docs: valia-sites runbook + dns.md CM mechanism + service-catalog entries
All checks were successful
ci/woodpecker/push/default Pipeline was successful

Runbook covers add/update/retire (one map entry; internal DNS now
cleans up after itself), content rules for Valia's folders, and the
failure modes incl. both token re-mint paths. dns.md superset-rule
paragraph now describes the declarative ConfigMap reconcile instead of
hand-added static CNAMEs. Catalog: new valia-sites row; stem95su row
notes its Pages cutover is parked on the 42.9MB stem_video.mp4
exceeding the 25MB Pages per-file cap.

# Valia sites — add / update / retire
Off-infra static sites authored by Valia (ADR-0018, CONTEXT.md "Valia site").
Serving: Cloudflare Pages. Freshness: the `valia-sites-sync` CronJob
(`valia-sites` ns) mirrors each Content folder every 10 minutes and deploys
only when the folder's manifest hash changed. Registry: `local.sites` in
`stacks/valia-sites/main.tf` — one entry per site drives everything (Pages
project, custom domain, public CNAME, internal split-horizon CNAME, sync).
Current sites: `bridge` (ОбУ „Отец Паисий“ — "мост"), `stem95su` (95. СУ STEM
board).
## Add a site
1. Valia shares the Drive folder with **vbarzin@gmail.com** (viewer is enough —
the pipeline is strictly read-only towards Drive).
2. Get the folder id from its URL (`drive.google.com/drive/folders/<ID>`).
3. Pick the **English** subdomain name (Viktor's call — CONTEXT.md naming rule).
4. Add one entry to `local.sites` in `stacks/valia-sites/main.tf`:
```hcl
<name> = {
folder_id = "<ID>"
src_path = "" # or "sub/folder" if servable files live deeper
entry_file = "index.html" # or whatever her main HTML file is called
manage_dns = true
}
```
5. Commit + push; CI applies. Within ~10 min the sync deploys content and the
site serves at `https://<name>.viktorbarzin.me` (custom-domain TLS takes
~510 min extra on first attach — CF returns 522 for the hostname until
then). Internal LAN/VLAN/pod resolution appears when the hourly
`technitium-ingress-dns-sync` next runs — trigger it early with:
`kubectl create job --from=cronjob/technitium-ingress-dns-sync valia-dns-now -n technitium`
## Content rules (what Valia's folder must look like)
- The **entry file** must exist — the sync stages a copy as `index.html` at
deploy time, so `/` works; the original filename keeps working too (deep
links survive). If the folder is empty or the entry file is missing, the
sync **skips the site and leaves it as-is** (never wipes a live site).
- Google-native files (Docs/Sheets) are **ignored** (`--drive-skip-gdocs`) —
only real files (`.html`, images, …) deploy. Gemini's HTML exports are fine.
- Per-file limit 25 MB (Cloudflare Pages), 20k files max — far beyond a
1-page site.
## Update a site
Nothing to do: Valia edits the folder, the site follows within ~10 minutes.
Force it early: `kubectl create job --from=cronjob/valia-sites-sync sync-now -n valia-sites`
## Rename / retire a site
Rename = retire + add (Pages projects can't be renamed). Retire:
1. Delete the entry from `local.sites`; commit + push. TF destroys the public
CNAME + custom domain + Pages project; the internal record is removed by
the next `technitium-ingress-dns-sync` run (its deletion pass drops any
internal `*.pages.dev` CNAME that left the `valia-sites-dns` ConfigMap —
scoped so it can never touch non-Pages records).
2. That's all — no manual DNS cleanup (the pre-ADR-0018 add-only gotcha is
fixed by the deletion pass).
## Failure modes / debugging
- **Visibility is failed-Job-only by choice** (ADR-0018): no alerts, no
notifications. Check: `kubectl get jobs -n valia-sites | tail`, logs of the
last `valia-sites-sync-*` pod.
- **Drive auth broken** (`FATAL … Drive list failed`): the shared
`secret/valia-sites.rclone_conf` token died. The GCP OAuth app
(`home-lab-1700868541205`) must stay published to "Production" or refresh
tokens expire weekly (same constraint as the old stem95su conf, which this
one was copied from). Re-mint and `vault kv patch secret/valia-sites
rclone_conf=@…`.
- **Wrangler auth broken**: `secret/valia-sites.cloudflare_pages_token` is a
SCOPED token (Pages Read+Write on the account, id
`355d2c9d11579bdad1e9498dafca30d5`) — re-mint via
`POST /user/tokens` with the Global API Key (`secret/platform`), patch
Vault. Do NOT put the Global API Key in the pod.
- **Site serves stale content**: check the state CM
(`kubectl get cm valia-sites-state -n valia-sites -o yaml`) — deleting a
site's key forces a redeploy on the next run.
- **`GUARD … skipping`** in logs: Valia's folder is empty or renamed the
entry file — the site deliberately kept its last content. Fix the folder or
update `entry_file`.
## History
- stem95su still serves from its ORIGINAL in-cluster stack (nginx + NFS +
its own rclone CronJob): its Pages cutover is **parked** (`manage_dns =
false`) because `stem_board.html` embeds the 42.9 MB `stem_video.mp4`,
over the 25 MB Pages per-file cap — the sync guard-skips it until the
video shrinks below 25 MB (or the site is deliberately kept in-cluster
and removed from the map). Once cut over: flip `manage_dns = true`,
set `dns_type = "none"` in `stacks/stem95su`, then retire that stack;
`secret/stem95su` becomes superseded by `secret/valia-sites`.
- bridge started as a hand-deployed wrangler experiment (2026-07-03, memory
id 7085) and was adopted into the stack the same day.
