Prod reconciled from http://192.168.2.132:3000 — a podman container on the operator's WORKSTATION, holding a DHCP lease on WIFI. Production's source of truth was a laptop: a lease change or a closed lid stalls all reconciliation. Dev was pointed there too (deliberately, to break a strand risk during its DNS migration), so BOTH clusters depended on it simultaneously. Prod now reconciles from https://gitea.prod.home.keithjackson.dev/... — the Gitea prod itself runs, which apps-wave-0 has been serving for 28h. THE SELF-REFERENCE IS THE WHOLE DIFFICULTY, and it is why this is a commit rather than a kubectl patch. The root Kustomization renders ./clusters/prod, which CONTAINS the patch that sets GitRepository.spec.url — so a live patch is reverted on the next reconcile unless the AUTHORED value moves with it. Dev hit the identical trap on 2026-09-05. The ordered cutover: 1. push the repo to prod's Gitea (18 branches, refs verified identical, 499 commits of history — a real move, not a shallow copy); 2. fast-forward prod Gitea's `main` toc8c1d29, the EXACT commit prod was already running, so swapping the source changed nothing else. Its main had been at4809199, and repointing to that would have ROLLED PROD BACKWARDS, undoing the per-environment BASE_DOMAIN work and sending prod at the apex — the collision with live dev that two days of work exists to prevent; 3. live-patch spec.url to open a window (source changed, content identical: Ready=True at the same revision on the first poll); 4. land THIS commit through that window so the authored value agrees. VERIFIED FROM INSIDE PROD, not from the workstation: a throwaway pod resolved gitea.prod.home.keithjackson.dev through in-cluster CoreDNS to the Gateway VIP (192.168.2.20) and cloned main over the public Let's Encrypt cert with NO CA supplied. That exercises split-horizon DNS, the Gateway, Gitea and TLS on the pod network — the path Flux actually uses. A workstation clone proves none of it. The bootstrap Gitea is retained as a recovery path, not deleted (bootstrap/gitea/bootstrap-gitea.sh). Dev still reconciles from it on branch `dev-live` and returns to its own Gitea at step D4 of the §10a migration runbook. Refs R-GITOPS-01, R-ENV-02. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <[email protected]>
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.
apps/ application tier, reconciled as dependency-ordered WAVES:
wave-0/ wave-1/ wave-2/ rendered container apps (see DESIGN-waves.md)
vms/ KubeVirt VirtualMachines (non-gating tier)
catalog/ ServiceDefinition entries (the onboarding surface) + render.py
schemas/ ServiceDefinition JSON Schema + renderer contract
clusters/ Flux entrypoints + dev/ and prod/ overlays
conformance/ Chainsaw behavior/conformance suite + harness + coverage report
ci/ the gate as scripts (lint · schema · Kyverno L0 · L1 render · decision)
.gitea/ Gitea Actions CI running that gate on an in-cluster runner
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;

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.
