feat(NET-WP-0018-T05): complete smooth bootstrap guide

- Created docs/smooth-bootstrap-guide.md as the single consolidated operator guide per T05 spec + T03 recs:
  - Full sequence (prereqs, creds/king, privacyIDEA, LLDAP/user + MFA, KeyCape, OpenBao, lifecycle via 0019, reopen, handoff)
  - Per-step evidence requirements + links to validate-*, 0019 dry-run, console subcmds/make
  - Blocked conditions, next safe action, effective preview, actor classes
  - References T02 runtime arch, T03 retrospective/matrix, console lifecycle-guide (incl. 0019), UX contracts, evidence templates
  - Pragmatic note + update pointers for console guide
- Updated workplan T05 to done + completion note
- Pragmatic: progress (task_id), file notes, this commit
- Brief/fix next (expect 4/9 done: T02-T03 + T05; T04 medium can follow or parallel)

T05 complete. T06 (align control surface) next logical (uses this guide + T02/T03).

# NET-WP-0018 Smooth Bootstrap Guide
**Status:** draft (initial consolidation for T05)
**Date:** 2026-06-03
**Purpose:** The single operator guide for a smooth, repeatable NetKingdom security bootstrap. An operator knows what to do, in what order, and what (non-secret) evidence proves each step complete. Covers the full sequence from the T05 spec + inputs from T02 runtime architecture, T03 retrospective + gap matrix, existing UX contracts (operator-journey, user-lifecycle), console lifecycle-guide (incl. 0019 T06-adjacent polish), evidence templates/validators, and make targets.
This replaces piecemeal reliance on separate docs. It makes wrong-order execution visibly hard via "next safe action" and blocked gates. Links to concrete commands, scripts, console subcommands, validate targets, and evidence.
See also:
- docs/NetkingdomRuntimeArchitecture.md (T02 what exists)
- docs/security-bootstrap-retrospective.md (T03 what was bumpy, now automated, gaps)
- tools/security-bootstrap-console/security_bootstrap_console.py + make security-bootstrap-* (control surface, evidence, validators)
- sso-mfa/k8s/lldap/dry-run-nonroot-user.sh + related (0019 polish)
- .local/security-bootstrap.json + console status (current gates)
**Pragmatic note (per 0018 Coordination):** Track your progress through this guide using State Hub /progress/ (with workstream/task), dated notes in NET-WP-0018 workplan, git, console evidence/validators, /tmp evidence. This feeds future retrospectives.
## Overall Model and Principles
From platform architecture and UX contracts:
- **Stages:** S1 Low-trust assembly → ... → S6 Reopen under custody (see console status).
- **Shell / First screen always answers:** Current stage, Next safe action, Blocked gates (why), Evidence (non-secret records).
- **UI posture (console/web):** Calm field notebook; black/white + hi accents; panels; sentence case; no hype. Shows effective access before any save/action. Blocked conditions explicit (e.g., no platform-root for non-king, MFA required for privileged).
- **Evidence discipline:** All steps produce/require non-secret evidence.json or metadata flags matching exact templates/validators (no secret markers). 12+ bools for user lifecycle (effective preview, no root grant, actor checks, verified identity/claims, reversible, no secrets recorded, etc.).
- **Actor classes & previews:** Always distinguish (setup operator, platform admin, tenant admin, reviewer, king). Show effective privileges before create/save. Never grant platform-root except via explicit king path.
- **Secret boundary:** Console/UI never collects/stores secrets. Use password-safe, k8s secrets, or operator memory. Prefer k8s fallback for dry-runs (see 0019).
- **Reversible where possible; human custody gates explicit.**
- **Handoff to production readiness:** After S6, move to 0017 production items (audit durability, etc. not duplicated here).
**Sequence overview (high-level; details per section):**
1. Prerequisites & cluster foundation.
2. Credential bundle / king kit (SOPS/age, custody).
3. PrivacyIDEA bootstrap + realm.
4. LLDAP/bootstrap user (platform-root/king) + MFA self-enroll + verify.
5. KeyCape deployment + client registration + OIDC.
6. OpenBao init/unseal/config (OIDC admin binding via KeyCape).
7. Token cleanup, root disposition, restore drill, escrow/custody.
8. User lifecycle (onboard/lock/offboard/review use 0019 dry-run for tests).
9. State Hub sync, audit posture, cleanup/rotation.
10. Platform reopen (S6) + handoff.
Each step has: commands/scripts, evidence required, blocked conditions, links to validators/console.
## Step 1: Prerequisites, Cluster Foundation, Credential Bundle
**Prerequisites:**
- Live Railiance/k3s cluster with ingress, cert-manager, NetworkPolicies, operators as per T02.
- Operator access: kubectl to sso/openbao ns; password safe entries (net-kingdom/LLDAP/admin, etc.); age keys/custodian public.
- No live OpenBao init in console (attended only).
