Viktor is setting up an Android app development pipeline (tripit is the
first app) and wants agents to natively test changes on Android before
shipping. This adds the testing environment: an API-36 Google emulator
under KVM as a privileged pod (namespace joins the Kyverno exclude list),
SDK/system-image/AVD on a proxmox-lvm PVC, adb on the shared MetalLB IP
10.0.20.200:5555 (LAN only), noVNC screen view at
android-emulator.viktorbarzin.lan. Image is built manually from the
stack's docker/ dir (rare rebuilds; off-infra-CI rule targets repeated
builds). First infra ADR records the trade-offs (devvm/VM/redroid/budtmo
rejected).
The raw string compare never matched qm config's canonical key order, so
the hourly timer re-issued 'qm set' against every running capped VM,
live-rewriting QEMU throttle state via QMP 24x/day. Implicated in today's
devvm freeze (15:21-16:48 UTC): the guest's disk I/O stalled inside QEMU
(blockstats frozen at 0 while QMP stayed responsive) on the legacy lsi
controller path with no iothread.
Viktor asked to root-cause the freeze before choosing fixes, then approved
mitigating via VM settings: this commit fixes the hourly trigger and
documents the incident; the controller swap (virtio-scsi-single +
iothread=1 + aio=threads) is staged on VM 102 separately, pending his
cold stop/start.
Adds docs/post-mortems/2026-06-11-devvm-qemu-io-stall.md (evidence chain,
ruled-out causes, capture-before-kill autopsy steps) and syncs compute.md
+ proxmox-inventory.md.

Viktor asked to go through the agent's stored infra facts and straighten out anything wrong about what-is-where. Cross-checking docs against the live cluster surfaced doc drift alongside the stale memories:
- compute.md: add k8s-node5/6 (joined 2026-05-26) to diagram + node table; totals 48 vCPU / ~176GB -> 64 vCPU / ~240GB; cluster version v1.34.2 -> v1.34.8 (live-verified)
- storage.md: the nfs-proxmox StorageClass no longer exists (removed 2026-04-25, commit 484b4c71) — nfs-truenas is the only NFS SC; fixed three spots that told readers to use nfs-proxmox
- proxmox-inventory.md: k8s VM RAM rows live-verified via kubectl (master 32G, node1 48G, node2-4 32G — the old 16/32/24G figures predated the 2026-04-02 resize), added node5/6 rows, devvm swap 8G -> 14G (grown 2026-06-10), recomputed total (~288GB nominal of 272GB physical, overcommitted)

Sets FARE_PROVIDER=playwright + FARE_CDP_URL on the tripit deployment so the planning workspace's flight_fare cells auto-fetch live Google Flights quotes through the existing in-cluster headed browser (tripit issue #18, ADR-0007 — rate-limited, cached, degrades to manual entry). Viktor asked to complete the trip-planning tickets; this is the infra leg of the fare-scrape slice. Docs: chrome-service architecture + service catalog updated (tripit is now the second active CDP caller; catalog's legacy :3000 WS pool line corrected to CDP :9222). HOLD-ORDER NOTE: pushed only after the tripit image containing FareMode.playwright rolled out (older images crash-loop on the unknown enum).

