Renovate branches only carry version/digest bumps, so scan-deps, test-backend, test-frontend and build just burn runner time on the box that also serves prod. Static checks and validate still run. Digest and patch updates automerge (playwright, helm and major rules below still override to no-automerge). Also replaces deprecated helm --atomic with --wait --rollback-on-failure.

forust dde6b1c743 fix(deploy): recover helm releases from pending-* and skip helm-owned rollbacks
An --atomic upgrade whose own rollback never finishes leaves the release in pending-*, blocking every future run until a human rolls back (loki rev 18/21). Recover automatically before and after each upgrade, and fail loud when recovery does not land on deployed. Also skip helm-managed workloads in rollback_workloads: rollout undo there would step back to the revision --atomic just escaped.

The smoke stage treats any HTTP response as proof the service is serving,
which is right -- a 302 to a login or a 404 from a path the app does not
serve still means the chain is intact. But a 404 is not evidence of that on
its own: a router Traefik refused to build answers with exactly the same
404 and nothing behind it.

That is not hypothetical. The crowdsec bouncer is a plugin, and when Traefik
cannot fetch it at startup it disables the plugin without failing, then drops
every router whose chain referenced it. Sixteen routes answered 404 and the
stage printed `ok` for all sixteen, because a dropped router and an unserved
path are indistinguishable from outside.

The Kubernetes objects cannot tell us either: the IngressRoute is still
sitting there looking healthy, the router Traefik built from it is simply not
there. So ask Traefik. api.insecure is already on for the internal entrypoint
and the router list says which hosts it matches right now.

Every probed host has to appear in that list. HTTP routers only -- the TCP
ones match on a HostSNI wildcard and the UDP ones carry no rule at all, both
selected by entrypoint and port, so neither can answer the question. A router
mid-rollout is legitimately absent for a moment, so the list is re-read twice
over 20s; a plugin that failed to load stays absent and waiting cannot rescue
it. An unreadable router list fails the stage rather than skipping the check,
since a check that cannot run is not a passing check.

Verified against the live cluster: all 23 public routes have a router and the
stage passes. With gitea, grafana and uptime removed from that list the
probes still answer and the stage fails on exactly those three.

forust c70d2db3a1 ci: deploy the image the commit built, not whatever the tag points at
Every service tracked the mutable `:prod` tag, so a deploy applied whatever
that tag happened to name at the time rather than the commit it was
deploying. A rollback had no way to state what it was rolling back to, and
two deploys of one commit could land different images.

CI now publishes an immutable `sha-<commit12>` tag beside `:prod` on main,
and re-tags it for every image a push did not rebuild. That re-tag copies
the manifest list, so no layer moves. The deploy resolves the immutable tag
to a digest and pins the workload to it, and only falls back to the moving
tag when the immutable one cannot be resolved -- which it says out loud,
because that fallback is the deploy quietly ceasing to be reproducible from
its own commit.

The image list comes out of the tree with git grep rather than being written
out a second time, so adding a service no longer means keeping two lists in
step.

build also gains the three jobs it was skipping -- scan-deps, test-backend,
test-frontend -- so a change that breaks them cannot be tagged at all. The
two run blocks where a mid-loop failure was survivable now run under
set -euo pipefail: the build loop and the service detector both carried on
past an error and could report a green build having produced nothing.

The registry password moves from run: substitution into an env: block. A
quote, a backtick or a $(...) in the password is parsed as shell before the
command ever runs, and a login that failed that way looked exactly like a
build that failed.

The apply and verify timeouts stay at 45 and 30 minutes. The comments now
record the arithmetic that says so rather than leaving the numbers to be
raised on the next scare: three no-op helm upgrades run 3-5 minutes, one
broken release is a single 10 minute rollback because the loop aborts on
the first failure, and the apply loop itself is about a minute. That is
roughly 15 minutes of work against a 45 minute budget. verify is 32
workloads at 8 wide -- four waves of 300 seconds, 20 minutes -- which
leaves room for two serial rollbacks, and only becomes derivable at 45 once
rollback_workloads is parallelised.

registry_digest was written to return an empty string for a ref the registry
does not have, so render_pinned could print "cannot resolve <ref>" and stop.
It could not do that. Every caller runs under set -euo pipefail, pipefail
reports the rightmost non-zero stage, and the failed docker manifest inspect
made the assignment itself fail, which set -e turns into an immediate exit.

render_pinned therefore died silently on the first unresolvable ref: nothing on
stderr, nothing on stdout, exit 1. The apply loop piped that empty stream into
kubectl, so the whole deploy stopped with "error: no objects passed to apply" -
kubectl guessing at a cause, with the actual reason nowhere in the log. The
missing message is the reason the f54589a run looked like a network death.

