Erich Blume ecded30073 Make valkey local on ringtail (nix amd64) + bump to 8.1.7 (#362)
## Summary

Weekly "make one non-local container local" pickup: immich-ringtail still pulled `docker.io/valkey/valkey:8.1.6` because the existing `containers/valkey/container.py` build was arm64-only.

- Adds `containers/valkey/default.nix` — nix-built amd64 valkey image, packaged by the ringtail nix-container-builder runner using `pkgs.dockerTools.buildLayeredImage`. Mirrors the existing `containers/authentik-redis/default.nix` pattern.
- `containers/valkey/container.py` keeps building the Alpine arm64 image for paperless on indri. Bumped both builds to upstream valkey 8.1.7 (Alpine 3.22 now ships `8.1.7-r0`; nixpkgs has 8.1.7).
- Splits `VERSION` (upstream app) from `ALPINE_PIN` (apk pin) in `container.py` so both build files can declare the same upstream version and pass `container-version-check`.
- Updates `service-versions.yaml`: current-version 8.1.7, refreshed last-reviewed, upstream-source now points at the canonical valkey-io releases page.
- Switches kustomizations:
  - `immich-ringtail/kustomization.yaml`: `docker.io/valkey/valkey:8.1.6` → `registry.ops.eblu.me/blumeops/valkey:v8.1.7-02859c5-nix`, comment updated.
  - `paperless/kustomization.yaml`: `v8.1.6-r0-fabca04` → `v8.1.7-02859c5`.

## Build

build-container run #563 — both jobs succeeded after a transient runner crash on the first dispatch (#562 build-nix), which surfaced two separate bugs that landed in a separate C0 on main:

- `runner-logs` silently returned 0 with no output when the log file didn't exist on indri
- `ssh indri` swallowing remote exit codes (fish login shell), which the wrapper now works around via a stdout marker

## Test plan

- [ ] `argocd app set immich-ringtail --revision valkey-nix && argocd app sync immich-ringtail`
- [ ] `argocd app set paperless --revision valkey-nix && argocd app sync paperless`
- [ ] Both valkey pods come Ready and start serving on :6379
- [ ] Immich app + paperless can read/write their respective cache
- [ ] After merge: rebuild from squashed main commit + update kustomization tags (squash-tag follow-up)

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.
