Replace the hardcoded hostname check (docker, pxe-boot) with a check
on config.fileSystems: any lxc-* host whose NixOS config declares an
NFS fileSystem entry is automatically made privileged. The script
already reads proxmoxLXC.privileged dynamically via
flake_target_lxc_privileged, so no logic change is needed there —
only the comment is updated to describe the new derivation.
Result: lxc-docker and lxc-pxe-boot (the two with NFS mounts) evaluate
as privileged=true; lxc-nix-cache, lxc-minimal, lxc-server,
lxc-tailscale-router, lxc-tor-relay evaluate as privileged=false.
Any future lxc-* host that declares an NFS mount gets the correct
privilege level for free without a separate manual edit.

The kernel's NFS client (FS_USERNS_MOUNT not set) rejects NFS mounts
from inside any unprivileged container's user namespace with EPERM —
AppArmor's mount=nfs feature only whitelists the AppArmor layer; the
VFS-level rejection happens before AppArmor is consulted.
lxc-pxe-boot mounts server.sweet.home:/tank/pxe-boot/images at
/mnt/pxe-images so nginx can serve large ISOs without filling the
container's root disk. Same pattern as lxc-docker (already privileged
for the same reason since it also mounts several NFS shares).
Operator action required: VMID 103 must be recreated as a privileged
container (the UID mapping on disk differs between privileged and
unprivileged; changing it in-place with pct set is unsafe). Rebuild
the tarball and use create-proxmox-resource.sh to replace it.

Proxmox LXC containers block the sunrpc filesystem (rpc_pipefs) via AppArmor
unless the container has `features: mount=nfs` set. NFSv4 requires rpc_pipefs
for client state management, so the mount fails outright in a default LXC.
Two fixes for the LXC case (config.boot.isContainer):
- Switch from nfsvers=4.2 to nfsvers=3,proto=tcp,nolock,nofail: NFSv3 doesn't
need rpc_pipefs at the protocol level, and nofail keeps boot clean if the
NFS server is unreachable.
- Add ConditionVirtualization=!container to var-lib-nfs-rpc_pipefs.mount via
systemd drop-in: NixOS pulls this unit into nfs-client.target for any NFS
fileSystems entry. With the condition, systemd skips (not fails) the unit in
containers, keeping nfs-client.target green and activation reporting clean.
Proxmox VM hosts (not isContainer) continue to use nfsvers=4.2 with
x-systemd.automount unchanged.

showmount and the NFSv3 mount protocol need mountd reachable after querying
portmapper on 111; the server was only opening TCP 111 and 2049, causing
clients (e.g. Proxmox GUI NFS storage scan) to time out connecting to
mountd on 20048. Also adds UDP for all three ports — portmapper, nfsd, and
mountd all use both protocols.

Adds modules/pxe-boot/mount-pxe-images.nix, which mounts
server.sweet.home:/tank/proxmox/pxe-images at /mnt/pxe-images via NFSv4.2
(x-systemd.automount on Proxmox VMs, nofail on LXC containers — same pattern
as docker/mount-data.nix). The pxe-boot build-type now imports this module and
replaces the previous local /srv/pxe/http/images directory rule with an L+
symlink pointing to /mnt/pxe-images, so large images (ISOs, disk images) live
on the NFS share rather than the host's own root disk.

