One ru-vps housekeeping sweep (2026-09-02/03):
- playbooks/ru-vps-base.yml (new): adopt the Caddy compose stack into Ansible
(pinned image by digest, homelab-caddy.service), and manage the corosync-qnetd
UFW rule - allow 5403/tcp from homelab_pve_egress_ip, drop the stale rule for
the retired ZeroTier 10.122.62.0/24. The qdevice had gone silent because its
only allowed path was the decommissioned ZeroTier network.
- group_vars/all/main.yml: homelab_pve_egress_ip (the NATed home egress the PVE
nodes reach corosync-qnetd from - a direct path that does not depend on the
OpenVPN tunnel). Marked dynamic: a change silently re-breaks the qdevice.
- playbooks/status.yml: CLUSTER QUORUM section (pvecm status per PVE node) so a
repeat failure is visible. Also drops the memoir-bot unit list and moves the
gitea offsite-restic unit to the gitea host (see the OpenTofu-migration commit).
- playbooks/ru-vps-zerotier-decommission.yml (new): stop the zerotier container,
disable ssh-zt22.service, remove the interface/9993/9001/10.122.62.0/24 UFW
rules. Node identity and data are kept; removal is a separate step.

Collect the facts about all 14 services -- VMID, node, address, ports,
domain, pinned images, resources, backup and monitoring participation --
into group_vars/all/services.yml. Values are taken from the existing
playbooks; gaps are marked null rather than invented.
Replace reverse-proxy-{gitea,vaultwarden,grimmory}.yml with a single
playbook iterating over registry entries that declare a domain. It keeps
every check the three had, preserves grimmory's richer Caddy block
byte-for-byte, and restarts Caddy once when any site changed instead of
up to three times. Verified with --check --diff against ru-vps: ok=6
changed=0, so it reproduces the current Caddyfile exactly.
Add two roles factoring out the skeleton duplicated across the pve-*
playbooks: lxc_docker_host (packages, /dev/fuse assertion, fuse-overlayfs
storage driver, UFW baseline) and compose_service (compose file, systemd
unit, config validation, health check). They are not wired into any
playbook yet -- migrating a live service is a separate, per-service step;
compose_service/README.md shows the Gitea example and spells out what
actually changes on the host.

hosts.yml repeated the same authentication block for 13 LXC hosts and
carried 13 byte-identical copies of the ru-vps ProxyCommand. Describe the
transport once in ansible/ssh_config instead: jump host, per-host users,
keys, and the fact that pbs and ovpn-mini are reached directly rather
than through ru-vps.
Ansible loads that file through ansible_ssh_common_args in
group_vars/all/main.yml, where the path is derived from inventory_dir so
it depends on neither the current directory nor the clone location.
The same file makes `ssh gitea` work from a plain terminal once
~/.ssh/config includes it.
hosts.yml drops from 209 to 137 lines and now holds only addresses and
per-host facts. Verified equivalent: ansible-inventory --list before and
after differ only by the removed ansible_ssh_common_args, with group
membership and ordering byte-identical.
