
 someone eventually disables. *For, and this wins:* a zone-wide cookie is **transmitted by the
 browser to every host in the zone**. qBittorrent's session token was being sent to pihole, radarr,
 sonarr and every other name under the zone, including hosts behind no proxy at all — a
 session-credential disclosure across trust boundaries that nothing needs. And it is what makes a
 *future* name collision catastrophic rather than contained: with host-scoped cookies, two
 instances that accidentally share a name cannot see each other's cookie at all. Defence in depth
 on the exact axis that already failed once. The escape hatch is the same register, by name and
 with a reason, rather than a loosened rule.
 ### The jackett boundary, and why it could not hold
 `apps/wave-0/jackett.yaml` carries the identical defect and was initially assigned to a concurrent
 branch, with an instruction to me not to touch it. **That separation is not achievable** — the
 ownership split was drawn across a generated file — and I did not discover this by reasoning about
 it, I provoked it. With the renderer fixed and jackett's golden left at its `main` content,
 `./ci/render-golden.sh` exits **1**:
    [fail] GOLDEN DRIFT: apps/wave-0/jackett.yaml does not match the canonical render:
    -        - --cookie-domain=.${BASE_DOMAIN}
    +        - --cookie-name=_oauth2_proxy_jackett
    +        - --cookie-domain=jackett.${BASE_DOMAIN}
    [fail] render==golden check FAILED
 Jackett's golden is an *output* of the file that contains the defect. There are exactly three
 options and two of them are worse: hand-edit four goldens and leave the generator broken (fails
 `render-golden`, and reverts on the next render); add a per-service carve-out to the renderer so
 jackett alone keeps defaulting (ships the exact "list, don't derive" anti-pattern this check
 exists to forbid, and leaves jackett broken *by design*); or fix the generator and regenerate all
 five. I took the third. Jackett's golden here is **machine output of a one-line generator change**,
 not an independent edit of Mira's file, and it is byte-identical to what her branch must produce.
 **Consequence:** the jackett branch has no cookie work left in it — this commit fixes jackett
 identically and by the same mechanism, and both branches independently arrived at the *same two
 values* (`_oauth2_proxy_jackett`, `jackett.${BASE_DOMAIN}`), which is a good sign for the
 diagnosis. Its hand-edit of the rendered file will fail `render-golden` on its own terms, so it
 should be closed rather than rebased. **What must not be lost with it** is its evidence: the
 interleaved radarr/jackett log showing `removing session` deleting a clean session 26s after login,
 and the `expires − created = 300.000s` measurement that produced `--cookie-refresh` here. Both are
 carried into this entry and into the renderer's comments; the branch itself is now redundant, the
 work behind it is not.
 **The general lesson, which is worth more than this bug:** an ownership split across
 `apps/wave-*/*.yaml` cannot hold, because those files are *outputs*. Two agents assigned two
 rendered apps are assigned the same function and will collide in `render-golden` no matter how
 carefully they stay in their own files. Ownership of a rendered app is ownership of
 `catalog/render.py`, and briefs should say so.
 ### What this branch deliberately does NOT do
 - **`--api-route=^/api/` is NOT added**, and not because of scope discipline alone: it would be
  **wrong** renderer-wide. It was measured on jackett, and **PiHole does not serve `/api/`** — so
  a renderer constant applies one app's path shape to five. Doing it properly means declaring API
  path prefixes per service, and the `auth` block is `additionalProperties: false`, so that is a
  *schema change*. Separate PR. (Note the flag is **`--api-route`, singular** — verified in the
  pinned binary's own `--help`. The plural `--api-routes` does not exist in v7.8.1 and the proxy
  refuses to start with it. That error was propagating through briefs; it stops here.)
 - **`--session-cookie-minimal` is NOT added** and must not be, as a cookie-size fix: it is
  **mutually exclusive** with `--cookie-refresh` (*"cookie_refresh > 0 requires oauth tokens in
  sessions"*). Dropping `--pass-access-token` is a least-privilege argument, never a size one.
 - **Metrics are NOT scraped, only served.** The flag and container port are the prerequisite;
  a container port is not a Service port. These Services expose the app port and `:4180`, and each
  namespace's default-deny baseline is `ingress: []`, so Prometheus can neither resolve nor reach
  `:44180` until a Service port (or PodMonitor), a monitoring-ingress allow and a ServiceMonitor
  exist. That wiring is someone else's follow-up and I have deliberately not faked its start.
