Nguyen Minh Phuc 66eb6cb0ee refactor: converge the patterns multiple authors left divergent
The codebase was written by several agents and had the same concept done more
than one way. This makes it read as one voice, with no behaviour change.

Dedup, each to a single canonical form:
  - INSTANCE_COLUMNS: the 13-column instances SELECT list existed as _COLUMNS in
    instances.py and reconcile.py (byte-identical) and inlined a third time in
    the worker. One exported constant now.
  - Settings.runtime_dsn: the three entrypoints each chose between str(pg_dsn)
    and pg_dsn.unicode_string(). One property.
  - yaml_tempfile: helm._ValuesFile and k8s._ManifestFile were the same
    write-yaml-to-a-temp-dir context manager. One helper in adapters/tempyaml.py.
  - services/_runtime.py: sleep_or_stop and install_stop_signals were copied
    between the worker and reconciler loops. One module, so shutdown behaviour
    cannot drift between them.
  - k8s.ensure_namespace used MANAGED_BY_LABEL/VALUE from helm.py instead of a
    hardcoded literal, so the managed-by label has one definition.
  - SvcforgeError is now the root of every svcforge exception (CatalogError,
    IllegalTransition, BadWindow, HandlerError), keeping each stdlib base in the
    MRO, so `except SvcforgeError` means what errors.py says it does.
  - ERROR_MAX_CHARS replaces the repeated `[-2000:]` truncation feeding the same
    error columns.
  - the reconciler reads settings.metrics_port like the worker, dropping its
    duplicate DEFAULT_METRICS_PORT and redundant --metrics-port option; the
    SVCFORGE_METRICS_PORT env override still applies through pydantic.

Two smaller correctness/consistency fixes:
  - RateLimitResult.retry_after_s computed its delta against datetime.now(UTC)
    while the limiter runs on an injectable clock, so it was meaningless under a
    FakeClock and drifted by request latency in production. It now carries a
    checked_at from the same clock as reset_at.
  - handle_provision's notifier.send is wrapped like the reconciler's: a flaky
    webhook after the READY CAS would fail the task, and the retry would hit the
    READY early-return and drop the notification, turning a good provision into a
    failed one.

Nguyen Minh Phuc d64c3c9f39 fix: three correctness bugs found in review + a dropped-log
fail() blanket-marked the instance `failed` for every dead-lettered task kind.
Only provision is correct. The others each left the instance in a state the
UPDATE then corrupted:
  - deprovision: `deleting` -> `failed` stranded the instance, because
    due_for_deprovision only re-selects ready/deleting, leaking the release
    reconcile.py promises to reclaim.
  - upgrade: helm --atomic rolled back, so the instance was still `ready` and
    serving the old version; `failed` mislabelled a healthy service and dropped
    it off the upgrade work-list.
  - verify: handle_verify already halted the rollout; the instance was `ready`.
Now gated on kind == provision, with a regression test per kind (control-tested
against the blanket UPDATE, which fails all three).

The API exception handler was registered on fastapi.HTTPException, a subclass
of starlette's. Starlette matches handlers by walking type(exc).__mro__, so
framework-raised 404/405 never hit it and returned {"detail": ...} instead of
ErrorBody. Registered on the starlette parent, and added a
RequestValidationError handler so body-validation 422s share the shape too.
Tests assert the ErrorBody shape for framework 404, 405, and a forbidden field.

helm._list_releases_via_api built the httpx client with verify=<ca path>, which
loads the CA eagerly and raises OSError on a half-mounted ServiceAccount — an
error the except clause did not catch, crashing the reconciler tick as a bare
bug. Now the CA is checked for readability alongside the token, and a missing
one means "not in-cluster" and falls back to helm. Also documents the no-limit
pagination invariant and pins it with a test.

redis.py logged through stdlib logging with extra={"team": team}, which the
structlog bridge drops on the floor — the trap notify.py documents. Switched to
a bound logger with team as a kwarg.

The drift check failed on every tick with:

    TypeError: 'NoneType' object is not iterable

`resp.json().get("items", [])` cannot defend against this. The key IS present,
with the value null, so the default never fires. An empty PartialObjectMetadataList
comes back as `"items": null`, which is exactly what happens once the release
selector matches nothing — the normal state of a cluster with no tenant
releases provisioned yet.

