The drift detector merged in #11 was inert and would have stayed inert silently. WHAT HAPPENED. infra/gitea/set-ci-token.sh minted a token and PUT it to the repo Actions secret GITEA_SETTINGS_TOKEN. Gitea RESERVES the `GITEA_` prefix for secret names -- exactly as GitHub reserves `GITHUB_` -- and rejects that PUT with: HTTP 400 {"message":"invalid secret name"} The script sent the PUT to /dev/null and printed "==> stored." unconditionally, and `curl -sS` exits 0 on an HTTP error, so it reported success for a store that never happened. Measured afterwards: the token existed in the user's token list, and the repo's secret list was EMPTY. ci/gitea-settings.sh would have skipped on every CI run forever, and with REQUIRE_GITEA_SETTINGS=true it would instead have BLOCKED EVERY PR -- including the one fixing it. Three changes: * the secret is SETTINGS_API_TOKEN; ci/gitea-settings.sh reads it, keeping GITEA_SETTINGS_TOKEN as a local-run fallback; * set-ci-token.sh checks the PUT's HTTP status AND reads the secret back, refusing to claim success otherwise. That missing verification is the actual defect -- the wrong name was just what it hid; * gate.yml maps the secret and ENABLES REQUIRE_GITEA_SETTINGS. WHY ENABLING IT HERE IS SAFE: this PR's own CI run is the proof. If the stage were still skipping, REQUIRE turns that into a failure and this PR goes RED rather than merging. Green means the token resolved and live Gitea matched infra/gitea/expected-branch-protection.json. Verified locally before pushing: REQUIRE=true, token present -> MERGE GATE: PASS REQUIRE=true, no token -> gitea-settings SKIPPED -> BLOCKED (not a silent skip) The secret is already stored and read back as present, so CI has what it needs.

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.
