The operator could not log in to Headlamp on prod: Get "https://keycloak.home.keithjackson.dev/realms/homelab/.well-known/openid-configuration": dial tcp 192.168.1.53:443: i/o timeout ROOT CAUSE: OIDC_ISSUER_URL and OIDC_CALLBACK_URL were keys INSIDE the SOPS-encrypted headlamp-oidc-credentials.sops.yaml. Flux's ${BASE_DOMAIN} postBuild substitution rewrites the RENDERED manifest text and can never reach inside ciphertext, so both values were frozen at the apex `home.keithjackson.dev` in BOTH environments. Dev IS the apex, so dev looked correct; prod (BASE_DOMAIN = prod.home.keithjackson.dev) therefore pointed at dev's Keycloak at 192.168.1.53 — on the dev LAN behind pfSense, unroutable from prod's 192.168.2.0/24. FIX: an issuer URL and a callback URL are PUBLIC. Move both out of the Secret into the HelmRelease's spec.values.env, written with ${BASE_DOMAIN} so substitution resolves them per environment. The Secret keeps only what is genuinely secret or environment-invariant (OIDC_CLIENT_SECRET, OIDC_CLIENT_ID, OIDC_SCOPES). Exactly ONE source per variable: the chart renders `env:` after `envFrom:`, and an explicit env entry silently WINS over the same name from envFrom — so the two sets must not overlap, and they no longer do. The five load-bearing names the chart's $(...) args require (OIDC_CLIENT_ID/CLIENT_SECRET/ISSUER_URL/SCOPES/CALLBACK_URL) are all still delivered; verified by rendering platform/headlamp per overlay, `flux envsubst --strict`, and `helm template` of chart 0.41.0 against the substituted values. Side effect, deliberate: naming OIDC_CALLBACK_URL in `env:` makes the chart finally EMIT `-oidc-callback-url=$(OIDC_CALLBACK_URL)` — it gates that arg on the value being set via `env:`/`config.oidc`, which a Secret key alone never tripped, so the Secret's callback URL had been dead weight. The value is byte-identical to the single redirectUri registered on the Keycloak `headlamp` client (also ${BASE_DOMAIN}-templated), the only URI Keycloak accepts. [parity] holds: prod's kube-apiserver oidc-issuer-url is an install-time k3s flag from k3s_base_domain=prod.home.keithjackson.dev, which is exactly what Headlamp now uses.

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

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.devcert, and the ExternalDNS source all reference each other; they form the "Issuer + Gateway TLS" interface inroadmap/workstreams.md. - image-automation (WS-UPDATE): this dir holds only the cluster-wide ImageUpdateAutomation +
git write-back. Per-service
ImageRepository/ImagePolicyare rendered from each ServiceDefinition'supdateblock (WS-GITOPS/WS-UPDATE), living withapps/. - keycloak/oauth2-proxy (WS-SEC): the SSO/auth contract (
authblock → Keycloak client / oauth2-proxy protection) is owned by WS-SEC; these are placeholders pending that contract.
