Add the foundation for distributing homelab context to every client (LXCs, VMs, workstations including republic-laptop, mac-mini, ludo-mini) with a single source of truth, structured query layer (MCP), and per-client age-key issuance for secrets: - inventory.yaml — canonical topology (hosts, services, mesh addresses) - hosts/*.yaml — per-host identity files generated from inventory by mcp/build_host_files.py; do not edit by hand - AGENTS.md — orientation doc symlinked to /root/AGENTS.md on every client - bootstrap.sh — one-shot enroll (Linux + macOS), clones repo, fetches age key from issuance, installs sync timer/launchd job, drops the homelab CLI - bin/homelab — single-binary Python CLI: whoami, list, ssh, pct, logs, restart, open, status, secret, sync, mcp, client add/remove, nuke - mcp/server.py — FastMCP server: context tools + read-only management tools (no mutations exposed); shell-outs use mcp-reader restricted ssh key - mcp/deploy/ — claudio-monitor-style gitea webhook deploy scaffold for the MCP service on LXC 105 (ports 9810 mcp, 9811 webhook) - secrets-issuance/ — per-client age key auto-provisioning over the mesh; source-IP gated against inventory, with denylist for revoked clients (ports 9820 issue, 9821 webhook) - secrets/, .sops.yaml — SOPS recipient scaffolding; the operator fills in age public keys after Phase 3a generates them - scripts/sync/ — systemd timer (Linux) + launchd plist (macOS) pulling /opt/homelab-context every 5 min Mesh: both Netbird (preferred, 100.122.0.0/16) and Tailscale accepted during the in-flight migration; no client is gated on completing the move.

# AGENTS.md — orientation for any agent on a homelab client
|
|
|
|
You are running on a machine that is part of the **hubris** homelab. The full
|
|
context is in this checkout at `/opt/homelab-context/`. This file is the entry
|
|
point. Read it once at start, then keep working.
|
|
|
|
## 1. Who you are
|
|
|
|
Run `hostname` (Linux) or `scutil --get LocalHostName` (macOS), then read:
|
|
|
|
/opt/homelab-context/hosts/<your-hostname>.yaml
|
|
|
|
That file tells you your role, your peers, what's mounted, and what services
|
|
you host. If it does not exist, this client was not enrolled — stop and tell
|
|
the operator to run `homelab client add <hostname>` from an existing client.
|
|
|
|
## 2. The topology
|
|
|
|
- `/opt/homelab-context/inventory.yaml` — every host, LXC, VM, and workstation
|
|
with their mesh addresses, roles, and service mappings. Treat this file as
|
|
authoritative; anything you read in narrative pages should agree with it.
|
|
- `/opt/homelab-context/infrastructure/mesh.md` — Tailscale → Netbird state.
|
|
Both meshes are accepted today; Netbird is preferred for new traffic.
|
|
- `/opt/homelab-context/infrastructure/dns.md` — split-horizon DNS via
|
|
dnsmasq on LXC 124. `*.hubris.network` resolves to 192.168.x.x on the LAN
|
|
and to mesh addresses off-LAN.
|
|
- `/opt/homelab-context/operations/commands.md` — the operator's cheatsheet
|
|
for pct, caddy, dnsmasq. Use these verbs when you take actions.
|
|
|
|
## 3. The MCP server
|
|
|
|
The homelab exposes a Model Context Protocol server with structured tools.
|
|
Endpoint is in `inventory.yaml` under `services.homelab_mcp.endpoint`.
|
|
|
|
Available tools:
|
|
|
|
Context (pure read):
|
|
get_host(name), list_services(), find_service(name_or_role),
|
|
get_topology(), search_docs(query), get_page(path),
|
|
get_changelog(page, since?), whoami(hostname),
|
|
list_my_secrets(caller_pubkey?)
|
|
|
|
Management (read-only):
|
|
get_service_status(service), tail_log(service, lines=200),
|
|
list_lxcs(), get_lxc_state(lxc), ping_service(service)
|
|
|
|
Mutations are **not** exposed via MCP. Use the `homelab` CLI for those, with
|
|
operator confirmation.
|
|
|
|
**When to prefer MCP over grepping the clone:** any time you need to resolve a
|
|
name to an address, look up service status, or search the wiki by content.
|
|
Grep is fine for browsing or when MCP is unreachable.
|
|
|
|
## 4. Wiki conventions
|
|
|
|
- Pages live under `containers/`, `hosts/`, `vms/`, `infrastructure/`,
|
|
`investigations/`, `operations/`. Cross-link liberally; orphans are bugs.
|
|
- Every page ends with a `## Changelog` section, entries in reverse-chrono
|
|
order:
|
|
|
|
### YYYY-MM-DD — short title
|
|
one or two lines describing what changed and why.
|
|
|
|
- Investigation files are dated and slugged: `YYYY-MM-DD-slug.md`.
|
|
- Live state takes precedence over docs. If you observe a discrepancy, update
|
|
the docs *in the same session* (per the same-session update rule).
|
|
|
|
## 5. Acting on the homelab
|
|
|
|
- **Read state**: prefer MCP tools, then files, then shell. Examples:
|
|
`homelab whoami`, `homelab list`, `homelab status`, `homelab logs caddy`.
|
|
- **Cross-host actions** (caddy reload, pct exec, etc.): use the `homelab`
|
|
CLI — it resolves hostname → mesh address → ssh / pct path for you. Direct
|
|
SSH still works; the CLI just removes the lookup burden.
|
|
- **Secrets**: never hardcode. Call `homelab secret <name>` to decrypt on
|
|
demand using the per-client age key at `/etc/age/key.txt`. Secrets ARE
|
|
available in this system — `list_my_secrets()` (MCP) shows what you can
|
|
decrypt.
|
|
- **Mutations** (restart, edit configs, etc.): the `homelab` CLI's mutating
|
|
subcommands ask for confirmation. For ad-hoc work, SSH and edit directly —
|
|
but commit changes that touch tracked configs (caddy, gitea custom,
|
|
artifacto, mule-image, etc.; see `infrastructure/auto-deploy.md`).
|
|
- **Wiki updates**: same-session rule applies to any meaningful state change
|
|
this client makes.
|
|
|
|
## 6. When in doubt
|
|
|
|
Run `homelab mcp search_docs <query>` or `homelab mcp get_host <name>`.
|
|
The clone is the fallback; MCP is the index.
