dns: pfSense forward-zone for viktorbarzin.me, nodes fully stock [ci skip]

Round 3 of the forgejo-pull hairpin fix (per Viktor: no per-node
customization — split-brain lives in the DNS infra):

- pfSense Unbound domain override viktorbarzin.me -> Technitium
  10.0.20.201 (applied via php write_config, backup on-box). Every
  Unbound client on every VLAN now gets the internal split-horizon
  answers (live Traefik IP via apex CNAME) with zero per-host config.
- CoreDNS carve-out (TF, applied): dedicated viktorbarzin.me:53 block —
  forgejo pinned to Traefik ClusterIP via data source (pods cannot reach
  the ETP=Local LB IP pfSense now returns), all other .me names kept on
  public resolvers (pods' pre-existing behavior). Replaces the .:53
  forgejo rewrite.
- Removed the same-day resolved routing-domain drop-ins from all 7 nodes;
  node5/6 link DNS repointed Technitium -> pfSense (netplan + qm 205/206)
  for fleet parity; cloud-init no longer writes any DNS drop-ins.
- Docs: dns.md, pfsense-unbound runbook (override + rollback), registry
  bullet, post-mortem final-architecture addendum.

Verified: nodes resolve forgejo -> .203 via pfSense, crictl pull OK,
pods resolve forgejo -> ClusterIP / others -> public, mail record works,
.lan zone unaffected.