  **Nobody should read this commit as "the sidecars have metrics now."**
 - **The new check was NOT widened to cover cookie-refresh or metrics.** Its subject is cookie
  *identity*; those two share neither its inputs nor its failure mode. Bundling them would make
  the check's name a lie and couple unrelated ratchets, so a future metrics decision could only
  be expressed by weakening a *cookie* check. The cost of that discipline is named honestly in
  the follow-ups: those two flags are currently **ungated**.
 ## What I verified
 - **The premise, in-cluster, rather than inherited from the handoff** (CLAUDE.md §2b). Read-only,
  `kubectl --context k3s-prod`, through the pinned toolbox.
  - **Seven** `*-oauth2-proxy` Secrets carry a `cookie-secret`: crafty, jackett, pihole,
    qbittorrent, radarr, sonarr, and the shared `oauth2-proxy-credentials`. **All seven values are
    DISTINCT.** Compared without printing anything: each value was hashed **in-cluster-side script,
    never echoed**, and only the first 8 hex characters of each `sha256` were emitted — enough to
    say same-or-different, recovering nothing. Secret *key names* were listed; no `.data` or
    `.stringData` was printed (CLAUDE.md §6). **So no instance can decrypt another's cookie — it can
    only overwrite it. The premise holds.**
  - **The default cookie names really were in use.** Of 8 live oauth2-proxy containers, **6 declare
    no `--cookie-name` at all** — jackett, pihole, qbittorrent, radarr, sonarr, and both replicas of
    the shared proxy — so all six emit `_oauth2_proxy` / `_oauth2_proxy_csrf`. All six also carry
    `--cookie-domain=.home.keithjackson.dev`. **One cookie pair, six independent instances.**
  - Crafty's live pod (`crafty-647c7d8cc5-5spv9`) already carries
    `--cookie-name=_oauth2_proxy_crafty` and `--cookie-domain=crafty.home.keithjackson.dev`, so
    PR #22 is merged and reconciled. It is the only compliant per-app instance on the cluster.
 - **THE COLLISION IS REAL. IT IS NOT ESTABLISHED AS THE CAUSE OF THE REPORTED FAILURES.** These
  are two different claims and only the first is supported. I was handed counter-evidence —
  crafty, the app already fixed, showed the *worst* rejection ratio of the set over a 24h Loki
  window (`crafty 81:1`, `radarr 67:1`, `jackett 39:4`) — and it is right to refuse the causal
  claim. What I could do was bound the window. Read from **each sidecar's own log** rather than
  Loki, because `kubectl logs` on a pod that has not restarted cannot reach a pod older than
  itself, so a window inside the pod's age is inside the fixed spec's lifetime *by construction*:
      namespace      age(h) rst  reject success    ratio  cleared  badsig
      crafty           13.9   0       3       0      n/a        0       0   <- FIXED spec, whole life

  `reject` = `No valid authentication in request`; `success` = `AuthSuccess`;
  `cleared` = `removing session` (oauth2-proxy's `ClearSession`); `badsig` = `cookie signature
  not valid`. Window `--since=24h`, which exceeds every pod's age only for crafty — whose pod is
  13.9h old with **0 restarts**, so these are its complete post-fix figures.
  Then I read crafty's four auth-relevant lines rather than counting them, because at n=3 the
  content is the evidence:
      03:57:20  Cookie settings: name:_oauth2_proxy_crafty secure(https):true httponly:true
                expiry:168h0m0s domains:crafty.home.keithjackson.dev path:/
      04:02:55  No valid authentication in request. Initiating login.
      15:22:39  No valid authentication in request. Initiating login.
      15:22:44  No valid authentication in request. Initiating login.
  6743 log lines; those are all four. **Zero** `removing session`, **zero** `cookie signature
  not valid`, zero anything else.
  Four conclusions, kept separate:
  1. **`crafty 81:1` is a window artefact. It is not evidence against the fix and must not be
     cited as such.** The fixed pod emitted **3** rejections in 13h 52m; the 81 came from a 24h
     window straddling it, i.e. from the pre-fix process.
  2. **The eviction FINGERPRINT is gone where the fix is deployed.** `cookie signature not
     valid` + `removing session` is what a clobbered instance logs — a cookie *is* present,
     written with a key this instance does not hold, so it cannot decrypt it and then
     `ClearSession` expires it on its own `--cookie-domain`. Fixed crafty: **0 and 0** across
     its whole life. Unfixed radarr: **8 and 8** in 12h. Unfixed jackett: 1 and 1. That is a
     real, directional signal and it is the strongest evidence available that the fix works.
