The bulk tier's PersistentVolumes need a server address, and there is no single correct one: the
two clusters sit on OPPOSITE SIDES of pfSense from the storage host, which has exactly one
interface (vmbr0 192.168.1.9/24, on pfSense's LAN).
dev 192.168.1.40/.41/.42 — the SAME segment. Reaches it directly, and already holds one NFS
export from it (/mnt/Storage/k8s-volumes, in the host's /etc/exports). Proven path, so
base's default is the dev value per this file's existing convention, and dev restates it.
prod 192.168.2.10/.11/.12 — pfSense's WAN. tcp/2049 does not traverse that today; 22 and 8006
answer only because pfSense port-forwards them via 192.168.2.102. Opening the storage path
is a PENDING operator decision whose two candidate outcomes give DIFFERENT values here:
192.168.2.102 (another port-forward) or 192.168.1.9 (a route). So prod holds
TBD-PROD-BULK-NFS-SERVER, this repo's established loud-placeholder convention.
Two findings recorded in the prod overlay because they change what the operator has to do:
* THE EXPORT'S CLIENT LIST IS THE SAME UNDER BOTH OUTCOMES. Measured today from this
workstation (192.168.2.132) through the existing port-forward: the storage host logged the
connection as coming from 192.168.2.132 — a WAN-side address — not from a pfSense LAN address
(`ss -tn` peer 192.168.2.132; the host's only route off-LAN is its default via 192.168.1.1).
pfSense DNATs WITHOUT source NAT, so the NFS server sees prod's REAL node addresses either
way. The `zfs set sharenfs=` work therefore does not have to wait for the routing decision.
* ONE PORT, NOT FOUR. The PVs mount nfsvers=4.1, and NFSv4 carries mount and lock in-protocol —
no rpcbind/111, mountd or statd. Whichever outcome is chosen, it opens tcp/2049 and nothing
else. NFSv3 would have needed four ports, three of them on ephemeral numbers.
*** AND ONE HONEST WEAKNESS, stated in the overlay where an operator will hit it. ***
Unlike the LAN knobs above it, this placeholder does NOT fail at apply time. A PV's
spec.nfs.server is an unvalidated string: the API server accepts it, the PV is created, and the
PVC BINDS (binding is pure control-plane). The failure appears only when a pod mounts —
MountVolume.SetUp "Failed to resolve server TBD-PROD-BULK-NFS-SERVER" — so plex, sonarr, radarr
and nextcloud would sit in ContainerCreating on prod. There is no CRD validation to lean on here,
so the guard has to be procedural: set the value before prod reconciles a revision carrying the
bulk volumes. Dev renders a working value and is where these manifests are meant to be proven.
Related finding, NOT fixed here because the file does not exist on main: the static guard this
convention is supposed to lean on, `bootstrap/standup.sh`'s `s3_is_placeholder` family, is absent
from main (it lives on unmerged prod branches), so
conformance/tests/l0-static/placeholder-guard-coupling exits 3 SKIPPED and nothing in the gate
currently refuses a placeholder-shaped overlay value. When standup.sh lands, its guard needs an
arm for this knob and a consumer that calls it — assertions (2) and (3) of that check then cover
this value automatically, since the detector's SEED vocabulary already matches "TBD".
Evidence: `kubectl kustomize clusters/dev` -> BULK_NFS_SERVER: 192.168.1.9;
`kubectl kustomize clusters/prod` -> BULK_NFS_SERVER: TBD-PROD-BULK-NFS-SERVER. Both exit 0.

home-network-k3s-impl
Implementation of the home k3s + Longhorn platform. This repo holds the reconciled artifacts
(Flux config, Kustomize overlays, KubeVirt/Helm manifests, ServiceDefinitions, Kyverno policies,
Chainsaw conformance tests, CI). It is driven by — and subordinate to — the read-only
specification at ../home-network-k3s.
Rules (from the spec — non-negotiable)
- The spec is read-only. Never modify anything under
../home-network-k3s. Implement against it; escalate spec problems, don't edit them (specAGENTS.md§11, R-TEST-06). - Done = a green, reproducible, requirement-tagged conformance test — never "merged," never a
manual demo (spec
docs/14,agents/definition-of-done.md). - No work on
main. Every change is a feature branch merged intomain(specCONTRIBUTING.md). - No plaintext secrets — SOPS-encrypted only (spec
docs/07). - Phase discipline — only build what the active roadmap phase authorizes (spec
roadmap/phases.md).
Layout
infra/ node provisioning: OpenTofu (Proxmox VE) + cloud-init + Ansible, and the
pinned dev container that carries the whole toolchain
bootstrap/ one-time cluster bootstrap: Flux install, SOPS/age key, host Gitea
platform/ platform CONTROLLERS (Flux HelmReleases / operator bases): kyverno, cilium,
longhorn, external-snapshotter, cert-manager, externaldns, gateway, coredns,
vpn-egress, monitoring, cnpg, keycloak, oauth2-proxy, kubevirt
platform-config/ platform CONFIGS — the custom resources of the CRDs installed above
(ClusterIssuers, Gateway, Kyverno policies, KubeVirt/CDI CRs, Keycloak CRs).
Split out because CRs and the CRDs they use cannot apply in one pass.

Status
Roadmap phases 0–6 are delivered and deployed on the dev cluster; Phase 7 (prod) is not
open — clusters/prod is a design-only overlay.
| Phase | Delivered |
|---|---|
| 0 Foundations | ServiceDefinition schema + renderer, Kyverno L0 gate, conformance harness, CI |
| 1 Cluster bring-up | 3-node k3s HA on Proxmox VE (192.168.1.50/.51/.52), Cilium, Flux, SOPS |
| 2 Platform core | Cilium · Longhorn · cert-manager (LE-prod wildcard) · ExternalDNS · Gateway API · split-horizon CoreDNS |
| 3 Egress / VPN | ADR-0015 node-level OpenVPN split-tunnel + Cilium egress-gateway steering + host kill-switch |
| 4 Observability | kube-prometheus-stack · Loki · Alloy · Alertmanager. Velero still blocked on OQ-BKP; image-automation authored but disabled |
| 5 IaaS | KubeVirt + CDI on real nested KVM; live-migratable RWX VM storage. The UniFi VM runs, but UniFi OS Server is not yet installed in the guest |
| 6 Identity + CI | Keycloak (Operator + CNPG) · oauth2-proxy forward-auth · Grafana OIDC · kubectl OIDC SSO with group→RBAC · in-cluster Gitea Actions merge gate |
Conformance: 36 / 51 requirements covered (70.6%), 15 gaps, 1 safety-critical gap
(R-STATE-02, Longhorn node-loss). Regenerate with ./conformance/run.sh --coverage-only;
the full report is conformance/_artifacts/coverage/coverage.md.
The running narrative — decisions, root causes, incidents, follow-ups — is
DECISIONS-LOG.md. It, not this table, is the authoritative record.
Working on this repo
Everything the gate needs is baked into the pinned dev container — do not install the toolchain on the host:
infra/devcontainer/dev.sh build # once
infra/devcontainer/dev.sh run make -C ci gate # the same gate CI runs
infra/devcontainer/dev.sh # interactive shell (sops, flux, kubectl, tofu, ansible)
The container mounts the repo at /work, your age keyring, and the sibling spec repo read-only
so the spec-immutability check can actually run. See
infra/devcontainer/README.md.
A green run prints MERGE GATE: PASS. The L2/L3 conformance layers stay SKIPPED unless
CLUSTER_AVAILABLE=true — the static gate never pretends to have run them.
