Add wikijs-backup, a nightly Borg CronJob (03:30) that dumps the Wiki.js postgres
DB to the Storage Box — the content lives in git-storage, but comments, local
accounts and the search index do not, so the runtime state gets its own backup.
Mirrors authentik-backup (DB-only), reusing synapse-backup-credentials and
-known-hosts with a separate repo path; NetworkPolicy lets the backup pod reach
wikijs-postgres. Also flip tocPosition to right so the page TOC sits beside the
content instead of in the left rail.
The Betrieb/Anwender content structure is created (lives in git-storage, not the
job). Add a page rule so wiki-anwender can read the home page besides /anwender —
otherwise "/" would be denied for them. betrieb/* still matches no rule, so
Wiki.js' default-deny keeps it invisible to users (verified in checkAccess:
returns match && !deny). rule() gains a match param for the EXACT home rule.
Add canonize_wiki to the daily schedule: bare-clone the public Gitea wiki repo
(sorb/ThreadNetWiki) and push its main to git.lab axion1337.chat/threadnet-wiki,
closing the second half of ADR-0015 (Wiki.js->Gitea->canonize->git.lab, the same
reversal as the TURN rotation). The target was created empty, so the first push
creates main and later runs fast-forward — no force, branch protection intact.
Auth via the WIKI_CANONIZE_TOKEN CI variable (project token, write_repository).
Set the blue Docusaurus-style accent (#2b6cb0 light / #63b3ed dark) via injectCSS
on the app UI — the login page is excluded because Wiki.js renders it without
custom CSS, so a dark login card is not themeable and is left as-is. Mount the
ThreadNet favicon (favicon.ico + favicon-16/32 PNGs the browser tab uses) from the
platform-branding ConfigMap via subPath, overlaying only those files.
The site title (top-left + browser tab) was the hardcoded "Wiki.js". Drive it
from a deployment variable instead; the config job sets site.title from
WIKI_SITE_TITLE (default "Wiki"), set here to wiki.axion1337.chat.
Wiki.js cannot reach git.lab from the cluster, so its content syncs to Gitea
(sorb/ThreadNetWiki) over HTTPS with a dedicated deploy PAT; a CI job canonizes
Gitea->git.lab (TURN-rotation pattern). The config job's ensure_git_storage
configures the git storage target (mode sync, config values {v:...}-encoded like
the auth strategy). Repo/user/branch/author are plain env; only the PAT lives in
the SOPS secret wikijs-git-secret, wired optional so the job still runs without it.
Flux's default source ignore excludes *.png/*.jpg, so the platform-branding
configMapGenerator failed with "no such file or directory" for the branding
assets. Re-include just those two files via .sourceignore.
Serve the ThreadNet logo and the shared platform login background (alpenglow.jpg,
same file Authentik and Element use) as public static files under
/_assets/img/branding, mounted from a single platform-branding ConfigMap. This
avoids two bad patterns: linking the background via an external URL (runtime
dependency on axion1337.chat) and uploading the logo as a gated Wiki.js asset
(which 404/403s on the unauthenticated login page unless guests get read:assets).
Wiki.js serves /wiki/assets publicly at /_assets, so mounted files need no
read:assets — guests stay locked out of pages. The config job sets logoUrl and
authLoginBgUrl to the local paths and enables dark mode as default. The ConfigMap
uses a name hash so a branding change rolls the pod. It can later be mounted into
Authentik/Element too, keeping one source of truth for the shared assets.
Disabling local (previous approach) left the login page empty: Wiki.js needs a
form strategy to render the provider list, so with only OIDC the card was blank
and login hung. Keep local ENABLED and instead set the built-in authHideLocal
site config, which removes local from the provider list on the login page —
only "Login with Authentik" shows.
local stays usable because the config job logs in through it, and it is the
break-glass path, reachable via /login?all (Wiki.js honors ?all to bypass
hideLocal). Verified live end-to-end: job runs idempotently, both strategies
enabled, authHideLocal=true.
Nobody should log in manually. The job disables the local strategy as its final
step (with a still-valid JWT), so the login page offers only Authentik OIDC.
Re-runs without a DB reset find local disabled -> login returns None -> the job
exits cleanly (already configured). Break-glass = DB reset (finalize re-enables
local). Verified live: local login is BLOCKED after the run.