Reproduced against the old file with a docker stub that always fails: identical
to the ac0f845 log. The || true makes the empty string reachable, and the apply
loop now names the file that failed instead of letting kubectl speak.

The first deploy to actually run died on its very first action, and the
error the other job reported was only the consequence.

DEPLOY_SNAPSHOT_DIR defaulted to /var/backups/homelab-deploy. The deploy
is unprivileged, and this Arch host has no /var/backups at all, so
snapshot_dir's mkdir -p had to create it under root-owned /var and got
Permission denied. It refused to go on, which is exactly what the guard
is for, so no workload was touched - but the verify job then found no
pointer and could only say to go look by hand.

Defaulting to the deploy user's own XDG state directory fixes it with no
root and no setup step, and keeps the guard: an unwritable snapshot dir
still stops the deploy before the first apply.

ssh-run.sh now forwards DEPLOY_SNAPSHOT_DIR too, so the path is
overridable without editing the library. Verified on the workstation as
the unprivileged user: pointer published, commit recorded, 71 workload
generations and three helm releases captured, and the stale-pointer
refusal still works.

verify-k8s watches rollouts, which reports that pods converged. It cannot tell
a converged pod from a serving one. A Service selector pointing at a port
nothing listens on, a 500 from the app itself, a Traefik route that stopped
matching, a pod that OOMKilled early enough to still count as Available for the
duration of the check -- all of those are green at the rollout level and broken
for whoever opens the URL.

So ask what users ask. A smoke stage probes the public route of every active
service and fails on a transport error, a 5xx, or a 000, which curl reports
when it exits cleanly and nothing replied. Everything else passes, including 4xx:
a 404 from a path the service does not serve and a 302 to a login both prove
Traefik matched the host, the Service resolved to a pod and the pod answered,
which is the whole claim being tested.

An empty host list is an error, not a pass. Zero names means the extraction
broke, and reporting a clean deploy off a broken grep is the failure mode this
job exists to catch.

It runs on always() and after verify-k8s rather than before it, because a
rollback is when a route most needs re-checking. It only skips when verify-k8s
did, which is when nothing was deployed at all.

Two things worth writing down, because both were wrong on the first pass:

Stripping comments before reading the routes is not optional. naio and xui are
still in the tree commented out, and a plain grep picks both up and then reports
two services as unreachable when nobody ever deployed them. The apex
forust.xyz also needs a filter that admits it, so /\.forust\.xyz$/ quietly
dropped the site root.

And the 5xx test was written as ${code%%[0-9]*} != 5, which is empty for every
three-digit code, so a 500 was reported as ok. A case glob on the leading digit
is what actually works.

23 routes answer today, in 1.6s. The 5xx branch is the one part no live service
here exercises, so it was checked by running the block over 200 through 599 and
000 rather than against a real response.

forustandClaude Opus 4.8 0691536f28 fix(deploy): roll out our images by digest instead of a moving tag
`kubectl rollout undo` restores the previous ReplicaSet's pod template
verbatim. While that template names a tag, the rollback does not roll back
the image: the tag has already moved, so the reverted pod pulls the very
build that just failed and the cluster stays broken. The safety net added
in 1505b63 therefore could not recover from a bad image.

Pin the digest at apply time. A digest is not knowable when a manifest is
written, so render_pinned resolves it on the way into the cluster and the
digest is never committed. Git keeps a readable `:prod`, Renovate keeps
seeing exactly the manifests it saw before, and the previous revision of
each workload now holds the digest that was actually serving, so undo
restores those exact bytes.

imagePullPolicy is dropped from the manifests rather than set to
IfNotPresent: a reference that is not `:latest` already defaults to it, and
that is what the Kubernetes docs ask for alongside a digest.

