Erich Blume b0bac91ca9 Fix frontmatter field name for Quartz date display (#158)
## Summary

- Rename `date-modified` -> `modified` in all 80 docs and the `docs-check-frontmatter` task

Quartz's `CreatedModifiedDate` plugin recognizes `modified`, `lastmod`, `updated`, and `last-modified` — but not `date-modified`. The wrong field name caused Quartz to ignore frontmatter dates entirely and fall through to filesystem timestamps (UTC inside Dagger), showing Feb 12 on pages built late on Feb 11 PST.

## Test plan

- [x] `mise run docs-check-frontmatter` passes
- [ ] Kick off docs release after merge — verify rendered dates match frontmatter values

eblume/alloy Grafana Alloy fork (CGO build)
eblume/tesla_auth Tesla OAuth helper
Helm chart mirrors cloudnative-pg-charts, grafana-helm-charts

CI/CD (Forgejo Actions)

Runner: Kubernetes pod with Docker-in-Docker sidecar

  • Namespace: forgejo-runner
  • Labels: k8s
  • ArgoCD app: forgejo-runner

Workflows: .forgejo/workflows/

  • build-container.yaml - Container image builds on tag
  • build-blumeops.yaml - Documentation builds and releases

Secrets (Forgejo Config)

Server configuration secrets managed via 1Password → Ansible:

  • lfs-jwt-secret, internal-token, oauth2-jwt-secret - Forgejo server tokens
  • runner_reg - Runner registration token (also in k8s via external-secrets)

Forgejo Actions Secrets

Repository-level secrets for CI/CD workflows, synced from 1Password via Ansible.

Secret 1Password Field Used By Purpose
ARGOCD_AUTH_TOKEN argocd_token build-blumeops.yaml Sync docs app after release

These secrets are injected as ${{ secrets.SECRET_NAME }} in workflow files.

IaC: The forgejo_actions_secrets Ansible role syncs these secrets from 1Password to Forgejo via the Forgejo API. Run with:

mise run provision-indri -- --tags forgejo_actions_secrets

API Token Setup (Manual, One-Time)

The Ansible role authenticates to the Forgejo API using a Personal Access Token (PAT). This PAT must be created manually:

  1. Go to https://forge.ops.eblu.me/user/settings/applications
  2. Create a new token with write:repository scope
  3. Store it in 1Password → "Forgejo Secrets" item → api-token field

This is a bootstrapping requirement - the PAT enables IaC for all other secrets.

Future: Public Access

Forgejo can be exposed publicly at forge.eblu.me via flyio-proxy. Since Forgejo runs natively on indri (not in k8s), the pattern is:

  1. Create a k8s ExternalName Service pointing to indri's Tailscale IP
  2. Create a Tailscale Ingress with tailscale.com/tags: "tag:k8s,tag:flyio-target"
  3. Add the nginx server block and DNS CNAME

Exposing a dynamic, authenticated service like Forgejo requires a full security review before going live:

  • Disable open user registration (require invites or admin approval)
  • Configure fail2ban on indri with a filter for Forgejo's log format
  • Ensure Forgejo logs the forwarded client IP (X-Real-IP) rather than the proxy's Tailscale IP
  • Audit repository visibility defaults and permissions
  • Rehearse the break-glass shutoff (mise run fly-shutoff)

See expose-service-publicly for the full howto and dynamic service checklist.
