# albok-service — fleet knowledgebase service (nh3-docker)
|
||
|
||
The FastAPI process that owns Albok's buildings-and-wings store (`vh/albok`,
|
||
`packages/albok-service`, contract `docs/contracts/unit2_service.contract.md`). It is the
|
||
**only writer** of the store. Deployed 2026-10-02 at albok-dev's request (operator-approved).
|
||
|
||
- **URL:** `http://albok.nh3.internal:8392` (= `http://10.100.50.40:8392`). Container port 8390.
|
||
⚠ Host port **8392**, because **8390 on nh3-docker is the althing post office**.
|
||
- **Image:** `gitea.phasefinal.com/pfi/albok-service:0.1.8` @ `sha256:239f900e…` (pinned in `compose.yaml`), built
|
||
2026-10-04 ~1115 from vh/albok `e653c29` (tag albok-service/v0.1.8; heid re-pass fixes over 0.1.7: keyword-index
|
||
lock mismatch, journal-stranding replay path, bypassable 400, link-kind handling in the collapse). fleet/memory
|
||
reindexed on it per albok-dev (their 0.1.7 stash + agent-feedback reindexes stand — 0.1.8 does not change what a
|
||
reindex writes).
|
||
Prior: 0.1.7 `sha256:0dbb8cc7…` (64f75dc), fleet/stash + personal/agent-feedback reindexed on it.
|
||
Prior: 0.1.6 `sha256:2b44c9d4…`, built
|
||
2026-10-04 ~0544 from vh/albok `6c1adcd` (tags albok-service/v0.1.6 + core v0.1.4; pushed by infra-ops on Prime's go). 0.1.6 is
|
||
the review fold on 0.1.5's search fix: the keyword-index build now takes a lock (two concurrent first queries could cross
|
||
ids or KeyError), the core search keyword is keyword-only (do not pin albok 0.1.3), and the store wrapper fails closed.
|
||
0.1.5 (below) was built 2026-10-03 ~2038 from `e70321c` (tags albok-service/v0.1.5 + core v0.1.3).
|
||
0.1.5 = search speed: an index on the facet table's object_id and one cached keyword index per wing (fleet/memory query 4.5 s → ~0.25 s warm;
|
||
the first search per wing after a start or an ingest rebuilds the keyword index, ~1.7 s). The facet index is built at the first open (~0.35 s, +17 MB).
|
||
**Measured live by albok-dev 2026-10-03 ~2245** (same idle container, before/after): fleet/memory top-5 median 3.97 s → **0.22 s** (n=5;
|
||
first query after start 2.11 s); all three wings top-20 5.62 s → **0.41 s** (n=3); an unseen query 0.39 s (n=3).
|
||
Prior: 0.1.4 (`3d6bdba`, version header from metadata) ~1611–2039; 0.1.3 (`fc4c97a`) 1558–1611; 0.1.2 (`544ecfd`) 0251–1558.
|
||
Built from albok-dev's local commit before the operator pushed it. Verified 2026-10-03 1000 with `git ls-remote`:
|
||
origin's `albok-service/v0.1.2` and `v0.1.2` are `544ecfd`, so the image matches the published tag. Image labels
|
||
carry the full SHA.
|
||
History: 0.1.0 (`0b37431`) 2026-10-02 1754–1805; 0.1.1 (`e349d50`) 1805 to 2026-10-03 0251.
|
||
- **Health:** `GET /health` (no auth) → `"status": "ok"` on 0.1.1. (0.1.0 always said `degraded`: its
|
||
canary reports `alive` and the check expected `ok`; fixed in 0.1.1.) The Docker healthcheck checks HTTP 200.
|
||
- **0.1.1 also accepts numeric `default_gid` / `gid` in the config**, which would make the mounted
|
||
`/etc/group` unnecessary. The current name-based config stays valid, so it is left as is.
|
||
- **Why 0.1.2:** 0.1.1 leaked a Chroma client (and its sqlite fds) on every health probe. After 9 h it held 1018 of
|
||
1024 fds, 478 of them deleted canary files, and `/health` and `/search` answered 500. 0.1.2 closes the client.
|
||
Verified 0251: 30 `/health` calls left the fd count at 59, with 0 deleted. The same count had caught the leak on
|
||
0.1.1. 0.1.2 also stamps `X-Albok-Service: <version>` on every response.
