# Headscale service configuration

ansible: delete the duplicated vars files, move globals to group_vars/all
Three files existed only as second copies of things group_vars/all already
auto-loads, and 34 playbooks named them in vars_files: - which outranks
group_vars, so the copies won. The day someone edited one and not the other,
those plays would silently keep the stale value. infra_vars.yml was already
drifting: group_vars/all/main.yml had grown age_backup_recipient and
backup_pull_public_key that it lacked.
infra_vars.yml - a strict subset of group_vars/all/main.yml
infra_secrets.yml - decrypts byte-identical to group_vars/all/vault.yml
infra_secrets.yml.example - documented Uptime Kuma credentials as the reason
the file exists, which stopped being true
Deleted, along with 62 vars_files entries across 34 playbooks (12 of which
named ../../group_vars/all/main.yml directly - same defect, a vars_files entry
duplicating an auto-loaded file at higher precedence than the file itself).
Checked before touching anything: infra_secrets.yml was listed LAST in 10 plays,
after services_config.yml, so removal would flip precedence if the two shared a
key. They share none, and neither does services_config.yml with
group_vars/all/main.yml, so the removal is provably inert.
services_config.yml was the last one standing. It held four unrelated things:
caddy_sites_dir - an identical copy of roles/caddy_site/defaults/.
Deleted; the role default is now the only one.
*.tailscale_hostname (x3) - a THIRD copy of each box's identity, which
inventory.ini already holds as ansible_host.
Deleted. Edge plays now read
hostvars['<host>'].ansible_host - verified an
edge play resolves that with nothing loaded and
the other host in no play. Three copies of one
name is how bitcoin_rpc_host ended up labelled
"knots_box" while pointing at fulcrum-box.
subdomains, ntfy topic, - genuinely global: their readers span managed,
headscale namespace monitoring, vpn_control and edge, so no single
group covers them. Moved to group_vars/all/main.yml
where they auto-load. The ntfy_topic and
headscale_namespace indirection through
service_settings collapses to the global name.
the four cross-host ports - the only entries with a real justification.
Left in place; they move in the next commit.
Also dead, all Uptime Kuma residue or duplication:
phoenixd_monitor_name, forgejo_runner healthcheck_timeout_seconds/retries,
fulcrum_tailscale_hostname, and bitcoin_knots_version - the last being a
v-prefixed copy of bitcoin_knots_version_short that nothing read, two
hand-maintained copies of one version string.
Corrected a false comment: services_config.yml claimed the uptime_kuma subdomain
"no longer resolves to anything". It resolves to 164.92.239.72 and answers HTTP
302, and 11 playbooks still template it. Same wrong premise as PLAN_3.
Verification: all 37 playbooks' --list-tasks output is byte-identical before and
after. A probe resolving all 22 values services_config.yml used to supply returns
21 identical and one intended deletion (caddy_sites_dir, now role-only - confirmed
the role still resolves it: "Ensure Caddy sites-enabled directory exists" comes
back ok against the real path). memos check-diff identical before and after.
Syntax passes on every playbook.

ntfy, datum-gateway, headscale: use the caddy_site role
Completes Stage 3. No hand-rolled Caddy plumbing remains anywhere:
`grep sites-enabled` outside roles/ returns nothing, and so does
`grep "systemctl reload caddy"`.
ntfy uses caddy_site_body for its plain-HTTP listener and @httpget redirect.
Verified ok/unchanged against watchtower; the one other changed task is a
pre-existing "Update APT cache".
datum-gateway keeps a whole-Caddyfile validate after the role call. The role
validates its own fragment, but only a whole-file validate catches a conflict
between two sites, and this playbook was the only one that ever had it. Its
two debug tasks that echoed command output are gone with the commands.
headscale is the one that mattered. Its playbook wrote
`reverse_proxy localhost:8080`, but spacey is actually running a /admin*
route in front of Headplane behind Caddy basic auth. Running that playbook
would have deleted the admin route and its auth - a hazard that predates this
work. It now renders the config that is really there, verified ok/unchanged
via --start-at-task (the play cannot reach Caddy in check mode: "Install
headscale package" fails because the .deb is not really downloaded, before
and after this edit alike).
Supporting changes for headscale:
- headscale_ui_password_hash added to infra_secrets.yml and the identical
group_vars/all/vault.yml, read from the live config on spacey. The vault
already had headscale_ui_username (= counterweight, confirmed) and
headscale_ui_password; I did not verify the password is the plaintext of
this hash.
- headplane_port added to headscale_vars.yml.
- The role's handler now sets become: true. Handlers do not inherit become
from the task that notified them, and this play runs become: no.
- The include uses `apply: become: yes`; `become:` on an include_role is
rejected outright.
All 14 site files on all 3 hosts still byte-identical.
