CTO Agent 27397fe859 feat: migrate Forgejo runner to StatefulSet with Docker-in-Docker
Replaces the Deployment-based runner with a StatefulSet using a proper
Docker-in-Docker sidecar for improved isolation and state management.

Key changes:
- StatefulSet deployment for stable pod identity and persistent storage
- Docker-in-Docker init container (privileged) providing isolated Docker daemon
- Two persistent volumes: runner-data (1Gi) for config, docker-data (20Gi) for image cache
- Uses hcloud-volumes storage class for durability
- Each replica gets its own Docker daemon and image cache

This addresses the workflow failure where job containers (node:24-bookworm)
couldn't access Docker because the CLI was missing. The DinD sidecar provides
a complete Docker environment for all job containers.

Fixes: DEV-335

Purpose

This repository serves as the central source of truth for all deployment configurations targeting the basicstack.de Kubernetes cluster. It follows GitOps principles where infrastructure and application state is declaratively defined and version-controlled.

Directory Details

apps/

Contains deployment configurations for individual applications and services running on the cluster. Each application should have its own subdirectory with:

  • Kubernetes manifests (Deployments, StatefulSets, Services, etc.)
  • Helm values files
  • Configuration files
  • Application-specific documentation

Example: The stalwart/ directory contains the complete deployment configuration for the Stalwart mail server, including multiple deployment variants, monitoring setup, and operational guides.

infrastructure/

Contains cluster-wide infrastructure configurations:

  • networking/: Ingress controllers, network policies, DNS configurations, load balancers
  • monitoring/: Prometheus, Grafana, logging infrastructure, observability tools

docs/

General documentation including:

  • Deployment procedures
  • Cluster architecture
  • Troubleshooting guides
  • Best practices

GitOps with Argo CD

This repository is managed via Argo CD, the GitOps deployment platform for the cluster.

All changes pushed to the main branch are automatically synchronized to the cluster. Applications are defined in apps/app-*.yaml files and reference subdirectories for their manifests.

For details on managing applications, repository credentials, troubleshooting, and emergency procedures, see the Argo CD documentation.

Getting Started

  1. Clone this repository
  2. Review the example Stalwart deployment in apps/stalwart/
  3. Follow the pattern for new application deployments
  4. Ensure all manifests are tested before committing
  5. Argo CD will automatically sync changes to the cluster (or use manual sync for critical changes)

Contributing

All changes should be:

  1. Committed with clear, descriptive messages
  2. Tested in a development environment when possible
  3. Documented appropriately
  4. Reviewed before deployment to production

Cluster Information

  • Cluster: basicstack.de
  • Platform: K3s on Hetzner Cloud
  • Namespace Strategy: One namespace per application (recommended)
  • Ingress: Traefik (default K3s ingress controller)
