Weekly non-local-container task: localize the Tailscale operator stack on **both clusters**. ## What - **`containers/tailscale-operator/`** (new) — builds `cmd/k8s-operator` v1.94.2 from the forge mirror, mirroring upstream's mkctr recipe (`/usr/local/bin/operator`, `ts_kube,ts_package_container` go tags, version stamps). `container.py` (dagger) for indri/arm64; `default.nix` for ringtail/amd64. - **`containers/tailscale/container.py`** (new) — dagger/arm64 build of the proxy image (containerboot), mirroring the upstream Dockerfile (iptables-legacy symlinks, `/tailscale/run.sh` compat). Ringtail already consumes the existing nix build; this completes parity for indri. - **Version pinned at v1.94.2** (same as currently deployed) — this PR is a pure supply-chain swap, no version change. v1.96.x is avoided deliberately (MagicDNS-in-containers regression). - Docs-first: tailscale-operator card gains **Local Images** and **Rollout Safety** sections. ## Rollout plan (after image builds) 1. Manifest commit: per-overlay `images:` override for the operator + ProxyClass strategic-merge patch on indri (kustomize `images:` can't touch CR fields). 2. `argocd app set tailscale-operator --revision <branch> && argocd app sync` — indri first, verify, then ringtail. 3. **Shadow-device safety**: device identity lives in the tailscale state Secrets; an image swap re-uses existing node keys, so no `-1` clones. State Secrets are not touched. Post-sync verification: pod health, device names unchanged, `mise run services-check`. ## Follow-ups (not this PR) - `dnsconfig` nameserver image (`tailscale/k8s-nameserver:stable`) still upstream. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Reviewed-on: #374 |

blumeops
aka "Blue Mops"
Tools and configuration for Erich Blume's personal infrastructure, orchestrated across a Tailscale tailnet.
This is a homelab, but it's also a testing ground for AI-assisted infrastructure development. Much of this codebase was initially co-authored with Claude Code, and the repo places heavy emphasis on documentation, process, and change classification to make that collaboration work well. I don't know entirely how I feel about LLMs in our current era (there are real concerns about how training data is sourced and energy subsidy) but it felt important to learn how to work with these tools.
The full documentation is published at docs.eblu.me
and lives in the docs/ directory, structured around the
Diataxis framework and designed to be compatible with
Obsidian/Obsidian.nvim.
What runs here
Services are a mix of Kubernetes pods (managed by ArgoCD), macOS LaunchAgent services (managed by Ansible), and NixOS systemd services (managed by Nix flakes), all connected via Tailscale:
- Indri (Mac Mini M1) - primary server. Most services run in Minikube via ArgoCD; Forgejo, Caddy, and others run natively as LaunchAgent services via Ansible.
- Ringtail (NixOS desktop, RTX 4080) - GPU workloads (Frigate NVR, Authentik SSO) on k3s, plus NixOS systemd services.
- Sifaka (Synology NAS) - backup target and bulk storage.
Notable services include Grafana/Prometheus/Loki observability, Immich photos, Jellyfin media, Forgejo git forge, a Zot container registry, and more. Public access is routed through a Fly.io proxy; everything else is tailnet-only.

Getting started
You'll need Homebrew and mise:
brew bundle # install CLI tools (argocd, tea, flyctl, etc.)
mise install # install managed toolchains (ansible, pulumi, dagger, etc.)
prek install # set up git hooks
Git hooks (via prek) enforce secret scanning
(TruffleHog), linting, formatting, and custom checks like doc link validation
and the Mikado branch invariant. They run automatically on git commit.
Operational tasks are driven through mise. Run mise tasks to see what's
available. Key examples:
mise run provision-indri # deploy to indri via Ansible
mise run services-check # verify service health
mise run container-list # list tracked container images
AI-assisted development
This repo is designed to be worked on by both humans and AI agents. The
AGENTS.md file provides shared instructions for agentic tools, and the
docs/tutorials/ai-assistance-guide.md
explains the full workflow.
Changes are classified before starting work:
- C0 - quick fixes, committed directly to main
- C1 - feature branch + PR, documentation written before code
- C2 - multi-phase work using the Mikado method for dependency tracking
See the agent change process for details.