|
||
|
||
## Pieces and where they live
|
||
|
||
| What | Where |
|
||
|---|---|
|
||
| store root (one git repo per wing) | `/srv/albok/store` — local ext4, `albok:albok` 0711 |
|
||
| private root (lease, journal, tokens.db, per-wing chroma) | `/srv/albok/private` — local ext4, `albok:albok` 0700, **single-attach** |
|
||
| config (holds the embedder key) | `/srv/albok/etc/albok.yaml` — `root:albok` 0640; rendered from `conf/albok.yaml.template` |
|
||
| container `/etc/group` | `/opt/docker/conf/albok-service/group` (= `conf/group`) |
|
||
| compose | `/opt/docker/compose/albok-service/compose.yaml` |
|
||
|
||
**Identities (fixed numeric ids, created by `playbooks/albok-service-host.yaml`):** user and group
|
||
`albok` 1500:1500 (the image's user), read groups `albok-read` **1510** (building `fleet`) and
|
||
`albok-personal` **1511** (building `personal`). **`albok-feedback` 1512** = restricted wing `personal/agent-feedback` (2026-10-03, default-deny: no viewer is
|
||
in it). Reserve 1513+ for the vault wing and any later restricted wing; add each to the host, `conf/group` and `group_add`.
|
||
|
||
**Why the group file and `group_add`:** the service resolves group NAMES with `grp.getgrnam()`
|
||
inside the container and `chgrp`s wing dirs as uid 1500. Without the names in the container's
|
||
`/etc/group` it reports "group does not resolve", and without membership the chgrp is refused.
|
||
Verified: wings came up `drwxr-s--- albok:albok-read` / `albok:albok-personal`, drift 0.
|
||
|
||
**Secrets (vault):** `albok/litellm-key`, a LiteLLM key scoped to `qwen3-embedding` only (alias
|
||
`albok-service`; verified 200 on embeddings, 403 on any other model); `albok/bootstrap-admin-token`,
|
||
the first-start admin token (also at `/srv/albok/private/bootstrap-admin-token`, 0600).
|
||
**Nemi (albok's tagger, runs on nh3-dev):** `albok/token-nemi`, a service token minted 0255 with read+write on
|
||
`fleet/memory`, `fleet/stash` and `personal/agent-feedback`; it sees exactly those three wings (`personal/notes` hidden).
|
||
The previous token (`01M40979…`, without agent-feedback) is still live until albok-dev revokes it.
|
||
`albok/litellm-key-nemi`, alias `albok-nemi`, scoped to `gen-small`, `summarizer` and `qwen3-embedding`. Verified 200 on
|
||
all three and 403 on another model.
|
||
|
||
**Backups:** nh3-docker is VM 100 on nh3-pve, in the nightly 21:00 vzdump (snapshot mode → pbs-ana),
|
||
so `/srv/albok` is covered whole-VM. No file-level restic job for it.
|
||
|
||
## Deploy / redeploy
|
||
|
||
⚠ **Do not restart the service in the middle of a Nemi walk.** The hourly walk on nh3-dev (`services/albok-nemi/`) fails with
|
||
`Unreachable` and mails OnFailure; that happened 2026-10-03 16:11 at the 0.1.4 redeploy. It is harmless, since the next walk redoes the
|
||
work and the service commits per batch, but avoidable. Check first, on nh3-dev as lkraven:
|
||
`flock -n ~/.local/state/albok-nemi/run.lock true && echo idle || echo WALK RUNNING`
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# 1. host prep (idempotent)
|
||
scripts/elway infra-ops@10.100.50.40 --playbook playbooks/albok-service-host.yaml
|
||
# 2. config: render the template with the vaulted key (never commit the rendered file)
|
||
umask 077; secret get albok/litellm-key | tr -d '\n' | python3 -c "import sys; k=sys.stdin.read(); \
|
||
open('/tmp/albok.yaml','w').write(open('stacks/albok-service/conf/albok.yaml.template').read().replace('__ALBOK_LITELLM_KEY__', k))"
|
||
scripts/elway infra-ops@10.100.50.40 --upload /tmp/albok.yaml:/srv/albok/etc/albok.yaml:0640 --sudo --owner root:albok
|
||
# then delete /tmp/albok.yaml by its literal path
|
||
# 3. compose + conf, then start (root holds the registry login on nh3-docker)
|
||
scripts/deploy-stack.sh nh3-docker albok-service
|
||
ssh infra-ops@10.100.50.40 'cd /opt/docker/compose/albok-service && sudo docker compose up -d'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Image rebuild** (from a clean archive, never a working tree):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git -C ~/development/albok archive <sha> | tar -x -C <scratch>
|
||
cd <scratch> && docker build -f packages/albok-service/Dockerfile -t gitea.phasefinal.com/pfi/albok-service:<ver> .
|
||
secret get nh3-dev/.config/claude-bot/gitea-token-sdkops | docker login gitea.phasefinal.com -u claude-bot --password-stdin
|
||
docker push gitea.phasefinal.com/pfi/albok-service:<ver> # then pin the new digest in compose.yaml
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Viewers (read-only access to the store)
|
||
|
||
Mount `/srv/albok/store` **`:ro`**, `group_add` the read group's **numeric** gid (1510 / 1511), set
|
||
`GIT_OPTIONAL_LOCKS=0`, and add `safe.directory` for the path as the viewer sees it. Nothing else
|
||
may mount the store read-write.
