Update `.claude/reference/authentik-state.md`:
- Add `ProxyProvider.access_token_validity = "weeks=4"` to the Session
Duration table with the gotcha that the gorilla session store binds
the value once at outpost startup (rollout restart needed).
- Replace the "session storage moved to Postgres in 2025.10" note that
falsely implied the migration was automatic — explain that the
`Outpost.managed` field gates the postgres path and our outpost
silently stayed on `FilesystemStore` until 2026-05-10.
- Document the goauthentik 2026.2.2 service-selector bug
(service.py:52) and the JSON-patch workaround.
- Document that the standalone embedded-outpost deployment needs
`AUTHENTIK_POSTGRESQL__*` env vars injected via JSON patch, plus the
`app.kubernetes.io/component=server` pod label.
- Note the "Terraform doesn't expose `Outpost.managed`" assumption
that holds the `managed=embedded` value in place across applies.
Close out post-mortem `2026-04-18-authentik-outpost-shm-full.md`:
- P2 codify-in-Terraform: DONE.
- P3 access_token_validity reduce: DONE-alt (we did the opposite —
bumped to 4 weeks — because postgres backend mooted the storage
concern).
- P3 move-off-embedded-outpost: DONE-alt (postgres backend addresses
the loss-of-state class on the embedded outpost itself).
Adds modules/kubernetes/anubis_instance/ — a per-site reverse proxy
instance pinned to ghcr.io/techarohq/anubis:v1.25.0. Each instance
issues a 30-day JWT cookie scoped to viktorbarzin.me after a tiny
proof-of-work (difficulty 2 ≈ 250 ms desktop / 700 ms mobile). The
shared ed25519 signing key (Vault: secret/viktor → anubis_ed25519_key)
makes a single solve good across every Anubis-fronted subdomain.
Wired into blog (viktorbarzin.me + www), kms.viktorbarzin.me, and
travel.viktorbarzin.me — each with anti_ai_scraping=false on the
ingress so the redundant ai-bot-block forwardAuth is dropped from the
chain. Skipped forgejo (Git/API clients can't solve PoW) and resume
(replicas=0).
Also tightens bot-block-proxy nginx timeouts (3s/5s → 100ms/200ms) so
any ingress still using the ai-bot-block forwardAuth pays at most
~150 ms when poison-fountain is scaled down, instead of 3 s.
End-to-end TTFB on viktorbarzin.me dropped from ~3.2 s to ~150-200 ms.
Docs: .claude/reference/patterns.md "Anti-AI Scraping" updated to
4 layers; .claude/CLAUDE.md adds the Anubis usage paragraph and
Forgejo/API caveat.
The f1-stream verifier's in-process headless Chromium kept tripping
hmembeds' disable-devtool.js Performance detector (CDP latency on
console.log vs console.table) and getting redirected to google.com.
This adds a single-replica chrome-service stack running Playwright
launch-server under Xvfb so callers can connect via WS+token to a
shared headed browser. f1-stream's _ensure_browser now prefers
chromium.connect(CHROME_WS_URL/CHROME_WS_TOKEN) and adds a vendored
stealth init script (webdriver/plugins/languages/Permissions/WebGL
spoofs + querySelector hijack to disarm disable-devtool-auto) on
every new context. Falls back to in-process headless if the env
vars aren't set.
Encrypted PVC for profile + npm cache, NetworkPolicy to TCP/3000
gated by client-namespace label, 6h tar.gz backup CronJob to NFS,
Authentik-gated nginx sidecar at chrome.viktorbarzin.me for human
liveness checks. Image pinned to playwright:v1.48.0-noble in
lockstep with the Python client's playwright==1.48.0.

- Adopt UserLoginStage (default-authentication-login) into Terraform
and pin session_duration=weeks=4 so users stay logged in across
browser restarts. There is no Brand.session_duration in 2026.2.x;
UserLoginStage is the only correct lever.
- Cap anonymous Django sessions at 2h via
AUTHENTIK_SESSIONS__UNAUTHENTICATED_AGE on server + worker pods
(default is days=1). Bots, healthcheckers, and partial flows now
get reaped within 2h instead of accumulating for a day.
Implementation note: the env var is injected via server.env /
worker.env rather than authentik.sessions.unauthenticated_age,
because authentik.existingSecret.secretName is set, which makes the
chart skip rendering its own AUTHENTIK_* Secret. authentik.* values
are therefore inert in this stack -- this is documented in
.claude/reference/authentik-state.md so future edits use the right
surface.

