The sweep needs the quality token, and the grant was applied to the live policy. Recording it here keeps the definition and the cluster agreeing about this path. Note for whoever reconciles this properly: the live maintenance policy grants 22 paths and this list names 7. sync_k8s_auth replaces a role's policy wholesale from read_paths, so running it today would revoke nextcloud, wger, firefly, comms and metis access from Ariadne. Its cron is 0 0 1 1 * - once a year - which is why the drift has survived rather than been caught. Widening this list to match reality is worth doing deliberately, not as a side effect of adding one path. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
ariadne
Ariadne is the Atlas admin and account automation service.
It sits behind the portal and handles the jobs that are annoying or risky to do by hand: approving access, syncing account state, rotating service passwords, cleaning stale Kubernetes work, checking platform health, and keeping a few service integrations lined up.
How it works
Ariadne is a FastAPI service with a small scheduler. It talks to Keycloak, Vault, Mailu, Nextcloud, Wger, Firefly, Jenkins, Metis, Kubernetes, and a few Atlas-specific services through focused adapters under ariadne/services/.
The API is split between admin routes, account self-service routes, internal event hooks, and Prometheus metrics. Background jobs store run history in the Ariadne database so failures can be inspected later instead of vanishing into logs.
The following are notes for future Brad.
Bring-up dependencies
Ariadne needs:
- Kubernetes API, service DNS, and Ariadne's service account/RBAC
- the Ariadne database, plus the portal database if portal/account sync is enabled
- Vault or the Kubernetes secrets that Vault normally feeds it
- Keycloak/OIDC, because auth and profile sync assume it exists
- ingress/proxy plumbing if humans are going to use it through the portal
- the services for whatever jobs are enabled: Mailu, Nextcloud, Vaultwarden, Wger, Firefly, Jenkins, Metis, OpenSearch, and the comms/game-mode pieces
It can start before every integration is perfect, but the matching scheduled jobs will fail or no-op until their service is actually alive. In a total bring-up, wait for storage, Flux, Postgres, Vault, Keycloak, and ingress first. Afterwards Ariadne becomes useful glue.

Development
python -m pytest
ruff check .
Most runtime behavior is configured through environment variables in ariadne/settings.py. Service-specific logic is in the small adapter modules; ariadne/app.py is focused on request flow and task orchestration.
