### Summary
This PR refactors the playbook layout to reduce duplication and make host intent clearer (servers vs workstations), splits monitoring by host type, and restores full Zsh setup for developers while keeping servers aliases-only.
### Key changes
- **New playbooks**
- `playbooks/servers.yml`: baseline for server-class hosts (no desktop apps)
- `playbooks/workstations.yml`: baseline for dev/desktop/local + **desktop apps only on `desktop` group**
- **Monitoring split**
- `roles/monitoring_server`: server monitoring + intrusion prevention (includes `fail2ban`, sysstat)
- `roles/monitoring_desktop`: desktop-oriented monitoring tooling
- Updated playbooks to use the correct monitoring role per host type
- **Shell role: server-safe + developer-friendly**
- `roles/shell` now supports two modes:
- `shell_mode: minimal` (default): aliases-only, does not overwrite `.zshrc`
- `shell_mode: full`: installs Oh My Zsh + Powerlevel10k + plugins and deploys a managed `.zshrc`
- `playbooks/development.yml` and `playbooks/workstations.yml` use `shell_mode: full`
- `playbooks/servers.yml` remains **aliases-only**
- **Applications**
- Applications role runs only on `desktop` group (via `workstations.yml`)
- Removed Brave installs/repo management
- Added **CopyQ** to desktop apps (`applications_desktop_packages`)
- **Docs + architecture**
- Added canonical doc tree under `project-docs/` (overview/architecture/standards/workflow/decisions)
- Consolidated architecture docs: `docs/reference/architecture.md` is now a pointer to `project-docs/architecture.md`
- Fixed broken doc links by adding the missing referenced pages under `docs/`
### Behavior changes (important)
- Desktop GUI apps install **only** on the `desktop` inventory group (not on servers, not on dev VMs unless they are in `desktop`).
- Dev/workstation Zsh is now provisioned in **full mode** (managed `.zshrc` + p10k).
### How to test (local CI parity)
```bash
make test
npm test
```
Optional dry runs (interactive sudo may be required):
```bash
make check
make check-local
```
### Rollout guidance
- Apply to a single host first:
- Workstations: `make workstations HOST=<devhost>`
- Servers: `make servers HOST=<serverhost>`
- Then expand to group runs.

Ansible Infrastructure Management
Ansible automation for development machines, service hosts, and Proxmox-managed guests (LXC-first, with a path for KVM VMs).
Quick start
# Install Python deps + Ansible collections
make bootstrap
# Edit secrets (Proxmox credentials, SSH public key, etc.)
make edit-group-vault
# Validate the repo
make test-syntax
Proxmox app projects (LXC-first)
This repo can provision and configure dev/qa/prod guests per application project using the app_projects model.
- Configure projects:
inventories/production/group_vars/all/main.yml(app_projects) - Configure secrets:
inventories/production/group_vars/all/vault.yml(encrypted) - Run end-to-end:
make app PROJECT=projectA
Other useful entry points:
- Provision only:
make app-provision PROJECT=projectA - Configure only:
make app-configure PROJECT=projectA - Info / safety:
make proxmox-info [PROJECT=projectA] [ALL=true] [TYPE=lxc|qemu|all]
Safety notes:
- IP conflict precheck: provisioning fails if the target IP responds
(override with
-e allow_ip_conflicts=trueonly if you really mean it). - VMID/CTID collision guardrail: provisioning fails if the VMID exists but the guest name doesn't match
(override with
-e allow_vmid_collision=trueonly if you really mean it). - No destructive playbooks: this repo intentionally does not ship “destroy/decommission” automation.
