jakman85andClaude Opus 5 82aff4d053 feat(apps): attach the media library and the legacy Nextcloud dataset over NFS
plex, sonarr, radarr and nextcloud each gain one bulk volume. Authored in the catalog and
re-rendered, never hand-edited into apps/ (render-golden: 10/10). Layout, the export change the
operator must apply, the uid analysis and the validation probes are in docs/BULK-NFS-STORAGE.md;
everything there was measured on the host over read-only SSH, not assumed.

WHAT THE LAYOUT TURNED OUT TO BE, AND WHY IT DECIDED THE DESIGN
/mnt/Storage/plex holds movies/ tv/ photos/ AND downloads/ as SIBLINGS in one dataset — so the
arrs' import source and their libraries are one filesystem on the server, and the download client's
completed folders are already named radarr/ and tv-sonarr/. The k3s arrs are joining a tree an arr
stack has been driving for a long time.

That sibling fact is the whole argument for the arrs mounting the export ROOT rather than a
subPath per directory. Sonarr and Radarr import by hardlinking or atomically renaming, both
same-filesystem operations, and to the kernel "same filesystem" means SAME MOUNT. Two subPath
mounts of one export are two mounts: link() across them returns EXDEV regardless of what the
server knows, and the arrs do not fail loudly — they degrade to copy-then-delete, rewriting every
file over NFS and destroying the seeding copy. The smallest subtree containing both tv/ and
downloads/ IS the export root, so the root mount is the MINIMAL mount that preserves hardlinks.
Least privilege bounded below by a hard requirement. The cost is stated, not hidden: sonarr can
also write /media/movies.

  plex       /mnt/Storage/plex      -> /media                 ro   ReadOnlyMany
  sonarr     /mnt/Storage/plex      -> /media                 rw   ReadWriteMany
  radarr     /mnt/Storage/plex      -> /media                 rw   ReadWriteMany
  nextcloud  /mnt/Storage/nextcloud -> /mnt/legacy-nextcloud  ro   ReadOnlyMany  (subPath: nextcloud)

Plex is read-only because it indexes and streams; every write on that tree belongs to the arrs, and
saying so removes Plex from the set of things that can damage 8.33 T. All three media consumers use
the SAME mountPath deliberately: when qbittorrent is eventually given this export, the arrs and the
download client will already agree on absolute paths, which is the other precondition for hardlinked
imports.

*** /media AND NOT /data — A COLLISION CAUGHT WHILE RENDERING. *** The arrs' Longhorn config PVC
renders at the renderer default /data/config. A media mount at /data is mounted OVER it and MASKS
the config volume: the pod comes up with its app database shadowed by an 8 T media tree. That
discovery also exposed a SEPARATE PRE-EXISTING BUG, reported and deliberately NOT fixed here:
LinuxServer arr images run with -data=/config, so /data/config is very likely the wrong home for
that PVC and the app has been writing its EPHEMERAL layer — the exact failure catalog/plex.yaml's
mountPath comment records already having been bitten by. Plex was fixed; sonarr, radarr, qbittorrent
and jackett were not. Fixing it starts those apps from an empty config volume, so it needs its own
change with the operator present. This change does not make it worse.

UID/GID — THE FAILURE THIS TIER ALWAYS HAS
The export is sec=sys + no_root_squash, so the client's numeric uid passes through verbatim and the
server's ownership is the entire access story. The tree is 0755 owned 1000:3000, so ONLY uid 1000
can write it. LinuxServer images default to 911. Without intervention sonarr and radarr would have
mounted cleanly, gone Ready, and failed EVERY import with EACCES.

And fsGroup cannot fix that — the in-tree NFS plugin does NO ownership management, so
podSecurityContext.fsGroup is a no-op on an NFS volume. Reaching for it is how this gets
misdiagnosed. So PUID=1000/PGID=3000 are added to both arrs (PGID 3000 keeps what they write
group-readable to the live non-k3s consumers of the same export), and fsGroup: 3000 is added for
the LONGHORN config PVC only, so changing PUID does not depend on the image re-chowning /config.
plex already runs as 1000 and reads a 0755 tree; nextcloud reads as www-data. Neither needs work.

NEXTCLOUD IS MOUNTED READ-ONLY, WHICH IS A DEVIATION FROM THE BRIEF — ON EVIDENCE
The task said nextcloud writes. The dataset says otherwise: of 270 G, 267 G is config_backup/, the
rest is config/ (103 M) and config_old/ (3.4 G). There is NO data/ directory. This is the OLD
non-k3s instance's configuration plus a backup blob — an archive — and that instance is STILL LIVE
on it (exported rw to 192.168.1.6 and .5, which the operator has said must stay active). Two
Nextclouds writing one instance's config directory, each with its own database and therefore its own
oc_filecache, is unrecoverable corruption. "Do not grant more than needed" lands on ro, and ro is
the trivially reversible choice. If the intent is in fact a MIGRATION, that is a larger and more
deliberate change than a mount; the one-line flip is documented.

Read-only for nextcloud can additionally be enforced SERVER-side (only nextcloud consumes that
dataset from k3s), and the sharenfs value in the doc uses ro= for the k3s clients. The media tree
cannot: plex and the arrs may land on any node, so the server sees the same addresses for reader
and writers. Plex's ro is therefore a client-side guarantee — stated as a limitation, not left
implied.

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 (spec AGENTS.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 into main (spec CONTRIBUTING.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; the full report is conformance/_artifacts/coverage/coverage.md.

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.
