Gabriel Radureau c00c4cdd5c feat(multi-env): Phase B — make factory machinery env-capable (no activation)
ADR-0002 Phase B. Makes postgres/iac, argocd, and the conventions docs
multi-environment-capable WITHOUT activating any sandbox yet — every app
stays prod-only, so this change is behaviour-neutral:
  - postgres/iac `tofu plan` is a no-op (proven: the elision flatten keys
    are bare app names, db=<app>, role=<app>_role — identical addresses)
  - the argocd apps.yaml render is byte-identical (181→181 lines, diff
    empty) since no app declares `envs`

postgres/iac:
- variables.tf: `applications` becomes set(object({name, envs=optional(["prod"])}))
- main.tf: a `local.app_instances` flatten of applications × envs keyed by the
  elided instance id (env=prod → "<app>"); per-app resources iterate it and
  reference each.key / each.value.{database,role}. For prod-only apps every
  resource address + attribute is unchanged. (main.tf also got a full
  `tofu fmt` pass — the pgbouncer function block reindents 4→2 spaces, which
  is cosmetic; the correctness gate is the CI tofu plan, not the text diff.)
- terraform.tfvars: string entries → { name = "..." } objects.

argocd/templates/apps.yaml:
- after the prod Application, a `range $app_attr.envs` loop renders one extra
  Application per non-prod env: name/namespace `<app>-<env>`, shared repoURL,
  helm.valueFiles [values.yaml, values-<env>.yaml], per-env syncPolicy override.
  Renders nothing while no app sets `envs` → prod render unchanged.

docs:
- doc/runbooks/new-web-app/conventions.md (FR, authoritative): new section
  "Plusieurs environnements pour une même app" — elision rule, suffix rule,
  snake-case owner-role exception, erp/erp-sandbox table, ADR-0002 link.
- vibe/guidebooks/lab-ecosystem/naming-conventions.md (EN mirror): the env
  coordinate section + a "Two sandbox models" section reconciling the
  separate-cluster (ADR-0001, names repeat) vs in-cluster sibling (ADR-0002,
  <env> suffix) strategies; Last Updated bumped; ADR-0002 cross-links.

Activation (erp gets envs=["prod","sandbox"] in postgres tfvars + argocd
values + erp/iac) is Phase D, gated by its own plan review.

Refs ADR-0002 (factory#15). Phase A = tools#2 (merged). Phase C = erp#11 (merged).

Guidebooks

What a guidebook is

A guidebook is a tree-doc reference map of the lab: a navigable set of linked Markdown pages (a root index, per-folder README hubs, and leaf pages wired with breadcrumbs and bidirectional cross-references) whose job is to describe how the system is actually wired right now — components, the conventions that join them, and the data/control flows between them.

Guidebooks are descriptive maps, not procedures. They answer "how does this fit together?" For "how do I execute X step by step?" see the runbooks. For "why was it built this way?" see the architecture decision records under doc/adr.

  1. The lab system spans three repos — factory, tools, and cms — joined by the <app> naming convention.
  2. A guidebook surveys that system and renders it as a tree-doc reference map: indexed folders, breadcrumb-linked leaves, Mermaid flow diagrams.
  3. A reader (a human onboarding, or an agent planning a change) consumes the guidebook to understand how the pieces wire together before touching anything.

Key maintenance rule

Important

If a component documented in a guidebook is altered, the guidebook page describing it MUST be updated in the same change. A reference map that drifts from reality is worse than no map — it sends readers (and agents) confidently down dead paths. Treat the guidebook edit as part of the diff, not a follow-up: the PR that changes the component is the PR that updates its guidebook page.

Index

Guidebook What it maps Status
Lab ecosystem End-to-end map of factory + tools + cms: repos, the <app> join key, secrets via Vault, CI/CD, ArgoCD, and the data/control flows that connect them Active
Factory provisioning Deep dive into how factory provisions everything: Ansible playbooks + roles and OpenTofu Active
Tools Deep dive into the lab platform services in the tools namespace (Vault+VSO, Prometheus, Grafana, CrowdSec, poolers, Redis, Plausible, ClickHouse) Active
CMS Deep dive into the public Nuxt site arcodange.fr + its Cloudflare DNS/tunnel/Turnstile and Zoho email IaC Active
Applications The deployed apps and the common pattern they share — webapp (Go + Postgres) and url-shortener (Rust + SQLite); erp has its own guidebook Active
ERP The labs Dolibarr ERP — its deployment on Postgres, its document storage + backup/restore, and the read-only ops CLI (the most data-critical app) Active

Rules to contribute

  1. Use the tree-docs skill. Guidebooks are tree-docs: author and grow them with the skill so breadcrumbs, hubs, and cross-links stay consistent.
  2. Breadcrumb spine on every file. The first line of each page is its breadcrumb trail: ancestors are relative links, the current page is the bold-unlinked last item, separator is > (space-gt-space).
  3. README hub per subfolder. Every folder carries a README.md index hub: a table of its children (link + one-line summary + status), sorted by importance/sequence, never alphabetically.
  4. Bidirectional links. When page A references page B as related, page B references A back. Use descriptive link text — never "here" or "this".
  5. Mermaid preferences. Begin each diagram with a %%{init: {'theme': 'base'}}%% directive, define a classDef palette legible on both light and dark backgrounds (dark fills, light text), use HTML <br> for line breaks, and follow every diagram immediately with a numbered ordered list restating the same flow in words.
  6. Status legend. done · 🟡 beta · 🔴 critical · ⚠️ known issue · disabled · not started.
  7. Honour the maintenance rule above — update the relevant guidebook page in the same change that alters the component it documents.
