R de Ren 33a794e35d feat(sso): wire Keycloak SSO end-to-end across all apps
New stack:
- stacks/oauth2-proxy/ — per-app sidecars (mlflow, portainer, rabbitmq)
  that gate vhosts via nginx auth_request against Keycloak's wbd realm.

Native OIDC wired into:
- grafana       (generic_oauth, role-attribute-path → Admin/Editor/Viewer)
- jupyterhub    (oauthenticator.GenericOAuthenticator)
- node-red      (passport-openidconnect; in-memory state store + users()
                 resolver because adminAuth doesn't expose req.session)
- jenkins       (oic-auth plugin via JCasC; matrix-auth for authz; setup
                 wizard suppressed; custom image with plugins.txt)

Infra fixes uncovered while bringing the above online:
- nginx-proxy: bump proxy_buffer_size to 16k so oauth2-proxy callbacks
  don't 502 on the JWT-bearing Set-Cookie header.
- nginx-proxy: add `resolver 127.0.0.11 valid=30s` so service names
  re-resolve after sidecar recreates (was cross-wiring oauth2-proxy
  upstreams after restart).
- jupyterhub: pass --allow-root to the singleuser spawner (hub runs as
  root inside its container; jupyter-server refused root without flag).
- jupyterhub Dockerfile: install jupyterlab + notebook so
  SimpleLocalProcessSpawner has something to launch.
- node-red Dockerfile: install passport-openidconnect into the image
  so settings.js can require() it.
- portainer: pre-seed local admin via --admin-password=<bcrypt-hash>
  so the 5-minute "no admin → lockout" timer can never trigger.
- deploy.sh: restore executable bit (was 644 in repo).

Admin/viewer policy:
- Created realm role `app-admin` in keycloak wbd realm.
- Grafana maps app-admin → Admin (default Viewer).
- Jenkins matrix-auth grants r.de.ren Overall/Administer, authenticated
  users get Overall/Read + Job/Read + View/Read.
- Node-RED: NODERED_ADMIN_USERS env list → permissions "*", others
  ["read"]. (TODO: switch to app-admin realm role.)
- JupyterHub: JUPYTERHUB_ADMIN_USERS env list. (Same TODO.)
- Gitea: r.de.ren pre-created as local admin; OIDC auto-links via email.

Docs:
- README, cloud/README, stacks/oauth2-proxy/README, and per-stack
  READMEs updated to reflect the new state and remove resolved TODOs.
- cloud/.env.example gains all the new OIDC client + cookie-secret keys.
- cloud/README documents the full kcadm realm bootstrap, including the
  hardcoded-audience mapper and post-logout redirect URIs that are
  non-obvious gotchas.

portainer

Docker container management UI — the "operator console" for cloud and edge.

Access

Portainer ingresses through nginx-proxy: https://ops.wbd-rd.nl/. No host port is published by default. For emergency ops (nginx down, etc.), uncomment the ports: block in compose.yml and docker compose up -d portainer to expose :9443 and :8000 directly.

Auth

Two layers:

  1. Keycloak SSO gate — the nginx vhost calls auth_request against oauth2-proxy-portainer (Keycloak wbd realm, client portainer-ce). Anyone not in the realm is bounced to Keycloak login.
  2. Portainer local admin — once past the SSO gate, Portainer asks for its own credentials. Portainer-CE has no native OIDC, so there's no way to skip this second step on CE. The admin user is pre-seeded at boot via --admin-password=<bcrypt-hash> (see compose), with the hash stored in .env as PORTAINER_ADMIN_PASSWORD_HASH.

Pre-seeding the admin bypasses Portainer's "5-minute setup window or lockout" behavior on fresh installs.

Generating the bcrypt hash

docker run --rm python:3.13-alpine sh -c \
  "pip install -q bcrypt && python -c \"import bcrypt; print(bcrypt.hashpw(b'<your-password>', bcrypt.gensalt()).decode())\""

Double every $ in the resulting hash before pasting into .env ($2b$$$2b$$) — Compose interpolates single $.

Edge-agent topology

Port 8000 accepts reverse tunnels from edge sites running the portainer/agent image. The central cloud Portainer then manages every edge Docker host. Agent-side config lives under sites/<plant>/ once edge stacks are wired up.

Networks

  • mgmt — Docker management plane
  • app — nginx-proxy reaches portainer:9443 from here
  • Docker socket: read-only mount; effectively root-equivalent on the host. The Keycloak SSO gate is what limits who can talk to Portainer.

Volumes

  • portainer-data — Portainer DB (users, environments, stacks, settings)

TODO

  • Edge-agent provisioning workflow per site (agent secret, registration call)
  • Map the app-admin Keycloak realm role to a Portainer team via the OAuth2 team-sync API (CE supports this) so promotion doesn't require manual Portainer-side admin clicks
  • Drop the direct :9443 host port permanently (currently still commented but available)
