# Kubernetes Secrets Checklist

All infrastructure blockers reduce to creating six Kubernetes secrets and one Gitea Actions secret.
Follow this list top-to-bottom; each step unblocks the next.

**Human operator only** — the agent cannot log into Gitea's admin panel or run `kubectl` in the cluster.

---

## Checklist

- [ ] 1. `gitea-leeworks-agents-token` (flux-system) — unblocks Flux GitRepository auth
- [ ] 2. `gitea-runner-token` (gitea-runner) — unblocks Gitea Actions runner registration
- [ ] 3. `grafana-admin` (monitoring) — unblocks Grafana login
- [ ] 4. `gatus-slack-webhook` (monitoring) — unblocks Gatus alert notifications
- [ ] 5. `GITEA_TOKEN` in each API repo's Actions Secrets — unblocks CI image push
- [ ] 6. Gitea packages enabled + DNS record for `registry.leeworks.dev` — unblocks image push to registry
- [ ] 7. Add api-company Flux source + kustomization to 0xWheatyz/Talos — unblocks all GitOps reconciliation
- [ ] 8. `gitea-registry` (zip-enrichment, holidays, air-quality, docs-site) — imagePullSecret for pods pulling from `registry.leeworks.dev`
- [ ] 9. `gitea-image-automation-token` (flux-system) — write-scoped token for Flux ImageUpdateAutomation to push image-tag commits

## Secret Details

### 1. `gitea-leeworks-agents-token`

| Field     | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Name      | `gitea-leeworks-agents-token` |
| Namespace | `flux-system` |
| Purpose   | Flux `GitRepository` authenticates to Gitea over HTTPS to pull `leeworks-agents/api-company` |
| Source    | Gitea web UI → User Settings → Applications → Generate Token (scopes: `read:repository`) |
| Unblocks  | Issue #2 (Flux GitRepository + Kustomization for api-company) |

```bash
kubectl create secret generic gitea-leeworks-agents-token \
  -n flux-system \
  --from-literal=username=leeworks-agents \
  --from-literal=password=<GITEA_TOKEN>
```

---

### 2. `gitea-runner-token`

| Field     | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Name      | `gitea-runner-token` |
| Namespace | `gitea-runner` |
| Purpose   | The `gitea-act-runner` HelmRelease reads this token to register the runner with Gitea |
| Source    | Gitea Admin Panel → Site Administration → Actions → Runners → **Create new Runner** — copy registration token |
| Unblocks  | Issue #3 (gitea-act-runner Flux deployment) |

```bash
kubectl create secret generic gitea-runner-token \
  -n gitea-runner \
  --from-literal=token=<RUNNER_TOKEN>
```

After creating the secret, Flux reconciles the `gitea-act-runner` HelmRelease and the runner appears as **Online** in Gitea Admin → Actions → Runners.

---

### 3. `grafana-admin`

| Field     | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Name      | `grafana-admin` |
| Namespace | `monitoring` |
| Purpose   | Sets the Grafana `admin` user password on first boot |
| Source    | Choose a strong password and store it in a password manager |
| Unblocks  | Issue #7 (Prometheus + Grafana HelmRelease) |

```bash
kubectl create secret generic grafana-admin \
  -n monitoring \
  --from-literal=admin-password=<PASSWORD>
```

Grafana will be accessible at `https://grafana.leeworks.dev` (login: `admin` / `<PASSWORD>`).

---

### 4. `gatus-slack-webhook`

| Field     | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Name      | `gatus-slack-webhook` |
| Namespace | `monitoring` |
| Purpose   | Gatus posts downtime alerts to a Slack channel via incoming webhook |
| Source    | Slack → Your workspace → Apps → Incoming Webhooks → Add to Slack → copy webhook URL |
| Unblocks  | Issue #8 (Gatus status page at `status.leeworks.dev`) |

```bash
kubectl create secret generic gatus-slack-webhook \
  -n monitoring \
  --from-literal=url=https://hooks.slack.com/services/YOUR/WEBHOOK/URL
```

---

### 5. `GITEA_TOKEN` — Gitea Actions Secret (per repo)

| Field    | Value |
|----------|-------|
| Name     | `GITEA_TOKEN` |
| Scope    | Gitea Actions Secret — set in each repo's Settings, **not** a Kubernetes secret |
| Purpose  | CI workflows use this token to push container images to `registry.leeworks.dev` |
| Source   | Same token as step 1, or a dedicated CI token with `write:packages` scope |
| Unblocks | CI pipelines for all three API repos |

