Erich Blume b197bd5f58 Adopt Dagger CI for docs build (Phase 2) (#157 )

## Summary

Migrates the docs build pipeline to Dagger (Phase 2 of the Dagger CI adoption plan).

- **Backfill `date-modified` frontmatter** on all 80 docs — Dagger's `--src=.` excludes `.git`, so Quartz can't use git history for page dates. Frontmatter dates work with or without git.
- **New `docs-check-frontmatter` mise task + pre-commit hook** — validates all docs have `title`, `tags`, and `date-modified`
- **New Dagger functions** — `build_changelog` (towncrier in Python container) and `build_docs` (chains changelog → Quartz build in Node container, returns tarball)
- **Simplified CI workflow** — the ~44-line inline Quartz build (clone, npm ci, build, tar, cleanup) is replaced by `dagger call build-docs`. Changelog step remains local on the runner since towncrier needs to modify the host working tree for the git commit.

### Design decisions

- **Towncrier runs twice in CI**: once inside Dagger (for the docs tarball) and once on the runner (for the git commit). This is intentional — Dagger's directory export is additive and can't delete the consumed changelog fragments from the host.
- **Artifact hosting stays on Forgejo Releases** (not migrated to Forgejo Packages as the plan doc originally suggested). That migration can happen independently.
- **`date-modified` frontmatter** preserved even though `build_changelog` installs git — the git there is only for towncrier's `git add` call, not for history. The local iteration story (`dagger call build-docs --src=. --version=dev` with uncommitted changes) depends on frontmatter dates.

### Local iteration

```bash
dagger call build-docs --src=. --version=dev export --path=./docs-dev.tar.gz
tar tf docs-dev.tar.gz | head -20
```

## Deployment and Testing

- [x] `dagger call build-docs --src=. --version=dev` produces valid 1.1MB tarball (149 HTML pages)
- [x] Pre-commit hooks pass (including new `docs-check-frontmatter`)
- [ ] Full `workflow_dispatch` run after merge

Caddy

Reverse proxy for *.ops.eblu.me services with automatic TLS via ACME DNS-01.

Quick Reference

Property	Value
Domain	`*.ops.eblu.me`
HTTPS Port	443
Config	`ansible/roles/caddy/templates/Caddyfile.j2`
Binary	Custom build with Gandi DNS plugin

Why Caddy?

Caddy provides a single TLS termination point for all BlumeOps services:

Wildcard certificate for *.ops.eblu.me via Let's Encrypt
DNS-01 challenge using Gandi API (no port 80 needed)
Unified access from k8s pods, containers, and tailnet clients

See routing for when to use *.ops.eblu.me vs *.tail8d86e.ts.net.

Proxied Services

Indri-Local Services

Subdomain	Backend	Service
`forge.ops.eblu.me`	`localhost:3001`	forgejo
`registry.ops.eblu.me`	`localhost:5050`	zot
`jellyfin.ops.eblu.me`	`localhost:8096`	jellyfin

Kubernetes Services

K8s services are proxied via their Tailscale Ingress endpoints:

Subdomain	Backend	Service
`grafana.ops.eblu.me`	`grafana.tail8d86e.ts.net`	grafana
`argocd.ops.eblu.me`	`argocd.tail8d86e.ts.net`	argocd
`docs.ops.eblu.me`	`docs.tail8d86e.ts.net`	docs (now publicly available at `docs.eblu.me` via flyio-proxy)
`feed.ops.eblu.me`	`feed.tail8d86e.ts.net`	miniflux
...	...	(see defaults/main.yml for full list)

TCP Services (Layer 4)

Port	Backend	Service
2222	`localhost:2200`	Forgejo SSH
5432	`pg.tail8d86e.ts.net:5432`	postgresql

Configuration

Caddy is managed via the caddy Ansible role:

# Deploy caddy changes
mise run provision-indri -- --tags caddy

Key files:

ansible/roles/caddy/defaults/main.yml - Service definitions
ansible/roles/caddy/templates/Caddyfile.j2 - Caddy config template

Secrets

Secret	Source	Description
`GANDI_BEARER_TOKEN`	1Password	API token for DNS-01 challenges

The token is written to ~/.config/caddy/gandi-token (chmod 0600) and sourced by the Caddy wrapper script.

Security Considerations

Caddy has no authentication layer — it is a plain reverse proxy. Access control relies entirely on Tailscale ACLs restricting which devices can reach indri on port 443. Currently tag:homelab and autogroup:admin can reach Caddy. The flyio-proxy no longer routes through Caddy — it pushes logs and metrics directly to loki and prometheus via their Tailscale Ingress endpoints.

Custom Build

Caddy is built from source with the Gandi DNS plugin:

# Build location
~/code/3rd/caddy/bin/caddy

The build includes the github.com/caddy-dns/gandi plugin for ACME DNS-01 challenges.

gandi - DNS hosting and ACME DNS-01 provider
routing - Service routing architecture
forgejo - Git forge (proxied by Caddy)
zot - Container registry (proxied by Caddy)
tailscale-operator - K8s services use Tailscale Ingress, then Caddy