Adds a `fetch-debian-netboot.service` oneshot that downloads the Debian
bookworm netboot kernel and initrd from deb.debian.org on first boot,
stages them under /srv/pxe/http/debian/, and serves them via a generated
debian.ipxe chain script. The service is idempotent — it skips the
download if both files are already present.
Also merges the previously split systemd.tmpfiles.rules and
systemd.services blocks into a single systemd = { ... } attrset to
satisfy statix's repeated-keys lint.

extraCommands runs after nixos-nat-post is deleted but before it is
re-created, so -A nixos-nat-post silently fails every time. POSTROUTING
is a built-in chain that always exists; target it directly instead.
The -C idempotency check prevents duplicate rules on firewall reloads.
Drop networking.nat.enable -- it was only needed for the sub-chain that
turned out to be the wrong target.

networking.nat.externalInterface without internalInterfaces creates the
nixos-nat-post chain but inserts no MASQUERADE rule into it — confirmed
by inspecting the live firewall-start script on the deployed host.
Add the rule explicitly via firewall.extraCommands targeting nixos-nat-post,
scoped to LAN source traffic (vars.lanCidr) going out tailscale0.
extraStopCommands removes it on firewall stop.

Without SNAT on tailscale0, Tailscale drops forwarded packets from LAN
source IPs (192.168.2.x) because they are not recognised Tailscale
addresses. With networking.nat.externalInterface = "tailscale0", all
traffic leaving through the Tailscale tunnel is masqueraded to the
router's own Tailscale IP (100.x.x.x), making it indistinguishable from
locally-originated traffic. Conntrack handles the return path.

Adds a oneshot systemd service that sets ethtool rx-udp-gro-forwarding on
and rx-gro-list off on the default-route interface at boot, silencing
Tailscale's warning about suboptimal UDP GRO forwarding on subnet routers.
Interface is discovered dynamically via `ip route get` so it works on all
platforms regardless of NIC naming.

--pre-format-files placed the key on the QEMU builder VM's rootfs, not the
target disk. nixos-install chroots into the target and runs sshd-keygen, which
found no key in the chroot and generated a fresh (unregistered) one. sops then
could not decrypt on first boot because the key didn't match .sops.yaml, leaving
both root and nixos with '!' in /etc/shadow even after mutableUsers = false was
set (hashedPasswordFile pointed to paths sops never wrote).
Fix modules/platforms/proxmox.nix to embed the clan SSH host key in
environment.etc via NIXOS_HOST_KEYS_DIR at eval time -- the same pattern
lxc.nix uses. nixos-install's own activation places the key on the target disk,
sshd-keygen finds it already present and skips generation, and sops decrypts
correctly on first boot. Includes the same preserveSshHostKey/restoreSshHostKey
activation scripts as lxc.nix so subsequent nixos-rebuild switch calls (without
NIXOS_HOST_KEYS_DIR) don't remove the key as "obsolete" from environment.etc.
Update create-proxmox-resource.sh: switch VM builds from
./result-<target> --pre-format-files ... --build-memory 2048
to
NIXOS_HOST_KEYS_DIR=$(pwd)/host-keys nix build --impure ... diskoImagesScript
./result-<target> --build-memory 2048
matching the LXC build path.

When a proxmox-* disk image is built, activation runs during the image
build without a valid sops age key (the SSH host key doesn't exist yet),
so root and nixos land in /etc/shadow with locked '!' entries. With the
default mutableUsers = true, update-users-groups.pl preserves existing
shadow entries for accounts that already exist, so hashedPasswordFile is
silently ignored on every subsequent boot — passwords are never fixed.
Setting mutableUsers = false forces update-users-groups.pl to apply
hashedPasswordFile unconditionally on every activation. On first real
boot the sops-decrypted hash is now written regardless of whether the
account already existed in shadow from the image build.

nixos-lxc-sops-reinstall.service called switch-to-configuration test at
sysinit.target time (DefaultDependencies=false), before D-Bus was up.
D-Bus is required to restart systemd targets after activation scripts
run. The service reported failure on every boot (exit 1: "Failed to open
dbus connection") even though secrets were correctly installed, because
the D-Bus call happens after activation scripts complete.
Move the service to network.target so basic.target (which includes
dbus-broker.service) runs first. Also drop DefaultDependencies=false so
systemd auto-adds After=basic.target. Add SuccessExitStatus=11 to handle
the edge case where switch-to-configuration holds the lock during a
concurrent rebuild (exit 11 = "Could not acquire lock" -- the rebuild's
own activation already installed the secrets, so treating it as success
is correct).