The OIDC strategy failed at startup ('requires an issuer option') because the
config values never persisted: Wiki.js reads each via _.get(JSON.parse(value),
'v', null) (source-verified in server/graph/resolvers/authentication.js), so the
value MUST be {"v": <value>}. None of the earlier encodings had the 'v' key.
Fixed and verified live: strategy now loads [ OK ].
Idempotent GraphQL bootstrap job (verified live): /finalize with the random SOPS
admin, then the OIDC strategy and the groups 'authentik Admins' (full) and
'wiki-anwender' (read /anwender), Guests locked. Replaces the manual setup wizard
entirely. OIDC client_id/secret in a SOPS secret; NetworkPolicy lets the job reach
wikijs. Script as a fixed-name ConfigMap; re-run = delete the Job.
Random Wiki.js admin credentials (SOPS, never displayed) for the config Job to
bootstrap setup non-interactively. Authentik group wiki-anwender (curated readers
of /anwender); admin role = existing authentik Admins. Part of making Wiki.js
fully deployable - no manual setup wizard.
Deployable group structure for the wiki roles/abschottung. Names match the
Wiki.js groups and flow to Wiki.js via the profile->groups claim. Members are
assigned in the Authentik UI (sorb), not here.
Replace the PROVIDERKEY placeholder with the actual Wiki.js OIDC strategy callback
(login/<strategy-key>/callback) so Authentik accepts the redirect back. Closes the
login loop for wiki.axion1337.chat.
The wiki-oidc-provider blueprint referenced !Env AUTHENTIK_WIKI_OIDC_CLIENT_ID/
SECRET which were never set, so the blueprint failed (status: error) and no
provider was created. client_id isn't a secret and the client_secret is read
into Wiki.js manually anyway, so drop both !Env refs and let Authentik generate
them. Read the values from the Authentik UI into Wiki.js. Guide 10 design fix.
The SOPS-encrypted secret existed locally but was untracked and not in the
kustomization, so Flux never applied it and both wiki pods stayed in
CreateContainerConfigError (secret not found). Add it to resources and commit.
Values not read; age recipient matches .sops.yaml so Flux can decrypt.
Wiki.js + a dedicated Postgres + public ingress for wiki.axion1337.chat, added to
the production kustomization so Flux applies it. Both pods intentionally wait on
the SOPS secret `wikijs-postgres-secret` (username/password) until sorb creates it
— same loud-but-visible pattern as the concierge bot. NetworkPolicy: Traefik ->
wikijs:http, wikijs -> wikijs-postgres:postgres (ingress-only, named container
ports). Ingress/Cert mirror the authentik pattern (letsencrypt-prod). Native OIDC
login (#0049, guide 10) and git-storage are configured post-start. All manifests
validated server-side (kubectl --dry-run=server).
How an Anwender/Admin reaches the suite wiki: public wiki.axion1337.chat, same URL
for both, Wiki.js's own OIDC login to Authentik (no forward-auth/outpost - that was
only for static Docusaurus). Ready-to-apply Ingress+Certificate manifest (authentik
pattern), the Authentik OAuth2 provider blueprint (parallel-safe slug wiki-js), and
the Wiki.js OIDC endpoints. Prepared, not deployed; supersedes guide 09 for the
suite (ADR-0014). Indexed in the guides README.
The 'Regelwerk Bindung resultiert in False' denial after login means the user
is not a member of wiki-zugang (step 2.4). Record it plus the redirect-loop and
outpost-offline cases so the next person recognises them fast.
A user hit the 'Neue Outpost-Integration' dialog, which only offers Docker/K8s
and can't be left empty. That is the service-connection creator, not the outpost.
Spell out: go to Applications -> Outposts -> Create (not Outpost Integrations),
and leave the Integration dropdown on 'No integration'.
Records the #0024 decision (axionwiki.lab) and flags it as a development-time
arrangement: the wiki still has to move into the ThreadNet Server Suite, and
surface alternatives beyond BookStack get re-examined afterwards. Expands the
Authentik outpost/token steps (version pinning, exact UI path, where the token
goes) and the Overmind/Traefik side (shared network, redirect-loop caveat, full
authResponseHeaders, request walk-through).
