Hermes Agent service account d9e41118f8 feat(openviking): pilot deployment to fastpass (wave 8)
Platform Knowledge Infrastructure pilot - context database for large
file trees, shared skills, and long-term logs to reduce agent token
consumption. Pilot scope: two corpora (hermes/ skills library,
personal/homelab/), two consumer profiles (Wong, Shuri) for before/after
token comparison.

- namespace.yaml: openviking namespace, sync-wave 8 (after Harbor wave 7)
- externalsecret.yaml: credentials from 1Password via onepassword-connect
  ClusterSecretStore (Wong, t_32766900)
- values.yaml: Helm overrides - px-fa-direct-access storage (30Gi),
  embedding (nomic-embed-text-v1.5) + VLM (Llama-3.1-8B) via astro-orbiter
  router (:8002), internal-only ingress
- application.yaml: multi-source ArgoCD Application, Harbor pattern
  (Peter Parker, t_eefdcc17 + reconciled in t_3e54efa8)

Prerequisites verified complete before this commit:
- nomic-embed-text-v1.5-Q4_K_M live on astro-orbiter router (War Machine,
  t_34b96e83, commit ad70b34)
- All 3 1Password items provisioned (root/embedding/vlm api keys)
- Storage class corrected to px-fa-direct-access after live PV audit
  showed pure-block/pure-file have zero provisioned volumes (t_77b3ff79)
- Dry-run validated against live cluster prior to commit

Constraint: vault (~/friday) remains canonical source of truth; OpenViking
index is a derived cache, rebuilt from vault source files.

Honcho/lincoln explicitly out of scope for this work.

# OpenViking Phase 1: ExternalSecret Manifests — Handoff Summary
**Status:** COMPLETE
**Task:** Wong, t_32766900
**Date:** 2026-08-13
**Destination:** Gitea rblundon/homelab, cluster/platform/openviking/
## Deliverables
### Primary Manifest
- **File:** `externalsecret-phase1.yaml`
- **Purpose:** Syncs OpenViking credentials from 1Password mk-labs vault
- **Status:** Validated (kubectl apply --dry-run=client: PASS)
### Documentation
- **File:** `PHASE-1-HANDOFF.md` (this file)
- **Purpose:** Handoff notes for Phase 2 coordination
## Manifest Details
**ExternalSecret Name:** openviking-credentials
**Target Namespace:** openviking
**ClusterSecretStore:** onepassword-connect (existing, proven)
**Refresh Interval:** 1h
**Sync Wave:** 8 (ArgoCD annotation)
**Pattern:** Harbor proven pattern (single consolidated manifest)
## 1Password Item Requirements
The manifest references three 1Password items in the mk-labs vault:
### Item 1: openviking-root-api-key
- **Field:** root-api-key (CONCEALED)
- **Status:** EXISTS (per dashboard confirmation)
- **Purpose:** OpenViking server root API key
### Item 2: openviking-embedding-api-key
- **Field:** api-key (CONCEALED)
- **Status:** NEEDS CREATION
- **Recommended Value:** local-nomic-embed
- **Purpose:** Embedding model endpoint (nomic-embed-text-v1.5 at astro-orbiter:8002)
- **Note:** Local endpoint, placeholder token only — no cloud authentication needed
### Item 3: openviking-vlm-api-key
- **Field:** api-key (CONCEALED)
- **Status:** NEEDS CREATION
- **Recommended Value:** local-llama-vlm
- **Purpose:** VLM endpoint (Llama-3.1-8B at astro-orbiter:8002)
- **Note:** Local endpoint, placeholder token only — no cloud authentication needed
## Workaround for Missing 1Password Items
If separate 1Password items cannot be created due to permissions:
1. Add fields to existing "openviking" item:
- `embedding_api_key` (CONCEALED): local-nomic-embed
- `vlm_api_key` (CONCEALED): local-llama-vlm
2. Update manifest remoteRef.key fields:
- Change from `openviking-embedding-api-key` to `openviking`
- Change from `openviking-vlm-api-key` to `openviking`
3. Update manifest remoteRef.property fields:
- Change from `api-key` to `embedding_api_key`
- Change from `api-key` to `vlm_api_key`
## Dependencies & Constraints
**Phase 1 Constraints Satisfied:**
- Vault canonical: acknowledged (vault is canonical source for OpenViking index)
- Honcho out of scope: confirmed (no Honcho/lincoln references)
- Pilot scope only: confirmed (two corpora, two profiles)
**Phase 2 Dependencies:**
- namespace.yaml must create `openviking` namespace before ExternalSecret deployment
- ExternalSecret must sync before pod startup
- 1Password items must exist before sync (read-only ClusterSecretStore)
**External Dependencies:**
- Model staging: nomic-embed-text-v1.5 must be staged on astro-orbiter:8002 before pod startup
- ClusterSecretStore: onepassword-connect must be healthy
## Coordination Notes for Peter Parker (Phase 2)
**ClusterSecretStore Naming Discrepancy:**
- Phase 1 uses: `onepassword-connect` (proven, existing on cluster)
- Your Phase 2 manifests reference: `1password-mk-labs` (does not currently exist)
**Resolution Options:**
1. Create `1password-mk-labs` as alias/new ClusterSecretStore
2. Update Phase 1 manifest to match your reference
3. Update Phase 2 manifests to use `onepassword-connect`
**Next Steps:**
1. Clarify ClusterSecretStore naming
2. Verify/create 1Password items 2 & 3
3. Create openviking namespace
4. Deploy Phase 1 ExternalSecret
5. Deploy Phase 2 (Helm values, ArgoCD Application)

## Manifest Validation
```bash

# Result: externalsecret.external-secrets.io/openviking-credentials created (dry run)
```
