jakman85andClaude Opus 4.8 cbc2301b30 docs: reconcile docs/comments with post-upgrade cluster state
Text-only cleanup after the upgrade campaign. Updates stale version
strings, prose, and comments to the verified current facts; no
Kubernetes behavior or version pins changed except the kubectl
toolchain bump (below).

Verified facts applied: k3s v1.36.4+k3s1, Debian 13 trixie,
Cilium 1.20.1 / Gateway API v1.6.1, Longhorn 1.12.1, node RAM 24 GiB,
dedicated virtio2 SSD etcd disk per node, Velero chart 12.x / v1.18,
Grafana 13.2.0.

- Version strings across infra/ and platform/ READMEs + comments
- kubectl toolchain 1.31.4 -> 1.36.4 (devcontainer/ci/conformance
  versions.env; 1.31 vs a 1.36 cluster exceeded the +-1 skew)
- Retired-single-apps-Kustomization refs -> apps-wave-0/1/2 + apps-vms
  with per-wave SOPS decryption (flux/clusters docs + bootstrap.sh)
- COMPLETED/historical banners on the three executed plan docs
- Resolved TODO(WS-SEC) markers -> Renovate-maintained ranges
- Appended dated DECISIONS-LOG entry (2026-08-30) superseding the
  2026-08-26 LIVE STATE line

Left as revalidation items (not blind-edited): external-snapshotter
v8.2.0 vs 1.36, Cilium ext_authz/forward-auth relevance under 1.20.1,
conformance ImageVolume feature-gate assertions under 1.36.

platform/

Cluster-wide platform services, Flux-managed (R-PLAT-01, R-GITOPS-01/02/03). Reconciled by the platform Flux Kustomization defined in clusters/base/platform.yaml, before apps/.

Governing spec: docs/05-gitops-and-delivery.md, docs/01-architecture-overview.md.

Phase 0 scaffolding only. Every component here is a structurally-correct stub — a Flux HelmRelease and/or Kustomization with a values placeholder, a README citing the governing ADR/spec, and TODOs for the phase that fills it in. No cluster exists; nothing reconciles yet. Do not add working config, secrets, or provisioning under Phase 0 (spec AGENTS.md §1/§5/§6, roadmap/phases.md).

Reconciliation flow (how a change lands)

git (source of truth)
   │  operator PR → CI (lint · schema · Kyverno L0 · Chainsaw) → merge to tracked branch
   ▼
Flux GitRepository (clusters/base/flux-system.yaml)
   ▼
Flux Kustomization "platform"  → ./platform  (this dir)     ── substituteFrom cluster-vars ──┐
   │  prune=true (drift correction, R-GITOPS-03) · wait=true                                  │ R-ENV-02
   ▼                                                                                          │
Flux Kustomization "apps"      → ./apps  (dependsOn platform) ─ substituteFrom cluster-vars ──┘

Git is authoritative; the cluster conforms to git and drift is auto-corrected (R-GITOPS-01/03). Manual kubectl apply of platform state is prohibited (spec AGENTS.md §5).

The dev ↔ prod overlay model (R-ENV-02)

Platform manifests are authored once. Every value that legitimately differs between environments is a ${TOKEN} resolved from the cluster-vars ConfigMap via Flux postBuild.substituteFrom. The clusters/dev and clusters/prod overlays differ only by the values they patch into cluster-vars (issuer, replica counts, storage sizes, retention). See clusters/README.md. Base manifests are never forked per environment.

⚠️ INTEGRATION TODO(PM): wire kyverno into the platform kustomization

platform/kyverno/ is authored by a different agent (the policy engineer, WS-TEST). This workstream did not create any files under platform/kyverno/ and must not.

platform/kustomization.yaml intentionally omits - kyverno. Once the policy engineer's files land, the PM must add - kyverno to that list (recommended first, so policies are present before other components reconcile). The line is present as a commented TODO in the kustomization.

Secrets

Every secret referenced below (Cloudflare API token, Velero backup-target creds, Keycloak admin/DB, oauth2-proxy cookie/client secrets) is referenced by name only and will be committed SOPS-encrypted (WS-SEC, ADR-0007). No plaintext secret appears anywhere in this tree.

Cross-workstream contracts surfaced by these stubs

  • cilium (WS-NET ↔ WS-INFRA): Cilium's initial CNI install is done by Ansible at cluster bootstrap (docs/02, Phase 1). The HelmRelease here manages Cilium config thereafter; its Helm values MUST match the Ansible bootstrap values (kubeProxyReplacement, k8sServiceHost/Port, API server host) or reconciliation will fight the bootstrap. Contract owner: WS-NET + WS-INFRA.
  • gateway + cert-manager + externaldns (WS-NET + WS-SEC): the shared Gateway listener, the wildcard *.home.keithjackson.dev cert, and the ExternalDNS source all reference each other; they form the "Issuer + Gateway TLS" interface in roadmap/workstreams.md.
  • image-automation (WS-UPDATE): this dir holds only the cluster-wide ImageUpdateAutomation + git write-back. Per-service ImageRepository/ImagePolicy are rendered from each ServiceDefinition's update block (WS-GITOPS/WS-UPDATE), living with apps/.
  • keycloak/oauth2-proxy (WS-SEC): the SSO/auth contract (auth block → Keycloak client / oauth2-proxy protection) is owned by WS-SEC; these are placeholders pending that contract.
