| # Concelier & Excititor Mirror Operations
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| This runbook describes how Stella Ops operates the managed mirrors under `*.stella-ops.org`.
 | ||
| It covers Docker Compose and Helm deployment overlays, secret handling for multi-tenant
 | ||
| authn, CDN fronting, and the recurring sync pipeline that keeps mirror bundles current.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## 1. Prerequisites
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| - **Authority access** – client credentials (`client_id` + secret) authorised for
 | ||
|   `concelier.mirror.read` and `excititor.mirror.read` scopes. Secrets live outside git.
 | ||
| - **Signed TLS certificates** – wildcard or per-domain (`mirror-primary`, `mirror-community`).
 | ||
|   Store them under `deploy/compose/mirror-gateway/tls/` or in Kubernetes secrets.
 | ||
| - **Mirror gateway credentials** – Basic Auth htpasswd files per domain. Generate with
 | ||
|   `htpasswd -B`. Operators distribute credentials to downstream consumers.
 | ||
| - **Export artifact source** – read access to the canonical S3 buckets (or rsync share)
 | ||
|   that hold `concelier` JSON bundles and `excititor` VEX exports.
 | ||
| - **Persistent volumes** – storage for Concelier job metadata and mirror export trees.
 | ||
|   For Helm, provision PVCs (`concelier-mirror-jobs`, `concelier-mirror-exports`,
 | ||
|   `excititor-mirror-exports`, `mirror-mongo-data`, `mirror-minio-data`) before rollout.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### 1.1 Service configuration quick reference
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Concelier.WebService exposes the mirror HTTP endpoints once `CONCELIER__MIRROR__ENABLED=true`.
 | ||
| Key knobs:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| - `CONCELIER__MIRROR__EXPORTROOT` – root folder containing export snapshots (`<exportId>/mirror/*`).
 | ||
| - `CONCELIER__MIRROR__ACTIVEEXPORTID` – optional explicit export id; otherwise the service auto-falls back to the `latest/` symlink or newest directory.
 | ||
| - `CONCELIER__MIRROR__REQUIREAUTHENTICATION` – default auth requirement; override per domain with `CONCELIER__MIRROR__DOMAINS__{n}__REQUIREAUTHENTICATION`.
 | ||
| - `CONCELIER__MIRROR__MAXINDEXREQUESTSPERHOUR` – budget for `/concelier/exports/index.json`. Domains inherit this value unless they define `__MAXDOWNLOADREQUESTSPERHOUR`.
 | ||
| - `CONCELIER__MIRROR__DOMAINS__{n}__ID` – domain identifier matching the exporter manifest; additional keys configure display name and rate budgets.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| > The service honours Stella Ops Authority when `CONCELIER__AUTHORITY__ENABLED=true` and `ALLOWANONYMOUSFALLBACK=false`. Use the bypass CIDR list (`CONCELIER__AUTHORITY__BYPASSNETWORKS__*`) for in-cluster ingress gateways that terminate Basic Auth. Unauthorized requests emit `WWW-Authenticate: Bearer` so downstream automation can detect token failures.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Mirror responses carry deterministic cache headers: `/index.json` returns `Cache-Control: public, max-age=60`, while per-domain manifests/bundles include `Cache-Control: public, max-age=300, immutable`. Rate limiting surfaces `Retry-After` when quotas are exceeded.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### 1.2 Mirror connector configuration
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Downstream Concelier instances ingest published bundles using the `StellaOpsMirrorConnector`. Operators running the connector in air‑gapped or limited connectivity environments can tune the following options (environment prefix `CONCELIER__SOURCES__STELLAOPSMIRROR__`):
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| - `BASEADDRESS` – absolute mirror root (e.g., `https://mirror-primary.stella-ops.org`).
 | ||
| - `INDEXPATH` – relative path to the mirror index (`/concelier/exports/index.json` by default).
 | ||
| - `DOMAINID` – mirror domain identifier from the index (`primary`, `community`, etc.).
 | ||
| - `HTTPTIMEOUT` – request timeout; raise when mirrors sit behind slow WAN links.
 | ||
| - `SIGNATURE__ENABLED` – require detached JWS verification for `bundle.json`.
 | ||
| - `SIGNATURE__KEYID` / `SIGNATURE__PROVIDER` – expected signing key metadata.
 | ||
| - `SIGNATURE__PUBLICKEYPATH` – PEM fallback used when the mirror key registry is offline.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| The connector keeps a per-export fingerprint (bundle digest + generated-at timestamp) and tracks outstanding document IDs. If a scan is interrupted, the next run resumes parse/map work using the stored fingerprint and pending document lists—no network requests are reissued unless the upstream digest changes.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## 2. Secret & certificate layout
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### Docker Compose (`deploy/compose/docker-compose.mirror.yaml`)
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| - `deploy/compose/env/mirror.env.example` – copy to `.env` and adjust quotas or domain IDs.
