The Keycloak OIDC postStart registration for gitea and nextcloud ran but never persisted, leaving `gitea admin auth list` empty and nextcloud's user_oidc with "No providers configured" despite the apps installing/ enabling and the client secret being present. Two distinct root causes, confirmed by running the registration manually against the live warm pods: - nextcloud: a QUOTING BUG, not a race. The OCC() wrapper runs `su -c "php occ $*"`, which word-split `--scope="openid email profile"` back into three tokens, so occ saw `email profile` as extra positional args -> "Too many arguments to user_oidc:provider" -> exit 1, swallowed by `|| echo failed`. Failed on EVERY boot. Fixed by running the provider call as ONE `su -c` with the scope single-quoted so www-data's shell keeps it a single argument; keep the OCC() wrapper only for single-token subcommands. - gitea: a first-boot RACE. The direct `admin auth add-oauth` persists once the app/network is warm (verified live), but fired too early at postStart and its failure was swallowed (`|| echo ... >&2`, exit 0). Hardening applied to both catalog sources (rendered into apps/wave-*): - wait (bounded ~90s) for the Keycloak discovery doc to return HTTP 200; - nextcloud also waits for `installed: true` AND `maintenance: false`; - register idempotently (create-or-update) then VERIFY the source/provider actually persisted, retrying the whole cycle (guards exit-0-but-nothing- stuck); - on give-up, log LOUDLY to stderr AND a marker file on the persistent volume (/data, /var/www/html) instead of swallowing — next failure is visible; - never crashloop: missing-secret guard retained, break-glass local admin stays usable.

apps
App-tier manifests, rendered from catalog/*.yaml ServiceDefinitions by catalog/render.py
and split into dependency-ordered waves (wave-<N>/).
- Each
wave-<N>/is reconciled by its own Flux Kustomizationapps-wave-<N>(clusters/base/apps-wave-<N>.yaml), whichdependsOnwave N-1 (wave 0 dependsOnplatform-config) and health-gates (wait: true) ONLY that wave. A crashlooping workload in a later wave can no longer stall an earlier wave or block new revisions. wave-<N>/kustomization.yamlandclusters/base/apps-wave-<N>.yamlare generated — runpython3 catalog/render.py --emit-wavesafter onboarding a service; do not hand-edit them.- Wave assignment = longest dependency-path depth over the catalog
dependencies:graph; a co-located CNPG database<svc>-dbis a leaf and always lands strictly below its consumer.