`or []` handles both shapes.

The tests could not have caught this: all of them passed a real empty list,
which is the one shape that works. The new test sends `"items": null` as the
API server actually sends it, and is control-tested — restoring the old
expression fails it with the same TypeError seen in production.

Worth recording why this survived review. The API read was verified against a
live cluster before shipping, but that cluster had 25 matching release secrets,
so the empty case never ran. A measurement on real data proved the fast path
worked and said nothing about the path taken when there is no data.

helm's list gunzips every release payload to build its table. The only fields
either caller reads are name and namespace:

    reconciler/main.py   live = {(r.name, r.namespace) for r in releases}
    worker/handlers.py   releases = {r.name for r in await ...list_releases()}

Both live in the release secret's labels and metadata, so nothing needs
decompressing. Measured from a pod on this cluster: 21ms and 31KB, against
helm's 4392ms.

That is the whole fix for a drift check that was timing out at 330s every tick
and OOMKilling the container at 256Mi. The cause of both was decompressing 96
releases to extract two strings each. It also means the container no longer
cares that a cluster policy mutates its CPU request to 0 — at 21ms there is
nothing left to starve.

Three details carry the correctness, each with a test:

  - PartialObjectMetadataList in the Accept header asks for metadata only.
    Without it every release's gzipped manifest crosses the wire to be thrown
    away, which is the cost this exists to avoid.
  - The status selector drops superseded revisions server-side: 96 release
    secrets here, 25 live. Failed and pending states are kept, matching what
    `helm list` shows, because a failed release does exist and calling it
    missing would have the reconciler re-provision on top of it.
  - helm writes one secret per revision, up to 10 per release here, so the
    newest version label wins. Control-tested with a string compare, which
    picks "9" over "10".

Out of cluster there is no ServiceAccount, so it falls back to helm and the
e2e suite and laptop runs are unchanged. An API error raises rather than
falling back: the fallback is for a known-absent ServiceAccount, and quietly
retrying through helm would swap a visible error for the timeout this removes.

chart and app_version are empty on this path rather than wrong — they live
only in the compressed payload, and nothing reads them.

check_drift diffs helm against the database in both directions, and the second
one is `live - known` -> drift.orphan_release at ERROR. `live` was every
release in the cluster, so argocd, longhorn, gitea and cert-manager were all
reported as orphans svcforge is failing to account for, on every sweep. They
are not orphans; they were never svcforge's to know about.

install() now stamps app.kubernetes.io/managed-by=svcforge and list_releases()
selects on it. Releases provisioned before this see one sweep as missing and
get re-provisioned, which is safe by construction — `helm upgrade --install`
against a deterministic release name — and that re-provision applies the label.

This does NOT fix the timeout, and the docstring says so. Measured, not
assumed: unscoped 23 releases in 4392ms, scoped to 0 in 3988ms. `--selector` is
not pushed down as a server-side selector, so helm still fetches and
decompresses every release secret and filters what it already parsed. Around
10%, not the order of magnitude the flag's shape suggests. The 330s timeouts
need CPU for the container or a different read path.

The two sides of the label are asserted against each other rather than a
literal, so a rename that updates only one fails in tests instead of in
production as a silently empty drift check. Control-tested: renaming the read
side alone fails two of the three.

Python 3.12 -> 3.14, postgres 16 -> 18, uv 0.5.11 -> 0.11.29,
trivy 0.58.1 -> 0.72.0, gitleaks 8.21.2 -> 8.30.1, yq 4.44.6 -> 4.53.3,
and every action re-pinned to the SHA of its latest tag (checkout v7,
setup-uv v8, buildx v4, login v4, hadolint v3.3.0). helm stays 3.21.3:
already current for 3.x, and helm 4 is a breaking change, not a CVE fix.

trivy mattered most. A vulnerability scanner fourteen minor versions behind is
the one stale pin that hides all the others.

ruff target-version is deliberately py313 while the runtime is 3.14. It
controls the syntax the formatter may emit, and at py314 it rewrites
'except (A, B):' into PEP 758's unparenthesized form — which reads exactly
like Python 2's 'except E, name:' and is a hard SyntaxError below 3.14. No
semantic gain, real readability cost, in a repo meant to be read.

