+## rdev: K3s Implementation Notes
+
+This section documents our actual implementation running on k3s instead of a standalone VM.
+
+### Architecture Difference
+
+The reference guide above describes a VM-based deployment with Docker Compose. Our implementation uses:
+
+- **Kubernetes (k3s)** instead of Docker Compose
+- **StatefulSets** instead of standalone containers
+- **Longhorn PVCs** instead of host volume mounts
+- **GitHub Container Registry** instead of local images
+
+```
+k3s cluster (orchard9-k3sf)
+└── rdev namespace
+    ├── claudebox-0 (StatefulSet pod)
+    │   ├── Claude Code CLI
+    │   ├── /workspace (PVC: 20Gi)
+    │   └── /root/.claude (PVC: 1Gi)
+    └── Future: discord-bot, claudebox-pantheon, claudebox-aeries
+```
+
+### Key Commands
+
+```bash
+# REQUIRED: Set kubeconfig before any kubectl command
+export KUBECONFIG=~/.kube/orchard9-k3sf.yaml
+
+# Interactive Claude session (triggers OAuth if not authenticated)
+kubectl exec -it -n rdev claudebox-0 -- claude
+
+# Run Claude with a prompt
+kubectl exec -it -n rdev claudebox-0 -- claude "your prompt here"
+
+# Shell access
+kubectl exec -it -n rdev claudebox-0 -- bash
+
+# Check status
+kubectl get pods -n rdev
+
+# View logs
+kubectl logs -n rdev claudebox-0
+```
+
+### Authentication
+
+Claude authenticates via OAuth on first run. Auth persists in the `/root/.claude` PVC:
+
+```bash
+kubectl exec -it -n rdev claudebox-0 -- claude
+# Follow the URL to authenticate
+# Auth persists across pod restarts
+```
+
+### Image
+
+```
+ghcr.io/orchard9/rdev-claudebox:v0.1.0
+```
+
+Built for `linux/amd64` (k3s node architecture).
+
+### Differences from Reference Guide
+
+| Reference Guide | rdev Implementation |
+|-----------------|---------------------|
+| VM with Docker Compose | k3s with Kustomize |
+| `docker exec` | `kubectl exec` |
+| Host volume mounts | Longhorn PVCs |
+| `~/.claude/.credentials.json` | PVC at `/root/.claude` |
+| claudebox binary | Custom Dockerfile |
+| Deno Discord bot | TBD (v0.4+) |

+# rdev v0.1.0 - Base Case
+
+**Date**: 2026-01-24
+**Status**: Deployed and verified
+
+## Summary
+
+First deployment of rdev - a single claudebox pod running on k3s with Claude Code CLI.
+
+## What Was Built
+
+### Container Image
+- **Image**: `ghcr.io/orchard9/rdev-claudebox:v0.1.0`
+- **Base**: Ubuntu 22.04
+- **Platform**: linux/amd64 (k3s nodes are amd64, built from arm64 Mac)
+- **Contents**:
+  - Node.js 20 (required for Claude Code CLI)
+  - Claude Code CLI v2.1.19
+  - Git, vim, build-essential
+  - Healthcheck script
+
+### Kubernetes Resources
+- **Namespace**: `rdev`
+- **StatefulSet**: `claudebox` (1 replica)
+- **PVCs**:
+  - `claudebox-workspace` (20Gi) - for project files
+  - `claudebox-claude-config` (1Gi) - for Claude auth persistence
+- **Service**: `claudebox` (headless)
+- **Secret**: `ghcr-secret` (copied from apps namespace)
+
+### Resource Limits
+```yaml
+requests:
+  cpu: "500m"
+  memory: "1Gi"
+limits:
+  cpu: "2"
+  memory: "4Gi"
+```
+
+## Key Decisions
+
+### 1. GitHub Container Registry over GCP Artifact Registry
+- This is an on-prem k3s cluster, not GKE
+- Already have ghcr-secret for other images
+- No gcloud dependency
+
+### 2. PVC for Claude Config instead of Secret
+- Claude credentials are too large for K8s secrets (>3MB limit)
+- Auth persists across pod restarts
+- User authenticates once via `kubectl exec`
+
+### 3. Platform-specific Build
+- k3s nodes are amd64
+- Mac builds arm64 by default
+- Added `--platform linux/amd64` to docker build
+
+## Authentication
+
+Claude Code authenticates via OAuth. To authenticate:
+
+```bash
+export KUBECONFIG=~/.kube/orchard9-k3sf.yaml
+kubectl exec -it -n rdev claudebox-0 -- claude
+```
+
+This opens interactive mode. First run triggers OAuth flow - follow the URL to authenticate. Auth persists in the PVC.
+
+## Verification
+
+```bash
+# Check pod status
+kubectl get pods -n rdev
+# NAME          READY   STATUS    RESTARTS   AGE
+# claudebox-0   1/1     Running   0          58s
+
+# Check Claude version
+kubectl exec -n rdev claudebox-0 -- claude --version
+# 2.1.19 (Claude Code)
+
+# Test Claude (after auth)
+kubectl exec -it -n rdev claudebox-0 -- claude "say hello"
+```

+
+## Issues Encountered
+
+### 1. Image Pull Failed - Wrong Platform
+- **Error**: `no match for platform in manifest: not found`
+- **Cause**: Built arm64 image on Mac, k3s nodes are amd64
+- **Fix**: Added `--platform linux/amd64` to docker build
+
+### 2. Credentials Secret Too Large
+- **Error**: `Request entity too large: limit is 3145728`
+- **Cause**: ~/.claude directory is ~30MB (history, debug logs, etc.)
+- **Fix**: Switched to PVC for claude config instead of mounting from secret
+
+### 3. GCP Artifact Registry Auth Failed
+- **Error**: `403 Forbidden` when pushing to us-central1-docker.pkg.dev
+- **Cause**: Wrong approach - this is k3s, not GKE
+- **Fix**: Switched to GitHub Container Registry (ghcr.io)
+
+## What's Next (v0.2)
+
+1. Mount real project workspaces (pantheon, aeries repos)
+2. Add SSH keys for git push/pull
+3. Multiple claudebox pods (one per project)
+4. Project-specific environment configurations
+
