The R-TLS-02 analysis and its drafted spec amendment were written on
feat/coverage-debt-paydown (b37defe, 2026-09-07) and lived ONLY in that branch's copy of
DECISIONS-LOG.md. That branch's tree is ~107 commits behind main and must never be merged,
so the amendment went out of view with it — the second time this decision has been raised
and lost. Recovered, re-checked against today's main, and written where it cannot vanish
with a branch.
THE SUBSTANCE IS UNCHANGED. R-TLS-02 says certificates MUST be automatically "issued,
renewed, and revoked without manual steps". Issuance and renewal hold. Revocation is not
implemented and is not implementable with the stack ADR-0006 selects: cert-manager has no
revoke-on-delete, no Certificate field requesting revocation, and no controller that calls
ACME revokeCert, and neither ADR-0006 nor docs/08 specifies a mechanism.
enableCertificateOwnerRef is NOT the remedy — it garbage-collects the Secret, which is
cleanup, not revocation — and it is a global controller flag that would drop the Gateway's
wildcard-home-tls Secret on any future Certificate rename/prune, so it needs its own risk
assessment rather than a side effect of a test task. Still not set.
WHAT CHANGED SINCE THE FIRST ESCALATION, and why it now matters more: R-TLS-02 is no
longer a COVERAGE gap (l0-static/tls-lifecycle-automated + l2-behavioral/
cert-lifecycle-automated both carry the label and main counts it covered), and the L0 check
is honest about the boundary in its own verdict line ("'revoked' is NOT proven at any
layer"). But the L2 test deletes a Certificate and requires its Secret to disappear, and
its failure message says "set enableCertificateOwnerRef: true ... (owner decision — WS-TEST
does not weaken the assertion instead)". That assertion is written to FAIL on a live run
until the owner decides. The decision is now arriving as a red test rather than as a
question, which is exactly how it gets weakened by whoever meets it next.
Two options are recorded verbatim for the architect, in the drafted preference order:
amend the requirement so revocation is an explicitly manual, documented break-glass action
(which also makes enableCertificateOwnerRef a CONSEQUENCE of the requirement), or keep the
text and record a reviewed DOCUMENTED_GAPS entry naming the clause, the reason and the
removal condition.
NOT APPLIED, and not appliable by an agent: the spec repo is read-only under R-TEST-06.
This is a request for a human decision, stated plainly as one.

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).
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.

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.