Set in Gitea web UI for **each** of these repos:
- `leeworks-agents/api-company`
- `leeworks-agents/zip-enrichment`
- `leeworks-agents/holidays`
- `leeworks-agents/air-quality`

Path: **Repo → Settings → Actions → Secrets → Add Secret**
- Name: `GITEA_TOKEN`
- Value: `<GITEA_TOKEN>`

---

### 6. Enable Gitea Packages + DNS for `registry.leeworks.dev`

This is a Gitea instance configuration step, not a Kubernetes secret.

| Step | Action |
|------|--------|
| 6a   | Enable packages in Gitea `app.ini`: set `[packages] ENABLED = true` then restart Gitea |
| 6b   | Add DNS A record: `registry.leeworks.dev` → cluster ingress IP |

Find cluster ingress IP:
```bash
kubectl get svc -n ingress-nginx
```

See `docs/registry.md` for context on why the Gitea built-in registry was chosen.

Unblocks: Issue #4 (container registry), and transitively all CI image-push workflows.

---

### 7. Add api-company Flux Source + Kustomization to 0xWheatyz/Talos

Reference manifests are already committed at `flux/api-company-source/` in this repo.
The operator must copy them into the Talos cluster repo so FluxCD picks them up:

```
0xWheatyz/Talos:testing1/first-cluster/cluster/flux/api-company-source/
```

Unblocks: Issue #2 (Flux reconciliation of all `flux/` manifests in this repo).

---

## Dependency Order

```
7 (Flux wiring)          → all flux/ resources reconcile
1 (gitea-leeworks-token) → Flux can pull this repo over HTTPS
2 (gitea-runner-token)   → runner online → CI runs
3 (grafana-admin)        → Grafana login works
4 (gatus-slack-webhook)  → Gatus alerting works
5 + 6 (GITEA_TOKEN + registry packages) → CI pushes images → API services deploy
8 (gitea-registry)       → pods can pull images from registry.leeworks.dev → services start
9 (gitea-image-automation-token) → Flux ImageUpdateAutomation pushes tag-update commits
```

Once all nine items are complete, the full stack (runner, registry, Prometheus, Grafana, Gatus, docs-site, three API services) reconciles automatically via FluxCD with no further manual steps.

---

### 8. `gitea-registry` — imagePullSecret for API service namespaces

| Field     | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Name      | `gitea-registry` |
| Namespaces | `zip-enrichment`, `holidays`, `air-quality`, `docs-site` |
| Type      | `kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson` |
| Purpose   | Allows pods to pull images from `registry.leeworks.dev` without ImagePullBackOff |
| Source    | Gitea token with `read:packages` scope (can reuse the same token as step 1 if it has that scope) |
| Unblocks  | Issues #58 (Phase 0 hard deploy blocker) and transitively Phase 3 service deploys |

```bash
for NS in zip-enrichment holidays air-quality docs-site; do
  kubectl create secret docker-registry gitea-registry \
    --namespace=$NS \
    --docker-server=registry.leeworks.dev \
    --docker-username=leeworks-agents \
    --docker-password=<GITEA_TOKEN_WITH_READ_PACKAGES> \
    --docker-email=agent@leeworks.dev
done
```

Verify:
```bash
kubectl get secret gitea-registry -n zip-enrichment -o jsonpath='{.type}'
# expected: kubernetes.io/dockerconfigjson
```

---

### 9. `gitea-image-automation-token` — Flux ImageUpdateAutomation write token

| Field     | Value |
|-----------|-------|
| Name      | `gitea-image-automation-token` |
| Namespace | `flux-system` |
| Purpose   | Allows Flux `ImageUpdateAutomation` to push image-tag update commits back to `leeworks-agents/api-company` |
| Source    | Gitea token with **`write:repository`** scope (the existing `gitea-leeworks-agents-token` only has `read:repository` — create a separate token or verify scope) |
| Unblocks  | Issue #57 (Flux ImageUpdateAutomation for api-company) |

```bash
kubectl create secret generic gitea-image-automation-token \
  -n flux-system \
  --from-literal=username=leeworks-agents \
  --from-literal=password=<TOKEN_WITH_WRITE_REPO_SCOPE>
```

Verify after creation:
```bash
flux get imageupdateautomations -n flux-system
# Expected: api-company shows READY=True
```

> **Note:** If you create a new token with `write:repository` scope, keep the existing `gitea-leeworks-agents-token` for read-only Flux GitRepository pulls and use this new secret exclusively for `ImageUpdateAutomation`.