**Credential bundle / king kit:**
- Use `make security-bootstrap-king-kit` or console `king-kit`.
- Dedicated king credential (platform-root@lldap, separate from personal).
- MFA: privacyIDEA self-service TOTP.
- Storage: password-safe + offline packet (age encrypted).
- Evidence: custodian_age_*_confirmed, king_credential_ready, mfa_enrolled_confirmed, password_safe_confirmed, storage_classes, custody_packet_prepared.
- Validate: `make security-bootstrap-validate-kit` or console `validate-king-kit`.
- Custody roster (for 2of3 target): `make security-bootstrap-custody-roster-template`, sign, validate.
**Blocked if:** No king kit or custody approval.
**Next safe after:** Approve custody mode (console `approve-custody-mode` or make with ARGS for flags like --mfa-enrolled-confirmed).
## Step 2: PrivacyIDEA Bootstrap + Realm
- Deploy/repair realm, LLDAP resolver, self-service policies.
- Use repair script (sso-mfa/k8s/privacyidea/repair-realm-live.sh) or console runbook "privacyIDEA realm repair".
- Enroll platform-root TOTP in repaired realm (pi-admin for setup).
- Evidence: related to t02 validate (realm healthy).
- Validate: `make security-bootstrap-validate-t02` (covers audit/recovery gates incl. this).
**Blocked if:** Realm not correct for LLDAP users (MFA/self-enroll fails).
See T03 retrospective for past realm drift bumps (now partially automated via runbook + validate).
## Step 3: LLDAP / Bootstrap User Creation (platform-root / king)
- Create platform-root user in LLDAP (via create-user.sh or LLDAP admin UI at lldap.coulomb.social).
- Command example (with KUBECTL fallback): `cd sso-mfa/k8s/lldap && ./create-user.sh platform-root ...` (no --admin for non-root tests; use --admin only for platform admins via king path).
- Self-enroll TOTP in privacyIDEA.
- Verify MFA state: `cd ../privacyidea && ./check-user-mfa-state.sh platform-root`.
- Verify OIDC/KeyCape path: `cd ../keycape && ./verify-openbao-client.sh`.
- Groups: net-kingdom-admins for platform-root.
- Evidence: identity_account_created, identity_group_confirmed, mfa_*, oidc_login_verified.
- For non-root tests: use 0019 dry-run (see Step 8).
**Blocked if:** Actor requests net-kingdom-admins without king path; no MFA for privileged.
**Console:** `lifecycle-guide` for full flow; `onboarding-dry-run*` for tests.
## Step 4: KeyCape Deployment + Client Registration + OIDC
- KeyCape as lightweight IAM (conforms to IAM Profile v0.2).
- Deploy client config (sso-mfa/k8s/keycape/create-secrets.sh).
- Apply keycape-config Secret, restart KeyCape.
- Register bootstrap clients (netkingdom-bootstrap-console, openbao-admin).
- Redirects: localhost:8250/oidc/callback etc.
- Verify OIDC admin login: platform-root obtains OpenBao platform-admin via KeyCape/MFA.
- Evidence: keycape client gates, openbao_oidc_* , oidc_login_verified.
- Validate related in t02 / console.
**Issuer:** https://kc.coulomb.social (see T02 for claims: tenant, groups, roles, assurance, etc.).
See T03 for past callback/registration bumps (now gated).
## Step 5: OpenBao Init / Unseal / Config + OIDC Admin Binding
**Attended only (console refuses live init):**
- Preflight: `make security-bootstrap-openbao-preflight --run` or console.
- Init ceremony (human-attended): produce init output, unseal shares, root token.
- Post-unseal: apply initial config (auth, mounts, policies, audit).
- OIDC auth config against KeyCape (maps claims/groups to policies e.g. net-kingdom-admins → platform-admin).
- Key material handling: trial exposure taint, rotate unseal keys, emergency lockdown, restore drill (snapshot, isolate, verify, destroy).
- Root token disposition: revoked (evidence: root_token_disposition).
- Evidence: openbao_initialized, initial_config_applied, trial_exposed + response_complete, keys_rotated, post_unseal_verified, openbao_oidc_*, restore_drill_passed, etc.
- Validate: multiple t02-related + console gates (taint logic in runbooks).
**Blocked if:** Not unsealed, no OIDC binding, no restore drill, trial material not responded to.
**Console runbooks:** Key material compromised, generate new unseal, emergency lock-down, restore drill, token revocation.
See T02 for secret/credential path details; T03 for past claim shape / token issues (now partially automated via gates/runbooks).
## Step 6: Token Cleanup, State Hub Sync, Audit Posture, Cleanup/Rotation
- Revoke short-lived/bootstrap tokens (use console revoke helpers or runbooks; no plaintext on CLI).
- State Hub: sync work (POST /progress/, decisions, etc.); ensure .custodian-brief reflects.
