The first real enrolment failed:
$ ./infra/vpn-ingress/new-peer.sh keith-phone 2
new-peer.sh: 10.90.0.2/32 is already allocated ... Pick another octet.
Nothing was allocated -- peers.yaml had zero peers, as the pod's init
container reported (`0 peer(s)`). The duplicate-address check grepped the
whole file, and peers.yaml line 66 is a COMMENTED-OUT example stanza I wrote
containing literally `# AllowedIPs = 10.90.0.2/32`. So .2 -- the first
address anyone would ask for, and the one my own runbook uses as its example
-- was permanently un-allocatable, with a message asserting the opposite of
the truth.
Fixed on both sides, because either alone leaves the trap half-set:
* the check strips comment lines before matching, which is the correct
predicate rather than a patch: a real stanza's AllowedIPs line is never
commented, while the template and every peer's `# <name> — <owner>` label
always are.
* the example now uses placeholders that cannot match anything real
(`10.90.0.<octet>/32`, `<device-name>`), so a future grep cannot be fooled
by it either.
The bug class is worth naming: a documentation example that is byte-identical
to real data will eventually be parsed as real data. This is its third
instance in this component -- flux-postbuild-substitution flagged a `${...}`
written inside a comment explaining that hazard, and no-plaintext-secrets
flagged the .sops.yaml.example because a kustomization named it in a comment.
Make examples structurally unmatchable, not merely commented out.
Verified by running it: .2 now renders a profile (via the real
`sops -d | wg pubkey` path, which this also proves against the operator's
actual key for the first time), and an uncommented duplicate stanza is still
correctly refused.
No sensitive paths; merges on a green gate.

infra/ — node provisioning and the toolchain
OpenTofu (Proxmox VE) + cloud-init + Ansible bring up the 3-node k3s/Cilium dev cluster.
Spec: ../home-network-k3s/docs/02-environments-and-provisioning.md.
| Path | What |
|---|---|
tofu/ |
The "Create" stage: 3 cloud-init'd VMs on the Proxmox box (bpg/proxmox provider) |
cloud-init/ |
First-boot baseline shipped as a Proxmox user-data snippet |
ansible/ |
The "Baseline"/"Configure" stages: k3s HA, Cilium, kube-vip, the VPN egress gateway |
devcontainer/ |
The pinned toolchain (tofu, ansible, sops, age, flux, kubectl, helm and the whole CI gate toolchain) |
cluster.sh |
RETIRED — drove the old libvirt VMs; does not work against Proxmox |
PHASE1-STATUS.md |
Current state of the cluster and how to reconnect to it |
PHASE1-SCOPE.md |
Historical Phase-1 scoping doc (libvirt era — superseded) |
Where the cluster actually lives
The dev cluster is not on this workstation. It runs on a Proxmox VE host; the nodes sit on the Proxmox LAN and are reached across a pfSense NAT:
| Nodes | k3s-dev-1/2/3 at 192.168.1.50/.51/.52 — 6 vCPU, 24 GiB, Debian 13, k3s v1.36.4 |
| kube-API | kube-vip VIP 192.168.1.49:6443, reached from the workstation via NAT 192.168.2.50:6443 |
| Node SSH | pfSense NAT 192.168.2.102:2250/2251/2252 → node :22 (Ansible only) |
| Ingress VIP | 192.168.1.53 (Cilium L2, shared Gateway); .53–.60 reserved for LB VIPs |
The earlier libvirt/KVM cluster on 10.73.0.0/24 is retired. Any doc or command referencing
virsh, qemu:///system, or 10.73.0.x for the cluster is historical.
