Add 125 (seafile) — Nextcloud-replacement evaluation

LXC 125 stood up as a Seafile CE 13.0 docker-compose deployment, behind files.hubris.network. Authentik OAuth wired up via ak shell. No data migration — exploration alongside Nextcloud (114).

+# 125 — `seafile`
+
+Seafile Community Edition 13.0 — exploratory deployment to evaluate as a possible [nextcloud (114)](114-nextcloud.md) replacement. Stood up empty on 2026-05-12; **no migration**, NC stays untouched.
+
+## At a glance
+- **Hostname:** `seafile`
+- **IP:** `192.168.8.185`
+- **Privilege:** privileged (Debian 12, nesting + keyctl)
+- **Resources:** 4 cores / 8 GiB RAM / 32 GiB rootfs / 1 GiB swap
+- **Mounts:** `/mnt/library` ↔ `/mnt/library` (Seafile storage under `/mnt/library/seafile/data`)
+- **Public hostname:** [`files.hubris.network`](../infrastructure/dns.md) → [caddy (121)](121-caddy.md) → `192.168.8.185:80`
+- **Reachable from:** LAN + Netbird mesh (no public ingress)
+
+## Stack
+
+Docker-compose at `/opt/seafile/`, three services on a private `seafile-net` bridge:
+
+| Service | Image | Role |
+|---|---|---|
+| `seafile` | `seafileltd/seafile-mc:13.0-latest` | Seahub + seaf-server + Apache (the `-mc` flavor; uses Redis for cache) |
+| `db` | `mariadb:10.11` | ccnet / seafile / seahub databases |
+| `redis` | `redis:7-alpine` | session + cache backend |
+
+Compose layout:
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|---|---|
+| `/opt/seafile/seafile-server.yml` | upstream-verbatim from `manual.seafile.com/13.0/repo/docker/ce/` |
+| `/opt/seafile/docker-compose.override.yml` | local: publishes `192.168.8.185:80`, `extra_hosts: auth.hubris.network:192.168.8.175`, drops bundled-caddy labels (`labels: !reset []`) |
+| `/opt/seafile/.env` | mode 600, **not git-tracked** — DB passwords, `JWT_PRIVATE_KEY`, `INIT_SEAFILE_ADMIN_*`, `SEAFILE_SERVER_HOSTNAME=files.hubris.network`, `SEAFILE_SERVER_PROTOCOL=https`, `ENABLE_SEADOC=false` |
+
+**Do not rotate `JWT_PRIVATE_KEY`** — it invalidates every active session and library access token.
+
+## Storage layout
+- `/mnt/library/seafile/data/` — bind-mounted to `/shared` in the seafile container. Holds config (`seafile/conf/`), logs (`seafile/logs/`), and the heavy block/fs/commit trees (`seafile/seafile-data/storage/`). Group-owned `:media` 2775.
+- `/opt/seafile/mysql/` — mariadb data (small, stays on rootfs).
+
+## Auth
+Native OAuth2/OIDC against [authentik (124)](124-authentik.md). Configuration in `/mnt/library/seafile/data/seafile/conf/seahub_settings.py` between the `# BEGIN-HUBRIS-OAUTH` / `# END-HUBRIS-OAUTH` markers.
+
+Authentik side:
+- **Provider:** `Provider for Seafile` (OAuth2/OIDC, confidential, signing key = self-signed cert)
+- **Application slug:** `seafile`
+- **Redirect URI:** `https://files.hubris.network/oauth/callback/` (trailing slash mandatory)
+- **Launch URL:** `https://files.hubris.network/`
+- **Policy binding:** `authentik Admins` group
+- Provisioned via `ak shell` script (idempotent — `OAuth2Provider.objects.get_or_create(name="Provider for Seafile")`)
+
+Seahub side:
+- `ENABLE_OAUTH = True`
+- `OAUTH_AUTHORIZATION_URL` / `OAUTH_TOKEN_URL` / `OAUTH_USER_INFO_URL` → `https://auth.hubris.network/application/o/{authorize,token,userinfo}/`
+- `OAUTH_SCOPE = ['openid', 'profile', 'email']`
+- `OAUTH_ATTRIBUTE_MAP = {'email': (True, 'contact_email'), 'name': (False, 'name'), 'id': (False, 'not_used')}`
+- `OAUTH_CREATE_UNKNOWN_USER = True`, `OAUTH_ACTIVATE_USER_AFTER_CREATION = True` — JIT provisioning enabled.
+
+The Seahub login page renders a "Single Sign-On" button that 302s through `/sso/` → `/oauth/login/` → Authentik flow.
+
+### Reverse-proxy settings (also in seahub_settings.py)
+```python
+SERVICE_URL = "https://files.hubris.network"
+FILE_SERVER_ROOT = "https://files.hubris.network/seafhttp"
+SECURE_PROXY_SSL_HEADER = ('HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO', 'https')
+CSRF_TRUSTED_ORIGINS = ['https://files.hubris.network']
+```
+
+## DNS / mesh
+- LAN clients resolve `files.hubris.network` → `192.168.8.175` via [dnsmasq on LXC 124](../infrastructure/dns.md) (entry: `address=/files.hubris.network/192.168.8.175`).
+- Netbird mesh peers reach `192.168.8.185` through the existing `192.168.8.0/24` route advertised by the hubris peer.
+- The Seafile container itself needs `auth.hubris.network → 192.168.8.175` mapped at the Docker level (Docker's resolver doesn't follow LXC `/etc/hosts` or the dnsmasq split-horizon), so `docker-compose.override.yml` carries `extra_hosts: auth.hubris.network:192.168.8.175`. See [mesh migration](../infrastructure/mesh.md) for the pattern.
+
+## Caddy block (LXC 121)
+```
+files.hubris.network {
+    tls {
+        dns ionos {env.IONOS_AUTH_API_TOKEN}
+    }
+    encode zstd gzip
+    request_body {
+        max_size 10GB
+    }
+    reverse_proxy 192.168.8.185:80 {
+        header_up X-Forwarded-Proto https
+        header_up X-Forwarded-Host {host}
+        header_up Host {host}
+    }
+}
+```
+No `import authentik` — Seafile handles OAuth natively, forward-auth would block the `/oauth/callback/` round-trip.
+
+## Why exploration-only (and not a Nextcloud cutover)
+The [mulita (120)](120-mule-images.md) photo stack is tightly coupled to Nextcloud — it reads storage roots from `/mnt/library/homecloud/{user}/files/`, proxies thumbnails through NC's `/core/preview`, and consumes NC `webhook_listeners` for file events. Migrating off Nextcloud would require re-architecting all three integration points first.
+
+For now: stand up Seafile, kick the tires, decide later whether to:
+1. Keep NC for photos and move docs/files to Seafile.
+2. Refactor mulita off NC, then full cutover.
+3. Roll back (Seafile is rollback-safe — NC is untouched throughout).

+## Changelog
+
+### 2026-05-12 — initial deployment
+LXC 125 created (privileged Debian 12, 4 c / 8 GiB / 32 GiB, IP `192.168.8.185`). Seafile CE 13.0 docker-compose stack at `/opt/seafile/`, storage on `/mnt/library/seafile/data`. Authentik OAuth provider + Application provisioned via `ak shell` (slug `seafile`, redirect URI `https://files.hubris.network/oauth/callback/`). Caddy site block added on LXC 121, dnsmasq entry on LXC 124. End-to-end OAuth handshake verified to the Authentik flow page. **No data migration** — exploratory deployment alongside Nextcloud.