  3. **It is still not a demonstrated successful sign-in.** Crafty logged **0 `AuthSuccess`** —
     so what is shown is *absence of the failure mode*, not a session observed working
     end-to-end. Those three rejections are consistent with benign first-hits (one client, two
     of them 5s apart, i.e. a page plus a `/ws` reconnect). I am comfortable saying the fix
     works; I am not willing to say it has been watched working, and the distinction is the
     whole reason this section exists.
  4. **The collision is a MINORITY of the rejection volume.** radarr: 8 of 155 (5%) carry the
     fingerprint; ~95% carry **no cookie at all**. Those are the 5-minute session expiry and
     `302`-on-XHR — the first of which this branch now also fixes, the second of which it
     deliberately does not.
  Two cautions about the instrument. `reject` ranks **chattiness, not breakage**: radarr's are
  `/api/v3/command`, `/api/v3/queue/details` and `/signalr/negotiate` polls, so a busy *arr
  inflates the count with nobody inconvenienced. And that same polling is the *amplifier* that
  made this intermittent — every poll carrying an undecryptable cookie calls `ClearSession`
  again on the zone-wide domain, so **a left-open Radarr tab deleted Jackett's cookie every few
  seconds, from another namespace, with no user action at all.** That is why signing in again
  never helped for longer than the gap between two polls. It is now a comment in the renderer,
  because it is the part of this bug that no one would reconstruct from the flags alone.
 - **The four target files are generated, not authored.** Rendering `catalog/` with the canonical
  command into a temp dir and diffing against `apps/` reported all 10 onboarded goldens
  byte-identical before any change. Hand-editing one is drift by definition.
 - **`render-golden` FAILS if jackett is excluded** — provoked (output quoted above), rc **1**.
  Restoring the regenerated golden returns it to `all 10 onboarded service golden(s) reproduce`,
  rc **0**.
 - **Every flag verified against the PINNED v7.8.1 binary**, not against docs, memory, or the
  shared proxy (which runs **v7.15.3** and therefore could not vouch for v7.8.1):
  `podman run --rm quay.io/oauth2-proxy/oauth2-proxy:v7.8.1 --help`.
  - `--cookie-name string ... (default "_oauth2_proxy")` — **this confirms the constant my whole
    check is built on, from the binary itself.** The check's central claim, that an omitted flag
    is a *claim on a name* rather than an absence, now rests on the implementation's own help
    text rather than on my reading of its source.
  - `--cookie-refresh duration  refresh the cookie after this duration; 0 to disable` — confirms
    the default really is disabled.
  - `--metrics-address string` — present in v7.8.1, so the new flag cannot crashloop the pods.
  - `--api-route strings` — **singular**, confirming the brief's plural was wrong.
  - `--session-cookie-minimal` — exists, and is the flag that conflicts with `--cookie-refresh`.
 - **44180 is the platform's existing convention, measured, not chosen.** The shared proxy already
  runs `--metrics-address=0.0.0.0:44180` with a `metrics` container port, a `metrics:44180`
  Service port, a ServiceMonitor whose endpoint is `metrics`, and **2 ready endpoint addresses** —
  i.e. it demonstrably works on this platform.
 - **`catalog/render.py --selftest`: PASS**, now including the two-service distinctness assertion,
  a `--cookie-refresh` assertion that PARSES the duration and requires `0 < refresh < 300s` (so
  `2m30s` -> `150s` -> `2.5m` all stay green but a silent widening past the token lifetime does
  not), a `--session-cookie-minimal` mutual-exclusion guard, and both metrics assertions.

  `tests/l0-static/oauth2-proxy-cookie-names-distinct` among 20 tests — i.e. it runs even when the
  touched-requirement filter matches nothing, which is the blind spot it was scoped for.
 - **The check was tested in BOTH directions**, against throwaway trees outside the repo, never by
  mutating the branch:
  - **Compliant tree (this branch): rc 0, 39 assertions, 7 instances audited.**
  - **Pre-fix tree** (`git archive HEAD` + this test dropped in): **rc 1, 26 failures**, naming all
    five violators, the 6-way `_oauth2_proxy` collision, the zone-wide domains, the renderer
    emitting no `--cookie-name`, and both synthetic fixtures rendering `None`.
  - **Targeted mutations on a compliant copy**, one assertion class each, all fired and nothing
    else did: duplicate name (sonarr←radarr) → 1 failure; CSRF derivation
    (`_oauth2_proxy_sonarr_csrf` as a session name) → fired; zone-wide `--cookie-domain` on pihole
    → 2 failures; crafty's `--cookie-name` deleted → unregistered-default-heir + 2-way collision;
    shared proxy renamed → **stale register entry** failure.
