Provisions a LAN-only browser code editor (Atheos) in an Alpine 3.23 LXC on the scotty PVE node, with armistace/blog cloned and ready to edit. Built via the AI-DLC workflow; the full process trail is in aidlc-docs/. Deliverables - scripts/provision.sh rebuild the guest from scratch (re-runnable) - scripts/update-atheos.sh move Atheos to latest upstream and RE-PIN - scripts/build-and-test.sh captures evidence for every acceptance criterion - files/atheos.conf nginx vhost (socket path byte-matches the FPM pool) - files/ssh-config ~atheos/.ssh/config deploy-key alias - RUNBOOK.md operational guide (START AT STEP 1) - docs/security-notes.md credential model + wider-web hardening TODOs - docs/resiliency-notes.md what a non-PoC deployment would need Design decisions - D1 no git identity is configured by the agent; the operator sets it. Git will refuse the first commit until then, which is deliberate (requirement FR-11). - D2 Atheos pinned to commit f90cd18 (build 611) with a verified tarball sha256, plus update-atheos.sh as the deliberate escape hatch. - D3 nginx :80, web root /var/www/atheos, php-fpm over a unix socket. - D6 git auth is a per-repository DEPLOY KEY scoped to armistace/blog, not a personal access token (a PAT's write:repository scope reaches every repo the account can write). Verified on the live guest (40 checks, 0 failures) - AC-2 Atheos served over HTTP 200 by nginx+php-fpm; socket paths byte-match - AC-3 20 posts + themes/cleanblog present; owned by the php-fpm user - AC-4 all five writable paths writable as the service user - AC-5 remote targets armistace/blog; deploy key authenticates over SSH - AC-6 survival proven with a real container restart, marker byte-identical - AC-8 no python/pelican/pip/make and no DB engine - scope boundary enforced - FR-11 git identity is empty; deploy key mode 600 owned by the service user Traps documented in the RUNBOOK (each cost real debugging time) - The Gitea SSH user is `gitea`, NOT `git` (app.ini SSH_USER=gitea). With `git`, sshd answers "Invalid user git" and rejects before reading authorized_keys, which is indistinguishable from a bad key. - The Gitea SSH endpoint is the LAN address (:22 is not forwarded publicly). - `uptime` and `free` report the PVE HOST inside an LXC without lxcfs, so a container that just restarted can claim days of uptime.

## Workspace Detection
|
|
**Timestamp**: 2026-09-29T05:05:05Z
|
|
**User Input**: "ok back to the plan. We need to engage AIDLC I want an alpine lxc that
|
|
1. install atheos (nginx php etc)
|
|
2. sets up git integrations (if required)
|
|
3. downloads https://git.aridgwayweb.com/armistace/blog ready for me to use
|
|
4. I will set upt he armistace ssh keys myself
|
|
5. is backed by a 20gb root (tiny its basically going to be used to write blog)"
|
|
**AI Response**: "Workspace Detection executed. New project (no existing aidlc-docs/).
|
|
Created workspace scaffold at ~/dev/atheos-blog-lxc. Conducted pre-kickoff reconnaissance:
|
|
(A) blog repo armistace/blog is a PELICAN STATIC SITE (Python), not plain markdown — it has
|
|
src/{content,pelicanconf.py,devpelconf.py,publishconf.py,Makefile,tasks.py,themes/cleanblog},
|
|
builds with `make html` and publishes with `make github`/publishconf.py. Atheos alone CANNOT
|
|
build/regenerate it; it edits the .md sources + git only.
|
|
(B) Atheos requires: PHP + web server (nginx+php-fpm), NO database; writable config.php, data,
|
|
workspace, plugins, themes; optional extensions ZIP, OPENSSL, MBSTRING (needed for plugin
|
|
marketplace); optionally allow_url_fopen=On. Ships git integration (codegit component).
|
|
(C) Alpine 3.23 (alpine-3.23-default_20260116_amd64.tar.xz) is available as a PVE template
|
|
but NOT yet downloaded on any node.
|
|
(D) CORRECTION to the 2026-09-29 Gitea incident record: 192.168.178.151 is LXC 110 (nginxpm /
|
|
NPM), NOT the Gitea Actions runner. The .151 traffic observed against Gitea was NPM proxying
|
|
Gitea's own web traffic; the runners run on the k3s nodes (k3s-3 .161, k3s-2 .162). Memory
|
|
corrected accordingly.
|
|
(E) git.aridgwayweb.com resolves to a PUBLIC IP (115.70.15.16) — Gitea is internet-facing via NPM."

|
**User Input**: (none yet — awaiting answers)
|
|
**AI Response**: "Created aidlc-docs scaffold (aidlc-state.md, audit.md, plans/, requirements/,
|
|
story-artifacts/, design-artifacts/, incidents/). Generated
|
|
aidlc-docs/requirements/requirement-verification-questions.md with 5 questions + stated
|
|
assumptions. Key gate: Q1 asks whether the box must also BUILD the Pelican site (Python) or is
|
|
an editor only (Atheos/PHP), because the blog repo is a Pelican static site, not plain markdown.
|
|
Presented the questions inline in Matrix (Andrew reviews in-chat, not in .md files)."

