# 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
## Commands Reference
```bash
# Set kubeconfig (REQUIRED)
export KUBECONFIG=~/.kube/orchard9-k3sf.yaml
# Deploy
kubectl apply -k deployments/k8s/base
# Check status
kubectl get pods -n rdev
# Interactive Claude session
kubectl exec -it -n rdev claudebox-0 -- claude
# Run Claude with prompt
kubectl exec -it -n rdev claudebox-0 -- claude "your prompt here"
# Shell access
kubectl exec -it -n rdev claudebox-0 -- bash
# View logs
kubectl logs -n rdev claudebox-0
# Restart pod
