The committed L2/L3 Job pins `ghcr.io/kyverno/chainsaw:v0.2.12` with `command: ["./run.sh"]`. Those two lines cannot both be true. That image carries the chainsaw binary and essentially nothing else -- no bash, no python3, no kubectl, no git -- so the Job would have failed at exec of `./run.sh`, before a single test ran. Nothing in the tree said so. This adds the image that makes the Job runnable (plan docs/plans/l2-l3-conformance-ci-wiring.md section 3 item 1): * conformance/incluster/Containerfile -- bash + python3 + chainsaw + kubectl + git-core + tar/gzip/coreutils (the base64-tar results channel of item 3). Two-stage: a full Fedora fetches the release binaries and verifies kubectl's published sha256; the runtime layer is fedora-minimal and carries no downloader. Versions are --build-arg-injected from infra/devcontainer/versions.env (CHAINSAW_VERSION, KUBECTL_VERSION, FEDORA_VERSION) -- the single source of truth -- so the chainsaw and kubectl in the runner are the same pins the toolbox gate runs with. No new pin is invented here, and the ARG defaults are EMPTY so a build that forgets one fails loudly instead of baking a stale version. * conformance/incluster/build-image.sh -- builds it, PROVES the toolchain by executing it inside the image, and prints the digest. It never pushes: the registry credential is not an agent's to hold and publishing the artifact a fail-closed policy then trusts is an operator action. It prints the exact `podman push --digestfile ...` line instead. * conformance/versions.env -- CONFORMANCE_RUNNER_IMAGE, with the digest deliberately EMPTY and a loud block saying the operator fills it in after the push. Empty is a visible failure in whatever renders the Job; a guessed digest would be an ImagePullBackOff dressed up as a cluster fault. WHAT THE ADMISSION BOUNDARY FORCED, AND WHY THE IMAGE OBEYS IT platform/kyverno/admission/conformance-trigger-job-shape.yaml is Enforce + failurePolicy: Fail and it is the R-SEC-02 boundary. It is NOT modified here. Two of its clauses are load-bearing on the image itself: * `runAsNonRoot: true` with no explicit runAsUser means the kubelet rejects an image whose USER is a name it cannot resolve to a uid. So USER is NUMERIC (65532), not a friendly name. * The pod is readOnlyRootFilesystem and the policy admits only the `workspace` and `results` volumes -- there is no writable /tmp and one cannot be added without editing the boundary. So HOME, XDG_CACHE_HOME, XDG_CONFIG_HOME and TMPDIR all point into /workspace, and git's safe.directory config is written to /etc/gitconfig at BUILD time because a runtime --global write would fail. VERIFIED BY RUNNING IT, not by a successful build As uid 65532 with --read-only: bash 5.3.9, Python 3.14.7, git 2.55.0, kubectl v1.36.4 (client), chainsaw 0.2.12; / confirmed read-only, /workspace writable, uid confirmed non-zero. Then the real thing -- `./run.sh --lint`, `--coverage-only` and `--layer l2 --no-cluster` all rc 0 inside the image against this worktree, emitting coverage.md/.json and report.junit.xml. KNOWN LIMIT, FLAGGED NOT PAPERED OVER run.sh runs the selected offline L0/L1 checks before it touches the cluster for ANY selection that is not offline-only, and those checks shell out to flux, promtool, kyverno and kustomize, which this image does not carry. Baking the whole devcontainer toolchain into the runner would roughly double its size to re-run work ci/l0.sh and ci/l1.sh already did offline in the same CI run. So the Job must select the cluster-gated layers only (`--layer l2` / `--layer l3`); `--layer all` and a bare `--requirements <IDs>` would drag the L0 checks in and fail on a missing tool. `--layer l2` is verified above to resolve the offline selection to nothing. Choosing the Job's args belongs to T-6.1b; the constraint is documented in the Containerfile header and the incluster README rather than left for someone to discover from a pod log. chainsaw-job.yaml's `image:` is left stale ON PURPOSE -- there is no digest to put there yet, and the trigger renders that template per run (plan item 4). The README now says so instead of letting the placeholder read as a pin. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <[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).