Docusaurus is static and has no auth of its own, so the gate goes in Traefik in
front of it via an Authentik proxy outpost. Guide 09 carries the complete,
ready-to-apply config: the Authentik blueprint (forward_single proxy provider +
application + wiki-zugang group + policy binding) and the Overmind side (proxy
outpost container + Traefik forwardAuth middleware). Deliberately kept as a guide,
not merged into the applied blueprint ConfigMap: nothing goes live until the
wiki hostname (#0024) is settled and the outpost token (a credential) is created
by sorb. Dedicated outpost on Overmind so per-request checks stay local and only
the login redirect crosses the VPN. Indexed in the guides README.
@apo could log in and message but no call would start — the click produced
zero server activity. Root cause: no Synapse profiles row, which makes every
displayname write 500 in _check_profile_size (NoneType), leaves the account
without a display name, and prevents the Element Call widget iframe from
initialising. Documents diagnosis (open_id_tokens=0 is the tell), the
cross-checked INSERT fix, and who is affected. Indexed in the troubleshooting
README.
The Authentik upstream provider used claims_imports.localpart.on_conflict:
add, which links a newly registered upstream identity to an EXISTING local
account when the derived localpart collides. Combined with Authentik's
case-sensitive username uniqueness, any holder of an invitation token could
register a case variant of an existing name and be linked into that account,
including service accounts (draupnir, alerts, maintenance-notify) that have
no upstream link at all.
Set on_conflict: fail so a colliding localpart aborts provisioning instead.
Existing links are unaffected.
Wrote 08-concierge-gaeste-einladungen.md without adding it to the guide index - the same class of oversight this whole session has been about. Fixed within the hour instead of finding it later by accident.
Said 7 themes, listed Gruvbox Dark and Wal by name - neither exists in element-values.yaml. Actual count verified against the live config: 17. Pointing at management/shared/branding.md as the single place that lists them with colours and light/dark labels instead of duplicating the list here, which is what let this drift in the first place.
Turns guest onboarding from an admin-only click in the Authentik UI into a traceable command a defined circle can run: !einladen creates a single-use invitation valid for three days, !verlaengern extends it twice at most, !freischalten makes it permanent, and expired accounts are deactivated automatically.
Authorisation is deliberately twofold - the Authentik group decides, the invite room makes it visible. A group alone leaves no trace of who invited whom; a room alone would authorise anyone who gets in.
Two deployment details matter: exactly one replica with Recreate, because a second instance would execute every command twice; and the script ConfigMap keeps its name hash so a change actually restarts the pod, avoiding the trap described in #50.
Endpoints and field names were taken from the running Authentik OpenAPI schema, not guessed. Refs axion1337.chat/axion1337.chat-gitops#48
Without bug_report_endpoint_url the whole section in Settings, Help and About is hidden, so a user has no way to obtain their logs at all. The element.io endpoint was deliberately removed on 2026-08-01 to stop logs flowing there.
The special value local brings the capability back without the outflow: the button reads Download logs, the dialog writes them to the device, and nothing is uploaded anywhere. Users can then attach them in Matrix, which is the path that is already in use.
Config only - no rebuild. Refs axion1337.chat/ThreadNet-Web#9
The anonymisation rewrite of 2026-08-07 gave every touched commit a new SHA, leaving the references in these documents pointing at objects that no longer exist. The mapping was reconstructed from the backup branches and each pair verified by tree and commit message before substituting.
Prefix lookups were built for lengths 7 to 12 and any ambiguous prefix would have been skipped; none were ambiguous across all 251 pairs.
The actual root cause of the failing blueprint, visible only after the KeyOf references were gone: the entry set recovery_flow alone, but the serializer validates the whole object and rejected it with 'When no user fields are selected, at least one source must be selected'.
All other fields are listed on purpose even though they match the model defaults - whatever the serializer does not receive is reset to its default, so a blueprint naming a single field can silently flip unrelated settings. Values are taken from the live database.
Refs axion1337.chat/axion1337.chat-gitops#60
Adding name and title was necessary but not sufficient - the blueprint kept failing. Running ak apply_blueprint by hand showed why the real error was never visible: when authentik logs a failed entry it calls str() on the KeyOf object, whose __repr__ resolves against an EMPTY blueprint and raises the very same exception. The logging path masks the actual validation error.
