Problem

The Flux GitRepository source for leeworks-agents/api-company (manifests at flux/api-company-source/) requires a Kubernetes secret named gitea-leeworks-agents-token in the flux-system namespace. Without it, Flux cannot authenticate to Gitea over HTTPS and the api-company GitRepository will never become READY=True.

This is blocker #3 in STATUS.md and item #1 in docs/secrets-checklist.md, but it has no dedicated tracking issue — it is currently buried inside issue #2 (the broader Flux wiring task). This issue gives it its own trackable entry, consistent with #70 (grafana-admin), #73 (gatus-slack-webhook), and #74 (GITEA_TOKEN).

What the operator must do

  1. Generate a Gitea personal access token for the leeworks-agents user:

    • Gitea → User Settings → Applications → Generate Token
    • Scopes: read:repository
    • Save the token somewhere safe
  2. Create the secret in the cluster:

kubectl create secret generic gitea-leeworks-agents-token \
  -n flux-system \
  --from-literal=username=leeworks-agents \
  --from-literal=password=<GITEA_TOKEN>
  1. Verify it exists:
kubectl get secret gitea-leeworks-agents-token -n flux-system
  1. Trigger Flux reconciliation of the api-company source:
flux reconcile source git api-company

Acceptance criteria

  • kubectl get secret gitea-leeworks-agents-token -n flux-system returns the secret
  • flux get sources git api-company shows READY=True
  • flux get kustomizations api-company shows READY=True (once Talos PR from #2 is merged)

Dependencies

Note

This is a manual operator task — the agent cannot create Kubernetes secrets directly.

(Reference: ROADMAP.md §Phase 0; docs/secrets-checklist.md item #1; STATUS.md Blockers #3)

## Problem The Flux `GitRepository` source for `leeworks-agents/api-company` (manifests at `flux/api-company-source/`) requires a Kubernetes secret named `gitea-leeworks-agents-token` in the `flux-system` namespace. Without it, Flux cannot authenticate to Gitea over HTTPS and the `api-company` GitRepository will never become `READY=True`. This is **blocker #3** in `STATUS.md` and item #1 in `docs/secrets-checklist.md`, but it has no dedicated tracking issue — it is currently buried inside issue #2 (the broader Flux wiring task). This issue gives it its own trackable entry, consistent with #70 (grafana-admin), #73 (gatus-slack-webhook), and #74 (GITEA_TOKEN). ## What the operator must do 1. Generate a Gitea personal access token for the `leeworks-agents` user: - Gitea → User Settings → Applications → Generate Token - Scopes: `read:repository` - Save the token somewhere safe 2. Create the secret in the cluster: ```bash kubectl create secret generic gitea-leeworks-agents-token \ -n flux-system \ --from-literal=username=leeworks-agents \ --from-literal=password=<GITEA_TOKEN> ``` 3. Verify it exists: ```bash kubectl get secret gitea-leeworks-agents-token -n flux-system ``` 4. Trigger Flux reconciliation of the api-company source: ```bash flux reconcile source git api-company ``` ## Acceptance criteria - `kubectl get secret gitea-leeworks-agents-token -n flux-system` returns the secret - `flux get sources git api-company` shows `READY=True` - `flux get kustomizations api-company` shows `READY=True` (once Talos PR from #2 is merged) ## Dependencies - Depends on leeworks-agents/api-company#47 (upstream `0xWheatyz/api-company` repo must exist first) - Depends on leeworks-agents/api-company#2 (Talos PR must add the `api-company` GitRepository + Kustomization manifests) - Unblocks leeworks-agents/api-company#2, #3, #4, #7, #8 (all require Flux to be active) ## Note This is a **manual operator task** — the agent cannot create Kubernetes secrets directly. _(Reference: ROADMAP.md §Phase 0; docs/secrets-checklist.md item #1; STATUS.md Blockers #3)_

Triage — @devops / 2026-05-28 (night cycle)

This is a manual operator task — the agent cannot create Kubernetes secrets directly.

Status: Awaiting operator action. All prerequisites are clearly documented.

Summary of action needed:

  1. Generate a Gitea PAT for the leeworks-agents user (scope: read:repository) via Gitea → User Settings → Applications → Generate Token
  2. Run:
kubectl create secret generic gitea-leeworks-agents-token \
  -n flux-system \
  --from-literal=username=leeworks-agents \
  --from-literal=password=<GITEA_TOKEN>
  1. Trigger reconcile: flux reconcile source git api-company

This is blocker #3 in STATUS.md. Once completed it unblocks Flux wiring for the entire api-company GitOps pipeline (issues #2, #3, #4, #7, #8).

No agent-implementable work exists here. Issue remains open until operator confirms completion.
