admin bb29186d62 SPIKE 3: [first-boot] does NOT fire on an interactive install
Findings only — no script, profile or build file changed; no release ISO built, nothing published.
documentation/audits/SPIKE-universal-iso-3-2026-07-31.md

MEASURED with a control from the SAME image (one ISO, 15 GRUB entries):
- Automated entry  -> hook fires: ttyS0 marker, marker file,
  /var/lib/proxmox-first-boot/proxmox-first-boot (0700), activation symlink, unit active.
- Terminal-UI entry, normal manual install -> ALL absent, and the proxmox-first-boot PACKAGE is
  not installed at all. A whole-filesystem grep for the marker returns nothing.

Mechanism cited: Config.pm:118 defaults first_boot.enabled=0 and set_first_boot_opt is never
called in the Perl tree; Install.pm:746 returns early without it; Install.pm:1360 skips the
package. proxinstall (graphical) has ZERO occurrences of first-boot. [first-boot] is an
automated-installer feature, unavailable on every interactive path by construction. R-154.

A delivery mechanism DOES exist and is UNTESTED: Install.pm:1343-1372 unpacks every .deb in the
ISO's /proxmox/packages/ into the target on every path (fixed skip-list), then dpkg --configure -a
runs postinsts (:1378) — how PVE ships first-boot itself. Read from source, not measured.

Q5: the public image should carry NO answer.toml at all — that removes the baked root hash, the
disk profile and the whole Spike 1-2 problem space, and makes it a one-line release gate. But
iso-repack.sh:100-106 refuses an ISO without auto-installer-mode.toml. R-155.

Incidental R-153: hub hostInstallVersion=1.19.0 vs SCRIPT_VERSION=1.22.0; hostinstall_gates.py
detects it and exits 1 — the gate works, nothing runs it.

Q3 (real stub at before-network) was NOT reached and is recorded as not reached.

Felhom — Documentation

Felhom is a managed home-server service for Hungarian households, built on a three-component model over Proxmox:

  • Hub — operator backend on k3s (hub.felhom.eu). Repo: felhom.eu/hub/.
  • Host agent — one per Proxmox host; operator-tier; owns all Proxmox interaction. Repo: felhom-agent/.
  • In-guest controller — one per customer LXC; Docker-only; manages the customer's apps. Repo: felhom-controller/.

This directory is the central, code-verified documentation home for all three components plus the platform and the security-audit record.

Sections

Controller (in-guest) — controller/

The Docker-only app-domain controller. Full per-area docs grounded in current source (v0.59.0). → controller/README.md: module map, deploy & stack lifecycle, backup architecture, storage/monitoring/metrics, auth/hub/sync/integrations.

Host agent & platform — architecture/, proxmox-platform.md

The operator-tier agent and the Proxmox platform.

Hub (operator backend) — architecture/05

Security audits & remediation — audits/

Spike & test findings — tests/

Per-slice spike/validation findings (phases 05, slices 710). See tests/.

Conventions

  • Code-verified, not memory-derived. Architectural claims here are checked against the actual current source; if a claim can't be verified it is omitted and flagged, not guessed.
  • Per-repo operational working files (CLAUDE.md, CONTEXT.md, CHANGELOG.md, BUGHUNT.md, REPORT.md, TASK.md) live in their own repos — they are operational, not published docs.
  • Authoritative versions at last refresh: controller v0.59.0, agent v0.29.1, hub v0.11.0.