Status
Roadmap phases 0–6 are delivered, and Phase 7 (Production Readiness) is OPEN and in
progress. clusters/prod is no longer a design-only overlay: prod is the live cluster, serving the
apex home.keithjackson.dev. The dev cluster was decommissioned on 2026-09-12 (full migration:
dev out, prod onto the apex — see the DECISIONS-LOG), so phases 0–6 are now exercised on prod
hardware rather than on Proxmox VMs.
Phase 7 exit criteria — prod runs the same config via the prod overlay; DR proven; monitoring + alerts live:
| criterion | state |
|---|---|
| prod runs the prod overlay | met — 3× mini-PC bare metal, one Flux tree, prod overlay only |
| monitoring + alerts live | met 2026-09-13 — see the note below; this was not true before that date |
| DR proven | R-STATE-03 PROVEN on prod 2026-09-14 — off-cluster restore from Cloudflare R2. R-STATE-02 (node-loss) is still dev-only |
DR restore is proven on prod. R-STATE-03 reads proven in --status as of 2026-09-14 —
the first requirement in this repo to reach that state. Both of its verifiers are recorded:
dr-restore (L3, run 20260914T021505Z-24b8111, sentinel DR_RESTORED_FROM_OFF_CLUSTER_BACKUP_OK)
and placeholder-guard-coupling (L0). The L3 drill seeds a canary on the replicated longhorn
class, backs the namespace and volume data up off-cluster, destroys every in-cluster copy
(namespace, PVC and PV), restores into a clean namespace, and asserts the restored PVC binds a
different PersistentVolume — so an in-cluster survival cannot pass as a restore.
What remains for Phase 7: R-STATE-02 (node-loss) is still proven only on the decommissioned
dev cluster. That drill takes a real node down on a live cluster, so it is a deliberate, scheduled
exercise rather than something to run in passing.
Read --coverage-only and --status as two different questions; the earlier PROVEN: 0 was not a
bug but the honest answer, because proofs are claims about a specific tree on a specific cluster.
| Phase | Delivered |
|---|---|
| 0 Foundations | ServiceDefinition schema + renderer, Kyverno L0 gate, conformance harness, CI |
| 1 Cluster bring-up | 3-node k3s HA, embedded etcd, kube-vip VIP, Cilium, Flux, SOPS. Originally Proxmox VMs; now 3× mini-PC bare metal (k3s-prod-1/2/3, 192.168.2.10/.11/.12, k3s v1.36.4+k3s1, Debian 13) |
| 2 Platform core | Cilium · Longhorn · cert-manager (LE-prod wildcard) · ExternalDNS · Gateway API · split-horizon DNS, both halves: CoreDNS for pods, and PiHole as the authoritative LAN resolver for ${BASE_DOMAIN} on udp/53 + tcp/53 at a pinned VIP (192.168.2.23 on prod). The LAN half was claimed from the start but did not exist until 2026-09-14 — PiHole's Service was ClusterIP :80/:4180, so LAN clients ran on hand-maintained per-client dnsmasq files |
| 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 unblocked 2026-09-13 — backs up to Cloudflare R2 (OQ-BKP closed; the velero-plugin-for-aws tagging incompatibility needed a pinned plugin). Longhorn has no backup target by decision: volume data is protected by Velero + kopia to R2. 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 |
| 7 Production readiness | IN PROGRESS (DR restore proven 2026-09-14; node-loss outstanding). Prod live on bare metal serving the apex; dev decommissioned; CNPG HA 3 instances with primaries spread one per node; NFS bulk media + legacy Nextcloud mounted; VPN egress on prod. Alerting made real 2026-09-13 (Longhorn, cert-manager, Flux and twelve app SLIs had all been unable to fire). Open: node-loss (R-STATE-02) re-proven on prod. |
Conformance: 51 / 51 requirements covered (100%), 0 gaps, 0 safety-critical gaps (closed
2026-09-13; R-C2-01/R-C2-02 were the last two). Regenerate with
./conformance/run.sh --coverage-only; the full report is
conformance/_artifacts/coverage/coverage.md.
Coverage is not proof. A requirement is covered when an executable test exists for it, and
PROVEN only when a recorded run of that test is in conformance/runs/ledger.jsonl at the current
SHA on the cluster it claims. Read both numbers: --coverage-only for the first, --status for the
second.
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.