  - A **false positive was found and fixed** by this testing: `platform/oauth2-proxy/forward-auth-cec.yaml`
    contains `serviceName: oauth2-proxy/oauth2-proxy:80` — an Envoy `namespace/service:port`
    reference, not an image — which the first inventory scan counted as an unaudited instance. The
    scan is now anchored on `image:`, and the near-miss is documented in the check.
 - **Gate:** toolbox `./ci/gate.sh` — exit code and stage list in the next section, because it is
  not a pass and that belongs there.
 ## What I did NOT verify
 - **Local gate: rc 3 (UNDETERMINED), not 0.** Green: `spec-immutability`, `decisions-log`, `lint`,
  `l0`, `render-golden`, `l1`, `approval-policy`. **Skipped:** `gitea-settings` (no
  `SETTINGS_API_TOKEN` locally) and **L2/L3 conformance** (`CLUSTER_AVAILABLE` unset). Nothing
  FAILED; nothing runtime was certified either. **rc 3 is UNDETERMINED, never green.** Touched
  subset `R-GITOPS-02 R-IDP-02 R-IDP-06 R-NET-01 R-NET-05 R-NET-06 R-NET-07 R-PLAT-02 R-TEST-01
  R-TEST-02 R-TEST-03 R-TEST-04` — **UNVERIFIED** at L2/L3, all twelve.
 - **`spec-immutability` was skipping because of a BUG IN MY TOOLING, not the environment.** The
  worktree ENGINE shim in circulation mounts only the main checkout's `.git`, and `dev.sh`
  computes the spec path from its own `REPO_ROOT` — which in a worktree is
  `.claude/worktrees/agent-*/`, so `../home-network-k3s` does not resolve and it adds no spec
  mount at all. The gate then reported the skip, and the skip read as "the one tolerated
  environmental skip" while actually being a path bug being waved through. Adding
  `-v /var/home/keith/source/home-network-k3s:/home-network-k3s:ro -e SPEC_REPO=/home-network-k3s`
  makes **R-TEST-06 actually run and pass**. Worth putting in every worktree agent brief; the
  two-mount shim in CLAUDE.md §3 should say so.
 - **CI: `gate / gate (pull_request)` reports FAILURE on `75a4029`, for exactly ONE reason, and it
  is not this change.** Read from the job log rather than the tick:
      [fail] approval-policy: a sensitive change lacks a non-author approval -> blocks merge
      [fail] MERGE GATE: BLOCKED
  Every substantive stage is **green in CI** — `gitea-settings: pass` (CI has the token my local
  run does not), `decisions-log`, `lint`, `l0`, `render-golden`, `l1`. Skipped: `spec-immutability`
  (the workflow does not check the spec repo out — the documented tolerated skip) and
  `conformance` (declared). So CI is a **stricter, more complete** run than my local one on every
  axis except the spec repo, and it agrees.
  `infra/gitea/approval-policy.json` lists `conformance/**` as sensitive — *"the tests and the
  harness; changing them changes what green MEANS"* — so this PR is **fail-closed pending a
  non-author approving review**, which is CLAUDE.md §1 working, not a defect to route around.
  **The red tick is the policy, and it clears when a human reviews it.** Note also that
  `gate / conformance (pull_request)` reports `success` with description **"Has been skipped"** —
  the precise trap CLAUDE.md §2b names; it certifies nothing.
 - **A SUCCESSFUL SIGN-IN, ANYWHERE.** The strongest post-fix evidence is the *absence* of the
  eviction fingerprint on crafty (0 `removing session`, 0 `cookie signature not valid`, across
  13h 52m) against radarr's 8-and-8. That is directional and I believe it. But crafty logged
  **0 `AuthSuccess`** in the same window, so no session has been observed working end to end on a
  fixed instance. Whoever closes this out should re-measure crafty **after real sign-in traffic**.
 - **No browser round-trip by me at all**, for any of the three defects. Reproducing the collision
  needs two gated apps visited in one session. The concurrent jackett branch does carry an observed
  log-level reproduction (interleaved radarr/jackett `removing session` deleting a clean session
  26s after login) — real evidence for the MECHANISM, and it is theirs, not mine.
 - **`--cookie-refresh=2m30s` has never been exercised.** The value is derived from a measured
  300.000s access-token lifetime and is asserted to sit inside `(0, 300s)`, but no session has been
  held past the five-minute cliff to watch a refresh succeed. If Keycloak's refresh-token or SSO
  idle timeouts are shorter than expected, the symptom moves rather than disappears. **This is the
  fix most likely to need a second pass**, and the first thing to watch after merge.
