- argocd: grant local break-glass admin the admin role (g, admin, role:admin);
previously only the Authentik admins group had access, locking out admin
once its token expired (policy.default is unset).
- alloy-k8s: repoint the teslamate blackbox probe from the deleted minikube
service to https://tesla.ops.eblu.me/ (Caddy over Tailscale), like immich.

Immich migrated to ringtail's k3s cluster but the probe still targeted
the in-cluster service DNS on indri's minikube, firing ServiceProbeFailure
indefinitely. Moved the target into alloy-ringtail's config so the probe
runs in the cluster where immich actually lives.

## Summary
Devpi was crash-looping under memory pressure on the minikube StatefulSet, breaking the Python toolchain across the repo (`mise run docs-mikado`, `prek`, every `uv pip install`). It moves to indri as a native LaunchAgent.
## What changed
- **New ansible role** `ansible/roles/devpi/`: installs `devpi-server` + `devpi-web` into a uv-managed venv, initializes the server-dir on first run via 1Password root password, runs as a LaunchAgent (`mcquack.eblume.devpi`) bound to `127.0.0.1:3141`. Bootstraps from upstream PyPI (so devpi can install itself on a fresh box).
- **Caddy**: `pypi.ops.eblu.me` now proxies to `http://localhost:3141`.
- **Playbook**: `indri.yml` gains pre_tasks for the root password and the new role.
- **service-versions.yaml**: devpi flipped from `type: argocd` to `type: ansible`.
- **ArgoCD**: removed `apps/devpi.yaml` and `manifests/devpi/`. The in-cluster Application, namespace, and PVC have been deleted.
- **Docs**: new how-to `docs/how-to/operations/devpi-on-indri.md`; `restart-indri.md` lists devpi in the LaunchAgent stop list.
## Already deployed (live on indri)
- Service running: `launchctl list mcquack.eblume.devpi` → PID 53888
- `curl https://pypi.ops.eblu.me/+api` returns 200 ✅
- `mise run docs-mikado` works again ✅
- 1.0G of cached PyPI data was migrated from the PVC to `~erichblume/devpi/server-dir/`
- Minikube namespace and PVC fully reclaimed
## Test plan
- [ ] `mise run services-check` (after merge)
- [ ] CI workflows that use devpi succeed
- [ ] No regressions in tools that depend on `pypi.ops.eblu.me` (prek, uv-script tasks, dagger pipelines)
## Context
This is the C1 prelude to a planned C2 chain (`mikado/retire-minikube-indri`) to retire minikube on indri entirely. Doing devpi as a standalone C1 was the right call because (a) it was urgent — it was breaking the toolchain — and (b) it shakes out the migration recipe before we commit to a multi-leaf chain.

## 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
- 1Password Connect uses non-standard numeric log levels (`1`=error, `2`=warn, `3`=info, `4`=debug, `5`=trace) per [1Password/connect#44](https://github.com/1Password/connect/issues/44)
- Alloy extracts the `level` JSON field as-is, so info-level health checks get `level="3"` in Loki
- Grafana expects string level labels — numeric values are unrecognized, causing misclassified log severity/coloring
- Adds a `stage.match` + `stage.template` in the Alloy pipeline scoped to `{namespace="1password"}` to normalize numeric levels to standard strings
- Other services are completely unaffected (scoped by namespace, not global)
## Deployment and Testing
- [ ] Sync alloy-k8s from branch: `argocd app set alloy-k8s --revision fix/onepassword-numeric-log-levels && argocd app sync alloy-k8s`
- [ ] Wait ~2 minutes for new logs to flow
- [ ] Verify level labels: `curl -sG "http://localhost:3100/loki/api/v1/label/level/values" --data-urlencode 'query={namespace="1password"}'` should show `"info"` and `"warn"` instead of `"3"` and `"2"`
- [ ] Check Grafana log panel for 1password namespace — logs should no longer appear as errors
- [ ] After merge: `argocd app set alloy-k8s --revision main && argocd app sync alloy-k8s`

