## Context
For weeks, every push to infra has resulted in `build-cli` workflow
failure AND `default` workflow succeed — but the `default` workflow's
"success" was a lie. Inside the apply-loop we were swallowing per-stack
failures with `set +e ... echo FAILED` and the step exited 0 regardless.
Discovered during bd code-3o3 e2e test (qbittorrent 5.0.4 → 5.1.4):
agent commit landed, CI reported `default=success`, but cluster was
unchanged. Log inside the step showed:
[servarr] Starting apply...
ERROR: Cannot read PG credentials from Vault.
Run: vault login -method=oidc
[servarr] FAILED (exit 1)
Two root causes, two fixes here.
### 1. Vault `ci` role lacks Tier-1 PG backend creds
The Tier-1 PG state backend (2026-04-16 migration, memory 407) uses
the `pg-terraform-state` static DB role. `scripts/tg` reads it via
`vault read database/static-creds/pg-terraform-state`. That path is
permitted by the separate `terraform-state` Vault policy, which is
bound only to a role in namespace `claude-agent`. The CI runner is in
namespace `woodpecker` using role `ci`, whose policy grants only KV
+ K8s-creds + transit. Net: every Tier-1 stack apply from CI has
been dying at the PG-creds fetch since the migration.
**Fix**: attach `vault_policy.terraform_state` to
`vault_kubernetes_auth_backend_role.ci`'s `token_policies`. No new
policy needed — reuses the minimal one from 2026-04-16.
### 2. Apply-loop swallows stack failures
`.woodpecker/default.yml`'s platform + app apply loops use
`set +e; OUTPUT=$(... tg apply ...); EXIT=$?; set -e; [ $EXIT -ne 0 ]
&& echo FAILED` and then continue the while-loop. The step never
re-raises, so it exits 0 regardless of how many stacks failed.
**Fix**: accumulate failed stack names (excluding lock-skipped ones)
into `FAILED_PLATFORM_STACKS` / `FAILED_APP_STACKS`, serialise the
platform list to `.platform_failed` so it survives the step boundary,
and at the end of the app-stack step exit 1 if either list is
non-empty. Lock-skipped stacks remain non-fatal.
Together, (1) unblocks real apply and (2) ensures the Woodpecker
pipeline + the service-upgrade agent can both trust `default`
workflow state again.
## What is NOT in this change
- Re-running the qbittorrent upgrade to converge the cluster — the
TF file is already at 5.1.4 in git; once CI picks up this commit
it'll apply on its own, or Viktor can run `tg apply` locally now
that the ci role has access too.
- Retiring the `set +e ... continue` pattern entirely — keeping the
per-stack continuation so a single bad stack doesn't hide the
others' plans from the log. Just making the final status honest.
## Test Plan
### Automated
`terraform plan` / apply clean (Tier-0 via scripts/tg):
```
Plan: 0 to add, 2 to change, 0 to destroy.
# vault_kubernetes_auth_backend_role.ci will be updated in-place
~ token_policies = [
+ "terraform-state",
# (1 unchanged element hidden)
]
# vault_jwt_auth_backend.oidc will be updated in-place
~ tune = [...] # cosmetic provider-schema drift, pre-existing
Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 2 changed, 0 destroyed.
```
State re-encrypted via `scripts/state-sync encrypt vault`; enc file
committed.
### Manual Verification
```
# Before (on previous commit — expect failure):
$ kubectl -n woodpecker exec woodpecker-server-0 -- sh -c '
SA=$(cat /var/run/secrets/kubernetes.io/serviceaccount/token);
TOK=$(curl -s -X POST http://vault-active.vault.svc:8200/v1/auth/kubernetes/login \
-d "{\"role\":\"ci\",\"jwt\":\"$SA\"}" | jq -r .auth.client_token);
curl -s -H "X-Vault-Token: $TOK" \
http://vault-active.vault.svc:8200/v1/database/static-creds/pg-terraform-state'
→ {"errors":["1 error occurred:\n\t* permission denied\n\n"]}
# After (this commit):
→ {"data":{"username":"terraform_state","password":"..."},...}
```
Pipeline-level: the next infra push will exercise
`.woodpecker/default.yml`; expected first push is this very commit.
Watch `ci.viktorbarzin.me` — the `default` workflow should either
succeed for real (and land actual changes) or exit 1 with
"=== FAILED STACKS ===" so the cause is visible.

- Each stack gets its own Vault Transit key (transit/keys/sops-state-<stack>)
- state-sync passes per-stack Transit URI + age keys on encrypt
- Vault policies scope namespace-owners to their stacks only:
- sops-admin: wildcard access to all transit keys
- sops-user-<name>: access only to owned stack keys
- Anca (plotting-book) can only decrypt plotting-book state
- Admin can decrypt everything (via admin Transit policy or age fallback)
- External group sops-plotting-book maps Authentik group to Vault policy
- Updated CLAUDE.md with state sync documentation
- .sops.yaml: add hc_vault_transit_uri for transit/keys/sops-state
- state-sync: try Vault Transit first, fall back to age key on disk
- Re-encrypted all 101 state files with both Vault Transit + age
- Normal workflow: vault login → decrypt via Transit (no key files)
- Bootstrap/DR: age key at ~/.config/sops/age/keys.txt
