Adds terraform/zitadel: the provisioning half the ArgoCD wiring left open.
It declares 1 project, 19 project roles, 12 OIDC applications, 5 machine users
plus keys, one API application for the gateway, project grants, per-agent claim
metadata, and a disabled groups-claim action.
Facts established while writing it:
- Client IDs cannot be preserved. ZITADEL v4.19.2 CreateOIDCApplicationRequest
has no client_id field, and provider 3.8.7 rejects a settable application id
(terraform validate reports "Invalid or unknown key"). Plan §3.2 assumed a
client_id-preserving re-point; every consumer now also changes client ID.
- Role keys equal the existing group names, so the groups claim can be
byte-identical and no RBAC file changes. v4.19.2 allows role keys of 1-200
characters with no character-set restriction.
- Machine users get JWT profile keys, not passwords. Per-agent claims move to
user metadata and reach tokens only through the groups-claim action.
- The action stays gated: enable_groups_claim_action defaults to false because
the action runtime API is unverified. Two validations stop a null script from
reaching file().
Checks: terraform fmt -check -recursive clean, terraform validate 0 errors,
plan reaches only the expected missing-credentials error, structural gate
0 error / 0 warning, and one reviewer round: BLOCK on a plan-time
fileexists(null) and on the missing api-gw machine path, both fixed, re-reviewed
to SIGN-OFF.
State is local and git-ignored; it carries generated client secrets and machine
keys. Move it to MinIO before a second operator applies.
Not applied: no Zitadel instance is running yet.
Consolidate three separate Forgejo Actions (argocd-sync, security-scan, validate-k8s) into single cluster-ci workflow for cleaner CI/CD pipeline with proper job sequencing and reduced auth overhead.
Add Terraform configuration for Talos cluster machine configs:
- Provider setup for Talos
- Centralized variables for CP and worker configs
- Template-based config generation for controlplane.yaml and worker-*.yaml
- Sensitive data separated in terraform.tfvars (gitignored)
- Local state tracking for infrastructure
Phase 0 groundwork for helmfile→ArgoCD migration using SOPS (Secrets Operations):
1. Install SOPS + AGE encryption
- AGE key generated and stored locally at ~/.sops/key.txt
- Public key embedded in .sops.yaml for file encryption rules
2. Create K8s Secret for AGE private key
- kubectl: create secret generic sops-age -n argocd --from-file=keys.txt=~/.sops/key.txt
- ArgoCD will use this key to decrypt secrets at sync time
3. Encrypt initial secrets
- k8s/base/secrets.enc.yaml: AES256_GCM encrypted secrets for all services
- Placeholder values (will be replaced with real values per environment)
- Secrets never visible in git (encrypted at rest)
4. Configure SOPS
- .sops.yaml: creation rules for k8s/*/secrets.enc.yaml files
- All future secret files auto-encrypt on edit (sops -e)
Setup: Store AGE key as K8s Secret in argocd namespace:
export KUBECONFIG=cluster-config/kubeconfig
kubectl create secret generic sops-age -n argocd --from-file=keys.txt=~/.sops/key.txt
Next: Configure ArgoCD Helm plugin to decrypt secrets on sync (Phase 0 continuation).
