Problem: 'defaults write' is not an onboarding path, it's a support
incident waiting to happen. Browser SPNEGO must be deployed via managed
policy at machine provisioning time, not per-user.
Changes:
etc/init_knoe_users.sh
- _op_ensure_auth(): tries OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN env, k8s secret
'op-service-account-token', existing interactive session, and op-run
inheritance — in that order. Gives actionable instructions when none
work, including the correct 'op run --' invocation documented in k3s.cfg.
- gitea_ensure_password(): calls _op_ensure_auth() at entry; eliminates
the silent 'op not authenticated' failure path.
- Script header: documents 'op run -- bash etc/init_knoe_users.sh' as
the intended invocation for admin's laptop.
- 'Next steps' output: replaces 'defaults write' with reference to
workstation_kerberos.yml Ansible playbook.
infrastructure/playbooks/workstation_kerberos.yml (new)
- Deploys /etc/krb5.conf (PROLE.ORG realm, myrddin KDC) to all managed
endpoints.
- Deploys Chrome + Edge managed policy (AuthServerAllowlist) on macOS
and Linux — no per-user browser configuration ever required.
- Idempotent; run during laptop provisioning or re-run at any time.
- Targets 'workstations' Ansible group.
infrastructure/inventory/hosts.ini
- Adds [workstations] group with example entries and onboarding notes.
