# Ops Hub Bootstrap Runbook Date: 2026-06-14 ## Purpose This runbook gives the operator-ready bootstrap path for `ops-hub`, the VSM Operations / System 1 extension of Inter-Hub. Use this when an authenticated Inter-Hub admin session or deployment migration is available. The current public v2 API is not sufficient to create the hub, manifest, API consumer, API key, or seed widgets by itself. As of 2026-06-06, implementation work for `ops-hub` belongs in the dedicated repo at `/home/worsch/ops-hub` with remote `gitea-remote:coulomb/ops-hub.git`. This runbook remains a HelixForge bootstrap handoff reference until the implementation repo ports or supersedes it. ## Inputs - Manifest draft: `wiki/ops-hub-manifest.draft.json` - Widget seed: `wiki/ops-hub-widgets.seed.json` - Migration fallback: `wiki/ops-hub-bootstrap.sql` - Implementation repo: `/home/worsch/ops-hub` ## Current Bootstrap Decision Prefer the supported Inter-Hub bootstrap API once production exposes the current API surface. Do not proceed with manual DB seeding unless the operator explicitly chooses that fallback. Until the production API gate passes, the authenticated Inter-Hub admin UI and SQL migration remain fallback paths for attended operator use only. Production API gate: - `https://hub.coulomb.social/api/v2/hubs` returns `401` unauthenticated, not `404`. - OpenAPI lists `/hubs`, `/hub-capability-manifests`, `/api-consumers`, and `/policy-scopes`. - After the gate passes, run the supported bootstrap/smoke path from the relevant `inter-hub` or `ops-hub` tooling with `IHUB_BASE` and an operator key. Latest check, 2026-06-14: - `ops-hub/scripts/interhub-gate-probe.py` still reports the production gate closed. - `GET /api/v2/hubs` returns `404`. - Live OpenAPI still omits `/hubs`, `/hub-capability-manifests`, `/api-consumers`, and `/policy-scopes`. - Do not run the preferred API bootstrap path until the current Inter-Hub API is deployed, unless the operator explicitly chooses the SQL fallback. VSM classification is stored in the manifest capability description for now: - `hub_family`: `vsm` - `vsm_function`: `OPS` - `vsm_system`: `S1` Newer Inter-Hub schemas have first-class hub metadata columns for these values. The SQL fallback sets those columns when present and still carries the same classification in the manifest description for older deployments. As of the 2026-05-19 access check, the workstation kubeconfig only points at CoulombCore (`92.205.130.254`) and does not include the Railiance01 (`92.205.62.239`) cluster where `hub.coulomb.social` resolves. SSH key access to `root`, `worsch`, and `ubuntu` on Railiance01 was denied, so the SQL fallback must be run from a host/session that already has Railiance01 cluster access. ## UI Path 1. Log in to Inter-Hub at `https://hub.coulomb.social/NewSession`. 2. Open `/Hubs/new`. 3. Create the hub: - Name: `Ops Hub` - Slug: `ops-hub` - Domain: `ops.coulomb.social` - Kind: `domain` 4. Open `/HubCapabilityManifests/new?hubId=`. 5. Create a draft manifest with: - Version: `1.0` - Capability description from `wiki/ops-hub-manifest.draft.json` - Contact: operator/team contact 6. Edit the manifest and copy in: - `declaredWidgetTypes` - `declaredEventTypes` - `declaredAnnotationCategories` - `declaredPolicyScopes` 7. Activate the manifest. 8. Open `/ApiConsumers/new`. 9. Create an API consumer bound to the active ops manifest: - Name: `ops-hub` - Description: `API consumer for the VSM Operations hub` - Scopes for the key: `framework:read hub:ops-hub:read hub:ops-hub:write` 10. Generate an API key and store it only in the operator secret store or local environment. Do not commit it to Git. 11. Seed the widgets from `wiki/ops-hub-widgets.seed.json` through the UI or migration fallback. ## SQL Fallback Path From a shell with Railiance01 Kubernetes access, run: ```bash kubectl exec -i -n databases net-kingdom-pg-1 -- \ psql -U postgres -d interhub \ < /home/worsch/helix-forge/wiki/ops-hub-bootstrap.sql ``` If using the HostEurope kubeconfig from the workstation, first restore `~/.kube/config-hosteurope` as documented by `railiance-cluster`, then run: ```bash KUBECONFIG=~/.kube/config-hosteurope \ kubectl exec -i -n databases net-kingdom-pg-1 -- \ psql -U postgres -d interhub \ < /home/worsch/helix-forge/wiki/ops-hub-bootstrap.sql ``` The SQL fallback creates the hub, active manifest, registry entries, API consumer row, and seed widgets. It does not create the one-time visible static API key; generate that in the authenticated Inter-Hub UI and store it outside Git. ## Validation After manifest activation: ```bash curl -s https://hub.coulomb.social/api/v2/widget-types curl -s https://hub.coulomb.social/api/v2/event-types curl -s https://hub.coulomb.social/api/v2/annotation-categories ``` Expected: ops-owned vocabulary appears in the relevant registries. After API key creation: ```bash curl -s -X POST https://hub.coulomb.social/api/v2/token \ -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \ --data-urlencode "grant_type=client_credentials" \ --data-urlencode "client_id=" \ --data-urlencode "client_secret=" \ --data-urlencode "scope=framework:read hub:ops-hub:read hub:ops-hub:write" ``` Expected: a short-lived access token is returned. After widget seeding: ```bash curl -s https://hub.coulomb.social/api/v2/hub-registry ``` Expected: `ops-hub` is visible, and the operator can see the seeded widgets in the authenticated UI. ## Known Blockers - The live public v2 API has no `POST /api/v2/hubs`. - The live public v2 API has no `POST /api/v2/widgets`. - There are no v2 endpoints for manifest creation/activation. - There are no v2 endpoints for API consumer or key creation. - There is no `/api/v2/policy-scopes`. - Interaction event create currently does not persist submitted metadata. - Webhook dispatch currently uses the hard-coded `"clicked"` event type. These are tracked by HF-WP-0001 T10 for Inter-Hub hardening.
