On install, `/etc/devdesk/secret.env` is generated, `devdesk-tmux.service` and `devdesk.service` are enabled and started, and ttyd listens on `:7681`. Requests without the credential get a **401**.
- **Why the credential matters:** ttyd only checks the credential, so anything on the LAN that bypasses NPM is refused. If you rotate it, delete `secret.env`, run `dpkg-reconfigure devdesk`, update NPM, then `systemctl restart devdesk`.
## 3. Authelia (CT 167)
Add these to `access_control.rules` in `/etc/authelia/configuration.yml`, **above** any broader `*.lotusguild.org` rule:
```yaml
- domain: dev.lotusguild.org
policy: two_factor
subject: ['user:jared']
- domain: dev.lotusguild.org
policy: deny
```
Then run `authelia validate-config --config /etc/authelia/configuration.yml && systemctl restart authelia`.
- **Pi-hole:** add `"10.10.10.27 dev.lotusguild.org"` to `dns.hosts` in `pve-infra/containers/163-pihole/etc/pihole/pihole.toml`. A push auto-deploys it, and LAN clients then reach NPM directly instead of hairpinning.
A `v*` tag makes CI publish the package, then send a signed webhook (the house HMAC pattern) to CT 126's existing `webhook` listener on :9000. The listener runs `/usr/lib/devdesk/devdesk-deploy <ref>`, which waits for that version in the apt registry and upgrades only `devdesk` with `--force-confold`. Running Claude sessions are untouched. The log is `/var/log/devdesk-deploy.log`.
**Setup, done once:**
1. Generate a secret.
2. Add this hook to `/etc/webhook/hooks.json`, next to `126-config-deploy`. The file is local and untracked because it holds secrets.
The ttyd credential is the only thing between the LAN and a root shell, so only NPM may reach :7681. CT 126 ships this in pve-infra (`containers/126-codingenvironment/etc/nftables.conf`, installed by its `deploy.sh`):
```
table inet devdesk {
chain input {
type filter hook input priority filter - 10; policy accept;
tcp dport 7681 ip saddr { 127.0.0.1, 10.10.10.27 } accept
tcp dport 7681 ip6 saddr ::1 accept
tcp dport 7681 counter reject with tcp reset
}
}
```
Check from another LAN host: `curl -m3 http://10.10.10.58:7681/` must fail with "connection refused". To rotate the credential: `rm /etc/devdesk/secret.env && dpkg-reconfigure devdesk`, put the new `Authorization` value in NPM proxy host 58's Advanced tab, then `systemctl restart devdesk`.
## 7. Matrix "Claude needs you" (optional)
1. Deploy a hookshot transform named `Devdesk` (`hookshot/devdesk.js` in the matrix repo; pushing it to `main` auto-deploys it on LXC 151). Look up the hook UUID as described in that repo's README.
