nixpkgs only carries Zitadel 2.71, which predates the login-v2 split and
cannot take a v3/v4 database (its migrations are forward-only), so the
instance running on the old Debian VPS could never have moved onto it.
authentik-nix ships 2026.5.4 and tracks upstream closely.
The authentik-nix input deliberately does not follow our nixpkgs, per
upstream's warning that overriding it breaks their pinned python
dependency set. That costs a second nixpkgs in the lock, so add
nix-community's Cachix to common.nix -- without it the closure is ~400
local derivations (npm, rust, python). The laptop that runs
scripts/deploy needs the same two lines in /etc/nix/nix.custom.conf.
Authentik's own module creates the database and orders its units against
postgresql.target, and recent versions need no redis, so the wiring is
just the module plus a secret. Pin postgresql explicitly so that editing
system.stateVersion can never silently demand a pg_upgrade of the
identity store.
Secret ownership is not uniform and the difference matters: authentik
and caddy take a systemd EnvironmentFile, which PID 1 reads as root
before dropping privileges, so root:root 0400 is correct. Headplane
opens its secret paths itself while already running as the headscale
user, so those three need an explicit owner or they fail to start.
Also on neptun:
- Pass Caddy's ACME account email through the same EnvironmentFile
mechanism and reference it with the Caddyfile {$VAR} placeholder.
services.caddy.email would render the address into the world-readable
store.
- Stop accepting MagicDNS from our own control server. headscale pushes
override_local_dns, so joining the tailnet would point neptun's
resolv.conf at a MagicDNS served by the tailscaled neptun itself hosts
-- a tailscaled failure would then also take out DNS, ACME renewal and
finally the certs for the control server every other node needs in
order to recover.
- Give headplane a writable DNS extra-records file. Its view of
headscale's config stays read-only, which is the right outcome for a
declarative box; records are data rather than config.
- Require a password for sudo. Deploys become interactive, but darman's
key is otherwise the only thing between the public internet and root.
- Enable zram (8 GB, and disko leaves no room for a swap device), and let
tailscaled-autoconnect retry instead of failing permanently when the
control server isn't up yet on a first boot.
networking.hosts still carries a PLACEHOLDER address for jupiter --
replace it from `headscale nodes list` once jupiter first enrols.

Group service modules by category (media, network, vpn, identity,
dev, desktop) to make the growing services/ dir easier to navigate.
containers.nix stays at the top level since it's a shared backend,
not a single-category service.

Shorten verbose multi-paragraph comments to essentials, and drop a
stale claim in common.nix that jupiter kept its own copy of the base
config (it now imports common.nix directly).

Path-route Headplane under /admin on the same vhost as headscale instead of
its own subdomain - Caddy handle blocks split on the prefix, headscale gets
everything else. base_url drops to the site root since Headplane appends
/admin (and the OIDC callback path) itself.
Wire Zitadel as the OIDC provider. client_id/client_secret/the headscale
API key can't be real until Zitadel and headscale are actually deployed and
an application/key exist, so those are REPLACE_ME placeholders for now
(documented in services/headplane.nix) - direct API-key login stays enabled
as a fallback so this can't lock anyone out in the meantime.

Headscale is the tailnet control server every host's services/tailscale.nix
already points at (--login-server=https://vpn.mgaction.town). MagicDNS
base_domain "hosts.mgaction.town" matches the "jupiter.hosts.mgaction.town"
names already used in this repo's Caddy vhosts.
Headplane is its web UI, running as headscale's own user (native process
integration, no container). No OIDC wired up - log in with a headscale API
key generated on the box. Both proxied through Caddy; headscale's vhost
needs flush_interval -1 since its node-update endpoint is a long-poll.

Local Postgres, peer-authed over the unix socket (the "zitadel" role is
granted createdb+createrole and doubles as both the runtime and bootstrap
DB user - no password anywhere). TLS terminates at Caddy; Zitadel listens
on localhost:8080 and is proxied at auth.mgaction.town.
Master key and admin bootstrap password come from sops - the admin
password specifically needs the sops.templates -> rendered-file route
(services.zitadel.steps would leak it into the world-readable Nix store),
same pattern as mercury's pihole.env.

Caddy only proxies HTTP; git-over-ssh to gitea needs a raw TCP forward
since gitea's built-in SSH server (jupiter:2222) isn't otherwise reachable
from the public internet. socat forwards the VPS's public :2222 over the
tailnet. Matches what's now live on the (still-Debian) VPS - ready to drop
in once neptun gets migrated to this NixOS config.

- sabnzbd, prowlarr, sonarr, radarr, clonarr, seerr, cinephage, mediamanager
services, wired into jupiter with LAN Caddy vhosts.
- Gitea: migrated the old ZimaOS docker instance's data (sqlite db, 4 repos,
no LFS objects) into the NixOS module's default stateDir layout. HTTP via
Caddy; git SSH on its own built-in server at :2222 (not :222 - the unpriv
gitea user can't bind <1024).
- mediamanager-nix flake input for the mediamanager service.
