Sifaka's Tailscale can revert to userspace networking after package
updates, causing NFS mounts to fail because the NFS daemon sees
127.0.0.1 instead of the client's Tailscale IP. Added troubleshooting
how-to doc and updated sifaka reference card with frigate export and
TUN requirement.

Resources were under wrong Helm value keys (server.resources,
machine-learning.resources) and never applied to pods. Move to correct
bjw-s chart paths (*.controllers.main.containers.main.resources).
Increase liveness/readiness probe timeouts from 1s to 5s to prevent
kubelet from killing healthy-but-busy pods during ML inference load.
Remove CPU limits (keep requests only) to avoid throttling.

## Summary
- Adds a second borgmatic config (`photos.yaml`) that backs up `/Volumes/photos` (sifaka SMB mount, ~128 GB) to a dedicated BorgBase repo (`immich-photos`), running daily at 4 AM
- Separate launchd agent (`mcquack.eblume.borgmatic-photos`) so photo backups run independently from the main backup
- Refactors `borgmatic_metrics` script to support multiple repos with a `repo` Prometheus label
- Updates Grafana "Borg Backups" dashboard with a `repo` template variable so you can filter/compare repos
- Docs updated: `backups.md`, `borgmatic.md`
## Prerequisites (manual)
- [x] Create `immich-photos` repo on BorgBase with same SSH key
- [ ] Upgrade BorgBase plan to Small ($24/yr) if currently on free tier (128 GB exceeds 10 GB limit)
- [ ] After deploy: `borg init` the new repo (borgmatic does this automatically on first run)
## Test plan
- [ ] Dry run: `mise run provision-indri -- --check --diff --tags borgmatic,borgmatic_metrics`
- [ ] Deploy borgmatic role and verify both configs deployed
- [ ] Run `borgmatic --config ~/.config/borgmatic/photos.yaml create --verbosity 1` manually for first backup (will take hours)
- [ ] Verify metrics script collects from both repos: `~/.local/bin/borgmatic-metrics && cat /opt/homebrew/var/node_exporter/textfile/borgmatic.prom`
- [ ] Sync grafana-config in ArgoCD and verify dashboard repo selector works

## Summary
- Add `authentik` database (blumeops-pg cluster) to borgmatic pg_dump backups
- Add `immich` database (immich-pg cluster) to borgmatic pg_dump backups
- For immich-pg: new borgmatic managed role with `pg_read_all_data`, ExternalSecret, Tailscale LoadBalancer service, and Caddy L4 TCP proxy on port 5433
- Update backup docs to reflect all four CNPG databases + mealie SQLite
## Deploy plan
Deploy order matters — k8s resources must exist before ansible can route to them:
1. **ArgoCD (databases app):** sync to pick up immich-pg borgmatic role, ExternalSecret, and Tailscale service
```
argocd app set blumeops-pg --revision feature/borgmatic-all-pg-backups
argocd app sync blumeops-pg
```
2. **Wait** for `immich-pg-tailscale` service to get a Tailscale IP and `immich-pg.tail8d86e.ts.net` to resolve
3. **Ansible (caddy):** deploy Caddy L4 route for port 5433
```
mise run provision-indri -- --tags caddy
```
4. **Ansible (borgmatic):** deploy updated config and .pgpass
```
mise run provision-indri -- --tags borgmatic
```
5. **Verify:** trigger a manual borgmatic run and check all four pg_dump streams succeed
```
borgmatic --verbosity 1 2>&1 | grep -E '(Dumping|ERROR)'
```
## Test plan
- [x] `kubectl kustomize` builds cleanly
- [x] `ansible --check --diff` for borgmatic and caddy show expected changes
- [ ] ArgoCD sync succeeds for databases app
- [ ] `immich-pg.tail8d86e.ts.net` resolves
- [ ] `pg.ops.eblu.me:5433` accepts connections
- [ ] `borgmatic --verbosity 1` dumps all four databases without errors