Viktor asked to add connection logs (Traefik/Cloudflare) to catch the
real-path t3 WS drops: a direct-to-t3-serve browser ran 40 min clean
while real tunnel sessions cycle every 15-35s, so the drop originates
above t3-serve and we need to see which layer cuts the socket.
Traefik (/ws duration) and cloudflared (WS close events) already ship to
Loki; the gap was the devvm side. This adds:
- t3-dispatch logs every /ws open/close with dur_ms + cause:
downstream_closed (client/CF/Traefik hung up = last-mile/network),
upstream_closed (t3-serve closed/reset), or graceful. Graceful closes
previously left no trace (default ReverseProxy only logs on error), so a
watchdog-driven reconnect was invisible. Helpers unit-tested.
- devvm-promtail.{yaml,service}: ships devvm journald (t3-dispatch +
t3-serve@<user>) to cluster Loki as job=devvm-journal, mirroring the
pve/rpi-sofia shippers. devvm was never in Loki (standalone VM).
Joined in Loki the three layers attribute any future drop to a segment
with no repro needed. Runbook + service-catalog updated.
The first apply of the signin-speedup change triggered a ~50min authentik
outage (and a shared CNPG primary failover): the helm chart pin (2026.2.2)
silently DOWNGRADED the Keel-managed live image (2026.2.4) against an
already-migrated DB, default liveness probes kill-looped pods queuing on
authentik's migration advisory lock, and kills mid-migration left ghost
idle-in-transaction sessions holding that lock. Full analysis in
docs/post-mortems/2026-06-10-authentik-downgrade-boot-storm.md.
Hardening (all root causes):
- values.yaml: pin global.image.tag to the Keel-managed live tag (2026.2.4)
so helm applies can never downgrade under Keel again
- values.yaml: server livenessProbe 6x10s/5s (was chart-default 3x10s/3s)
- values.yaml: REMOVE AUTHENTIK_POSTGRESQL__CONN_MAX_AGE (session-mode
pgbouncer pins persistent conns 1:1 -> pool saturation, 58s/s waits)
- pgbouncer.ini: idle_transaction_timeout=300 reaps ghost lock holders;
pgbouncer.tf gets a config-checksum annotation so ini changes roll pods
- authentik_provider.tf: drop the completed import stanza (adoption rule)
- traefik: suppress pre-existing keel.sh annotation/tier-label drift on
auth-proxy/bot-block/x402/error-pages deployments (KEEL_LIFECYCLE_V1
pattern) so applies stop stripping live Keel state

Viktor asked to review Authentik and the web tier and make first-time
signin to apps faster. Review found the slowness is screens and round
trips, not server time. Changes:
- values.yaml: the authentik.* Helm values (gunicorn workers, cache
timeouts, conn_max_age) were silently INERT because existingSecret
skips chart env rendering — pods ran defaults (2 workers, 300s
caches, no persistent DB conns). Moved all tuning into
server.env/worker.env, which actually reaches the pods.
- authentik_provider.tf: adopt the identification stage and pin
password_stage so username+password render on ONE screen (the
separate order-20 password binding is deleted via API — authentik
requires that when embedding). Outpost log_level trace->info and
1->2 replicas (it is on the hot path of every forward-auth request;
PG-backed sessions make 2 replicas safe).
- authentik module: /static ingress carve-out with immutable
Cache-Control (assets are version-fingerprinted but served with no
max-age — internal split-horizon users got zero caching).
- traefik auth-proxy nginx: upstream keepalive 32 + HTTP/1.1 (was
opening a fresh TCP connection to the outpost per subrequest) +
config-checksum annotation so config changes roll the pods.
- docs: authentication.md + authentik-state.md updated; fixed stale
'postgresql.dbaas has no endpoints' claim in CLAUDE.md/CONTEXT.md
(it is a live CNPG primary-selector compatibility service).
Done via API in the same change (UI-managed objects): 6 OIDC providers
(Vault, Forgejo, Immich, Headscale, linkwarden, Cloudflare Access)
switched from explicit to implicit consent — all first-party, the
4-weekly consent screen only slowed first-time signin.

Closes the loop on Viktor's ask to find the t3 disconnect root cause and
definitively rule infra in or out. Server logs alone cannot separate
'client network broke' from 'Cloudflare/tunnel broke' from 't3-serve
stalled' — every cause collapses into the same 20s-watchdog reconnect.
The t3-probe (stacks/t3code) holds three permanent legs that differ only
in path segment: 'cloudflare' (WS via DoH-resolved public DNS -> WAN ->
CF edge -> tunnel -> Traefik -> dispatch), 'internal' (same WS pinned to
the Traefik LB, no Cloudflare), 't3serve' (HTTP straight to the serve
process). Whichever leg drops convicts its segment; all legs clean while
a user drops exonerates infra with data. Dispatch gains an
unauthenticated /probe/ws echo + /probe/healthz (gorilla/websocket,
test-first) behind an auth=none path carve-out, guarded by the
authentik-walloff probe.
Also starts scraping devvm's node_exporter (job 'devvm') — it ran
unscraped, so the box whose memory/IO stalls cause the drops had zero
pressure history. Alerts T3ProbeLegDown + T3ProbeDropBurst; runbook
docs/runbooks/t3-drop-attribution.md.
Investigated the 0.0.25 break: it is ONLY an endpoint rename
(/api/auth/bootstrap -> /api/auth/browser-session). The rest of the pairing
contract (credential payload, t3_session cookie, /api/auth/session) is
byte-identical, verified in isolated 0.0.24-vs-0.0.25 sandbox serves. So a
future pin bump is now safe + reversible (pin STAYS 0.0.24 — this is prep):
- t3-dispatch: autoPair tries /api/auth/browser-session, falls back to
/api/auth/bootstrap on 404 — one binary pairs across both versions and any
rolling-restart skew. TDD via TestAutoPairAcrossVersions (red on 0.0.25
before, green after). Built, deployed, verified live on 0.0.24 (all three
users still 302 + t3_session via the fallback).
- t3-autoupdate.sh: health-check now exercises the REAL mint->credential->cookie
handshake (was GET / -> 200, which passed the pairing-broken nightly). A bad
build now auto-rolls-back. Validated against both versions.
- t3-backup-state.{sh,service,timer}: daily online VACUUM INTO of each ~/.t3
state.sqlite (was the only copy, unbacked) -> the one-way forward schema
migration becomes a restore, not sqlite surgery. timeout-guarded.
- runbooks/t3-version-bump.md: the reversible cutover checklist.
- post-mortem #5 (health-check) DONE + #6 added; service-catalog updated.