## Requirements Analysis — Gate Answers
|
|
**Timestamp**: 2026-09-29T05:10:00Z
|
|
**User Input** (verbatim):
|
|
"1. A - It doesn't need to build the pipeline is well known just writing markdown is more than enough
|
|
2. I'll supply them, give me the ip address and I'll ssh in and set up my credentials in gitea, you can't do this and I want it under armistace
|
|
3. scotty
|
|
4. LAN only
|
|
5. A
|
|
6. clone it but leave instructions to get it over to ssh once I add the key"
|
|
**AI Response**: "Answers recorded: Q1=A (editor only; Pelican build explicitly out of scope — the
|
|
existing pipeline handles it, 'just writing markdown is more than enough'); Q2=Andrew supplies
|
|
credentials himself over SSH, under the `armistace` identity (agent must NOT set an armistace git
|
|
identity or credentials); Q3=PVE node **scotty** (.69) — verified: 15.7 GB RAM (12.1 GB available),
|
|
8 GB swap, scotty-local-lvm thin pool 771 GB free, in-use VMIDs 104-107/119/125/126/133-135 so
|
|
**136 is free**; Alpine template not yet downloaded on scotty; Q4=LAN only (no NPM/DNS/forward);
|
|
Q5=A (opt out of security+resiliency, document the TODOs); Q6=clone the repo but leave RUNBOOK
|
|
instructions for switching the remote to SSH once the key is added."

|
"1. B jI'll set it in there, remind me in the runbbok
|
|
2. good idea for now, but leave an update script that will reclone at latest and pin
|
|
3. looks good to me"
|
|
**AI Response**: "Answers recorded. Q1=B — the agent configures **NO git identity** (user.name/
|
|
user.email left unset); the RUNBOOK must explicitly prompt the operator to set them as their first
|
|
action after SSH. Q2 — pin Atheos to a resolved commit SHA **and** additionally ship an
|
|
**update/re-pin script** that re-clones Atheos at latest and re-pins the SHA. Q3 — layout accepted

## Application Design — Security Model Decision (D6)
|
|
**Timestamp**: 2026-09-29T05:22:00Z
|
|
**User Input** (verbatim): "would it be safer to have an atheos user or use a application key? lets get this security model for the key right incase I want to expose to the wider web"
|
|
**AI Response**: "Researched against official sources + the live 1.27.3 instance rather than opining.
|
|
Verified: (a) Gitea PAT scopes are ROUTE GROUPS (e.g. write:repository) matched against the USER's
|
|
access, NOT per-repository — so a stolen armistace PAT reaches every repo the account can write;
|
|
the instance's DB shows armistace holding 8 tokens, one with scope `all`. (b) Deploy keys are
|
|
genuinely per-repository: swagger confirms /repos/{owner}/{repo}/keys (get,post,delete) and the
|
|
DeployKey schema carries read_only. (c) CVE-2026-28744 (fixed 1.26.2) confirms the scope mechanism
|
|
is real — 'repository-scoped access-token permissions on repository operations'.
|
|
RECOMMENDED and user ACCEPTED a per-repo deploy key over both a PAT and a dedicated Gitea user.
|
|
Rationale: a dedicated user still owns/needs access to `blog`, so it reduces nothing while adding a
|
|
credential and muddying attribution; the deploy key bounds blast radius to ONE repo natively.
|
|
Recorded as design decision **D6**. Wrote docs/security-notes.md (S-1..S-14 for wider-web exposure)
|
|
and docs/resiliency-notes.md (R-1..R-8). Agent confirmed it CANNOT add the deploy key itself (API
|
|
returns 'user should be an owner or a collaborator with admin write') — operator will add the public
|
|
half in the repo."
|
|
**Context**: INCEPTION — Application Design (security model finalised)
|
|
|
|
## Application Design — Approval
|
|
**Timestamp**: 2026-09-29T05:23:00Z
|
|
**User Input** (verbatim): "I like the model lets go with that. When you give me the public key (in here) I'll get it in the repo"
|
|
**AI Response**: "Design APPROVED including D6. Proceeding to Units Generation, then CONSTRUCTION."
|
|
**Context**: INCEPTION — Application Design complete → Units Generation
|
|
|
|
## Units Generation — Approval
|
|
**Timestamp**: 2026-09-29T05:26:00Z
|
|
**AI Prompt**: "Approve these 5 units and the U4 two-phase approach (clone over HTTPS now, deploy key generated + public half handed to operator, SSH switch as Phase 2 once the key is installed)?"
|
|
**User Response** (verbatim): "phase 2 is all you I'll give you the go ahead and you can switch it over. lets get building"
|
|
**Status**: APPROVED — units approved; U4 two-phase approved; **Phase 2 (SSH remote switch) is agent-owned, to be executed once the operator signals the deploy key is installed**. Construction to run AUTONOMOUSLY per the user's standing preference (no per-unit gates; stop only for hard blockers).
|
|
**Context**: INCEPTION complete → CONSTRUCTION PHASE (Infrastructure Design → Code Generation → Build and Test)

## OPERATIONAL NOTE — pre-existing Gitea CVE remediation (executed 2026-09-29, pre-construction)
|
|
**Timestamp**: 2026-09-29T05:26:00Z
|
|
**AI Response**: "Recorded for trail integrity: earlier in this same session (before this AI-DLC workflow
|
|
was engaged) the Gitea instance was found compromised via CVE-2026-60004 and remediated + upgraded
|
|
1.23.8 → 1.27.3. This deviates from the stage order — it happened before Inception. It is NOT an
|
|
output of any stage of this workflow. Full record: spine partition hermes-ops, source_ref
|
|
`gitea-cve-2026-60004-incident`. Also corrected a factual error in that record during this session:
|
|
192.168.178.151 is LXC 110 (nginxpm), NOT the Actions runner (user correction: '161 is the runner')."
