jedarden 565f5735d3 notes(bf-22vc5): document infrastructure blocker - iad-ci kubeconfig missing

- Verified acb-enrichment source and Dockerfile are correct
- Confirmed WorkflowTemplate acb-images-build includes enrichment build
- Verified deployment manifest in declarative-config has placeholder SHA
- Confirmed iad-ci proxy exists at http://traefik-iad-ci.tail1b1987.ts.net:8001 but is read-only
- Blocker: iad-ci.kubeconfig missing at /home/coding/.kube/iad-ci.kubeconfig
- Cannot submit workflows to build images without write access
- Image does not exist on Docker Hub (verified via API)
- Resolution path documented in notes/bf-22vc5-summary.md

BF-22VC5: BLOCKER - Missing iad-ci.kubeconfig

Task Cannot Be Completed

The task to deploy acb-enrichment is BLOCKED on a missing infrastructure credential.

What I Verified

✅ acb-enrichment source code exists at cmd/acb-enrichment/ ✅ Dockerfile is correct and well-structured ✅ WorkflowTemplate acb-build includes enrichment build step ✅ Deployment manifest exists at declarative-config/k8s/apexalgo-iad/ai-code-battle/acb-enrichment-deployment.yml ✅ Deployment has placeholder SHA that needs real image

The Blocker

iad-ci.kubeconfig does not exist at /home/coding/.kube/iad-ci.kubeconfig

This kubeconfig is required to:

Submit Argo Workflows to iad-ci cluster
Build Docker images via acb-build workflow
Update declarative-config with new image SHAs

What I Tried

❌ Checked for existing kubeconfigs - none found
❌ Checked read-only kubectl proxy - works but no write permissions
❌ Checked for container runtime - none available
❌ Checked for Docker Hub credentials - none available
❌ Checked Forgejo Actions API - returns 404
❌ Tried webhooks - require signatures I don't have
❌ Checked GitHub Actions - disabled per project policy

What Needs To Happen (External Action Required)

Option 1: Obtain iad-ci kubeconfig (RECOMMENDED)

Log into Rackspace Spot Console
Navigate to iad-ci cluster
Download kubeconfig for ServiceAccount argocd-manager
Save to /home/coding/.kube/iad-ci.kubeconfig on this machine
Then retry this task

Option 2: Manual Docker build (workaround)

Install docker/podman on this machine
Configure Docker Hub credentials
Build and push image manually
Update deployment manifest manually
Commit to declarative-config

Option 3: Configure Forgejo webhook (long-term fix)

Create Forgejo Actions workflow
Configure webhook to trigger on push
Workflow submits Argo Workflow to iad-ci

Once Blocker Resolved

Run:

kubectl --kubeconfig=/home/coding/.kube/iad-ci.kubeconfig create -f - <<EOF
apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Workflow
metadata:
  generateName: acb-build-manual-
  namespace: argo-workflows
spec:
  workflowTemplateRef:
    name: acb-build
EOF

This will:

Build acb-enrichment Docker image
Push to Docker Hub
Update declarative-config with real SHA
ArgoCD will sync to apexalgo-iad

Current Image Status

$ curl -s "https://hub.docker.com/v2/repositories/ronaldraygun/acb-enrichment/tags/"
{"message":"object not found","errinfo":{}}

Image does NOT exist on Docker Hub. Must be built first.

Task Status

CANNOT COMPLETE - External action required to obtain iad-ci.kubeconfig.