- **DNS**: `dns_type = "proxied"` (Cloudflare CDN) or `"non-proxied"` (direct A/AAAA). DNS records are auto-created — no need to edit `config.tfvars`. Smoke-test target: `echo.viktorbarzin.me` (auth=public, header-reflecting backend).
- **Anubis PoW challenge** (`modules/kubernetes/anubis_instance/`): per-site reverse proxy that issues a 30-day JWT cookie after a tiny PoW solve. Use for **public, content-bearing sites without app-level auth** (blog, docs, wikis, static landing pages). Pattern: declare `module "anubis" { source = "../../modules/kubernetes/anubis_instance"; name = "X"; namespace = ...; target_url = "http://<backend>.<ns>.svc.cluster.local" }`, then in `ingress_factory` set `service_name = module.anubis.service_name`, `port = module.anubis.service_port`, `anti_ai_scraping = false`. Shared ed25519 key in Vault `secret/viktor` -> `anubis_ed25519_key`; cookie scoped to `viktorbarzin.me` so one solve covers all Anubis-fronted subdomains. **DO NOT put Anubis in front of Git/API/WebDAV/CLI endpoints** — clients without JS can't solve PoW. **Replicas default to 1** because Anubis stores in-flight challenges in process memory; a challenge issued by pod A and solved against pod B errors with `store: key not found` (HTTP 500). Bumping replicas requires wiring a shared Redis store (TODO). For path-level carve-outs (e.g. wrongmove has `/` behind Anubis but `/api` direct, blog has `/net-diag.sh` direct), declare a second `ingress_factory` with `ingress_path = ["/<path>"]` pointing at the bare backend service. Active on: blog (except `/net-diag.sh`), www, kms, travel, f1, cc, json, pb (privatebin), home (homepage), wrongmove (UI only). See `.claude/reference/patterns.md` "Anti-AI Scraping" for full layering.
- **Docker images**: Always build for `linux/amd64`. SHA-tag rule is being phased out — see `docs/plans/2026-05-16-auto-upgrade-apps-{design,plan}.md`. New model: CI pushes `:latest` (optionally also `:<8-char-sha>` for traceability), Keel polls and triggers rollouts. Cache-staleness concern from the old rule is resolved at the nginx layer (URL-split — manifests pass through, blobs cached). Until Phase 1 of the migration completes (per the plan), follow the SHA-tag rule for new services to match existing pattern.
- **Private registry**: `forgejo.viktorbarzin.me/viktor/<name>` (Forgejo packages, OAuth-style PAT auth). Use `image: forgejo.viktorbarzin.me/viktor/<name>:<tag>` + `imagePullSecrets: [{name: registry-credentials}]`. Kyverno auto-syncs the Secret to all namespaces. **Kubelet pulls** are kept off the hairpin by a systemd-resolved routing domain on every node (`/etc/systemd/resolved.conf.d/viktorbarzin.conf`: `DNS=10.0.20.201` + `Domains=~viktorbarzin.me`) — `*.viktorbarzin.me` lookups go to Technitium, whose split-horizon zone CNAMEs every ingress host (auto-synced hourly by `technitium-ingress-dns-sync`) to the zone apex whose A record tracks the **live** Traefik LB IP (canary: `viktorbarzin-apex-probe`, alerts ViktorBarzinApexDrift). No hardcoded service IPs on nodes; the devvm uses the same drop-in. The containerd `hosts.toml` mirror (`[host."https://10.0.20.203"]`, `skip_verify = true`) still exists but is **vestigial** — it can NOT keep pulls internal on its own: Traefik routes by Host/SNI and 404s the mirror's bare-IP requests, and the registry's Bearer auth realm is the absolute `https://forgejo.viktorbarzin.me/v2/token` URL fetched outside the mirror — without internal DNS every fresh pull degrades to public DNS → hairpin → intermittent `dial tcp 176.12.22.76:443: i/o timeout` ImagePullBackOff (tuya-bridge 7.5h outage 2026-06-10, tripit 2026-06-09; see `docs/post-mortems/2026-06-10-tuya-bridge-forgejo-pull-hairpin.md`). **Do not put public servers in the nodes' global resolved `DNS=` set** — they merge with the routing-domain set and race it (this was the node5/6 cloud-init `global-dns.conf` bug; now demoted to `FallbackDNS=`). In-cluster pods (notably Woodpecker buildkit build pods pushing images) resolve `forgejo.viktorbarzin.me` via a CoreDNS `rewrite name exact ... traefik.traefik.svc.cluster.local` (Corefile in `stacks/technitium/modules/technitium/main.tf`), since they use neither the node routing domain nor the containerd mirror; without it, buildkit pushes intermittently timed out on the public-IP hairpin (added 2026-06-04, beads code-yh33). **Was `.200` until 2026-06-01** — Traefik's 2026-05-30 move to its dedicated `.203` left the mirror pointing at the now-dead `.200:443`, silently breaking every *fresh* forgejo pull; a future LB renumber is now handled by DNS (apex record + drift probe) — only the vestigial hosts.toml literal would go stale. DNS drop-in + mirror source lives in `modules/create-template-vm/{cloud_init.yaml,k8s-node-containerd-setup.sh}` (new