The 5-minute lookback window kept stale data from terminated pods

## Summary
- Upgrade External Secrets Operator from v1.3.2 (helm-chart-2.0.0) to v2.2.0
- Migrate from Helm chart deployment to static kustomize manifests, matching the repo's kustomize-first pattern
- Merge separate `-config` ArgoCD apps into the main operator apps (6 → 4 apps)
- Clean up Helm-specific labels (`helm.sh/chart`, `managed-by: Helm`)
- Update README example from v1beta1 to v1 API
## Breaking changes assessment
Low risk — v2.0.0 removed Alibaba and Device42 providers (we use neither). No templating changes affect us. All ExternalSecrets already use v1 API.
## Deployment steps
1. Sync CRDs first on both clusters (new CRD version)
2. Sync operator apps (now kustomize-based)
3. Verify ClusterSecretStore and all ExternalSecrets are healthy
4. Delete orphaned config apps: `argocd app delete external-secrets-config` and `-config-ringtail`
5. `mise run services-check`

## Summary
- Add Snowflake proxy as a native systemd service on ringtail (NixOS)
- Uses `pkgs.snowflake` from nixpkgs (v2.11.0)
- Hardened systemd unit with DynamicUser, ProtectSystem=strict, 512MB memory limit
- Prometheus metrics enabled on localhost:9999
## What is Snowflake?
A Tor pluggable transport that helps censored users reach the Tor network via WebRTC. **This is NOT a Tor exit node** — traffic exits through Tor exit nodes operated by others. The proxy operator cannot see traffic content (double-encrypted) and destination servers never see the proxy's IP.
## Changes
- `nixos/ringtail/configuration.nix` — new systemd service definition
- `docs/reference/services/snowflake-proxy.md` — service reference card
- `docs/reference/infrastructure/ringtail.md` — updated systemd services section
- `service-versions.yaml` — added entry (type: nixos)
## Deploy plan
After review, deploy via `mise run provision-ringtail`. Service starts automatically.
## Test plan
- [ ] `mise run provision-ringtail` succeeds
- [ ] `ssh ringtail 'systemctl status snowflake-proxy'` shows active
- [ ] `ssh ringtail 'journalctl -u snowflake-proxy --no-pager -n 20'` shows broker connections
- [ ] `ssh ringtail 'curl -s localhost:9999/metrics'` returns Prometheus metrics

C0 follow-up to #309: update kustomization newTag for all containers
rebuilt by the merge (authentik, authentik-redis, ntfy, alloy).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
## Summary
- Replace upstream `docker.io/library/redis:7-alpine` (Redis 7.4.8) with a nix-built container using Redis 8.2.3 from nixpkgs
- Introduce **attached service pattern**: `parent` field in service-versions.yaml, `<parent>-<component>` naming convention, and `assert pkgs.redis.version == version` in default.nix to prevent silent version drift on `flake.lock` updates
- Document the pattern in [[review-services]] so future attached services slot in cleanly
- Backfill `parent: grafana` on existing `grafana-sidecar` entry
## Version drift protection
1. `flake.lock` update bumps nixpkgs redis → `assert` in `default.nix` breaks `nix-build`
2. Developer updates `version` in `default.nix` → prek's `container-version-check` demands matching `service-versions.yaml` update
3. Both must agree before commit succeeds
## Test plan
- [ ] Build container from branch on ringtail (`mise run container-build-and-release authentik-redis`)
- [ ] Update kustomization `newTag` to branch-built image tag
- [ ] Sync authentik ArgoCD app from branch (`argocd app set authentik --revision localize-redis && argocd app sync authentik`)
- [ ] Verify Authentik login, session persistence, and task queue still work
- [ ] After merge: C0 follow-up to update `newTag` to the main-built image tag

## Summary
- Merges `build-container.yaml` and `build-container-nix.yaml` into a single workflow
- Detect job classifies each changed container by presence of `Dockerfile` and/or `default.nix`
- Dockerfile containers build on `k8s` (indri) via Dagger; Nix containers build on `nix-container-builder` (ringtail) via nix-build + skopeo
- Containers with both build files (alloy, nettest, ntfy) get built on both runners
## Test plan
- [ ] Push a change to a Dockerfile-only container (e.g. grafana) — verify it builds on k8s only
- [ ] Push a change to a nix-only container (e.g. jobsync) — verify it builds on nix-container-builder only
- [ ] Push a change to a dual container (e.g. ntfy) — verify it builds on both runners
- [ ] Test workflow_dispatch with a specific container name
