Retiring Authentik deleted the iam-jobs Application, so k8s/infra/iam stopped
being synced. The new smtp-gotify relay would have sat in git and never been
created.
Add an iam-support Application for that path, and drop the stale
rbac-dashboard-rolebinding reference from its kustomization: the file went away
with Authentik, and a missing resource fails the whole app.
ZITADEL sends verification codes and password resets by SMTP only, and this
cluster has no mail path. Every human user therefore sits at
verified_email = empty and can never finish a first login, at ZITADEL or at
Forgejo.
Add an smtp-gotify relay in the iam namespace: it accepts plain SMTP on :2525
and forwards each message to the existing Gotify instance, so codes arrive on
the phone through gotify/igotify instead of email.
Point DefaultInstance.SMTPConfiguration at that Service with TLS off, because
the relay speaks plain SMTP inside the cluster. The relay holds the Gotify app
token in a SOPS-encrypted Secret; values never carry the token.
Zitadel is running and has provisioned OIDC clients for all 12 consumers
(state.json: kubernetes, paperless, forgejo, argocd, grafana, immich, minio,
vault, poimen, api-gw, queue-sqs, homarr). Authentik's remaining job was to
serve until the last consumer moved.
Remove every Authentik artifact from GitOps:
- ArgoCD Application `authentik` and its Helm values
- ArgoCD Application `iam-jobs` (provisioner RBAC + migration job)
- ArgoCD Application `oidc-bootstrap` (one-shot apiserver restart)
- authentik-db CNPG cluster definition
- authentik-secrets SOPS file and secret-generator entry
- Ingress rule, cloudflared tunnel hostname, CoreDNS rewrite
- Prometheus alerts and ServiceMonitor
- admin OIDC ClusterRoleBinding provisioning binding
- scripts/iam/provision-rbac.py (the Authentik provisioner)
The chart repo https://charts.goauthentik.io is removed from the AppProject.
Kube-apiserver OIDC and consumer configs are switched to Zitadel in the
local cluster-config (gitignored) and applied separately via talosctl.
- Move authentik-provision.py to scripts/iam/ (manual-only)
- Remove job/RBAC resources (not needed for local runs)
- Use public URL directly (no sed substitution needed)
- Add app password support via set_key endpoint
- Support both password grant and client_credentials