 - **The `metrics` port has never been fetched.** The listener is asserted to start by flag
  presence only; nobody has curled `:44180` on a rendered pod. And it is unreachable by design
  until the Service/policy/ServiceMonitor wiring lands — see above.
 - **Nothing was applied.** No `kubectl apply/edit/patch`, no `flux reconcile`. Cluster access was
  read-only throughout; the one container I ran was the oauth2-proxy image locally under podman to
  read its `--help`. The running pods are still the pre-fix spec. **Merging is what deploys**, and
  it will roll five Deployments; every user's existing session on those five apps is invalidated by
  the cookie rename and they will re-authenticate once. Radarr/sonarr/qbittorrent use
  `strategy: Recreate` on RWO volumes, so there is a brief gap per app. Pick the moment — and
  note this now changes **three** flags plus a port on all five, so a bad `--cookie-refresh` value
  would surface as five apps misbehaving, not one.
 - **The live flags are not re-measured by the check.** git is not the cluster. I measured the live
  pods by hand, once; nothing in the gate re-reads them, so hand-applied drift would be invisible
  to it. A live-state assertion is L2 and is not written.
 - **`--cookie-refresh` and `--metrics-address` are UNGATED, and I found out why.** Nothing in
  `ci/` or `.gitea/` runs `catalog/render.py --selftest` — I grepped for it. So the twenty-odd
  assertions in that selftest, including the six I just added, are dev-time only: a future edit
  that drops either flag *and* re-renders the goldens would pass the entire merge gate.
  `render-golden` catches accidental drift (golden vs renderer) but not a deliberate removal of
  both together, and my L0 check deliberately does not cover these two flags. **The repo already
  has the precedent for the fix and the one-line shape of it:**
  `conformance/tests/l0-static/auditability-proofs-producible/check.sh:291` drives
  `conformance/lib/<tool> --selftest` as a subprocess for exactly this reason — its own header
  says it does so "because nothing [else] drives them". Adding `catalog/render.py` to that list,
  or giving the renderer its own scope-declaring L0 test, closes it. I did not do it here because
  it widens an already review-blocked PR into a third subject; it is the highest-value follow-up
  in this entry.
 - **Log-derived counts are a weak instrument and I did not strengthen them.** `kubectl logs
  --since=` returns what the kubelet still retains, so an old, busy container's window may be
  truncated; and `No valid authentication in request` counts unauthenticated first hits and XHR
  polls indiscriminately. The `cookie signature not valid` / `removing session` pair is the only
  collision-specific signal in there, and it is the one I leaned on. None of this is gated —
  there is no alert on it and no L2 check reads it.
 - **The cookie-secrets' distinctness is not gated either.** It was measured out of band and is
  asserted nowhere. If they were ever made identical the collision would become harmless — but
  sharing one session-encryption key across trust zones is a worse idea than the bug it would mask,
  so the check does not offer it as an alternative and does not look for it.
 - **The shared proxy's own configuration is unchanged and untested by me.** I did not touch
  `platform/oauth2-proxy/**` (owned by another agent this cycle); the check only reads it.
 - **Nothing about group authorization, CSRF behaviour, or session contents.** Names and domains only.
 - **`vars.CLUSTER_AVAILABLE` is still unset in CI**, so the PR's green tick — if it goes green —
  proves the L0/L1 offline subset and nothing about runtime.

 branch: feat/sd-hardware-capability
 title: ServiceDefinition gains a `hardware` capability field — `gpu: intel-quicksync` renders the /dev/dri wiring, and the enum is what keeps the mechanism swappable
 ---
 ## What changed
 A new optional top-level ServiceDefinition property, `hardware`, with one optional member,
 `gpu`, whose enum today has exactly one value: `intel-quicksync`. **No catalog entry uses it.**
 This PR delivers the capability; consuming it (Plex) is separate work on top.
 - `schemas/servicedefinition.schema.json` — adds `hardware` (object, `additionalProperties: false`,
  `minProperties: 1`) with `gpu` (enum `["intel-quicksync"]`). Schema version bumped **1.7.0 →
  1.8.0**, changelog entry prepended to the schema `description` per that file's own convention.
 - `catalog/render.py` — three module-level constants (`DRI_VOLUME_NAME`, `DRI_DEVICE_DIR`,
  `INTEL_RENDER_GID = 992`) and the emission in `r_deployment`.
 - `schemas/renderer-contract.md` — new `### hardware` field-mapping section, plus cross-field
  invariant **8** in that file's numbered list.
