jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 ca982864fc fix(platform): controllers/configs split so CRDs precede their CRs
Un-suspend deadlocked: the single platform Kustomization applies HelmReleases
(which register CRDs) AND custom resources of those CRDs (ClusterIssuer,
Certificate, Kyverno ClusterPolicies) in ONE pass. Flux's server-side apply
fails atomically ('no matches for kind ClusterIssuer') → nothing installs, so
the CRD-registering HelmReleases never run either. Classic ordering deadlock.

Fix (flux2 controllers/configs pattern, applies to dev+prod equally — no
R-ENV-02 divergence): add a platform-config Flux Kustomization (dependsOn
platform, wait) carrying the CRs; platform keeps only the controllers.
- New clusters/base/platform-config.yaml (path ./platform-config, substituteFrom
  cluster-vars, no decryption — no SOPS content); wired into base + apps now
  dependsOn platform-config (transitively waits for platform).
- platform-config/ references the CR files IN PLACE via ../platform/... (Flux
  builds LoadRestrictionsNone; Kyverno policies must stay under platform/kyverno/
  for the CI L0  gate). CR resources dropped from the platform
  component kustomizations (cert-manager, gateway, kyverno).
- Authored the missing Cilium L2 resources (were only a TODO): CiliumLoadBalancerIPPool
  (dev NAT 10.73.0.240-.250) + CiliumL2AnnouncementPolicy (ens*), so Gateway
  LoadBalancer listeners get a VIP. Prod range must be parameterized later.

Verified: platform build has zero CRs; platform-config build has 2 ClusterIssuers,
6 ClusterPolicies, Certificate, Gateway, both Cilium L2 CRs; dev/prod build; gate PASS.

clusters/

Flux entrypoints and the environment-overlay model (R-ENV-02, R-GITOPS-01/02/03).

Governing spec: docs/05-gitops-and-delivery.md, docs/02-environments-and-provisioning.md, ADR-0004 (Flux).

Phase 0 scaffolding only. These are structurally-correct stubs. No cluster exists — nothing here reconciles until WS-INFRA delivers a cluster and bootstraps Flux (roadmap Phase 1).

Layout — base + overlay (never fork the base)

clusters/
  base/                 shared Flux objects (one authoring, both environments)
    flux-system.yaml    GitRepository — the reconciliation source (bootstrap → Gitea)
    platform.yaml       Flux Kustomization → ./platform   (reconciles first)
    apps.yaml           Flux Kustomization → ./apps        (dependsOn platform)
    cluster-vars.yaml   ConfigMap of overlay knobs (BASE defaults)
    kustomization.yaml
  dev/                  ACTIVE build target — patches cluster-vars with dev values only
    kustomization.yaml
  prod/                 DESIGN-ONLY until roadmap Phase 7 — patches cluster-vars with prod values only
    kustomization.yaml

How the overlay model satisfies R-ENV-02

The base authors the reconciliation graph once. platform.yaml and apps.yaml (Flux Kustomizations) both declare postBuild.substituteFrom the cluster-vars ConfigMap. Platform and app manifests use ${TOKEN} placeholders for every value that legitimately differs between environments (issuer, replica counts, storage sizes, retention, node placement).

clusters/dev and clusters/prod differ ONLY by the values they patch into cluster-vars — they add no resources of their own and never copy/fork a base manifest. Promotion to prod (docs/02) is a change to the prod overlay's variables, nothing else.

How Flux is pointed at an environment

flux bootstrap (run by WS-INFRA in Phase 1) targets one environment's path per cluster:

# dev cluster
flux bootstrap ... --path=clusters/dev
# prod cluster (Phase 7 only — design-only until then)
flux bootstrap ... --path=clusters/prod

Bootstrap materializes the flux-system Kustomization that renders the chosen overlay, which pulls in base/ and applies the env-scoped cluster-vars.

Reconciliation order

GitRepository (flux-system)
        │
        ▼
Kustomization: platform  (./platform, substituteFrom cluster-vars)
        │  healthy
        ▼
Kustomization: apps      (./apps, dependsOn platform, substituteFrom cluster-vars)

apps dependsOn platform so CNI/storage/TLS/DNS/gateway exist before any workload reconciles.

TODOs (later phases — do not action in Phase 0)

  • Source cutover (WS-GITOPS, Phase 6): base/flux-system.yaml currently points at the bootstrap source. After Gitea is onboarded, repoint spec.url to gitea.home.keithjackson.dev and keep an off-cluster mirror (spec docs/05 "Source-of-truth", CONTRIBUTING.md).
  • SOPS decryption (WS-SEC, Phase 1): add spec.decryption.provider: sops (age secret name only, never plaintext) to the platform/apps Kustomizations once the age key is bootstrapped (ADR-0007).
  • Split ordered Flux Kustomizations if intra-platform ordering needs to be explicit (e.g. a separate cilium/longhorn Kustomization others dependsOn).
