## Summary
- Fix ArgoCD icon (use `argo-cd.png` per Dashboard Icons naming)
- Add Borgmatic backup metrics widget (time since last backup, archive size)
- Add Sifaka NAS disk usage widget (used/total space)
- Create `[[grafana]]` zk card with management notes
## What didn't work
Attempted Grafana iframe embedding for a metrics panel but reverted:
- Homepage iframe widget only supports height classes, not width
- Some panels fail to load even with anonymous auth enabled
- Documented in grafana zk card for future reference
## Deployment and Testing
- [x] ArgoCD icon displays correctly
- [x] Borgmatic metrics show time since backup and archive size
- [x] NAS disk usage shows used/total bytes
- [x] Grafana reverted to authenticated-only access

## Summary
- Remove hajimari (unmaintained since Oct 2022, broken helm deps)
- Add gethomepage (28k stars, actively maintained, monthly releases)
- Migrate custom apps, bookmarks, and search config
- Enable k8s RBAC for service autodiscovery
- Configure Tailscale ingress at go.tail8d86e.ts.net
## Why the switch
Hajimari hasn't released since October 2022. The helm chart has a broken
dependency (bjw-s/common URL is 404), and unreleased code on main has bugs.
gethomepage has similar k8s autodiscovery via ingress annotations and is
very actively maintained.
## Deployment and Testing
- [ ] Delete hajimari app from ArgoCD
- [ ] Delete hajimari namespace
- [ ] Sync apps to pick up new homepage app
- [ ] Sync homepage app
- [ ] Verify go.ops.eblu.me loads

## Summary
- Add fixed Y-axis (0-220M) so the 200M autovacuum threshold is always visible
- Add dashed threshold lines at 150M (yellow warning) and 200M (red danger)
- Update title to clarify the threshold
## Context
The raw XID age naturally trends upward between vacuum freezes, which looked alarming without context. Current values (~143K-216K) are at 0.1% of the threshold - completely healthy.
## Deployment and Testing
- [ ] Sync grafana-config app to feature branch
- [ ] Verify threshold lines appear on PostgreSQL dashboard

## Summary
- Add layer4 TCP proxy configuration to Caddyfile template for SSH services
- Configure Forgejo SSH on port 2222 → localhost:2200
- Switch HTTPS from port 8443 (testing) to 443 (production)
- Requires Caddy rebuilt with `github.com/mholt/caddy-l4` plugin
## What This Enables
Git+SSH access via `forge.ops.eblu.me:2222` is now accessible from:
- Tailnet clients (gilbert)
- Docker containers on indri
- Kubernetes pods in minikube
This solves the DNS resolution issues where containers couldn't reach Tailscale MagicDNS names.
## Testing Done
- [x] Caddy rebuilt with layer4 plugin
- [x] Validated Caddyfile syntax
- [x] Cleared `svc:forge` from tailscale serve
- [x] Verified HTTPS works: `curl https://forge.ops.eblu.me`
- [x] Verified SSH works: `ssh -p 2222 forgejo@forge.ops.eblu.me`
- [x] Verified git clone works via new endpoint
- [x] Verified minikube pods can reach both HTTPS and SSH endpoints
## Deployment
Caddy is already running with the new config on indri. This PR captures the ansible changes.
## Next Steps
- Update zk docs with new git remote format
- Migrate registry and other services to Caddy
- Retire tailscale_services ansible role

The stage.match selector wasn't preventing Alloy from logging decode
errors internally. Removing logfmt parsing entirely - JSON parsing
handles most structured logs, and plain text logs still get collected.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
## Summary
- Use `stage.match` to conditionally apply logfmt parsing only to lines that don't start with `{`
- This prevents error spam like `"failed to decode logfmt" component_path=/ component_id=loki.process.pods component=stage type=logfmt err="logfmt syntax error at pos 2 on line 1: unexpected '\"'"` when JSON-formatted logs hit the logfmt parser
## Deployment and Testing
- [ ] Sync alloy-k8s app to feature branch and verify errors stop appearing
- [ ] Verify JSON logs are still parsed correctly
- [ ] Verify logfmt logs (from Loki, Prometheus etc.) are still parsed correctly

## Summary
- Remove ansible roles for services migrated to k8s: devpi, kiwix, transmission
- Also remove unused node_exporter and podman ansible roles
- Remove service tags from indri for k8s-hosted services (grafana, kiwix, devpi, pg, feed)
- Update indri description to reflect current architecture
## Changes
**Ansible roles removed** (34 files, ~1000 lines):
- devpi, devpi_metrics
- kiwix
- transmission, transmission_metrics
- node_exporter
- podman
**Pulumi indri tags removed**:
- tag:grafana, tag:kiwix, tag:devpi, tag:pg, tag:feed
These services now run in k8s with their own Tailscale devices via tailscale-operator.
## Deployment and Testing
- [x] Verified remaining ansible roles match indri.yml
- [x] Verified no playbooks or role dependencies reference removed roles
- [ ] Run `pulumi preview` to verify tag changes
- [ ] Run `pulumi up` to apply tag changes

## Summary
- Add Transmission BitTorrent daemon to k8s (torrent namespace)
- Add Kiwix ZIM archive server to k8s (kiwix namespace)
- NFS storage from sifaka for shared torrent/ZIM data
- Torrent-sync sidecar in kiwix deployment to manage declarative ZIM list
- ZIM-watcher CronJob to auto-restart kiwix when new archives appear
- Remove transmission, transmission_metrics, and kiwix ansible roles from indri
- Remove svc:kiwix from tailscale_serve defaults
## Key Decisions
- Direct NFS mount for kiwix (no PVC) since it shares storage with transmission
- Shell wrapper for kiwix-serve command (glob expansion)
- Accept HTTP 409 as "ready" in torrent sync (transmission session ID mechanism)
- Completed downloads stored in `/downloads/complete/` on sifaka
## Deployment and Testing
- [x] Deployed transmission to k8s
- [x] Verified transmission web UI at torrent.tail8d86e.ts.net
- [x] Moved existing ZIM files to complete folder
- [x] Deployed kiwix to k8s
- [x] Verified kiwix web UI at kiwix.tail8d86e.ts.net
- [x] Stopped old services on indri
- [x] Cleared svc:kiwix from Tailscale serve on indri
- [x] Updated zk documentation

## Summary
- Migrate minikube from podman driver to qemu2 driver for proper NFS/SMB volume mount support
- Update ansible minikube role with qemu installation and containerd runtime
- Remove podman role dependency from indri.yml
- Add synology user creation steps and post-migration zot reconfiguration notes
## Why
Phase 6 (Kiwix/Transmission migration) was blocked because the podman driver lacks kernel capabilities for filesystem mounts. QEMU2 creates an actual VM with full mount support.
## Deployment and Testing
- [ ] Create k8s-storage user on Synology DSM
- [ ] Store credentials in 1Password (synology-k8s-storage)
- [ ] Export current k8s state
- [ ] Stop and delete podman-based minikube cluster
- [ ] Run ansible to create QEMU2 cluster
- [ ] Test NFS volume mount with test pod
- [ ] Redeploy ArgoCD and all apps
- [ ] Verify all services healthy
- [ ] Reconfigure zot registry mirrors for containerd (post-migration)
