## Summary
Mikado chain to replace `mise run services-check` with Grafana Unified Alerting backed by ntfy push notifications.
**Design:**
- Grafana Unified Alerting evaluates rules against Prometheus/Loki
- ntfy webhook contact point delivers iOS notifications
- Anti-noise policy: page once per 24h per alert group
- Every alert links to a runbook in `docs/how-to/alerts/`
- services-check eventually queries the alerting API instead of doing its own probes
**Chain (bottom-up):**
1. `configure-grafana-alerting-pipeline` — enable alerting, ntfy contact point, notification policy
2. `first-alert-and-runbook` — end-to-end proof of concept with blackbox probe failure
3. `port-services-check-alerts` — migrate all services-check probes to alert rules + runbooks
4. `refactor-services-check-to-query-alerts` — rewrite services-check to query Grafana API
5. `deploy-infra-alerting` — goal card

## Summary
Fixes the Facebook crawler spider trap that's been generating infinite recursive URLs like `/how-to/tutorials/tutorials/how-to/explanation/...` for several days.
**Root cause:** Quartz SPA mode + nginx `try_files` fallback to `index.html` meant any fabricated URL returned the root HTML shell with HTTP 200. Crawlers followed relative links from those fake URLs, creating infinite recursion.
**Fix:**
- Disable Quartz SPA mode (`enableSPA: false`) — all pages are now fully static HTML
- Replace nginx SPA fallback with `=404` + Quartz's static `404.html`
- Remove `robots.txt` exclusions (no longer needed)
**Docs cleanup (Obsidian.nvim compat no longer needed):**
- Delete hand-curated category index files (`tutorials.md`, `reference.md`, `how-to.md`, `explanation.md`) — Quartz auto-generates folder pages
- Delete `postgresql-storage.md` (redirect stub) and `migrate-forgejo-from-brew.md` (stale history)
- Drop `docs-check-index` and `docs-check-filenames` prek hooks
- Rewrite `docs-check-links` to allow path-based wiki-links (`[[path/to/file]]`) and only error on true ambiguity
- Add `ai-docs` doc tree listing to replace index files for AI context
- Add natural cross-links from reference cards to fix orphan docs
## Deployment and Testing
- [ ] Merge and let the build pipeline run
- [ ] Verify docs.eblu.me serves pages correctly with full page loads
- [ ] Verify non-existent URLs return 404
- [ ] Monitor crawler traffic — should drop to near zero for fabricated URLs

## Summary
C2 Mikado chain to deploy [JobSync](https://github.com/Gsync/jobsync) — a self-hosted job application tracker — to ringtail's k3s cluster.
### Mikado Graph
```
deploy-jobsync (goal)
├── build-jobsync-container
│ └── mirror-jobsync
└── integrate-jobsync-ollama
```
### What is JobSync?
Next.js app with SQLite for tracking job applications. Features resume management, application pipeline tracking, and AI-powered resume review/job matching.
### Key Decisions
- **Ringtail k3s** (not minikube-indri) — colocates with Ollama for zero-latency AI
- **Nix container** via `buildLayeredImage` — no Dockerfile, mirrors upstream source on forge
- **Ollama for AI** — uses existing deployment, no API keys needed for AI features
- **No upstream fork** — vanilla JobSync, Anthropic AI deferred to future work if needed
### Current Status
Planning phase — cards committed, ready for review before implementation begins.

## Summary
- Replace pre-commit with [prek](https://github.com/j178/prek), a faster Rust-native drop-in alternative
- Migrate config from `.pre-commit-config.yaml` (YAML) to `prek.toml` (TOML)
- Add new built-in checks: case conflicts, private key detection, executable shebangs
- Install prek via mise native registry (`aqua:j178/prek`) instead of pipx
- Update all doc references across README, contributing guide, and how-to docs
## Notes
- `check-yaml` still uses the remote `pre-commit-hooks` repo because prek's builtin fast path doesn't support `--unsafe` yet (needed for Ansible custom YAML tags)
- All existing custom hooks (docs validation, container version check, mikado invariant, workflow validation) work unchanged
- Tested: all hooks pass on clean tree, deliberate doc link breakage is caught
## Test plan
- [x] `prek run --all-files` passes all checks
- [x] Broken wiki-link correctly caught by `docs-check-links`
- [x] taplo-format auto-fixes TOML formatting on commit
- [x] commit-msg hook (mikado invariant) fires correctly