An unresolvable image is fatal instead of a warning, because carrying on
would quietly apply a mutable tag again.

restart_stale_images keeps its comparison but is no longer how a rebuild
reaches the cluster -- the pinned template rolls out on its own now. What
is left is a drift check for hand-run `kubectl set image`, so it matches
the container by repository: a pod's status now reports `repo@sha256:...`
while the manifest still says `:prod`.

The build job stops pushing `:latest` altogether, which removes the tag
that a dev branch could otherwise move under a prod deploy.

forust 30d2b83efe chore(reloader): manage the reloader release from the repository
Reloader has been running since 23 September and is what makes the
reloader.stakater.com/auto annotation on a pod template do anything, but the
repository only held a namespace. It was a release someone installed by hand,
so it was invisible to review, invisible to Renovate, and one reinstall away from
being silently dropped.

Declaring it in HELM_RELEASES pins the chart version somewhere Renovate can
update it, and the active marker means the namespace is applied before the
upgrade instead of only existing as a side effect of the original install.

The values file sets nothing the running release does not already do, apart from
resource requests and limits, which the chart leaves empty.

forust db7bccfd89 fix(deploy): restart workloads whose image tag moved past what they run
Our manifests pin images to `:latest`, so a rebuild leaves the pod template
byte-identical. kubectl apply sees no change, creates no ReplicaSet and pulls
nothing, and the cluster keeps serving the previous build. imagePullPolicy:
Always does not help, because it only decides whether a pod that *is* starting
pulls, and no pod ever starts.

All eight workloads that consume an image from our own registry were affected.
Three of them had been running code from 23 September, and the single hardcoded
`rollout restart deployment/userbot-panel` covered one of the eight.

Restarting everything unconditionally was not the answer either: that bounces
healthy services on every deploy, error-pages included, and the brief window
where nothing answers is exactly what error-pages exists to prevent. So compare
what each workload actually runs against what the tag resolves to now, and
restart only the ones that differ. When the tag still points at the running
digest nothing happens, so a redeploy that changed no image is a no-op.

Scope is the repository, deliberately. Five more workloads run our images but
have no manifest here, and they are applied out of band. Walking the manifests
rather than the cluster means this can never reach them.

The digest is resolved for the node architecture. A multi-arch tag also carries
`unknown/unknown` entries for the build attestation, and a pod's imageID is
always the per-platform digest, so comparing the wrong entry would mark
everything stale forever.

Once a restart happens it bumps the generation, which is what makes the change
visible to changed_workloads and therefore watchable and revertible by the
verify stage.
2026-09-27 09:48:04 +02:00
forust 1505b638ce fix(deploy): verify and roll back in a separate job
verify_workloads ended on `[ -s "$failed_file" ]`, which is the opposite
of what its own contract says. A non-empty file means something failed, so
the function returned success exactly when a workload never came up, and
failure when everything was fine. Every rollback was therefore skipped,
and every deploy that changed anything ended red with an empty failure
list and a bogus "Rolled back successfully".

Worse, the check only ever ran at the end of stage_apply_k8s, inside the
same process as the apply. A job killed by timeout-minutes, cancelled by
a new push, or cut off by a dropped SSH connection never reached it, which
is precisely when a rollback matters. The three helm upgrades alone can
consume the whole 30-minute job budget, so that path was reachable.

Verification now lives in its own job, gated on always(), so it runs
whatever happened to the apply. The apply stage publishes its pre-apply
snapshot through DEPLOY_SNAPSHOT_DIR/current before touching anything,
and the verify stage picks it up from there. A snapshot whose recorded
commit does not match the deploy is refused rather than trusted, so a
stale pointer from an earlier run cannot make the rollback revert the
wrong workloads. An unwritable snapshot directory now fails the deploy up
front instead of silently continuing without a way back.

cancel-in-progress becomes false for the same reason: cancelling a run
kills the apply job and takes the verify job with it, which is the failure
this change exists to prevent. Both applies are idempotent, so queueing
costs little. The SSH key moves to a per-run directory removed on exit,
and the deploy is pinned to the exact commit CI validated.