Two bugs prevented nixos-rebuild switch from working on lxc-* hosts after
first boot, both confirmed live on a deployed lxc-tor-relay container:
1. Ordering bug: preserveSshHostKey had no explicit deps, so the topological
sort placed it at position 7 — after etc at position 5. By the time it
tried to save the SSH key, etc had already removed it as "obsolete"
(absent from the current generation's environment.etc when built without
NIXOS_HOST_KEYS_DIR). Consolidate all four system.activationScripts entries
into one block and add etc = { deps = ["preserveSshHostKey"]; } and
setupSecrets = { deps = ["restoreSshHostKey"]; } to enforce the correct
save→etc→restore→sops chain.
2. No boot-time secrets: /run/secrets is a tmpfs cleared on every reboot, and
sops-nix does NOT generate a boot-time service in this configuration
(confirmed live: no sops-nix.service in systemctl list-unit-files).
Add nixos-lxc-sops-reinstall.service, modelled after sops-nix's own service
placement (wantedBy/before sysinit.target, DefaultDependencies=false), so
secrets are reinstalled before basic.target on every non-first boot.
ConditionPathExists skips it on first boot; nixos-lxc-first-boot-activate
handles that case.

Replaces the gitignored host-keys/ directory with clan vars as the
authoritative storage for SSH host keys. Keys are now generated as
sops-binary-encrypted clan var files (admin-key only) and checked into
vars/per-machine/<target>/openssh/, eliminating the plaintext private
key that previously had to live outside the repo.
Changes:
- modules/clan/ssh-host-key.nix: clan vars generator for the ed25519
SSH host key pair (neededFor="activation" — not mapped to sops.secrets,
delivered via tarball baking for LXC or --pre-format-files for VMs)
- flake.nix: add clanCore module + required settings to every mkTarget;
deduplicate bundled disko/sops-nix via follows; all 27 hosts eval clean
- flake.lock: updated to reflect the new follows constraints
- scripts/lib/clan-vars.sh: new helper library with
clan_ssh_key_exists / clan_ssh_pubkey_path / clan_decrypt_ssh_key /
clan_generate_ssh_key for use by the provisioning and sync scripts
- scripts/secrets/sync-host-keys.sh: queue_host_sync() now checks clan
vars first; generates via clan_generate_ssh_key if no key exists;
derives age fingerprint from clan pub key for .sops.yaml registration
- scripts/proxmox/create-proxmox-resource.sh: key management simplified
(sync-host-keys.sh now generates the key if missing, so the inline
prepare-host-key.sh call is gone); sync_remote_host_keys() decrypts
the clan key into a temp dir and scps just the two files to the node
when a clan key exists, falling back to the old host-keys/ scp for
any remaining legacy entries

systemd-resolved only uses LLMNR for single-label hostnames, never DNS —
same issue mount-data.nix already documented and fixed for NFS by switching

The host was always intended as a LAN subnet router (--advertise-routes),
not a full exit node (--advertise-exit-node). Rename every trace of
"exit-node" to "subnet-router" and remove the --advertise-exit-node flag
from extraSetFlags; the operator supplies --advertise-routes at first
tailscale up and Tailscale persists it in state across reboots.
Routing sysctls (useRoutingFeatures = "server"), openFirewall, and
trustedInterfaces = ["tailscale0"] are still required for subnet routing
to work, so the module is kept — just correctly named.