The t3-autoupdate timer (re-enabled by the provisioner's step 5b with
`--now`, which fires the missed daily job immediately on a Persistent
timer) pulled t3@nightly 0.0.25 mid-day. That build ran forward schema
migrations on every ~/.t3 state.sqlite (auth_pairing_links/auth_sessions
role->scopes, +proof_key_thumbprint) AND changed the bootstrap API,
breaking t3-mint/pairing for ALL devvm users (pair prompt, no session).
- t3-autoupdate.sh: now a pinned-version ENFORCER (T3_PIN=0.0.24), not a
nightly tracker -- re-asserts the pin (a no-op when correct).
- t3-provision-users.sh step 5b: drop `--now` (it triggered the
immediate missed-job run that pulled the bad build).
- setup-devvm.sh: install pinned t3@0.0.24 at machine setup.
- unit Descriptions + service-catalog reflect the pin.
- post-mortem: 2026-06-09-t3-nightly-autoupdate-auth-outage.md.
Host already reconciled out-of-band: rolled back to 0.0.24, re-enabled
the (now-pinned) enforcer, reset the 2 new users' disposable DBs,
surgically reverted wizard's auth tables to level-30 (96 threads + live
session preserved). All users verified 302 + t3_session.

The migration left a UI-managed (not TF) Authentik OIDC app orphaned — tuwunel

Replace the cramped Synapse deployment with tuwunel v1.7.1: embedded RocksDB
drops the CNPG dependency (both init-containers, the db ESO, the Reloader
annotation all gone), env-var config, fsGroup-owned encrypted PVC, federation
on, tuwunel-served well-known delegation to :443. server_name unchanged
(matrix.viktorbarzin.me); fresh start (no Synapse->RocksDB migration path).
Registered @viktor admin then disabled registration (403).
Cleanup: removed the orphaned pg-matrix Vault static role and dropped the
matrix Postgres DB/role; updated service-catalog, upgrade-config, CLAUDE.md
PG-rotation list, and the Matrix OIDC->orphaned auth notes. Design+plan in
docs/plans/2026-06-08-matrix-synapse-to-tuwunel-*.

CI/CD for the stem95su site is intentionally ON-DEMAND, not a CronJob:
the content is short-term and a scheduled job + Vault secret + ESO +
GCP "publish to Production" would be rotting artifacts. Instead, mirror

throwaway rclone container using the existing google_workspace OAuth

shred the temp config. Verified end-to-end. Recipe in claude-memory.