 | ||
| - `deploy/compose/mirror-secrets/` – mount read-only into `/run/secrets`. Place:
 | ||
|   - `concelier-authority-client` – Authority client secret.
 | ||
|   - `excititor-authority-client` (optional) – reserve for future authn.
 | ||
| - `deploy/compose/mirror-gateway/tls/` – PEM-encoded cert/key pairs:
 | ||
|   - `mirror-primary.crt`, `mirror-primary.key`
 | ||
|   - `mirror-community.crt`, `mirror-community.key`
 | ||
| - `deploy/compose/mirror-gateway/secrets/` – htpasswd files:
 | ||
|   - `mirror-primary.htpasswd`
 | ||
|   - `mirror-community.htpasswd`
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### Helm (`deploy/helm/stellaops/values-mirror.yaml`)
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Create secrets in the target namespace:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```bash
 | ||
| kubectl create secret generic concelier-mirror-auth \
 | ||
|   --from-file=concelier-authority-client=concelier-authority-client
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| kubectl create secret generic excititor-mirror-auth \
 | ||
|   --from-file=excititor-authority-client=excititor-authority-client
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| kubectl create secret tls mirror-gateway-tls \
 | ||
|   --cert=mirror-primary.crt --key=mirror-primary.key
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| kubectl create secret generic mirror-gateway-htpasswd \
 | ||
|   --from-file=mirror-primary.htpasswd --from-file=mirror-community.htpasswd
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| > Keep Basic Auth lists short-lived (rotate quarterly) and document credential recipients.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## 3. Deployment
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### 3.1 Docker Compose (edge mirrors, lab validation)
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| 1. `cp deploy/compose/env/mirror.env.example deploy/compose/env/mirror.env`
 | ||
| 2. Populate secrets/tls directories as described above.
 | ||
| 3. Sync mirror bundles (see §4) into `deploy/compose/mirror-data/…` and ensure they are mounted
 | ||
|    on the host path backing the `concelier-exports` and `excititor-exports` volumes.
 | ||
| 4. Run the profile validator: `deploy/tools/validate-profiles.sh`.
 | ||
| 5. Launch: `docker compose --env-file env/mirror.env -f docker-compose.mirror.yaml up -d`.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### 3.2 Helm (production mirrors)
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| 1. Provision PVCs sized for mirror bundles (baseline: 20 GiB per domain).
 | ||
| 2. Create secrets/tls config maps (§2).
 | ||
| 3. `helm upgrade --install mirror deploy/helm/stellaops -f deploy/helm/stellaops/values-mirror.yaml`.
 | ||
| 4. Annotate the `stellaops-mirror-gateway` service with ingress/LoadBalancer metadata required by
 | ||
|    your CDN (e.g., AWS load balancer scheme internal + NLB idle timeout).
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## 4. Artifact sync workflow
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Mirrors never generate exports—they ingest signed bundles produced by the Concelier and Excititor
 | ||
| export jobs. Recommended sync pattern:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### 4.1 Compose host (systemd timer)
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| `/usr/local/bin/mirror-sync.sh`:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```bash
 | ||
| #!/usr/bin/env bash
 | ||
| set -euo pipefail
 | ||
| export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=…
 | ||
| export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=…
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| aws s3 sync s3://mirror-stellaops/concelier/latest \
 | ||
|   /opt/stellaops/mirror-data/concelier --delete --size-only
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| aws s3 sync s3://mirror-stellaops/excititor/latest \
 | ||
|   /opt/stellaops/mirror-data/excititor --delete --size-only
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Schedule with a systemd timer every 5 minutes. The Compose volumes mount `/opt/stellaops/mirror-data/*`
 | ||
| into the containers read-only, matching `CONCELIER__MIRROR__EXPORTROOT=/exports/json` and
 | ||
| `EXCITITOR__ARTIFACTS__FILESYSTEM__ROOT=/exports`.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ### 4.2 Kubernetes (CronJob)
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Create a CronJob running the AWS CLI (or rclone) in the same namespace, writing into the PVCs:
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```yaml
 | ||
| apiVersion: batch/v1
 | ||
| kind: CronJob
 | ||
| metadata:
 | ||
|   name: mirror-sync
 | ||
| spec:
 | ||
|   schedule: "*/5 * * * *"
 | ||
|   jobTemplate:
 | ||
|     spec:
 | ||
|       template:
 | ||
|         spec:
 | ||
|           containers:
 | ||
|           - name: sync
 | ||
|             image: public.ecr.aws/aws-cli/aws-cli@sha256:5df5f52c29f5e3ba46d0ad9e0e3afc98701c4a0f879400b4c5f80d943b5fadea
 | ||
|             command:
 | ||
|               - /bin/sh
 | ||
|               - -c
 | ||
|               - >
 | ||
|                 aws s3 sync s3://mirror-stellaops/concelier/latest /exports/concelier --delete --size-only &&
 | ||
|                 aws s3 sync s3://mirror-stellaops/excititor/latest /exports/excititor --delete --size-only
 | ||
|             volumeMounts:
 | ||
|               - name: concelier-exports
 | ||
|                 mountPath: /exports/concelier
 | ||
|               - name: excititor-exports
 | ||
|                 mountPath: /exports/excititor
 | ||
|             envFrom:
 | ||
|               - secretRef:
 | ||
|                   name: mirror-sync-aws
 | ||
|           restartPolicy: OnFailure
 | ||
|           volumes:
 | ||
|             - name: concelier-exports
 | ||
|               persistentVolumeClaim:
 | ||
|                 claimName: concelier-mirror-exports
 | ||
|             - name: excititor-exports
 | ||
|               persistentVolumeClaim:
 | ||
|                 claimName: excititor-mirror-exports
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## 5. CDN integration
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| 1. Point the CDN origin at the mirror gateway (Compose host or Kubernetes LoadBalancer).