Verified on 3.14: ruff, ruff format, mypy --strict, 166 tests, helm lint,
bandit, pip-audit. The digest guard still rejects placeholder digests.

Risk carried knowingly: the bumped actions run on node24. If act_runner only
provides node20, every job fails at action startup and this commit is the
revert.

trivy took the worker image 39 -> 18 -> 5 findings across two version bumps, and
the last 5 (4x golang.org/x/net, 1x Go stdlib) live in kubectl v1.36.2 — the
newest kubectl that exists. No release clears them; upstream has not rebuilt
against the patched Go yet. Chasing the version further has no end.

kubectl was in that image for exactly one call: ensure_namespace before helm.
`helm upgrade --install --create-namespace` does the same thing, idempotently,
as part of the install it already runs. So the binary goes, and its vendored CVEs
go with it. read_secret had no callers.

Tradeoff recorded: the namespace no longer gets an svcforge.io/team label, since
--create-namespace makes a bare one. Nothing reads that label today.

CORRECTNESS
- lost-lease race: complete()/fail() did not check ownership, so a worker whose
  lease expired could mark a task done while another worker was running it, or
  requeue a task someone else owned. Reproduced, fixed with a CAS on
  (state, locked_by), pinned by two regression tests.
- worker died on report failure: _run_one's docstring claimed no exception
  escapes the TaskGroup; fail()/complete() were outside the guarded block, so a
  DB blip cancelled every sibling provision on the pod.
- claim query used an INNER join, which could strand a just-claimed task and
  report 'queue empty'. LEFT join.
- InstanceRepo.set_error bypassed the state machine and had no callers. Deleted.
- handle_deprovision ignored its CAS result, so a wrong-state instance kept a
  dangling endpoint and got re-provisioned by the drift check 60s later.
- handle_verify re-notified on every retry: five pages for one halt.

DEPLOY-BREAKING
- the migration Job could never succeed: no Dockerfile copied migrations/, and
  migrate.py resolved the path relative to the source tree, which only works for
  an editable install. Added COPY + SVCFORGE_MIGRATIONS_DIR.
- ServiceMonitor selector did not match the Service: API metrics never scraped.
- SvcforgeReconcilerStale fired permanently from every pod, because the gauge is
  module-level and every service exports it as 0. Scoped to the reconciler job.
- SvcforgeTaskFailed latched forever on a monotonic counter. Now increase()[15m].
- the digest guard accepted the all-zeros placeholder.
- worker terminationGracePeriodSeconds was 60s against a 600s helm timeout.

DEAD CODE THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN
- adapters/k8s.py was never called, so tenant namespaces were never created and
  the first provision for a new team would fail. Wired into handle_provision.
- adapters/redis.py was never imported by any service. Rate limiting is now wired
  into the API, failing open.
- Settings.check_production() had no callers. Given an explicit environment and
  called from every entrypoint.

OBSERVABILITY
- the API never called obs.setup(): no JSON logs, no trace correlation, log_json
  silently inert.
- LogNotifier's structured fields were discarded by the stdlib->structlog bridge.
- bind_task_context cleared the 'service' binding for the life of every task.
- split tasks_failed into task_attempts_failed and tasks_dead_lettered.

SECURITY
- trivy correctly blocked the worker/reconciler images: helm 3.16.2 and kubectl
  1.31.2 carry CRITICAL Go stdlib CVEs. Bumped to helm 3.21.3 and kubectl 1.35.3,
  which also closes a four-minor skew against the v1.35.3 cluster.

TESTS THAT COULD NOT FAIL
- the concurrency cap test passed on a fully serial worker.
- the alert/metric cross-check asserted a hardcoded list instead of reading the
  chart, so it could not catch a rename on the chart side.
- fixed OTel tracer-provider pollution between test files.

DOCS
- ARCHITECTURE.md: mermaid diagrams, user stories, and the helm-vs-ArgoCD
  guarantee (verified with --dry-run=server).
- AGENTS.md + CLAUDE.md.
- prose sweep for back-and-forth phrasing across 19 files.