Remove every hardcoded reference to k8s-node1 that pinned GPU
scheduling to a specific host:
- GPU workload nodeSelectors: gpu=true -> nvidia.com/gpu.present=true
(frigate, immich, whisper, piper, ytdlp, ebook2audiobook, audiblez,
audiblez-web, nvidia-exporter, gpu-pod-exporter). The NFD label is
auto-applied by gpu-feature-discovery on any node carrying an
NVIDIA PCI device, so the selector follows the card.
- null_resource.gpu_node_config: rewrite to enumerate NFD-labeled
nodes (feature.node.kubernetes.io/pci-10de.present=true) and taint
each with nvidia.com/gpu=true:PreferNoSchedule. Drop the manual
'kubectl label gpu=true' since NFD handles labeling.
- MySQL anti-affinity: kubernetes.io/hostname NotIn [k8s-node1] ->
nvidia.com/gpu.present NotIn [true]. Same intent (keep MySQL off
the GPU node) but portable when the card relocates.
Net effect: moving the GPU card between nodes no longer requires any
Terraform edit. Verified no-op for current scheduling — both old and
new labels resolve to node1 today.
Docs updated to match: AGENTS.md, compute.md, overview.md,
proxmox-inventory.md, k8s-portal agent-guidance string.
Second identical registry incident on 2026-04-19 (first 2026-04-13): the
infra-ci:latest image index resolved to child manifests whose blobs had been
garbage-collected out from under the index. Pipelines P366→P376 all exited
126 "image can't be pulled". Hot fix (a05d63e / 6371e75 / c113be4) restored
green CI but left the underlying bug unaddressed.
Root cause: cleanup-tags.sh rmtrees tag dirs on the registry VM daily at
02:00, registry:2's GC (Sunday 03:25) walks OCI index children imperfectly
(distribution/distribution#3324 class). Nothing verified pushes end-to-end;
nothing probed the registry for fetchability; nothing caught orphan indexes.
Phase 1 — Detection:
- .woodpecker/build-ci-image.yml: after build-and-push, a verify-integrity
step walks the just-pushed manifest (index + children + config + every
layer blob) via HEAD and fails the pipeline on any non-200. Catches
broken pushes at the source.
- stacks/monitoring: new registry-integrity-probe CronJob (every 15m) and
three alerts — RegistryManifestIntegrityFailure,
RegistryIntegrityProbeStale, RegistryCatalogInaccessible — closing the
"registry serves 404 for a tag that exists" gap that masked the incident
for 2+ hours.
- docs/post-mortems/2026-04-19-registry-orphan-index.md: root cause,
timeline, monitoring gaps, permanent fix.
Phase 2 — Prevention:
- modules/docker-registry/docker-compose.yml: pin registry:2 → registry:2.8.3
across all six registry services. Removes the floating-tag footgun.
- modules/docker-registry/fix-broken-blobs.sh: new scan walks every
_manifests/revisions/sha256/<digest> that is an image index and logs a
loud WARNING when a referenced child blob is missing. Does NOT auto-
delete — deleting a published image is a conscious decision. Layer-link
scan preserved.
Phase 3 — Recovery:
- build-ci-image.yml: accept `manual` event so Woodpecker API/UI rebuilds
don't need a cosmetic Dockerfile edit (matches convention from
pve-nfs-exports-sync.yml).
- docs/runbooks/registry-rebuild-image.md: exact command sequence for
diagnosing + rebuilding after an orphan-index incident, plus a fallback
for building directly on the registry VM if Woodpecker itself is down.
- docs/runbooks/registry-vm.md + .claude/reference/service-catalog.md:
cross-references to the new runbook.
Out of scope (verified healthy or intentionally deferred):
- Pull-through DockerHub/GHCR mirrors (74.5% hit rate, no 404s).
- Registry HA/replication (single-VM SPOF is a known architectural
choice; Synology offsite covers RPO < 1 day).
- Diun exclude for registry:2 — not applicable; Diun only watches
k8s (DIUN_PROVIDERS_KUBERNETES=true), not the VM's docker-compose.
Verified locally:
- fix-broken-blobs.sh --dry-run on a synthetic registry directory correctly
flags both orphan layer links and orphan OCI-index children.
- terraform fmt + validate on stacks/monitoring: success (only unrelated
deprecation warnings).
- python3 yaml.safe_load on .woodpecker/build-ci-image.yml and
modules/docker-registry/docker-compose.yml: both parse clean.

Phase 3 — replication chain (old → v2):
- Discovered the v2 cluster was running redis:7.4-alpine, but the
Bitnami old master ships redis 8.6.2 which writes RDB format 13 —
the 7.4 replicas rejected the stream with "Can't handle RDB format
version 13". Bumped v2 image to redis:8-alpine (also 8.6.2) to
restore PSYNC compatibility.
