## Summary - Move mosquitto, ntfy, frigate, frigate-notify pod checks from `minikube-indri` to `k3s-ringtail` context in `services-check` - Add `nvidia-device-plugin` pod check for ringtail k3s - Rename "Kubernetes pods" section to "Indri minikube pods" for clarity - Update 8 documentation files to reflect the migration completed in PRs #216/#217 ## Files Changed | File | Change | |------|--------| | `mise-tasks/services-check` | Move 4 pod checks to k3s-ringtail, add nvidia-device-plugin | | `docs/reference/services/frigate.md` | Image→tensorrt, detector→ONNX/CUDA, shm→512Mi | | `docs/reference/infrastructure/ringtail.md` | List actual k3s workloads | | `docs/reference/infrastructure/indri.md` | Note frigate migration | | `docs/explanation/architecture.md` | Add ringtail to diagram + compute layer | | `docs/reference/kubernetes/cluster.md` | Note two clusters, add k3s section | | `docs/reference/reference.md` | Update frigate/ntfy location | | `docs/how-to/plans/completed/operationalize-reolink-camera.md` | Add post-completion migration note | | `CLAUDE.md` | Add k3s-ringtail context guidance | ## Test plan - [ ] `mise run services-check` — all checks pass - [ ] Review each doc for accuracy against deployed state 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Reviewed-on: https://forge.ops.eblu.me/eblume/blumeops/pulls/218

# Frigate
|
|
|
|
Open-source network video recorder (NVR) with object detection. Runs cloud-free with all video stored locally on [[sifaka]].
|
|
|
|

## Architecture

ReoLink Camera (GableCam)

## Cameras
|
|
|
|
| Camera | IP | Location | Objects Tracked |
|
|
|--------|----|----------|-----------------|
|
|
| GableCam | `192.168.1.159` | Front gable | person, car, dog, cat, bird |
|
|
|
|
Camera credentials are stored in 1Password and synced via [[external-secrets]] to the `frigate-camera` Secret.
|
|
|
|
## Detection
|
|
|
|
Object detection runs on [[ringtail]]'s RTX 4080 via the ONNX detector with CUDA execution provider. The model is YOLO-NAS-S (`yolo_nas_s.onnx`). The previous Apple Silicon Detector on [[indri]] has been retired.
|
|
|
|
Two zones are configured: `driveway_entrance` (triggers review alerts for person/car) and `driveway` (triggers review detections).
|
|
|
|
## Retention
|
|
|
|
| Type | Duration | Mode |
|
|
|------|----------|------|
|
|
| Continuous recording | 3 days | all |
|
|
| Alert clips | 30 days | active objects |
|
|
| Detection clips | 14 days | motion |
|
|
| Snapshots | 14 days | — |

|
## Storage
|
|
|
|
| Mount | Backend | Size |
|
|
|-------|---------|------|
|
|
| `/media/frigate` | NFS PV on [[sifaka]] (`/volume1/frigate`) | 2 Ti |
|
|
| `/db` | Local PVC (`frigate-database`) | SQLite |
|
|
| `/dev/shm` | Memory-backed `emptyDir` | 512 Mi |
|
|
|
|
## Alerting (frigate-notify)
|
|
|
|
A separate **frigate-notify** pod (`ghcr.io/0x2142/frigate-notify:v0.3.5`) subscribes to Frigate's MQTT events via Mosquitto and pushes alerts to [[ntfy]] on the `frigate-alerts` topic. Alert messages include action buttons linking back to the Frigate review UI.
