Main container crashes with "mkdir: cannot create directory '/opt/data':
Permission denied". Init container writes fine but main container runs
with different fsGroup/runAsUser. Scaling to 0 until the PVC permission
model is reworked.

## Context
Wave 3B-continued: the Goldilocks VPA dashboard (stacks/vpa) runs a Kyverno
ClusterPolicy `goldilocks-vpa-auto-mode` that mutates every namespace with
`metadata.labels["goldilocks.fairwinds.com/vpa-update-mode"] = "off"`. This
is intentional — Terraform owns container resource limits, and Goldilocks
should only provide recommendations, never auto-update. The label is how
Goldilocks decides per-namespace whether to run its VPA in `off` mode.
Effect on Terraform: every `kubernetes_namespace` resource shows the label
as pending-removal (`-> null`) on every `scripts/tg plan`. Dawarich survey
2026-04-18 confirmed the drift. Cluster-side count: 88 namespaces carry the
label (`kubectl get ns -o json | jq ... | wc -l`). Every TF-managed namespace
is affected.
This commit brings the intentional admission drift under the same
`# KYVERNO_LIFECYCLE_V1` discoverability marker introduced in c9d221d5 for
the ndots dns_config pattern. The marker now stands generically for any
Kyverno admission-webhook drift suppression; the inline comment records
which specific policy stamps which specific field so future grep audits
show why each suppression exists.
## This change
107 `.tf` files touched — every stack's `resource "kubernetes_namespace"`
resource gets:
```hcl
lifecycle {
# KYVERNO_LIFECYCLE_V1: goldilocks-vpa-auto-mode ClusterPolicy stamps this label on every namespace
ignore_changes = [metadata[0].labels["goldilocks.fairwinds.com/vpa-update-mode"]]
}
```
Injection was done with a brace-depth-tracking Python pass (`/tmp/add_goldilocks_ignore.py`):
match `^resource "kubernetes_namespace" ` → track `{` / `}` until the
outermost closing brace → insert the lifecycle block before the closing
brace. The script is idempotent (skips any file that already mentions
`goldilocks.fairwinds.com/vpa-update-mode`) so re-running is safe.
Vault stack picked up 2 namespaces in the same file (k8s-users produces
one, plus a second explicit ns) — confirmed via file diff (+8 lines).
## What is NOT in this change
- `stacks/trading-bot/main.tf` — entire file is `/* … */` commented out
(paused 2026-04-06 per user decision). Reverted after the script ran.
- `stacks/_template/main.tf.example` — per-stack skeleton, intentionally
minimal. User keeps it that way. Not touched by the script (file
has no real `resource "kubernetes_namespace"` — only a placeholder
comment).
- `.terraform/` copies (e.g. `stacks/metallb/.terraform/modules/...`) —
gitignored, won't commit; the live path was edited.
- `terraform fmt` cleanup of adjacent pre-existing alignment issues in
authentik, freedify, hermes-agent, nvidia, vault, meshcentral. Reverted
to keep the commit scoped to the Goldilocks sweep. Those files will
need a separate fmt-only commit or will be cleaned up on next real
apply to that stack.
## Verification
Dawarich (one of the hundred-plus touched stacks) showed the pattern
before and after:
```
$ cd stacks/dawarich && ../../scripts/tg plan
Before:
Plan: 0 to add, 2 to change, 0 to destroy.
# kubernetes_namespace.dawarich will be updated in-place
(goldilocks.fairwinds.com/vpa-update-mode -> null)
# module.tls_secret.kubernetes_secret.tls_secret will be updated in-place
(Kyverno generate.* labels — fixed in 8d94688d)
After:
No changes. Your infrastructure matches the configuration.
```
Injection count check:
```
$ rg -c 'KYVERNO_LIFECYCLE_V1: goldilocks-vpa-auto-mode' stacks/ | awk -F: '{s+=$2} END {print s}'
108
```
## Reproduce locally
1. `git pull`
2. Pick any stack: `cd stacks/<name> && ../../scripts/tg plan`
3. Expect: no drift on the namespace's goldilocks.fairwinds.com/vpa-update-mode label.