## Summary
- Add `cluster` label (indri/ringtail) to all Prometheus scrape jobs, Alloy k8s metrics/logs, and Alloy host metrics/logs
- Deploy kube-state-metrics on ringtail's k3s cluster (ArgoCD app + manifests)
- Deploy Alloy on ringtail to collect pod metrics and logs, remote-writing to indri's Prometheus and Loki
- Replace single-cluster "Minikube Kubernetes" and "K8s Services Health" dashboards with:
- **Kubernetes Clusters** dashboard — multi-cluster with `cluster` and `namespace` template variables
- **Ringtail (k3s)** dashboard — dedicated ringtail view with GPU usage panels
## Deployment and Testing
1. Sync `apps` on indri ArgoCD to pick up new app definitions (`kube-state-metrics-ringtail`, `alloy-ringtail`)
2. Sync `prometheus` → verify `cluster` label on scraped metrics
3. Sync `alloy-k8s` → verify `cluster=indri` on remote-written metrics and logs
4. Run `mise run provision-indri -- --tags alloy` → verify `cluster=indri` on host Alloy metrics/logs
5. Sync `kube-state-metrics-ringtail` → verify pods running on ringtail
6. Sync `alloy-ringtail` → verify pods running, check Prometheus for `kube_pod_info{cluster="ringtail"}`
7. Sync `grafana-config` → verify dashboards appear, cluster variable populates both values
8. Check Loki for `{cluster="ringtail"}` logs from ringtail pods
## Notes
- Alloy on ringtail uses `insecure_skip_verify=true` for TLS to Prometheus/Loki (Tailscale-managed certs not in container trust store) — tighten later
- DNS resolution for `*.tail8d86e.ts.net` from ringtail pods depends on CoreDNS inheriting host's MagicDNS resolver; may need CoreDNS forwarding rules if pods can't resolve
- The old services dashboard (blackbox probes) is removed — those probes are still running in alloy-k8s and the data is still in Prometheus, just not in a dedicated dashboard

## Summary
- Move hardcoded image tags to kustomization.yaml `images:` transformer across **22 services** — image names in manifests become version-agnostic templates, with tags centralized in one place per service
- Replace hand-written ConfigMap manifests with `configMapGenerator:` in **12 services** — config data extracted to standalone files, generated ConfigMaps include content hashes that trigger automatic pod rollouts on changes
- Create new `kustomization.yaml` for **forgejo-runner** and **nvidia-device-plugin** (switches ArgoCD from directory mode to kustomize mode, rendered output identical)
### Services modified
**Images only (8):** cv, devpi, docs, kube-state-metrics, miniflux, navidrome, teslamate, torrent
**Images + configMapGenerator (10):** alloy-k8s, forgejo-runner, frigate, grafana, homepage, kiwix, loki, mosquitto, ntfy, prometheus
**Images only, no configMapGenerator (4):** authentik (skip blueprints — special YAML tags), tailscale-operator-base (Deployment only, CRD image fields left as-is)
**Skipped entirely (6):** argocd (remote upstream), databases (no image fields), external-secrets, grafana-config (cross-kustomization dashboards), immich (Helm-managed), 1password-connect/cloudnative-pg (no kustomization.yaml)
### What changes at deploy time
- **images:** — no functional diff, `kustomize build` produces identical output with tags
- **configMapGenerator:** — ConfigMap names gain hash suffixes (e.g., `prometheus-config` → `prometheus-config-6f42fhctcb`) and all Deployment/StatefulSet/DaemonSet references are updated automatically. Pods will restart once per service on first sync due to the name change
## Test plan
- [x] `kubectl kustomize` builds all 30 service directories successfully
- [x] Image tags verified in rendered output for all modified services
- [x] ConfigMap hash suffixes verified in rendered output
- [x] ConfigMap references in Deployments/StatefulSets confirmed to use hashed names
- [x] All pre-commit hooks pass (yamllint, shellcheck, prettier, etc.)
- [ ] `argocd app diff` each service to confirm only expected ConfigMap name changes
- [ ] Deploy from branch starting with a low-risk service (e.g., mosquitto)
