With asxpio-services described in nixos/, Ansible only has asxpio-ops
left. Drop the runner, SillyTavern and Minecraft roles, the services
host from both inventories, and the WireGuard client play.
The s3fs role and playbook go as well: the mounts were switched off on
asxpio-ops, and on asxpio-services nothing read them. The credentials
file the role once wrote on asxpio-ops stays, because the backup script
there reads it.
site.yaml against asxpio-ops still changes nothing.

Service changes were made by hand on the servers, which is how the
repository drifted. Apply site.yaml from a workflow instead: every
push dry-runs it against production, and a push to main applies it.
Jobs run in containers on asxpio-services. asxpio-ops is reached over
the private network; the services host is reached through asxpio-ops,
because a container connecting to its own host arrives from a Docker
bridge address that sshd and the firewall refuse. Host keys are pinned
in known_hosts.
Ansible comes from a pinned nixpkgs revision so every run uses the
same version.

The roles had drifted far from production: Forgejo was pinned at 12
while 15.0.11 runs, its config lacked the mailer, packages and the real
database path, and several services existed only on the hosts. Running
a role would have rolled production back. Take the servers as the truth
and make the repository match them.
site.yaml now holds the desired state of both hosts:
- base: unattended upgrades, fail2ban, Docker daemon config and the
weekly image prune, as found on the hosts. New: a 500M journal cap,
and the Docker systemd override is kept absent. That override once
opened dockerd on tcp/2375 without authentication.
- traefik: templates as deployed, version in a variable (v3.7.18).
The Coraza WAF files are removed; no router ever used them.
- forgejo: 15.0.11, app.ini generated from the live file with the
secrets taken from the vault.
- crawler_alert, sillytavern, minecraft, minecraft_fossils: added
from the hosts.
Forgejo's canonical name becomes git.asxp.io; git.czsk.it stays as an
alias on the same router.
docker_service restarts a stack when its config changes, no longer
forces ownership on existing data directories, and hides template
diffs because they carry secrets. Containers listed in
service_graceful_stop are saved and stopped with a long timeout before
compose recreates them: Docker's 10 s default is too short for a
Minecraft world. Both game servers get stop_grace_period for the same
reason.
Removed: the full-deployment and runner playbooks with their prompts,
the Forgejo backup and restore roles for the old bare-metal host, and
inventory entries for services that were never deployed. SSH hardening
stays a manual playbook, since a mistake there locks everyone out.
New secrets (SMTP, RCON, CurseForge key) went into the vault.

The role had drifted from what runs on asxpio-services: capacity 4,
a bridge network per workflow so service containers start, the Docker
socket automounted into jobs, and a nix-latest label backed by a
persistent nix-store volume.
That volume caused a CI outage on 2026-10-18. nixos/nix:latest moved on,
and since the image's /bin/sh and /etc/nix/nix.conf link into /nix/store,
the old volume left them dangling. Pin the image through
forgejo_runner_nix_version and name the volume after it, so a bump is
deliberate and always gets a store seeded from its own image.

On the 38 GB ops disk the s3fs cache reserve (ensure_diskfree) never
fit, so all three mounts failed at every boot since 2026-09-22. Backups
now go to Hetzner S3 with rclone instead.
Add s3fs_enabled (default true); when false the role unmounts the
buckets and drops their fstab entries, keeping the credentials file
that the rclone wrapper reads.