 | ||
| 2. Honour the response headers emitted by the gateway and Concelier/Excititor:
 | ||
|    `Cache-Control: public, max-age=300, immutable` for mirror payloads.
 | ||
| 3. Configure origin shields in the CDN to prevent cache stampedes. Recommended TTLs:
 | ||
|    - Index (`/concelier/exports/index.json`, `/excititor/mirror/*/index`) → 60 s.
 | ||
|    - Bundle/manifest payloads → 300 s.
 | ||
| 4. Forward the `Authorization` header—Basic Auth terminates at the gateway.
 | ||
| 5. Enforce per-domain rate limits at the CDN (matching gateway budgets) and enable logging
 | ||
|    to SIEM for anomaly detection.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## 6. Smoke tests
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| After each deployment or sync cycle (temporarily set low budgets if you need to observe 429 responses):
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ```bash
 | ||
| # Index with Basic Auth
 | ||
| curl -u $PRIMARY_CREDS https://mirror-primary.stella-ops.org/concelier/exports/index.json | jq 'keys'
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| # Mirror manifest signature and cache headers
 | ||
| curl -u $PRIMARY_CREDS -I https://mirror-primary.stella-ops.org/concelier/exports/mirror/primary/manifest.json \
 | ||
|   | tee /tmp/manifest-headers.txt
 | ||
| grep -E '^Cache-Control: ' /tmp/manifest-headers.txt   # expect public, max-age=300, immutable
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| # Excititor consensus bundle metadata
 | ||
| curl -u $COMMUNITY_CREDS https://mirror-community.stella-ops.org/excititor/mirror/community/index \
 | ||
|   | jq '.exports[].exportKey'
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| # Signed bundle + detached JWS (spot check digests)
 | ||
| curl -u $PRIMARY_CREDS https://mirror-primary.stella-ops.org/concelier/exports/mirror/primary/bundle.json.jws \
 | ||
|   -o bundle.json.jws
 | ||
| cosign verify-blob --signature bundle.json.jws --key mirror-key.pub bundle.json
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| # Service-level auth check (inside cluster – no gateway credentials)
 | ||
| kubectl exec deploy/stellaops-concelier -- curl -si http://localhost:8443/concelier/exports/mirror/primary/manifest.json \
 | ||
|   | head -n 5   # expect HTTP/1.1 401 with WWW-Authenticate: Bearer
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| # Rate limit smoke (repeat quickly; second call should return 429 + Retry-After)
 | ||
| for i in 1 2; do
 | ||
|   curl -s -o /dev/null -D - https://mirror-primary.stella-ops.org/concelier/exports/index.json \
 | ||
|     -u $PRIMARY_CREDS | grep -E '^(HTTP/|Retry-After:)'
 | ||
|   sleep 1
 | ||
| done
 | ||
| ```
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| Watch the gateway metrics (`nginx_vts` or access logs) for cache hits. In Kubernetes, `kubectl logs deploy/stellaops-mirror-gateway`
 | ||
| should show `X-Cache-Status: HIT/MISS`.
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| ## 7. Maintenance & rotation
 | ||
| 
 | ||
| - **Bundle freshness** – alert if sync job lag exceeds 15 minutes or if `concelier` logs
 | ||
|   `Mirror export root is not configured`.
 | ||
| - **Secret rotation** – change Authority client secrets and Basic Auth credentials quarterly.
 | ||
|   Update the mounted secrets and restart deployments (`docker compose restart concelier` or
 | ||
|   `kubectl rollout restart deploy/stellaops-concelier`).
 | ||
| - **TLS renewal** – reissue certificates, place new files, and reload gateway (`docker compose exec mirror-gateway nginx -s reload`).
 | ||
| - **Quota tuning** – adjust per-domain `MAXDOWNLOADREQUESTSPERHOUR` in `.env` or values file.
 | ||
|   Align CDN rate limits and inform downstreams.