New public static site at stem95su.viktorbarzin.me serving the school's
Bulgarian STEM platform (dashboard + lessons/games, externally authored
HTML/media exported from Gemini).
- Stock nginx:1.28-alpine serving /srv/nfs/stem-site read-only (nfs_volume),
NOT image-baked — content updated out-of-band (Nextcloud "PVE NFS Pool"
or rsync), no rebuild; auto-backed-up offsite by nfs-mirror.
- ingress_factory auth="none" (open; CrowdSec + ai-bot-block at the edge),
dns_type="proxied" (Cloudflare CNAME auto-created).
- nginx ConfigMap sets index stem_board.html (the dashboard) for "/".
- Docs: service-catalog entry + new "Static Site Hosting" pattern
(NFS-backed vs image-baked) in patterns.md.
Applied via scripts/tg apply; verified live end-to-end (dashboard, 20MB
page, video byte-range, no Authentik redirect) through the public

Root cause of "barely serving films": Real-Debrid's May-2026
infringing_file/HTTP-451 filter blocks WEB-DL releases (which dominate
new content), while degraded sources starved candidates. RD account +
popular-title availability were healthy throughout (library 32/36
unrestrict OK; Matrix 897 / Dune2 694 / Oppenheimer 672 streams).
Runtime config (AIOStreams PG, applied via API — not in this diff):
- Comet timeout 5s -> 10s. Comet is the workhorse (~450+ streams/title)
and was silently dropping the bulk of its results at the 5s cutoff;
Interstellar 430 -> 987 streams after the bump.
- Removed MediaFusion preset: broken upstream ("Invalid configuration"
-> 500 Internal Server Error), contributed 0 usable streams, only a
dead [X] entry in every list.
This diff (Terraform):
- Harden aiostreams-stream-probe: test series AND movie paths, per-source
breakdown (comet/torrentio/stremthru_torz/knaben), error-stream count,
success gated on Comet being alive. The old probe counted only Breaking
Bad streams and stayed green while new-content playback was broken.
- service-catalog: reflect source set + probe behaviour.
[ci skip] — probe already applied via targeted `tg apply` + verified
(series=378 movie=898 comet=206 errors=0 success=1); skipping the full

Stand up upstream TREK (mauriceboe/trek:3.0.22, AGPL) as a low-commitment
trial to evaluate the self-hosted group-trip use case before building a
custom app. Solo, single shared instance, Authentik forward-auth.
- stacks/trek: namespace, deployment (pinned, TF-managed, no CI/Keel),
service 80->3000, ingress_factory auth=required + proxied DNS at
trek.viktorbarzin.me, TLS. Two proxmox-lvm-encrypted PVCs (SQLite data +
uploads) -- encrypted per the sensitive-data rule and to avoid the
SQLite-over-NFS locking hazard.
- Trial secrets posture: ENCRYPTION_KEY auto-generated on the data PVC,
bootstrap admin in pod logs -- no Vault/ESO. Graduation TODOs documented
in main.tf + service-catalog (Vault key, app-level SQLite backup, OIDC SSO).
- kyverno: add mauriceboe/* to require-trusted-registries allowlist (the
policy is Enforce since 2026-05-19 -- also fixed the stale "stays in
Audit" header comment that said otherwise and misled the deploy).
- Runs free on OpenStreetMap (no paid maps key). Rallly availability-poll
companion deferred per solo-trial scope.

f1-stream was extracted to its own Forgejo repo + deployed from the Forgejo

/data/personal-documents on the app container, PERSONAL_STORAGE_DIR env, and the
DOCUMENT_ENCRYPTION_KEY ExternalSecret entry (seeded in Vault secret/tripit). A
root chown init-container makes the block volume writable by the non-root app
without touching the NFS doc vault. Backs the new owner-only encrypted personal

The iDRAC stock curve runs the CPU at ~72°C on the 7080 RPM floor even
under load (optimises for quiet, not cool). Add a bash daemon + systemd
unit that drives the chassis fans from CPU temp on two curves, picked by
garage occupancy (the server is in the garage): COOL when empty
(measured ~58-65°C under load), QUIET near the silent floor when the
ha-sofia garage door shows someone is there (open, or <15min since last
activity).
Manual fan mode is backstopped: bash EXIT trap + systemd ExecStopPost
hand fans back to Dell auto on stop/crash; CPU>=83°C or repeated IPMI
failures do the same. Pushgateway metrics (job=fan_control). 36 unit
tests cover the pure curve/hysteresis/presence/parse logic; DRY_RUN +

Move t3 from pinned stable (0.0.24, catalog capped at opus-4-7) to the nightly
channel so new models (Opus 4.8) land as t3 ships them. t3-autoupdate (daily
systemd timer) pulls t3@nightly, but applies the Keel-incident lesson: it
health-checks the new binary on a throwaway serve and AUTO-ROLLS-BACK on
failure, and restarts only IDLE per-user instances (defers any with an active
agent child) so an in-flight session is never killed by an update.