 - `schemas/README.md` — its `**Schema version:**` line said `1.0.0`; it had been stale since 1.1.0.
  Synced to 1.8.0 and annotated that the schema `description` is the changelog of record. Added one
  bullet to "Cross-field rules" for the new enum. That was the whole of the staleness; nothing
  ballooned.
 **What the renderer emits** for `hardware.gpu: intel-quicksync`, on the app container / pod spec
 only (never a sidecar):
 1. a hostPath volume `dri` → `/dev/dri`, `type: DirectoryOrCreate`;
 2. a read-write `volumeMount` of `dri` at `/dev/dri` on the app container (deliberately not
   `readOnly` — VA-API opens the render node read-write);
 3. `INTEL_RENDER_GID` **merged into** `podSecurityContext.supplementalGroups`, never clobbering
   what the SD already declares.
 It emits **no** `privileged: true` (Kyverno `restrict-host-namespaces` is Enforce on app namespaces
 and it is not needed), **no** `nodeSelector` (placement is a separate concern with its own
 justification) and **no** resource requests (there is no app-container resource render path).
 **The design decision worth defending: the field is an enum of intent, not a device path.** The SD
 says *what class of host device the workload needs*; the hostPath, the mount and the GID exist only
 in `catalog/render.py`. Migrating to the Intel GPU device plugin (`gpu.intel.com/i915` resource
 requests, no hostPath at all) is then a renderer change with zero catalog edits. Both the schema
 `description` and the contract section say this explicitly, because the obvious "simplification" —
 letting an SD name `/dev/dri` — would push a platform implementation detail into the operator-facing
 contract and make that migration a catalog-wide edit.
 **`DirectoryOrCreate` is load-bearing.** A node that comes back without the render device (rebuild,
 BIOS change, driver regression, hardware swap) must degrade the workload to software transcoding,
 not fail the mount: `apps-wave-0` is `wait: true` and `apps-wave-1` `dependsOn` it, so a failed
 hostPath mount stalls the entire app tier for the sake of a feature that is not load-bearing.
 `/dev` is tmpfs, so the empty directory the kubelet creates on such a node leaves nothing durable
 behind. Do not "tighten" it to `Directory`. The reasoning is recorded at the emission site.
 ## What I verified
 Measured, in this worktree, on this branch:
 - **`python3 catalog/render.py --selftest` → `render.py selftest: PASS`, rc 0.** Three new cases
  were added in the existing `check(...)` style: the positive (volume + mount + GID, and *no*
  privileged/nodeSelector), the negative (an SD without `hardware` gains no volume, no volumeMount
  and no `securityContext`), and the merge case (`supplementalGroups: [44]` + the field →
  `[44, 992]`, with `fsGroup` preserved).
 - **The self-tests actually bite.** I mutated the guard (`if hw_gpu == "intel-quicksync":` → `if
  True:`) in a scratch copy and re-ran: rc 1 with three named failures, including "an SD without
  `hardware` must gain no dri volume, no mount and no securityContext". A test that cannot fail is
  not a test; this one can.
 - **Re-render is a zero diff.**
  `python3 catalog/render.py --all catalog -o apps --wave-layout --no-image-automation` then
  `git diff --stat apps/` → **empty**, and `git status --porcelain apps/` → **empty** (so the two
  not-onboarded by-products, `apps/wave-1/keycloak.yaml` and `apps/wave-0/vm-demo.yaml`, were
  rewritten byte-identically and needed no revert). The change is inert until a service opts in.
 - **Schema validity and catalog conformance.** `Draft202012Validator.check_schema` passes; all
  **12** `catalog/*.yaml` validate with **0** errors. On the new field specifically: `gpu:
  intel-quicksync` accepted; `gpu: /dev/dri` rejected (enum); `hardware: {gpu: …, path: …}` rejected
  (`additionalProperties: false`); `hardware: {}` rejected (`minProperties: 1`).
 - **Hand-checked the emitted YAML** by rendering a throwaway SD carrying `hardware`, a Longhorn
  volume and its own `podSecurityContext: {runAsUser: 1000, supplementalGroups: [44]}`. Result:
  `volumeMounts` = config then `{name: dri, mountPath: /dev/dri}`; `securityContext` =
  `{runAsUser: 1000, supplementalGroups: [44, 992]}`; `volumes` = the PVC then
  `{name: dri, hostPath: {path: /dev/dri, type: DirectoryOrCreate}}`. That toy SD was never written
  into `catalog/`.
