nh3-dev was reaching gitea over the public route from every repo on the box. brokkr-smithy-dev flagged it while pushing a new repo: brokkr-smithy, sleipnir, Galdrabok and kvasir all carried git@gitea.phasefinal.com remotes, and brokkr-smithy is pushed several times a week, so the fail2ban trigger this doc already warned about was live and recurring rather than dormant. Measured before changing anything, because the plausible explanation was a split-horizon rewrite making the public name internally correct: getent hosts gitea.phasefinal.com -> 38.120.12.44 (public, ana-srv1) grep -i gitea ~/.ssh/config -> nothing ssh -G git@gitea.phasefinal.com -> hostname gitea.phasefinal.com, port 22 No rewrite, no alias, no per-repo exception. A `Host gitea.phasefinal.com` block pointing at 10.250.50.70:222 now covers every repo on the box at once, which beats rewriting N remotes: it also catches repos nobody audited and fresh clones that copy the public URL out of a README, and nothing has to be remembered next time. Verified as a route change and not just a config edit: both paths already authenticated as `vh` with the same key, and `git ls-remote origin HEAD` succeeds over the alias in brokkr-smithy and in this repo. Backup at ~/.ssh/config.bak-20260917-020929. The alias is per-host; the doc now says to check `ssh -G` rather than assume another host inherits it.

Navigation map for the documentation tree. New session? Read
orientation.md first — it's the narrative overview
of the fleet, backup architecture, governing principles, and gotchas,
and it points at everything else.

What goes where
runbooks/— step-by-step ops procedures. Anything you'd reach for during an incident or while standing up new infrastructure. Examples: disaster recovery (blast-radius tiers + restoration steps), PBS deployment (9-phase rollout). New runbook → new file here.pfi/— PFI-specific reference material that's too narrow for the top-level CLAUDE.md but doesn't change incident response. AI model inventory, recommended inference settings, Matrix bridge config, Proxmox VM map. New stable reference → new file here.- Top-level (
docs/orientation.md,docs/README.md) — narrative guides about the workspace itself, not about specific infra.

Conventions
- Markdown, GitHub-flavored. CommonMark renders fine in most viewers.
- File names are lowercase-kebab-case, descriptive. No dates in filenames — git history covers that.
- One topic per file. If a file grows past ~500 lines, look for a natural split before adding more.
- No checked-in binaries or checksums. Build/release artifacts belong
in a build pipeline or
tools/, notdocs/.