t3 is single-owner (no in-app multi-user), so each person runs their own
`t3 serve` on the DevVM as their own OS user: wizard→:3773 (t3-serve.service),
emo→:3774 (t3-serve-emo.service). An in-cluster nginx `t3-dispatch` maps the
Authentik-injected X-authentik-username to the right instance; unmapped
identities get 403 (no shared fallback). Flipped the ingress auth app→required
(Authentik forward-auth) — the same-origin self-served UI works behind it (WS
carries the Authentik cookie) and t3's own pairing/bearer stays the inner gate.
Mirrors the terminal stack's per-user model.
Verified: dispatcher routes vbarzin→:3773, emil.barzin→:3774, unmapped→403;
t3.viktorbarzin.me now 302s to Authentik. Cross-origin native app / app.t3.codes
intentionally unsupported here — deferred until the native app is published.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
New stacks/t3code mirrors stacks/terminal: K8s Service + Endpoints →
10.0.10.10:3773 plus an ingress_factory route (dns_type=proxied,
auth="app"). t3 ships its own owner-pairing + bearer-session auth, so
Authentik forward-auth is intentionally omitted — it would break the
cross-origin native mobile app and app.t3.codes (bearer-only, no
Authentik cookie). CrowdSec + anti-AI (both default-on for app-tier)
rate-limit the public surface; t3's pairing is the gate. TLS is
auto-synced into the namespace by Kyverno's sync-tls-secret policy.
Verified end-to-end: t3.viktorbarzin.me → CF → Traefik → devvm:3773 = 200.
Trade-off (public RCE surface behind app-native auth, no Authentik SSO)
accepted 2026-06-01 to keep the native app + app.t3.codes working.

MCP-internal traffic.
- Read-only at paperless layer: dedicated `claude-mcp` user (non-superuser)
in new `claude-mcp-readers` group with view-only Django perms; existing
279 docs bulk-granted view perm via /api/documents/bulk_edit/;
workflow #2 auto-grants the group on new docs (Consumption Added).
- Gateway-level bearer auth via new Traefik plugin
Aetherinox/traefik-api-token-middleware@v0.1.4 (loaded in traefik stack
alongside crowdsec-bouncer); per-stack Middleware CRD `bearer-auth`
pulls token list from Vault `secret/paperless-mcp/bearer_tokens`.
- Vault `secret/paperless-mcp` holds: paperless_api_token (synced to
K8s Secret via ESO; pod env via secret_key_ref), bearer_tokens
(JSON array, read at plan time), bearer_token_viktor_laptop (mirror
for laptop wiring), paperless_user_password (paperless UI fallback).

Stremio stream aggregator now has its own row in the Active Use tier.
Captures the auth model (own UUID+password, not Authentik), monitoring
posture (canary probe + 3 alerts), and backup pipeline (weekly NFS
dumps of both decrypted config and the Stremio account addon
collection).
Follow-up from the 2026-05-15/16 hardening session: 5 commits on
servarr/aiostreams, none previously catalogued.
Add `AuthentikForwardAuthFallbackActive` Prometheus alert: fires on
sustained 401/s spike on the websecure entrypoint (>5/s for 5m), which
is the symptom of the auth-proxy Emergency-Access fallback firing —
in turn caused by zero ready endpoints on the outpost service.
Why this rule and not `kube_endpoint_address_available == 0`:
kube-state-metrics endpoint metrics exist as series names but never
have current values in this Prometheus pipeline (something is dropping
them silently). Detecting the failure at the edge via Traefik is more
reliable than instrumenting the broken middle.
Also fix the pre-existing `AuthentikOutpostForwardAuth400Spike` regex
— the service label is `authentik-ak-outpost-...`, not
`authentik-authentik-outpost-...`, so the alert never matched any
series and never could have fired. Verified in Prometheus before/after
the fix.
Add an "Upgrade Validation Checklist" section to
`.claude/reference/authentik-state.md` with the seven-step smoke test
to run after Authentik chart bumps, provider bumps, or outpost pod
recreation. Covers the brittle surfaces (Service selector, JSON
patches, postgres backend wiring, access_token_validity TTL, edge
auth flow, plan-to-zero).
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.