 - **GATE: `rc 3` — UNDETERMINED, NOT green.** Run in the pinned toolbox from this worktree with
  both CLAUDE.md §3 workarounds (`DEV_KUBECONFIG=/dev/null`, and an `ENGINE` shim bind-mounting the
  main checkout's `.git` at its own absolute path). Diff base `origin/main @ 0fbf544d5e2f` … `HEAD @
  9f0db1495cfd`; touched requirements `R-DNS-03 R-GITOPS-02 R-IDP-02`. Per stage:
  | stage | result |
  |---|---|
  | spec-immutability | **SKIPPED** — sibling spec repo not at `/work/../home-network-k3s`. Expected from a worktree; tolerated by §3. |
  | decisions-log | pass |
  | lint | pass |
  | l0 | pass |
  | render-golden | pass — *"all 10 onboarded service golden(s) reproduce from the canonical render"* |
  | l1 | pass — 3 offline checks, `0 failure(s), 0 skip(s), 0 unwired`; coverage 51/51 requirements scaffolded |
  | approval-policy | pass (`event='none'`, not a pull_request event — N/A locally; it will evaluate for real on the PR) |
  | gitea-settings | **SKIPPED** — `SETTINGS_API_TOKEN` unset. Expected; branch protection and runner registration are therefore UNVERIFIED by this run. |
  | conformance (L2/L3) | **SKIPPED** — `CLUSTER_AVAILABLE!=true`. Phase-0 standing skip. |
  The gate's own verdict: *"Stages that did not run: spec-immutability gitea-settings"*. **No stage
  failed, and no stage skipped for a reason caused by this change.** rc 3 is reported as rc 3; I am
  not calling this green.
 - **Blast radius of the schema change:** `hardware` is absent from every catalog entry, so
  `apply_defaults` never materializes it and `s.get("hardware")` is `None` on all 12 — which is what
  the zero diff above demonstrates rather than asserts.
 - **Touched no sensitive path.** Changes are confined to `schemas/`, `catalog/`, `decisions/`; per
  `infra/gitea/approval-policy.json` none of those are sensitive. `conformance/**` and `clusters/**`
  are untouched. I did not run `--emit-waves` (it writes `clusters/base/`, and the set of files
  under `apps/` did not change).
 ## What I did NOT verify
 - **Whether a non-privileged pod can actually `open()` this hostPath char device at all. This is
  the largest technical risk in the workstream and nobody has tested it.** `supplementalGroups` gets
  the DAC permission bits right, but containerd installs a **device cgroup** allow-list per
  container, and whether `/dev/dri/renderD128` reaching the container as a bind-mounted device node
  is also permitted by that cgroup on this k3s/containerd version is **unmeasured**. If it is not,
  the mount will succeed, the group will be present, and the `open()` will still fail `EPERM` — and
  the design would need the device plugin (which sets the cgroup entry) rather than a hostPath. The
  first real consumer proves or disproves this; nothing in this PR does.
 - **That a missing device degrades silently — and nothing will tell you.** This is the accepted cost
  of `DirectoryOrCreate`. The workload will software-transcode and **no signal reports it**: media
  apps in this catalog declare no `metricsEndpoint`, so no ServiceMonitor exists, and there is no
  metric to alert on. I deliberately did **not** propose an alert, because an alert that cannot fire
  is worse than none — see the 2026-09-13 correction in `renderer-contract.md` §`observability`,
  where twelve monitors discovered zero targets. The only proof of hardware transcode is an operator
  seeing it in the application's own dashboard.
 - **Whether GID 992 survives a node rebuild.** It was measured on all three prod nodes on
  2026-09-30 and was identical on each, but `render` is a *systemd dynamic* group allocation, not a
  Debian/LSB static GID. A reinstall that creates system groups in a different order can move it,
  and nothing in this repo would notice. Recorded in the constant's comment; re-measure `getent
  group render` on every node after any rebuild.
 - **Whether `supplementalGroups` is the load-bearing mechanism or belt-and-braces.** A concurrent
  agent was checking whether the pms-docker image's `45-plex-hw-transcode-and-connected-tuner` init
  hook resolves the render group dynamically at startup. **No finding reached me**, so the constant's
  comment describes the GID and its provenance without claiming which mechanism does the work.
  Update that comment if the answer arrives.
 - **Anything on the live cluster.** I ran no `kubectl`. The node facts above (device present,
  `root:render` 0660, GID 992, `i915` bound, no device plugin, no `gpu.intel.com/*` advertised) and
  the Kyverno posture (`restrict-host-namespaces` Enforce; no hostPath or `supplementalGroups`
  restriction; no PSA labels on app namespaces) are **prior recon handed to me, not re-measured by
  me**. Per CLAUDE.md §2b, treat them as second-hand until re-queried.
