phoenixd: convert to a role, de-Uptime-Kuma the health check
552-line playbook becomes 18 lines plus a 411-line role
(install/service/healthcheck phases, four templates, two handlers).
phoenixd_vars.yml is deleted; its content is the role's defaults.
Task-list diff vs the old playbook shows ONLY the eight Uptime Kuma tasks
removed - everything else identical and in the same order.
phoenixd holds a Lightning node, so the run was checked against a pre-flight:
before: channel 6c25fa83..., balanceSat 1550723, capacitySat 3114830,
blockHeight 966692, active since 2026-09-02
after: identical, and still active since 2026-09-02 - it did NOT restart
`Create phoenixd systemd service` came back unchanged, which is what proves the
template reproduces the live unit byte-for-byte. changed=3 was the health check
script, its unit (Environment rename), and the timer restart. Second run:
changed=0.
Two things the conversion fixed, both symptoms of the deprecation banner having
been applied to contiguous blocks rather than to individual tasks:
- The health check logged "ERROR: UPTIME_KUMA_PUSH_URL not set" on every fire -
about 1,400 times a day - because its Environment= was emptied at
decommissioning. The exit code was still correct so nothing was broken, but it
is exactly the kind of noise that trains you to ignore a log. An unset push
URL is now normal and silent.
- `Enable and start phoenixd health check timer` was guarded by
uptime_kuma_enabled and so had not run since the decommissioning, while the
timer itself was still live on the host from before. Ansible had quietly
stopped managing something that was still running. Ungated.
Noted, not changed: seed.dat is mode 0644 on the host. That is phoenixd's own
doing, but it is a Lightning seed and worth tightening.

# Never exposed through Caddy — the HTTP API stays on loopback.

caddy: close out Plan 4
All five close-out greps return nothing: no sites-enabled handling outside
roles/, no `systemctl reload caddy`, no caddy_sites_dir self-reference, no
inline proxy unit writes. 37 playbooks syntax clean. The 14 Caddy site files
and 6 proxy units on the hosts are byte-identical to the Stage 0 baseline.
Seven play names still said "on vipy" while the play targeted a group. Renamed
to "on the edge host" - the last place a play claimed a hostname after Plan 2.
Documented the four vhosts in /etc/caddy/sites-enabled that no playbook writes
(uptime-kuma, arbretstaging, bitcoininfra, scriberr) in the caddy_site README.
None deleted.
uptime-kuma.conf was going to be deleted as dead config. It is not dead: the
louislam/uptime-kuma container is STILL RUNNING on watchtower - created
2026-02-07, restart=unless-stopped, healthy - and uptime.contrapeso.xyz returns
302, not the 502 a dead backend would give. The "decommissioning" retired the
Ansible code and the vault credentials, not the service. PLAN_3 claimed "the
tokens died with the server"; that is corrected there.
The Caddyfile.* backups are kept: one per host, Nov-Dec 2025, not churning, and
the only record of each Caddyfile before the import line was added.