NixOS's etc activation removes files that were in a previous generation's
environment.etc but absent from the current one -- even real copies, not
only symlinks. LXC tarballs bake the host key into environment.etc (via
NIXOS_HOST_KEYS_DIR), but every subsequent nixos-rebuild switch lacks that
env var, so the key is removed as "obsolete". sops-nix derives its age
decryption key from /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key, so deletion cascades
into "Error getting data key: 0 successful groups required, got 0" for
every sops secret on the host.
Fix: two activation scripts bracket the etc step.
preserveSshHostKey (no deps, runs before etc): copies the live key to
/run (tmpfs) before etc can delete it.
restoreSshHostKey (deps=[etc], runs after etc): reinstalls via `install`
if etc removed the key. The resulting file is not tracked in either
generation's environment.etc, so subsequent rebuilds leave it alone.
scripts/recover-hosts.sh: restore both private and public key files (not
just the private key), use install(1) for atomic mode setting, and add a
post-rebuild sops-nix verification step to confirm success.

A fresh proxmox-server deploy has a blank scsi1 disk, so
zfs-import-tank.service spun 60 s then failed with no pool found.
Add zfs-init-tank.service that runs before the import: exits immediately
if the pool already exists, imports it if it exists but isn't imported
yet, or creates it on /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-*drive-scsi1 (Proxmox's
virtio-scsi naming for the second disk) with all required NFS datasets