## Context
Phase 1 of the state-drift consolidation audit (plan Wave 3) identified that
the entire repo leans on a repeated `lifecycle { ignore_changes = [...dns_config] }`
snippet to suppress Kyverno's admission-webhook dns_config mutation (the ndots=2
override that prevents NxDomain search-domain flooding). 27 occurrences across
19 stacks. Without this suppression, every pod-owning resource shows perpetual
TF plan drift.
The original plan proposed a shared `modules/kubernetes/kyverno_lifecycle/`
module emitting the ignore-paths list as an output that stacks would consume in
their `ignore_changes` blocks. That approach is architecturally impossible:
Terraform's `ignore_changes` meta-argument accepts only static attribute paths
— it rejects module outputs, locals, variables, and any expression (the HCL
spec evaluates `lifecycle` before the regular expression graph). So a DRY
module cannot exist. The canonical pattern IS the repeated snippet.
What the snippet was missing was a *discoverability tag* so that (a) new
resources can be validated for compliance, (b) the existing 27 sites can be
grep'd in a single command, and (c) future maintainers understand the
convention rather than each reinventing it.
## This change
- Introduces `# KYVERNO_LIFECYCLE_V1` as the canonical marker comment.
Attached inline on every `spec[0].template[0].spec[0].dns_config` line
(or `spec[0].job_template[0].spec[0]...` for CronJobs) across all 27
existing suppression sites.
- Documents the convention with rationale and copy-paste snippets in
`AGENTS.md` → new "Kyverno Drift Suppression" section.
- Expands the existing `.claude/CLAUDE.md` Kyverno ndots note to reference
the marker and explain why the module approach is blocked.
- Updates `_template/main.tf.example` so every new stack starts compliant.
## What is NOT in this change
- The `kubernetes_manifest` Kyverno annotation drift (beads `code-seq`)
— that is Phase B with a sibling `# KYVERNO_MANIFEST_V1` marker.
- Behavioral changes — every `ignore_changes` list is byte-identical
save for the inline comment.
- The fallback module the original plan anticipated — skipped because
Terraform rejects expressions in `ignore_changes`.
- `terraform fmt` cleanup on adjacent unrelated blocks in three files
(claude-agent-service, freedify/factory, hermes-agent). Reverted to
keep this commit scoped to the convention rollout.
## Before / after
Before (cannot distinguish accidental-forgotten from intentional-convention):
```hcl
lifecycle {
ignore_changes = [spec[0].template[0].spec[0].dns_config]
}
```
After (greppable, self-documenting, discoverable by tooling):
```hcl
lifecycle {
ignore_changes = [spec[0].template[0].spec[0].dns_config] # KYVERNO_LIFECYCLE_V1
}
```
## Test Plan
### Automated
```
$ rg -c 'KYVERNO_LIFECYCLE_V1' stacks/ --include='*.tf' --include='*.tf.example' \
| awk -F: '{s+=$2} END {print s}'
27
$ git diff --stat | grep -E '\.(tf|tf\.example|md)$' | wc -l
21
# All code-file diffs are 1 insertion + 1 deletion per marker site,
# except beads-server (3), ebooks (4), immich (3), uptime-kuma (2).
$ git diff --stat stacks/ | tail -1
20 files changed, 45 insertions(+), 28 deletions(-)
```
### Manual Verification
No apply required — HCL comments only. Zero effect on any stack's plan output.
Future audits: `rg 'KYVERNO_LIFECYCLE_V1' stacks/ | wc -l` must grow as new
pod-owning resources are added.
## Reproduce locally
1. `cd infra && git pull`
2. `rg 'KYVERNO_LIFECYCLE_V1' stacks/` → expect 27 hits in 19 files
3. Grep any new `kubernetes_deployment` for the marker; absence = missing
suppression.

Two-tier state architecture:
- Tier 0 (infra, platform, cnpg, vault, dbaas, external-secrets): local
state with SOPS encryption in git — unchanged, required for bootstrap.
- Tier 1 (105 app stacks): PostgreSQL backend on CNPG cluster at
10.0.20.200:5432/terraform_state with native pg_advisory_lock.
Motivation: multi-operator friction (every workstation needed SOPS + age +
git-crypt), bootstrap complexity for new operators, and headless agents/CI
needing the full encryption toolchain just to read state.
Changes:
- terragrunt.hcl: conditional backend (local vs pg) based on tier0 list
- scripts/tg: tier detection, auto-fetch PG creds from Vault for Tier 1,
skip SOPS and Vault KV locking for Tier 1 stacks
- scripts/state-sync: tier-aware encrypt/decrypt (skips Tier 1)
- scripts/migrate-state-to-pg: one-shot migration script (idempotent)
- stacks/vault/main.tf: pg-terraform-state static role + K8s auth role
for claude-agent namespace
- stacks/dbaas: terraform_state DB creation + MetalLB LoadBalancer
service on shared IP 10.0.20.200
- Deleted 107 .tfstate.enc files for migrated Tier 1 stacks
- Cleaned up per-stack tiers.tf (now generated by root terragrunt.hcl)
