BF-22VC5 Status: acb-enrichment Deployment

Current Situation

What's Been Done

  • Located enrichment service source: cmd/acb-enrichment/
  • Verified Dockerfile is correct and well-structured
  • Confirmed enrichment is included in acb-build workflow template (lines 93-102)
  • Located deployment manifest: declarative-config/k8s/apexalgo-iad/ai-code-battle/acb-enrichment-deployment.yml

Blocker

The deployment manifest has placeholder SHA (sha256:placeholder) on line 40. To build the real image, I need to submit the acb-build workflow to iad-ci cluster.

Problem: The iad-ci.kubeconfig file referenced in project instructions (/home/coding/.kube/iad-ci.kubeconfig) does not exist on this machine.

Access attempts:

  • kubectl proxy at http://traefik-iad-ci.tail1b1987.ts.net:8001 works but is read-only
  • Cannot submit workflows through proxy (no create permissions)
  • acb-enrichment image doesn't exist on Docker Hub (confirmed via API)

What Needs to Happen

  1. Obtain write access to iad-ci cluster (iad-ci.kubeconfig)
  2. Submit acb-build workflow:
    kubectl create -f - <<EOF
    apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
    kind: Workflow
    metadata:
      generateName: acb-build-manual-
      namespace: argo-workflows
    spec:
      workflowTemplateRef:
        name: acb-build
    EOF
    
  3. Workflow builds all ACB images including acb-enrichment
  4. Workflow's update-declarative-config step updates deployment manifest with real SHA
  5. ArgoCD syncs the updated manifest to apexalgo-iad cluster

Alternative: Manual kubeconfig creation

The iad-ci cluster is a Rackspace Spot cluster. The kubeconfig can be downloaded from:

  1. Rackspace Spot Console → iad-ci cluster → Access
  2. Generate kubeconfig for ServiceAccount argocd-manager
  3. Save to /home/coding/.kube/iad-ci.kubeconfig

Current Status

  • BLOCKED: Missing iad-ci.kubeconfig for workflow submission
  • Enrichment Dockerfile: Verified correct
  • Workflow template: Verified includes enrichment
  • Deployment manifest: Has placeholder SHA, needs real image