 - **That CI exercises the self-tests. It does not.** `git grep -- --selftest ci/` returns nothing —
  no gate stage invokes the renderer's self-test. They are the executable spec and house style, and
  I ran them by hand, but a future regression in this code path **will not be caught by the gate**.
  Wiring `--selftest` into a gate stage is a real gap and is not part of this PR (`ci/` is a
  sensitive path and would drag in a human reviewer for a change unrelated to this one).
 - **Runtime behaviour of any kind.** The gate proves the L0/L1 offline subset only;
  `vars.CLUSTER_AVAILABLE` is unset, so L2/L3 conformance does not run in CI.

 ### `hardware` (`gpu`) — host device capability
 - **The field is INTENT, never MECHANISM.** `hardware.gpu` is an **enum of capability classes**
  (today: `intel-quicksync`), not a device path, not a hostPath, not a resource request. The
  ServiceDefinition says *what class of host device this workload needs*; how the platform hands it
  over is `catalog/render.py`'s business and lives nowhere else. **Do not "simplify" this into a raw
  `/dev/...` path.** The entire payoff is that migrating from the hostPath mechanism below to the
  Intel GPU device plugin (`resources.limits: gpu.intel.com/i915`) is a renderer change with **zero**
  catalog edits and zero re-review of per-service device wiring. Extend the enum for a genuinely
  different capability class (e.g. `nvidia-nvenc`); never to name a second route to the same one.
 - `gpu: intel-quicksync` → on the **app container / pod spec only** (never a sidecar):
  1. a **hostPath volume** `dri` → `/dev/dri`, **`type: DirectoryOrCreate`**;
  2. a **read-write volumeMount** of `dri` at `/dev/dri` on the app container (VA-API opens the
     render node read-write, so it is deliberately not `readOnly`);
  3. the host `render` **GID merged into `podSecurityContext.supplementalGroups`** — merged, never
     clobbered, so an SD that declares its own supplemental groups keeps all of them and gains one.
     `/dev/dri/renderD128` is `root:render` mode `0660`, so a non-root container needs the group.
     The GID is the single constant `INTEL_RENDER_GID` in `catalog/render.py` (992, **measured
     2026-09-30 on all three prod nodes**; it is a *systemd dynamic* allocation, not a static GID,
     so a node rebuild can move it — re-measure `getent group render` before assuming).
 - **`DirectoryOrCreate` is load-bearing — do not tighten it to `Directory`.** A node that comes back
  without the render device (rebuild, BIOS change, driver regression, hardware swap) must degrade the
  workload to **software transcoding**, not fail the mount. `apps-wave-0` is `wait: true` and
  `apps-wave-1` `dependsOn` it, so a failed hostPath mount stalls the **whole app tier** for the sake
  of a feature that is not load-bearing. `/dev` is tmpfs, so the empty directory the kubelet creates
  on such a node leaves nothing durable behind.
  - **The cost of that choice, stated plainly:** a missing device is **silent**. The workload
    software-transcodes and nothing reports it. There is no metric to alert on — media apps here
    render no `metricsEndpoint`, so no ServiceMonitor exists — and an alert that cannot fire is worse
    than none (see §`observability`'s 2026-09-13 correction). The only proof of hardware transcode is

Schema version: 1.8.0 (adds optional `hardware` - a host HARDWARE CAPABILITY declaration for the container kind, currently one member: `hardware.gpu: intel-quicksync`, meaning the workload needs the host iGPU render device for hardware video transcode. It is an ENUM OF INTENT, not a device path: the renderer satisfies it today with a /dev/dri hostPath volume (`DirectoryOrCreate`), a read-write /dev/dri volumeMount on the app container, and the host `render` GID merged into podSecurityContext.supplementalGroups, and a later move to the Intel GPU device plugin is then a render.py change with no catalog edit. Renders NOTHING when absent, so every existing app stays byte-identical. Emits no privileged securityContext (Kyverno restrict-host-namespaces would reject it and it is not needed), no nodeSelector (node placement is a separate concern with its own justification) and no resource requests). 1.7.0 (no field changes; a MAPPING change to `exposure`, which had never had an effect on DNS. `exposure: internal` now renders ExternalDNS's own controller annotation onto every HTTPRoute it emits, set to a value other than `dns-controller`, so external-dns (v0.21.0, source/gateway.go -> annotations.IsControllerMismatch) skips the route before resolving any hostname and the service is INCAPABLE of producing a public record.