The systemd-based initrd (default here, since this host has a ZFS
root) locks the root account by default, so sulogin refuses a shell
if something in the initrd fails and it drops to emergency mode --
confirmed live: it just loops re-entering the target instead of
prompting, making an initrd-level ZFS import failure impossible to
diagnose from the console. Only affects the pre-switch-root initrd
shell, not the installed system's own login.
Two real bugs, both hit live:
1. Shebang: #!/run/current-system/sw/bin/bash only resolves on an
already-activated NixOS system -- running the checked-out script
directly (e.g. from a stock ISO, cloned repo) failed with "cannot
execute: required file not found" on a non-NixOS box. Switched to
#!/usr/bin/env bash, which resolves identically on NixOS
(environment.usrbinenv's own default) and any normal Linux distro.
Also fixed the file's missing executable bit.
2. FLAKE_BASE_URL: previously depended on pkgs.replaceVars substituting
a Nix-templated @lanDomain@ placeholder at build time -- meaning it
only ever worked when baked into the built installer image, not when
run straight from a checkout (the literal, unexpanded "@lanDomain@"
string reached git as a bogus hostname). Replaced with LAN_DOMAIN in
scripts/env.sh (manually kept in sync with variables.nix's lanDomain,
same pattern as NIX_CACHE_HOST/nixCacheHost already), sourced by the
script itself like every other script in scripts/. Dropped
pkgs.replaceVars from modules/installer/common.nix entirely --
scripts/env.sh is now baked into the image alongside auto-install.sh
at a matching relative path (/etc/nixos-installer/env.sh next to
/etc/nixos-installer/installer/auto-install.sh) so the script's own
relative `source` line resolves the same way in both contexts.
loginShellInit's invocation path and docs/auto-installer.md updated to
match. Verified: shellcheck clean on both scripts, the baked files are
byte-identical to their checked-in sources (no templating left to
verify), and codex-maintenance.sh (secret grep, fmt, statix, full eval
of every host/package including the installer/pxe artifacts) passes
clean.
Moves the auto-installer's shell script from an inline Nix string in
modules/installer/common.nix to scripts/installer/auto-install.sh, a
real, version-controlled, directly-editable/shellcheck-able file.
common.nix now wires it in with pkgs.replaceVars, substituting the one
value that actually needs to come from variables.nix (lanDomain) --
every other `${...}` in the script is a literal bash reference, left
untouched. replaceVars fails the build if any @name@-shaped placeholder
is left unsubstituted, so a typo'd or renamed variable is caught at
eval time rather than silently shipping broken.
Verified: built the substituted derivation and diffed it against the
source template -- identical except for the one substituted line, no
leftover unsubstituted placeholders. Full codex-maintenance.sh (secret
grep, fmt, statix, full eval of every host/package including the
installer/pxe artifacts that consume this) passes clean.
Wires everything staged so far into a real flake target:
- modules/platforms/baremetal.nix (new): the bare-metal platform module,
composed from a real nixos-generate-config run on the actual gui-host
hardware (AMD CPU, ahci/xhci/usb storage -- modules/hardware-configuration/baremetal.nix).
Enables hardware.enableRedistributableFirmware (real wifi/GPU/microcode
firmware VMs never needed), amdgpu as the Xorg video driver plus
hardware.graphics for Mesa OpenGL/Vulkan, and imports the ZFS RAID0 disko
layout + modules/services/zfs/enable-service.nix for root-on-ZFS boot
support.
- flake.nix: new baremetal-gui target, reusing hosts/nixos/host.nix (same
identity already shared across linode/proxmox/lxc-gui).
- hosts/nixos/host.nix: added networking.hostId, required now that a ZFS
root pool is in the picture.
- variables.nix: guiRootDisk1/guiRootDisk2 filled in (/dev/sda, /dev/sdb --
only used transiently at disko-format time, same as modules/disko/proxmox.nix's
own plain device path). wifiPassword removed.
- modules/networking/wifi.nix: reworked to pull the wifi password from a
new sops secret (secrets/gui.yaml, wifi-password) instead of a plaintext
variable -- NetworkManager's ensureProfiles renders `psk = "$WIFI_PASSWORD"`
literally (nixpkgs' own documented pattern for this) and envsubst-expands
it from a sops-rendered EnvironmentFile at activation, so the real value
never touches the Nix store, only /run.
- .sops.yaml: new secrets/gui\.yaml rule, admin + the currently-registered
lxc-gui recipient (the only gui variant with a provisioned host key so
far -- whichever variant is actually deployed next still needs
scripts/secrets/sync-host-keys.sh run for its own recipient).
- README.md/CLAUDE.md: documented the new platform/target and its module
layout, per this repo's own drift-prevention note.
Verified end-to-end: nix eval of every existing target (nothing broke),
a temporary real nixosSystem build against the actual disko.nixosModules.disko
confirming the generated zpool create has no mirror/raidz keyword (genuine
stripe), and a temporary test SSID confirming the sops secret/template/
ensureProfiles chain renders correctly before reverting to blank/real values.
Full scripts/codex-maintenance.sh (secret-grep, fmt, statix, full-fallback
eval of every host/package) passes clean.
Adds modules/disko/baremetal.nix: two disks, each its own top-level
zpool vdev with no mirror/raidz between them (disko's zpool `mode`
defaults to "" for a plain stripe), ESP + systemd-boot on disk1. Device
paths are placeholders in variables.nix (guiRootDisk1/guiRootDisk2)
until the real hardware profile arrives.
Verified structurally by building a throwaway nixosSystem with the
actual disko.nixosModules.disko and reading the generated
system.build.formatScript: it emits `zpool create rpool ... disk1
disk2` with no mirror/raidz keyword, confirming a genuine stripe.
Not yet wired into any flake target -- that happens once the hardware
config lands and a new bare-metal platform module is added, per the
agreed sequencing.
Adds modules/networking/wifi.nix using NetworkManager's ensureProfiles
mechanism so the gui host associates to a known SSID on first boot with
no manual nmtui step. Credentials are placeholders in variables.nix
(wifiSsid/wifiPassword, both empty) to be filled in once the bare-metal
hardware profile is wired up — the module is a no-op until then.
The iPXE menu's "nixos" entry actually chain-loads this flake's own
custom auto-installer image, not a stock NixOS image — rename it to
"auto-installer" (label "NixOS Auto-Installer") so the menu says what it
boots, and set networking.hostName on netbootSystem to match, so the
generated system name (nixos-system-auto-installer-*) and staged
directory (/srv/pxe/http/auto-installer) agree with the menu entry too.
Add a second, genuinely vanilla NixOS minimal netboot image
(netbootMinimalSystem in flake.nix — nixpkgs' netboot-minimal.nix on its
own, none of modules/installer/common.nix's auto-installer wiring),
built from source the same way as the auto-installer image and exposed
as packages.x86_64-linux.pxe-minimal. Staged and menu-wired the same
way, as "nixos-minimal" (item, hostname, and directory all matching).
modules/pxe-boot/stage-installer-artifacts.nix is generalized to stage
both images via a shared rule-builder instead of one hardcoded set of
paths.
Verified: nix eval confirms both images' config.system.name matches
their menu entry/directory names, the pxe-boot host itself builds
clean with the new menu.ipxe, and the new pxe-minimal image was booted
directly under QEMU (kernel+initrd, no KVM) to a working login shell
with hostname nixos-minimal, no hang.
The kernel's NFS client filesystem doesn't set FS_USERNS_MOUNT, so mounting
NFS from inside any non-init user namespace -- exactly what an unprivileged
LXC container's UID-mapped root runs in -- is rejected at the VFS layer
with EPERM, regardless of Proxmox's mount=nfs;nfs4 container feature (which
only patches the AppArmor layer). Confirmed live on the redeployed lxc-docker
container: TCP to the NFS server's port 2049 succeeds, the server's export
table matches the container's IP, and mount.nfs: Operation not permitted
still fires immediately with no corresponding denial anywhere in the
server's own logs -- a kernel-level rejection that no amount of DNS/
automount/export tweaking (this branch's earlier commits) could ever fix.
modules/platforms/lxc.nix now keys proxmoxLXC.privileged off hostName
("docker" -> true) rather than a blanket false, since build-types/docker.nix
is also composed for linode-docker/proxmox-docker, which don't import
proxmox-lxc.nix at all -- setting this option there would break their eval.
create-proxmox-resource.sh reads the value back via a new
flake_target_lxc_privileged helper instead of hardcoding --unprivileged 1,
so the two stay in sync automatically for every lxc-* target.

