- Tighten Cluster Environment screen layout; switch Service/Prod to kubectx context selection; keep namespace and key controls on one line; ensure Repair button remains reachable.
- Add UI layout regression test to render with large mock data and assert key widgets remain visible and console is scrollable.
- Make kubeconfig generation deterministic under tests by avoiding overwriting cert-based kubeconfigs; write token sidecar kubeconfig when needed.
- Update common-services init scripts and add k3s/Helm deployment bits (svc-check, Kong/CertMgr tasks).
- Monitoring: Migrated from manual Grafana/Prometheus manifests to kube-prometheus-stack based setup in etc/init_monitoring.sh. Removed old manifest files from deploy/ and k8s/.
- Installer Core: Refactored installer with new modules for actions, environment handling, and UI screens. Enhanced Milestone logic to support advanced configuration (ArgoCD, Registry namespaces, Kerberos flags, etc.).
- Service & Init Scripts: Updated multiple initialization scripts (init_*.sh) for better integration with OpenBao, Kerberos, and the new monitoring stack. Added new scripts for Nginx Ingress, Ollama parsing, and K3D route fixes.
- Infrastructure: Enhanced Samba AD DC Ansible role with realm derivation, provisioning guidance, and group management. Updated K3s role tasks.
- Configuration: Refined default settings in conf/ to align with the new deployment architecture.
- App & Tools: Updated prole-app Swift code and prole.sh for improved environment variable handling and installation flow.
- Implement proactive CA hash verification and automated repair for mismatches
- Ensure agents prioritize discovered server tokens over stale vault values
- Fix K3s service hangs with explicit stop and killall before reinstall
- Add Retropie/Pi networking fixes (WiFi power save, wlan0 priority)
- Pin pre-staged images to stable, architecture-aware versions (arm64)
- Remove obsolete init-port-forwards and prole.cfg sync tasks
- Update k8s manifests and installer core logic with new tests
Repairs and improvements:
- iSCSI: Added cleanup tasks to remove stale mounts and fstab entries. Improved robustness of iSCSI target management and added 'iscsi_absent_mounts' support.
- K3s:
- Updated service start logic to accept 'activating' state, preventing premature failure during slow startups.
- Improved service stop logic to safely handle missing or not-found services.
- Ensured 'prole-installer' ServiceAccount and ClusterRoleBinding exist for K8s administration.
- Added leader election and etcd tuning arguments (forgiving leases) to config.yaml.j2.
- Removed deprecated 'prole-port-forwards' systemd service.
- Installer & Scripts:
- Updated legacy_tk.py to support K3s mode, secret resolution for passwords, and better environment management (including ~/.prole/env.sh for service mode).
- Updated init_ansible.sh to support PROLE_VAULT_PASS_FILE and ANSIBLE_VAULT_PASSWORD_FILE.
- Improved directory and kubeconfig path resolution in prole_cfg.sh to support fallback to ~/.prole.
- Enhanced Grafana password resolution in init_monitoring.sh.
- Added automatic application of iSCSI StorageClass and PersistentVolumes in init_openbao.sh.
- General: Switched conf/prole.cfg to k3s deployment mode and updated vault_k3s.yml token.
New Ansible Tasks and Playbooks:
- infrastructure/playbooks/iscsi_cleanup.yml: Automates logout and removal of stale iSCSI node records.
- infrastructure/playbooks/prole_logs_migrate.yml: Orchestrates /prole/logs migration to iSCSI storage.
- infrastructure/playbooks/tmp_bao_dir.yml: Ensures host-level storage directories for OpenBao.
- infrastructure/playbooks/tmp_mount.yml: Utility to verify and enforce host-level mounts.
- infrastructure/playbooks/k3s_sync.yml: Added tasks to start K3s after sync and update local kubeconfig on the controller.
- Added 'Unmount stale iSCSI mounts' and 'Remove stale iSCSI fstab entries' to the iscsi role.
- Added 'Ensure prole-installer service account exists' to the k3s role.
- Finalized stable, repeatable reset logic for the k3d pipeline.
- Refactored installer into modular components: core, milestone, runner, and state.
- Introduced new UI abstractions with support for ncurses and Tkinter.
- Updated initialization scripts and configurations for CloudNativePG, Kerberos, OpenBao, and Monitoring.
- Improved pipeline repair and port-forwarding mechanisms.
- install.py: Major update including configuration variable expansion, improved k3s/k3d handling, and enhanced installation logic.
- etc/ scripts: Significant refactoring of initialization scripts (Kerberos, Port Forwards, Garage Store, etc.).
