Four related hardening changes made on the live cluster during this
session. Each manifest captures the final working state so a fresh
`kubectl apply` of the repo reproduces it.
1. Cloudflare Full (strict) TLS — ingresses now carry `tls:` blocks
pointing at `cloudflare-origin-cert` secret (installed imperatively
from the CF Origin CA PEM). CF SSL mode flipped from Flexible to
Full (strict). CF↔origin is now HTTPS; origin serves a CF-issued
cert that only CF can validate.
2. Traefik middleware attached to all three ingresses — `rate-limit`
(100/min avg, 200 burst) and `security-headers` (frame-deny,
nosniff, HSTS, referrer policy, permissions policy). `admin-auth`
middleware was also defined in middleware.yaml but is not attached
(needs an unset basic-auth secret) and was deleted at runtime.
3. `security-headers` middleware: stripped the
Content-Security-Policy entry. The Go API sets its own CSP in
internal/router/router.go that permits Google Fonts for the
landing page. Two CSP headers combine via intersection (most
restrictive wins), which would break the landing page. Next.js
apps set their own CSP via middleware. Header kept documentation
comments explain this.
4. NetworkPolicies — default-deny + explicit allows, applied. Added
missing policies for `web`. Corrected the Traefik ingress rule: the
scaffold used `namespaceSelector: kube-system`, but our Traefik
runs as a DaemonSet with `hostNetwork: true`, so traffic arrives
with the NODE IP as source. Fixed to an `ipBlock` list of the
three node IPs plus the cluster pod CIDR (10.42.0.0/16).
5. admin livenessProbe path fix: was hitting /admin/ (404) which
caused a 6-hour crashloop cycle (87 restarts) before the bug was
caught. Fixed to / — matches the startupProbe and readinessProbe
paths that were corrected earlier.

Mirrors the prod deploy-k3s/ setup but runs all services in-cluster
on a single node: PostgreSQL (replaces Neon), MinIO S3-compatible
storage (replaces B2), Redis, API, worker, and admin.
Includes fully automated setup scripts (00-init through 04-verify),
server hardening (SSH, fail2ban, ufw), Let's Encrypt TLS via Traefik,
network policies, RBAC, and security contexts matching prod.