The previous commit's networking.search fix was wrong. Confirmed live
on lxc-docker (vmid 105) after redeploying with it: `resolvectl query
server.sweet.home` started failing again, even though
`resolvectl query --interface=eth0 server.sweet.home` still resolved
correctly to the right IP via the LAN's real DNS server. The debug log
showed why -- adding a *global* search domain via networking.search
gave systemd-resolved a domain-matched but server-less "global" scope,
which it now prioritizes over eth0's correctly-configured scope for
every "*.sweet.home" query, silently sending them to public fallback
DNS (1.1.1.1 et al) instead, which of course returns NXDOMAIN for an
internal-only name. Bare single-label names (e.g. "server") were never
going to work either way -- systemd-resolved only ever tries LLMNR for
those, never DNS search-suffixing, regardless of configuration.
Reverts the networking.search addition and instead has
modules/docker/mount-data.nix build each NFS device string from
"${vars.nfsServerHost}.${vars.homeDomain}" (a plain FQDN, no dependency
on search-domain behavior at all) -- the same pattern
modules/raspi/mount-data.nix already uses for the Raspberry Pi's share
and for the identical reason.

Cross-host references throughout this repo (vars.nfsServerHost,
vars.nixCacheHost, vars.dockerHost) are bare short names, not FQDNs.
Resolving them has always depended on whatever network stack happens
to be in play picking up the DHCP-advertised domain as a search
suffix -- NetworkManager does this by default, which is why it went
unnoticed everywhere else, but LXC containers force-disable
NetworkManager and get their systemd-networkd config written directly
by Proxmox instead, which never sets one.
Confirmed live on lxc-docker (vmid 105) after today's earlier fix for
the automount/mount=nfs bugs: systemd-resolved had no search domain
for eth0, so "server" failed to resolve ("Name or service not known")
while "server.sweet.home" resolved fine via the same DNS server --
every NFS mount in modules/docker/mount-data.nix was still failing.
networking.search sets systemd-resolved's own Domains= globally
rather than depending on the per-link DHCP path, so it isn't at the
mercy of whichever component owns a given host's interface file.