- Audit posture: record audit_core_bootstrap_risk_accepted (or production_sink_ready), owner, review_date (2026-07-02), note. Use console approve or metadata update. Validate: console audit_core_posture.
- Cleanup/rotation: review bootstrap-era creds/databases/paths; rotate as needed. Evidence: cleanup_complete.
- Custody packet / roster final.
**Evidence:** root_token_disposition, audit_core_*, cleanup_complete, etc.
**Console:** `cleanup-evidence-template`, `validate-cleanup`, metadata updates.
See T03 for operator-state / token bumps (now in metadata + validators).
## Step 7: User Lifecycle (Onboard / Lock / Offboard / Review) Use 0019 Polish
This implements the first practical flow per docs/security-bootstrap-user-lifecycle.md (UX contract) + T02/ T03.
**Always:**
- Preview effective access (actor_class, scope, groups, MFA, OpenBao policy, no root for non-king).
- Record non-secret evidence/audit (State Hub /progress/, console evidence, k8s audit).
- MFA required for privileged.
- Reversible where possible.
**Detailed (from console lifecycle-guide + 0019):**
- Onboard scoped non-root: use `make security-bootstrap-onboarding-dry-run SUBJECT=... EMAIL=... DISPLAY="..."` (or direct ./dry-run-nonroot-user.sh). Internally: safe secret (k8s/env /tmp), create --test (no --admin), verify MFA/KeyCape, optional lock/offboard GraphQL, populate/validate evidence (lldap_identity_verified, keycape_oidc_claims_verified, effective_access_summary, lock_offboard_result, actor_class="user", groups=["net-kingdom-users"], no_secret_material_recorded, prevents_platform_root_grant, etc.).
- Console: `onboarding-dry-run`, `onboarding-dry-run-claims` (infers claims from groups + T01 role; warns on admins/root), `lifecycle-cleanup-dryrun-users --pattern t06-*`.
- Lock: remove from groups (GraphQL or LLDAP UI); reversible.
- Offboard: delete user after resource transfer + reason/date; evidence.
- Review: check-user-mfa-state, LLDAP groups, owned principals; rotate via creds tools.
- Fabric/tenant admin: same but scoped groups, no platform-root, explicit preview "will NOT be in net-kingdom-admins".
- For platform-root/king: king path only.
**Evidence templates:** `make security-bootstrap-onboarding-dry-run-template`, `lifecycle-flow-template`.
**Validate:** `make security-bootstrap-validate-onboarding-dry-run`, `validate-lifecycle-flow`.
**Runbook:** "User lifecycle dry-run (T06)" in console runbooks (refs 0019 + script).
**Blocked if:** Missing actor/scope, privileged without MFA, ordinary user gets root groups/policy.
See 0019 workplan + dry-run script + T03 matrix for past taint/hygiene bumps (now largely automated via /tmp + evidence).
Update console lifecycle_guide T06 section if it still shows old manual secret steps (prefer orchestrator).
## Step 8: Platform Reopen + Handoff
- Final gates: all prior evidence + platform_reopened flag.
- Approve custody if needed.
- Console: status shows S6; "Review related workplans".
- Handoff: produce handover checklist (console `handover-checklist`); transfer to production readiness (audit durability, escrow, etc. per 0017 not duplicated here).
- Evidence: platform_reopened, review_date, notes.
**Validate:** related custody/kit + full status.
## Step 9: Post-Reopen / Optimization
- Use T03 retrospective + T02 arch + this guide for future drills.
- Address gaps (UE adapters per assessment, full Audit Core correlation, more T08 validators).
- Rehearse rebuild per T09 (scripted/namespace first; use 0019 dry-run as model).
## Evidence Summary Table (Core Non-Secret)
- King/custody: age keys, roster, packet, approval.
- Identity/MFA: account/group created, mfa_enrolled, oidc_verified.
- OpenBao: initialized, config_applied, oidc_bound, root_disposition, restore_drill, keys_rotated, taint/response.
- Lifecycle (0019): dry_run_date, actor_class, groups, effective_access_summary, lock_offboard_result, *_verified, no_secret_material_recorded, prevents_*, shows_effective_before_save.
- General: cleanup_complete, platform_reopened, audit_core_* (risk accepted or sink ready), metadata_updated_at.
All validated via console `validate-*` or make targets. Templates in console.
## References and Updates
- Full list in T02/T03 docs.
- Console `lifecycle-guide`, `status`, `web-ui`.
- Update this guide + console guide section as T06/T08 work proceeds (e.g., more validators, control surface alignment).
- For web-ui exposure of this guide: see T06.
This guide + the runtime architecture + retrospective turn the first bootstrap into a repeatable, auditable (pragmatically), low-diagnosis path. Use it; record evidence; improve via T07+.
**Next after this guide:** Align control surface (T06), add tests (T07), integrate validations (T08), assess rebuild risk (T09).
See NET-WP-0018 workplan for full acceptance.
