Container images re-resolved against their registries today; each pin is the
manifest-list digest the tag answers now, so no container is served from a
build that upstream has already replaced.
Version-tag moves: authentik 2026.8.3 -> 2026.8.5 (server/worker/outpost and
the ldap image, which now carries the tag instead of a bare digest so the pair
can never drift apart), seerr v3.4.1 -> v3.5.1, calibre 9.15.0 -> 9.17.0,
calibre-web 0.6.27-ls402 -> ls407, plex ls329 -> ls330, tautulli
v2.18.1-ls245 -> v2.18.2-ls250.
Digest-only moves inside the same stream: postgres 16-alpine, mariadb 11,
redis 7-alpine, valkey 9-alpine, grafana, alertmanager, gluetun, searxng,
open-webui, jellyfin, romm, chromedp/headless-shell, lightpanda/browser.
Rollback is the previous digest on the same Image= line.
Closing the command-center security queue #70/#71/#72/#73/#74: rolling tags
let a rebuild move under a running service with nobody approving it, and
make a CVE audit ungradeable. 36 quadlet units across dankclaw, dankserver
and frankbook-pro now carry tag@sha256; localhost/* builds stay exempt
(their build is the pin). The pihole and copyparty pins pull the fixed
builds; valkey 9.1.2 (already running) and redis 7.4.11 are pinned in
place, vendor fixes TBD.
New gate tests/quadlet_image_pins.bats: no unpinned registry image, no
generator-rejected key anywhere. Three seams that pinned the old exact-tag
law (frankbook readarr, open_webui, seerr) now require tag AND digest -
strictly stronger. Quadlet Lifecycle docs: batch-abort law, entrypoint
flags-only law, pin law.
Verified live on dankclaw: the podman 5.x v1 quadlet generator splits
HealthCmd values on spaces into the container healthcheck argv array, so
quoted probes (sh -c "pg_isready ...") arrive mangled and every probe
exits 127 — postgres read 'unhealthy' with the database actually up.
Probe forms now use only space-free argv tokens: pg_isready passes its
args directly; the server probe runs manage.py check --database default
(verified exit-0 standalone in the image).
Probed the live generator on dankclaw: podman 5.x v1 hard-fails unit
generation on dash-prefixed options (--shm-size killed authentik-server's
unit) and rejects Command= entirely; Exec= is the accepted role selector.
Drop --shm-size (uwsgi uses unix sockets under /run, not /dev/shm; default
64m shm is fine) and drop systemctl --user enable — generated units are
transient and cannot be enabled; WantedBy=default.target in each unit file
is what makes them boot-persistent on this generator.
The compose-era authentik trio died at every boot (rootless podman does not
auto-start bare containers). Convert the trio to Quadlet units installed by
deploy-remote.sh into ~/.config/containers/systemd/, enabled + WantedBy=
default.target:
- 3 unit files under dankclaw/authentik/quadlet/ (postgres -> server -> worker
ordering via Wants=/After=; secrets stay in the git-ignored host .env,
expanded by systemd at start time exactly like the gitea units)
- deploy_authentik() handler: install units, daemon-reload, retire stale
compose-era containers only while units are inactive, enable once, then
start in dependency order with podman-health gates between stages
- compose.yaml: authentik service definitions retired to a comment pointing at
the quadlet dir (same pattern as searxng/open-webui/gitea/caddy)
- tests/authentik.bats rewritten from compose assertions to unit-file
contract assertions (images, Exec roles, ordering, loopback-only publish,
pg_isready probe, secret hygiene, dispatch routing)