KeyOf also couples every stage binding to that one entry succeeding in the same run. Find resolves against the database instead, which is what the neighbouring blueprints in this same ConfigMap already do, and the flow exists.
Refs axion1337.chat/axion1337.chat-gitops#60
The flow entry only set designation. FlowSerializer requires name and title as well (neither has a model default), so validation failed, the entry never got a model instance, and every following KeyOf matrix_recovery_flow reference failed with it. The blueprint had status error on every run.
Corroborated inside the same ConfigMap: matrix-invitation-flow sets name and title and applies successfully.
Values are taken from the live database so nothing changes on the page users see. The typo in mail-adress is left as is - changing user-facing text would be a separate decision.
Closesaxion1337.chat/axion1337.chat-gitops#60
Dazu eine Aussage korrigiert, die seit heute nur noch halb stimmt: "2FA-Selbsteinrichtung optional (not_configured_action=skip)" gilt weiterhin fuer Mitglieder, aber nicht mehr fuer Admins.
Festgehalten sind vor allem die beiden Fallen: configure statt deny (deny sperrt Admins aus, ohne Weg zurueck ausser ueber den Cluster) und last_auth_threshold gegen die doppelte Abfrage. Dazu die wichtigste - stimmt der Gruppenname nicht, greift die Regel fuer niemanden und wirft dabei keinen Fehler.
Widget-Abhaengigkeit auf 0.19.2-threadnet.7. Umgesetzt ueber VITE_PRODUCT_NAME, ohne eine einzige geaenderte Quelldatei im Fork - upstream sieht die Variable an jeder Stelle vor.
Schliesst den dritten Punkt aus #54 ab.
Eigene Validate-Stage hinter der vorhandenen, gebunden an die Admin-Gruppe. Fasst KEIN Authentik-Standardobjekt an: not_configured_action haengt an der Stage statt an der Bindung, eine Umstellung am Standard haette alle Mitglieder getroffen.
not_configured_action=configure statt deny - wer keinen Faktor hat, wird beim Login durch die Einrichtung gefuehrt statt ausgesperrt. Bei einem Admin-Konto gaebe es nach einem deny keinen Weg zurueck ausser ueber den Cluster.
last_auth_threshold=hours=1 verhindert die doppelte Abfrage: die Standard-Stage auf Ordnung 30 validiert bereits, wer einen Faktor hat; diese hier ueberspringt sich dann.
BEWUSST auf einem Branch: die Gruppe ist mit dem Authentik-Standard "authentik Admins" angenommen und von sorb noch nicht bestaetigt. Trifft sie nicht zu, greift die Regel fuer niemanden - das waere schlimmer als keine Regel, weil es sich sicher anfuehlt.
Wichtigster Punkt: solange branding_logo hier steht, gewinnt der Blueprint. Wer das Logo in Authentiks Oberflaeche auswaehlt, sieht es bis zur naechsten Reconciliation - danach ist es wieder weg. Ein neues Logo gehoert in diese Zeile.
Dazu die Liste der oeffentlich erreichbaren Assets und der Hinweis, dass die vorhandene Wortmarke im wiki-Repo liegt und von Hetzner aus nicht erreichbar ist - sie muesste erst mit dem Client ausgeliefert werden.
Unser 512-px-PNG rendert in der Anmeldemaske viel zu gross: Authentiks Default ist ein SVG, das sich der Box anpasst, ein PNG dagegen nimmt seine Naturgroesse. sorb entwirft ein passendes Logo.
Wichtig: explizit auf den Default gesetzt, nicht die Zeile geloescht - ein Blueprint mit state: present setzt weggelassene Felder nicht zurueck, der alte Wert bliebe in der DB stehen. Titel, Favicon und Hintergrund bleiben.

Voraussetzung fuer den naechsten Schritt in gitops#54: die ThreadNet-Brand in Authentik referenziert genau diese Bilddatei und liefe vorher ins Leere.
branding_title/logo/favicon/default_flow_background auf dem bestehenden Brand-Eintrag (domain authentik-default) - kein zweiter Brand, sondern derselbe, um den die default_application schon haengt.