- Discovered that sentinel on BOTH v2 and old Bitnami clusters
auto-discovered the cross-cluster replication chain when v2-0
REPLICAOF'd the old master, triggering a failover that reparented
old-master to a v2 replica and took HAProxy's backend offline.
Mitigation: `SENTINEL REMOVE mymaster` on all 5 sentinels (both
clusters) during the REPLICAOF surgery, then re-MONITOR after
cutover. This must be done on the OLD sentinels too, not just v2 —
they're the ones that kept fighting our REPLICAOF.
- Set up the chain: v2-0 REPLICAOF old-master; v2-{1,2} REPLICAOF v2-0.
All 76 keys (db0:76, db1:22, db4:16) synced including `immich_bull:*`
BullMQ queues and `_kombu.*` Celery queues — the user-stated
must-survive data class.
Phase 4 — HAProxy cutover:
- Updated `kubernetes_config_map.haproxy` to point at
`redis-v2-{0,1,2}.redis-v2-headless` for both redis_master and
redis_sentinel backends (removed redis-node-{0,1}).
- Promoted v2-0 (`REPLICAOF NO ONE`) at the same time as the
ConfigMap apply so HAProxy's 1s health-check interval found a
role:master within a few seconds. Cutover disruption on HAProxy
rollout was brief; old clients naturally moved to new HAProxy pods
within the rolling update window.
- Re-enabled sentinel monitoring on v2 with `SENTINEL MONITOR
mymaster <hostname> 6379 2` after verifying `resolve-hostnames yes`
+ `announce-hostnames yes` were active — this ensures sentinel
stores the hostname (not resolved IP) in its rewritten config, so
pod-IP churn on restart doesn't break failover.
Phase 5 — chaos:
- Round 1: killed master v2-0 mid-probe. First run exposed the
sentinel IP-storage issue (stored 10.10.107.222, went stale on
restart) — ~12s probe disruption. Fixed hostname persistence and
re-MONITORed.
- Round 2: killed new master v2-2 with hostnames correctly stored.
Sentinel elected v2-0, HAProxy re-routed, 1/40 probe failures over
60s — target <3s of actual user-visible disruption.
Phase 6 — Nextcloud simplification:
- `zzz-redis.config.php` no longer queries sentinel in-process —
just points at `redis-master.redis.svc.cluster.local`. Removed 20
lines of PHP. HAProxy handles master tracking transparently now
that it's scaled to 3 + PDB minAvailable=2.
Phase 7 step 1:
- `kubectl scale statefulset/redis-node --replicas=0` (transient —
TF removal in a 24h follow-up). Old PVCs `redis-data-redis-node-{0,1}`
preserved as cold rollback.
Docs:
- Rewrote `databases.md` Redis section to reflect post-cutover reality
and the sentinel hostname gotcha (so future sessions don't relearn it).
- `.claude/reference/service-catalog.md` entry updated.
The parallel-bootstrap race documented in the previous commit is still
worth watching — the init container now defaults to pod-0 as master
when no peer reports role:master-with-slaves, so fresh boots land in
a deterministic topology.

- vpn.md: Rewrite WireGuard section to match actual config (single tun_wg0
interface, 10.3.2.0/24 subnet, hub-and-spoke topology, correct device
names and subnets for London/Valchedrym)
- authentik-state.md: Document brute-force-protection policy unbinding fix
that was blocking all unauthenticated users from login flows
[ci skip]
Added invitation-group-assignment expression policy bound to the
enrollment-login stage. Reads group name from invitation fixed_data
and auto-adds the user to the target group on enrollment.
No more manual assign step needed after signup.
Cleanup:
- Deleted 5 unused flows (enrollment-inviation, headscale-auth/authz, default-enrollment, oauth-enrollment)
- Deleted 8 orphaned stages bound only to deleted flows
- Deleted authentik Read-only group and role (0 users)
- Deleted 2 unbound policies (map github username, Map Google Attributes)
Invitation enrollment:
- Created invitation-enrollment flow with 5 stages (invitation validation,
identification with social login, prompt, user write, auto-login)
- Set all OAuth sources (Google/GitHub/Facebook) enrollment_flow to invitation-enrollment
- New users can only sign up via single-use invitation links
- Added authentik-invite.sh script for invitation management
- Updated reference docs and authentik skill
Drone CI has been fully replaced by Woodpecker CI at ci.viktorbarzin.me.
