jakman85andClaude Opus 5 204f0ec28e WIP: durable qBittorrent WebUI credential
INCOMPLETE — preserved by the PM after the authoring agent hit the session
rate limit mid-task. Do not merge without finishing and gating it.

Problem: qBittorrent 5.1.2 has no WebUI\Username or WebUI\Password_PBKDF2 in
its config, so it mints a NEW temporary admin password on every process start
and announces it only on stdout. Two consequences, both real: the Sonarr and
Radarr download clients configured earlier will silently stop working at the
next pod restart, and a human operator has no stable login either.

Adds a SOPS-encrypted qbittorrent-bootstrap Secret (verified encrypted: both
values are ENC[AES256_GCM]) plus the catalog/rendered wiring to consume it.

WHAT REMAINS:
  - The agent's last note: the postStart hook works, but its output never
    reaches kubectl logs, so it was switching to the marker-file logging
    pattern gitea's hook already uses. That change is NOT here.
  - The Secret exists on prod as kubectl-client-side-apply, i.e. live-only;
    merging adopts it into git.
  - Sonarr's and Radarr's stored download-client passwords were to be updated
    to the durable value — NOT done, so the chain may break on restart until
    it is.
  - The required proof is unfinished: restart the pod, then show the WebUI
    accepts the credential AND both arrs still report isValid: true.

# qBittorrent DURABLE WebUI credential (WS-APPS). SOPS-encrypted (age), decrypted in-cluster by Flux.
#
# WHY THIS FILE EXISTS (defect, measured on prod 2026-09-13):
# qBittorrent.conf on the config PVC carried NEITHER `WebUI\Username` NOR
# `WebUI\Password_PBKDF2`. qBittorrent 5.x treats that as "no credential set" and generates a NEW
# random `admin` password on EVERY process start, announcing it ONLY on stdout ("A temporary
# password is provided for this session: ..."). Consequences, both real: (a) Sonarr's and Radarr's
# saved download-client credentials stop working at the next qbittorrent pod restart, silently
# breaking Completed Download Handling; (b) a human operator has no stable login at all and must
# read the pod log after every restart.
#
# HOW IT IS APPLIED: catalog/qbittorrent.yaml's app container reads BOTH keys below as env
# (QBT_WEBUI_USERNAME / QBT_WEBUI_PASSWORD) and its `lifecycle.postStart` hook — the same idiom as
# gitea's break-glass admin bootstrap — DERIVES the PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA512 digest qBittorrent stores
# and asserts both keys into /config/qBittorrent/qBittorrent.conf on EVERY container start, then
# verifies the WebUI actually accepts them. Level-triggered: a pod restart, a config-PVC restore
# from an older backup, and a rebuild-from-git onto an EMPTY PVC all end with this SAME
# credential, because the hook re-asserts it on every start rather than once.
#
# webui-username: the WebUI account name. qBittorrent has exactly ONE local account, and `admin` is
# the name its own temporary-password path uses, so keeping it avoids inventing a second identity.
# webui-password: the durable plaintext. It is ALSO what Sonarr's and Radarr's download-client
# entries store in their own databases (app state on their config PVCs, NOT in git — see
# DECISIONS-LOG), so rotating it here means re-pointing both arrs.
# Deliberately alphanumeric: it travels through a urlencoded WebAPI login body and two arr JSON
# payloads, and a shell/URL-special character in any of those is a bug waiting to happen.
#
# NEVER put a value in a comment: SOPS does NOT encrypt comments.
# Recover with: infra/devcontainer/dev.sh run sops -d apps/wave-0/qbittorrent-bootstrap-secret.sops.yaml