Die Assets werden von der Client-Auslieferung referenziert statt in Authentik hochgeladen: sie liegen dort ohnehin, und eine zweite Kopie ist genau die Quelle, aus der spaeter Abweichungen entstehen. Ein ConfigMap-Mount scheidet aus - die drei Dateien reissen base64-kodiert das 1-MiB-Limit.
BEWUSST auf einem Branch: alpenglow.jpg existiert erst nach dem naechsten Client-Deploy. Auf main gemergt wuerde Flux das sofort ausrollen und die Anmeldeseite haette einen 404 als Hintergrund. Reihenfolge: erst Client-Image, dann dieser Merge.
Ich hatte registration/passwordReset/deactivate auf false gesetzt mit der
Begruendung, der Web-Client zeige Schaltflaechen, die ins Leere fuehren.
Gemessen hatte ich nur zweierlei: dass UIFeature in der Config fehlt und dass
der Homeserver Registrierung ablehnt. Dass daraus sichtbare Schaltflaechen
folgen, habe ich NICHT geprueft - sorb hat auf /#/login nachgesehen, dort gibt
es keinen Registrieren-Button. Element blendet ihn im SSO-Flow ohnehin aus.
Die Aenderung loeste damit ueberwiegend ein Problem, das es nicht gab - und
deactivate: false nahm zusaetzlich die Konto-Loeschung aus den Einstellungen,
die vorher sichtbar war. Das hatte niemand verlangt.
Zurueck auf den Stand davor. Sollen einzelne dieser Schalter bewusst gesetzt
werden, ist das eine eigene Entscheidung mit eigener Begruendung.

Der Web-Client zeigte Registrierung, Passwort-Reset und Konto-Loeschung an - alle
drei funktionieren auf dieser Instanz nicht:
- Registrierung ist am Homeserver abgeschaltet (gemessen: M_FORBIDDEN,
'Registration has been disabled. Only m.login.application_service
registrations are allowed.')
- Login laeuft ausschliesslich ueber SSO (Flows: m.login.sso, m.login.token) -
Passwoerter liegen in Authentik, nicht im Homeserver
- Konto-Loeschung laeuft ebenfalls ueber die Identitaetsverwaltung
Der Desktop-Client blendet die drei seit jeher aus; nur die Web-Config hatte
UIFeature gar nicht gesetzt. Damit sahen Web-Nutzer Angebote, die entweder in
einer Fehlermeldung enden oder am eigentlichen Weg vorbeifuehren - und
Registrierung widerspricht ausserdem der Vision-Entscheidung 'kontrolliert
wachsend, jeder Eintritt wird freigegeben'.

Nachtrag - der Bump war im vorigen Commit an einer falschen Einrueckung im
Suchtext gescheitert (8 statt 10 Zeichen, derselbe Fehler wie beim v0.4.0-Bump).
Diesmal zeilenbasiert statt ueber einen mehrzeiligen Suchtext.
Bringt: Tab-Titel ThreadNet, favicon.ico, Fehlerseite und Desktop-Hinweis mit
eigener Marke.

Hebt Prod auf v0.4.1 (Tab-Titel, favicon.ico, Fehlerseite, Desktop-Hinweis).

Auf der Anmeldemaske stand weiterhin Elements gruenes Logo - meine Icon-Arbeit
deckte nur vector-icons/ ab, also Favicon, PWA und App-Icon. Das Logo IM Client
kommt aus einer anderen Quelle: AuthHeaderLogo.tsx und HomePage.tsx lesen
branding.auth_header_logo_url aus der Config und fallen sonst auf
themes/element/img/logos/element-logo.svg zurueck.
Das ist reine Konfiguration - kein Rebuild noetig, die ConfigMap reicht.
Als Ziel bewusst vector-icons/512.png statt einer neuen Datei: Die liegt bereits
ausgeliefert (verifiziert, HTTP 200) und stammt aus derselben Quelle wie alle
anderen Icons. Eine zweite Logo-Datei koennte davon abdriften - genau die Falle,
die in shared/branding.md steht.
Randbedingung, die die Wahl einschraenkt: webpack kopiert aus res/ nur themes/**
und vector-icons/** nach webapp. Ein Logo unter res/img/ waere gar nicht per URL
abrufbar.
