A service that reads this repository's Gitea issues, decides what to do about each thread as the Program Manager persona, and runs one worker agent per assignment that authors a change, runs the merge gate and opens a pull request. It reacts to issue creation and to comments; the assignment and all correspondence travel through the issue thread and the PR. It authenticates with an Anthropic subscription token. It never pushes to main and never merges. Three choices carry the design, with alternatives recorded in docs/plans/: - it POLLS rather than receiving webhooks (Gitea's webhook SSRF guard, lost deliveries, and no inbound reach needed at all); - it keeps NO state: the trigger is "the newest thing in this thread was not written by me", so the issue thread is the state — no PVC, no backup obligation; - the model holds NO tools: its reply is one JSON object this code validates, so nothing in the path executes text. The boundary is platform/kyverno/admission/pm-agent-job-shape.yaml (Enforce, failurePolicy: Fail), not the RBAC: Kubernetes places no `use` check on serviceAccountName, so "may create Jobs" is "may run arbitrary code as the namespace's most privileged identity". Six rules admit only the committed shape, and the worker identity is bound to nothing with no token mounted, so there is nothing to escalate to. 28/28 offline Kyverno assertions. Nothing has run: the image has never been built or pushed, and both the image digest and the two credentials are deliberate placeholders. See the handoff entry's "What I did NOT verify".

catalog — ServiceDefinition entries (the onboarding surface)
One YAML file per service. Each file is a ServiceDefinition conforming to
../schemas/servicedefinition.schema.json. Adding or
editing a service here is the only onboarding step — the platform renders compute, storage, network
policy, egress, TLS, DNS, monitoring, and update policy from it (see
../schemas/renderer-contract.md). Serves R-GITOPS-02.
Source of truth for the initial catalog: spec
docs/13-service-catalog.md (14-service table +
SSO/egress/dependency intent).
Current examples
| File | docs/13 row | exposure | egress | auth | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
pihole.yaml |
6 | internal | internet | forward-auth | admin UI behind oauth2-proxy; config on Longhorn (DR-critical); also platform DNS |
keycloak.yaml |
0 | public | internet | native | the IdP itself (own admin login + MFA); PostgreSQL on Longhorn; DR-critical |
The remaining catalog services (plex, sonarr, radarr, jackett, seerr, nextcloud, minecraft, unifi, semaphore, kasm, gitea, qbittorrent) are onboarded in later phases; they follow the same schema and inherit every guarantee automatically.
Authoring rules
- Only
nameandsourceare mandatory; every other field defaults to docs/13's default posture (kind: container,exposure: internal,egress: internet,auth.mode: forward-auth, stable auto-update, DNS-only default-deny). Set a field only to override the default. - Any exposed UI must have an
authblock:forward-auth(default) oroidc, each with a non-emptyauth.groups;native/noneare documented exceptions only. - Irreplaceable state (
class: longhornconfigs/DBs) must setbackup.policyto an off-cluster schedule — neverreacquirable(R-STATE-03). Only bulk media may bereacquirable. - Shell braces must be escaped
$${...}. Anything rendered verbatim onto the workload — alifecyclepostStart script, anenvvalue — lands underapps/wave-<N>/, and everyapps-wave-<N>Flux Kustomization declarespostBuild.substituteFrom: cluster-vars. Flux runs envsubst over the WHOLE manifest at reconcile time, so an unescaped${VAR:-}meant for the shell is replaced with the empty string before the container ever starts (this silently killed gitea's and nextcloud's OIDC registration for days). Bare$VARand$(cmd)are left alone and need no escaping; a genuine environment knob is declared inclusters/base/cluster-vars.yamland written bare${KNOB}. Full contract:../clusters/base/apps-vms.yaml.render.pyREFUSES to emit a manifest that breaks this rule (Flux's strict substitution mode cannot: it deliberately exempts the${V:-}/${V:=x}/${V:?}default-operator forms).

This is the L0/L1 schema gate (spec docs/14); CI (.gitea/) runs it on every change.
Rendering — render.py (the ServiceDefinition renderer, T-0.3)
render.py compiles a ServiceDefinition into the concrete manifest set defined
by ../schemas/renderer-contract.md: a Namespace (with the
app-namespace/gateway-access labels), the default-deny baseline (R-NET-01), a
Deployment+Service or a KubeVirt VirtualMachine + CDI DataVolume (R-PLAT-02/03), PVCs
(R-STATE), one CiliumNetworkPolicy egress-allow per dependency (R-NET-02), the
egress-class steering label (R-NET-05), HTTPRoute(s) on the shared Gateway (R-TLS/R-DNS),
ServiceMonitor + SLI alerts (R-OBS-01), the Flux ImageRepository/ImagePolicy update plumbing
(R-UPD), and the auth-mode / backup wiring hints (R-IDP/R-STATE-03).

- Deterministic: identical input → byte-identical output (golden-diffable). The L1 render
conformance tests (
conformance/tests/l1-rendering/*) diff the output against committed goldens — run offline byconformance/run.sh --layer l1andci/l1.sh(no cluster). - How CI/Flux consume it: CI invokes
render.pyin the L1 stage; a GitOps flow renders--all catalog -o <rendered-dir>and Flux reconciles the rendered directory. Design choice (renderer-contract is silent on mechanism): a render-then-consume script is the simplest reproducible option — see the header ofrender.py. - Dependency: PyYAML (the renderer's single dependency; the conformance harness stays stdlib-only and only shells out to this script + diffs text).