variables.nix's nixCacheHostKey no longer matched nix-cache's actual SSH
host key (confirmed via ssh-keyscan against the live container), so every
declaratively-configured client's programs.ssh.knownHosts trusted the
wrong key -- distributed builds would fail host-key verification. Also,
modules/nix-cache/remote-builder-client.nix hardcoded sshKey to
/root/.ssh/nixremote, but the `server` host only has its own default
/root/.ssh/id_ed25519 installed (confirmed live via qm guest-agent) --
that file was never even present, so the build machine config pointed at
nothing. Standardize on each client's own default identity, matching the
per-host-key pattern vars.remoteBuilderAuthorizedKeys already uses instead
of a shared/differently-named keypair, and add
scripts/secrets/sync-nix-cache-host-key.sh (wired into
codex-maintenance.sh's --check) so the host-key drift doesn't silently
recur next time nix-cache is rebuilt or recreated.

scripts/ had grown to 10 top-level scripts covering three distinct
concerns (sops/age + SSH host-key management, Proxmox deployment, and
repo-wide bootstrap/CI) with no grouping. Move the key-management scripts
(backup-admin-key.sh, rotate-admin-key.sh, prepare-host-key.sh,
sync-host-keys.sh) into scripts/secrets/, and the Proxmox scripts
(create-proxmox-resource.sh, configure-nix-cache-client.sh) into
scripts/proxmox/; leave env.sh, codex-setup.sh, codex-maintenance.sh, and
bump-nixpkgs-release.sh at the top level (frequently hand-typed or pure
shared config) and scripts/lib/ as-is.
Updates every cross-reference: each moved script's repo_root computation
(now one directory deeper), shellcheck source= directives, inter-script
paths (create-proxmox-resource.sh's call into sync-host-keys.sh and its
remote bootstrap of configure-nix-cache-client.sh on the Proxmox node),
and every doc/module mention (CLAUDE.md's Scripts section reorganized to
match, README.md, docs/auto-installer.md, docs/proxmox-images.md,
modules/installer/common.nix, modules/platforms/lxc.nix). CI workflows
need no change -- they only invoke codex-maintenance.sh, which didn't
move. Verified via bash -n, shellcheck (no new warnings beyond the
pre-existing SC1091/SC2029/SC2095 baseline), and live dry-runs of
sync-host-keys.sh --all and create-proxmox-resource.sh --list from their
new paths.

New tor-relay build type (currently lxc-only) running a plain Tor
middle relay via modules/tor/enable-relay.nix, plus nyx for
interactive monitoring over the relay's control socket.

Two compounding bugs, confirmed live on the running lxc-docker
container (vmid 102 on pve.sweet.home):
1. x-systemd.automount never works inside any Linux container --
systemd logs "Starting of <unit>.automount unsupported" for every
share and never mounts them. modules/docker/mount-data.nix and
modules/raspi/mount-data.nix now key off config.boot.isContainer
(set true by nixpkgs' proxmox-lxc.nix) to mount eagerly with
`nofail` there instead, while VM-based docker targets keep automount
unchanged.
2. The container's Proxmox `features` never included `mount=nfs`, so
AppArmor blanket-denies the nfs/rpc_pipefs mount syscalls NFS
needs ("permission denied"). scripts/env.sh's
PROXMOX_DEFAULT_LXC_FEATURES now includes mount=nfs;nfs4 for future
lxc-* containers -- the semicolon required quoting the --features
value in create-proxmox-resource.sh's remote pct-create command,
since it's sent as a raw string for the remote shell to parse and an
unquoted `;` would be read as a command separator.
The already-running container needs a matching `pct set --features`
plus a restart to pick this up -- that's an operator step outside this
repo.