nodes) and `scripts/setup-forgejo-containerd-mirror.sh` (existing nodes). Push-side: viktor PAT in Vault `secret/ci/global/forgejo_push_token` (Forgejo container packages are scoped per-user; only the package owner can push, ci-pusher cannot write to viktor/*). Pull-side: cluster-puller PAT in Vault `secret/viktor/forgejo_pull_token`. Retention CronJob (`forgejo-cleanup` in `forgejo` ns, daily 04:00) keeps newest 10 versions + always `:latest` + any buildkit `*cache*` tag (so `--cache-from`/`--cache-to` refs survive retention — added 2026-06-09); **went live (DRY_RUN=false) 2026-06-09** after verifying 0 running images on the delete set — the registry PVC is at its 50Gi autoresize ceiling on the HDD (we did NOT move it to SSD, see beads code-oflt), so live retention is what keeps it from filling. Integrity probed every 15min by `forgejo-integrity-probe` in `monitoring` ns (catalog walk + manifest HEAD on every blob). See `docs/plans/2026-05-07-forgejo-registry-consolidation-{design,plan}.md` for the migration history. Pull-through caches for upstream registries (DockerHub, GHCR, Quay, k8s.gcr, Kyverno) stay on the registry VM at `10.0.20.10` ports 5000/5010/5020/5030/5040 — the old port-5050 R/W private registry was decommissioned 2026-05-07.
- **Private registry**: `forgejo.viktorbarzin.me/viktor/<name>` (Forgejo packages, OAuth-style PAT auth). Use `image: forgejo.viktorbarzin.me/viktor/<name>:<tag>` + `imagePullSecrets: [{name: registry-credentials}]`. Kyverno auto-syncs the Secret to all namespaces. **Kubelet pulls** are kept off the hairpin **at the resolver, with zero node-side DNS config**: pfSense Unbound carries a domain override forwarding the whole `viktorbarzin.me` zone to Technitium (added 2026-06-10, `docs/runbooks/pfsense-unbound.md`), whose split-horizon zone CNAMEs every ingress host (auto-synced hourly by `technitium-ingress-dns-sync`) to the zone apex whose A record tracks the **live** Traefik LB IP (canary: `viktorbarzin-apex-probe`, alerts ViktorBarzinApexDrift). Nodes are stock — link DNS `10.0.20.1 94.140.14.14` via `qm set --nameserver`, no `/etc/hosts` pins, no resolved drop-ins (two same-day interim approaches on 2026-06-10 were removed the same day). The containerd `hosts.toml` mirror (`[host."https://10.0.20.203"]`, `skip_verify = true`) still exists but is **vestigial** — it can NOT keep pulls internal on its own: Traefik routes by Host/SNI and 404s the mirror's bare-IP requests, and the registry's Bearer auth realm is the absolute `https://forgejo.viktorbarzin.me/v2/token` URL fetched outside the mirror — without internal DNS every fresh pull degrades to public DNS → hairpin → intermittent `dial tcp 176.12.22.76:443: i/o timeout` ImagePullBackOff (tuya-bridge 7.5h outage 2026-06-10, tripit 2026-06-09; see `docs/post-mortems/2026-06-10-tuya-bridge-forgejo-pull-hairpin.md`). **In-cluster pods are deliberately carved out** — the Traefik LB IP is ETP=Local and unreachable from pods, so CoreDNS has a dedicated `viktorbarzin.me:53` block (Corefile in `stacks/technitium/modules/technitium/main.tf`): forgejo pinned to Traefik's **ClusterIP** (TF-interpolated from the live Service; replaces the old `rewrite ... traefik.traefik.svc.cluster.local` in `.:53`), all other `.me` names forwarded to `8.8.8.8/1.1.1.1` (pods keep public answers; beads code-yh33). Do NOT remove that block while the pfSense override exists. **Was `.200` until 2026-06-01** — Traefik's 2026-05-30 move to its dedicated `.203` left the mirror pointing at the now-dead `.200:443`, silently breaking every *fresh* forgejo pull; a future LB renumber is now handled by DNS (apex record + drift probe) — only the vestigial hosts.toml literal would go stale. Mirror source lives in `modules/create-template-vm/k8s-node-containerd-setup.sh` (new nodes) and `scripts/setup-forgejo-containerd-mirror.sh` (existing nodes; also cleans up the legacy 2026-06-10 node-DNS customization).

- **LinuxServer.io containers**: `DOCKER_MODS` runs apt-get on every start — bake slow mods into a custom image (`RUN /docker-mods || true` then `ENV DOCKER_MODS=`). Set `NO_CHOWN=true` to skip recursive chown that hangs on NFS mounts.
- **Node memory changes**: When changing VM memory on any k8s node, update kubelet `systemReserved`, `kubeReserved`, and eviction thresholds accordingly. Config: `/var/lib/kubelet/config.yaml`. Template: `stacks/infra/main.tf`. Current values: systemReserved=512Mi, kubeReserved=512Mi, evictionHard=500Mi, evictionSoft=1Gi.
- **Node OS disk tuning** (in `stacks/infra/main.tf`): kubelet `imageGCHighThresholdPercent=70` (was 85), `imageGCLowThresholdPercent=60` (was 80), ext4 `commit=60` in fstab (was default 5s), journald `SystemMaxUse=200M` + `MaxRetentionSec=3day`.
