Three ordering-related fixes to the Proxmox provisioning flow: 1. prepare-host-key.sh: make idempotent -- if the key already exists, print a note and exit 0 instead of erroring. The caller (create-proxmox-resource.sh) already guards standalone calls, but the script itself should be safe to run directly on a host that was already keyed. 2. create-proxmox-resource.sh: after sync-host-keys.sh updates .sops.yaml / secrets/, detect uncommitted changes and block with a prompt until the operator confirms they've committed and pushed. The PVE node's git pull only picks up committed+pushed state; without this gate, a new host's sops recipient is missing from the secrets files the image build uses, so the host can't decrypt secrets on first boot. 3. create-proxmox-resource.sh: add an explicit existence check for the host key in both the LXC and VM remote build heredocs, before it's passed as --pre-format-files / NIXOS_HOST_KEYS_DIR input. Gives a clear error pointing at sync-host-keys.sh instead of a raw `cp: cannot stat` from disko deep in the build. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Generates a new machine's SSH host key by an arbitrary name, before it
|
|
# necessarily has a flake target yet -- prints the .sops.yaml snippet to
|
|
# add by hand. For any host that already has a flake target,
|
|
# scripts/secrets/sync-host-keys.sh <target> does this same job plus the
|
|
# .sops.yaml/key_groups registration and re-encryption automatically; use
|
|
# this script only to pre-generate a key ahead of adding the flake target
|
|
# itself.
|
|
#
|
|
# Why a host key is needed at all: sops-nix derives each host's decryption key from
|
|
# its own /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key at *activation* time, but that
|
|
# activation runs before systemd would otherwise generate this key on
|
|
# first boot (sshd-keygen is a normal systemd service gated behind
|
|
# multi-user.target; activation scripts run earlier than that). Without
|
|
# pre-seeding, secrets — including the root/nixos login password — fail
|
|
# to decrypt on the machine's very first boot.
|
|
#
|
|
# This script only touches your admin workstation and this repo's
|
|
# .sops.yaml (it never contacts the target machine). Run it, follow the
|
|
# printed next steps, then use the resulting key with the auto-install.sh
|
|
# prompt (see modules/installer/common.nix) when you actually install the
|
|
# new machine.

=== 1. Add this line under keys: in ${sops_yaml} ===
|
|
- &${hostname} ${age_pub}
|
|
|
|
=== 2. Add *${hostname} to whichever creation_rules key_groups this host needs ===
|
|
(e.g. secrets/common.yaml always; add a per-host secrets/${hostname}.yaml
|
|
block too if this host will get its own secrets, same pattern as
|
|
nix-cache/server.)
|
|
|
|
=== 3. Re-encrypt every secrets file you just added it to ===
|
|
nix-shell -p sops --run 'sops updatekeys ${repo_root}/secrets/common.yaml'
|
|
|
|
=== 4. Commit + push this repo so the flake build picks up the new recipient ===
|
|
|
|
=== 5. Get the key onto the installer, one of two ways ===
|
|
a) Rebuild the installer image with all host-keys/ baked in (see
|
|
docs/auto-installer.md):
|
|
NIXOS_HOST_KEYS_DIR="${keydir}" nix build .#iso --impure
|
|
(or .#pxe — --impure is required since host-keys/ is gitignored and
|
|
flakes can't see it otherwise)
|
|
|
|
b) Or, for an image already built without keys, scp it in after boot:
|
|
scp ${keyfile}{,.pub} root@<target-ip>:/root/host-keys/
|
|
|
|
Then continue with /etc/auto-install.sh as normal — it checks
|
|
/etc/host-keys (baked in) before /root/host-keys (scp'd) and installs
|
|
whichever it finds before running nixos-install.
