caddy+authentik tests: uniform Host-preserving :8016 proxy through embedded outpost
The redirect-to-flow design with an absolute cross-host next= was rejected by
the flow's open-redirect guard at completion ("Request has been denied:
Invalid next URL"), and meta-header routing does not exist in this build
(providers route on the ORIGINAL Host). :8016 now proxies every request whole
to authentik-server:9000 preserving Host; the embedded outpost serves login
in place and forwards authenticated traffic back to :8017. Requires one proxy
provider per guarded host (provisioned live: search/hermes/prometheus/romm/
files + www, flows backfilled). Tests flipped from the meta-header claim to
the upheld contract: Host preserved, no absolute next= redirects.

# Seam: Authentik (SSO / OIDC provider) — the homelab's auth layer.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Authentik is a 3-service stack (PostgreSQL + server + worker) on dankclaw.
|
||||
# It provides OIDC, SAML, and Caddy forward_auth for the vhosts that do not
|
||||
# have their own application-level authentication (SearXNG, Hermes,
|
||||
# Prometheus, RomM, Copyparty, the homepage).
|
||||
# It protects the vhosts that have no application-level authentication
|
||||
# (SearXNG, Hermes, Prometheus, RomM, Copyparty, the homepage) with its
|
||||
# embedded proxy outpost.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# The Caddyfile carries an `auth.franksdank.cloud` vhost that proxies to the
|
||||
# Authentik server. Vhosts without their own auth are wrapped in a `route`
|
||||
# block that (1) proxies the outpost path to Authentik, (2) runs forward_auth,
|
||||
# (3) serves the app.
|
||||
# The Caddyfile carries an `auth.franksdank.cloud` vhost for the admin UI, and
|
||||
# an internal `:8016` listener that Anubis dials after verifying a client.
|
||||
# :8016 proxies every request whole to the Authentik server with the Host
|
||||
# header preserved; the embedded outpost routes on the ORIGINAL Host against
|
||||
# each proxy provider's external_host (meta headers do NOT route it —
|
||||
# disproved live, 2026-08-29) and forwards authenticated traffic back to the
|
||||
# post-auth listener `:8017`.
|
||||

|
||||
# See ../docs/Infrastructure/Authentik.md.