## Summary
- **mirror-create**: Auto-includes GitHub PAT from 1Password for authenticated upstream fetches at mirror creation time
- **mirror-update-pats**: New mise task that SSHes into indri and rewrites the git remote URL in every GitHub mirror's bare repo config to embed the PAT. Idempotent, supports `--dry-run`
- **app.ini.j2**: Explicit `[mirror]` section with `DEFAULT_INTERVAL = 8h` and `MIN_INTERVAL = 10m` (bakes in the defaults for visibility)
- **manage-forgejo-mirrors**: New how-to doc covering mirror creation, PAT storage, the `mirror-update-pats` task, and the full 20-day PAT rotation procedure
## Context
GitHub tightened unauthenticated rate limits for git clone/fetch in May 2025. With 23 GitHub mirrors syncing every 8 hours, authenticated fetches avoid throttling. The PAT is stored in 1Password (`Forgejo Secrets` → `github-mirror-pat`) and has been applied to all existing mirrors.
## Deployment and Testing
- [x] `mirror-update-pats` dry-run verified (23 mirrors detected)
- [x] `mirror-update-pats` applied to all 23 GitHub mirrors on indri
- [x] Idempotency confirmed (re-run shows 0 updated, 23 skipped)
- [ ] Provision indri with `--tags forgejo` to apply `[mirror]` config
- [ ] Trigger a manual mirror sync and verify success in Forgejo UI

## Summary
After investigating deployed container images, confirmed that squash-merging PRs orphans the commit SHAs embedded in container image tags. Two of our currently deployed images (prometheus, grafana) reference branch commits not on main.
This PR:
- Documents the squash-merge SHA orphan problem and the post-merge workflow in [[build-container-image]]
- Adds step 9 to the C1 process: after merging a PR that changes `containers/`, do a follow-up C0 to point manifests at the rebuilt `[main]` tag
- Rewrites `container-list` as a `uv run --script` (typer + rich + httpx)
- Adds optional container name filter (`mise run container-list prometheus` shows 10 tags instead of 4)
- Annotates every tag with `[main]` or `[branch]` based on git commit ancestry
## Test plan
- [x] `mise run container-list` — all containers shown with `[main]`/`[branch]` hints
- [x] `mise run container-list prometheus` — filtered view, more tags, correctly shows `[main]` and `[branch]`
- [x] `mise run container-list nonexistent` — error message with exit code 1
- [x] Pre-commit hooks pass

## Summary
- **End-of-cycle prompting:** After closing a leaf node and pushing, the agent should prompt the user to review and suggest ending the session rather than rushing into the next leaf
- **Reset rigor:** Reinforced that errors during impl should trigger a branch reset + plan update (not fix-forward). Documented the `git log --oneline --not main` → `git reset --hard` → `git cherry-pick` pattern with clear threshold guidance
- **`--resume` shows PR number:** Queries the Forgejo API for open PRs matching the branch, displays number/title/URL and a hint to run `pr-comments`
- **`--resume` checks git stash:** Shows stash entries as a non-presumptive hint — informs without assuming they apply
## Test plan
- [ ] `mise run docs-mikado --resume` runs without errors (no active chains case)
- [ ] On a mikado branch with an open PR, verify PR info is shown
- [ ] With stashed work, verify stash entries are displayed
- [ ] Review agent-change-process.md for clarity

## Summary
- **C0 (Quick Fix):** Now explicitly allows direct-to-main commits with no PR required — for low-risk, fix-forward-safe changes
- **C1 (Human Review):** New docs-first workflow with branch deployment (ArgoCD `--revision`, Ansible from checkout). Includes upgrade criteria for escalation to C2
- **C2 (Mikado Chain):** Introduces the **Mikado Branch Invariant** — strict commit ordering where card-introducing commits come first, followed by code progress, followed by card closures. Branch resets required when new prerequisites are discovered
Updates CLAUDE.md rules (3, 4, 8, 9) to reflect that C0 bypasses branching/PR requirements. Also updates ai-assistance-guide, how-to index, and docs-mikado task description.

## Summary
- Delete the old 3-phase Helm chart upgrade plan (predates Mikado system)
- Create C2 Mikado chain with goal card `upgrade-grafana` and two leaf prereqs:
- `kustomize-grafana-deployment` — convert Helm to kustomize manifests
- `build-grafana-container` — home-built Grafana 12.x image (no upstream containers)
- Record first-ever Grafana review: currently at v11.4.0 on Helm chart 8.8.2
- Update service-versions.yaml, how-to index, and plans index
## Service Review Findings
- Grafana is healthy and synced in ArgoCD
- Running v11.4.0, latest upstream is 12.3.3
- Breaking changes for 12.x are low-risk (React panels only, UIDs compliant)
- PVC is disposable — dashboards and datasources are all config-provisioned
## Deployment and Testing
- [ ] No deployment needed — documentation-only change
- [ ] `docs-check-links` passes
- [ ] `docs-check-index` passes
