fix(crowdsec-edge-bouncer): cache the release outside /tmp

fix(ansible): site.yml runs without warnings or no-op changes

-# claude-workstation
-
-An always-on, **off-site** headless Claude Code host (Debian 12 VM under Synology
-VMM on nas-2). It runs (a) reattachable interactive `tmux` sessions and (b) an
-unattended notes-distill timer. It deliberately holds the **least** privilege
-that still does the job.
-
-## What lives here vs. what's manual
-
-This role configures everything **inside** the VM. Three things are **manual**
-(no IaC path) and precede/accompany it — see [`RUNBOOK.md`](RUNBOOK.md) for the
-full step-by-step:
-
-1. **VM creation** in Synology VMM (`ladmin` has no sudo; the DSM API is
-   root-only), with a cloud-init drive that installs the CI SSH key.
-2. **Netbird dashboard route** advertising the k8s API to the mesh, and the
-   **site-to-site return route** on the off-site gateway (backup path).
-3. **Secret material**: `claude setup-token` (subscription OAuth), the claude-bot
-   creds, and the read-only SA kubeconfig — encrypted into the group vault.
-
-## Credential isolation
-
-Two Unix users with separate credential stores so an unattended job cannot read
-the interactive session's secrets:
-
-| User | Holds | Runs |
-|------|-------|------|
-| `claude` | OAuth token, claude-bot creds, **read-only** SA kubeconfig | interactive tmux |
-| `claude-job` | its **own** OAuth token, claude-bot creds (no kubeconfig) | notes-distill timer |
-
-**No talosconfig, no SOPS age key** ever land here (Fable review #1). The
-kubeconfig is a read-only `view` ServiceAccount (`kubernetes/apps/claude-workstation/`).
-
-## Egress lockdown (staged)
-
-`claude_ws_egress_enforce` ships **`false`** so a fresh host is never bricked.
-The deny-default nftables ruleset, the DNS-resolver, and its refresh timer are
-installed regardless. Flip to `true` (in host/group vars) only after confirming
-`claude_ws_egress_allow_fqdns` / `claude_ws_egress_allow_cidrs*` cover real
-traffic — watch the `claude-egress-dropped` counter first.
-
-## Vault keys (encrypt into `inventory/group_vars/claude_workstation/vault.yml`)
-
-```
-netbird_setup_key                  # from the Netbird dashboard
-claude_ws_oauth_token_interactive  # `claude setup-token` (interactive user)
-claude_ws_oauth_token_job          # `claude setup-token` (job user, separate)

-claude_ws_kubeconfig               # read-only SA kubeconfig (literal YAML)
-```
-
-## Kill switch
-
-Everything unattended hangs off systemd timers; `systemctl disable --now
-claude-notes-distill.timer` (and the egress refresh) stops it. Every credential
-is independently revocable (SA token, claude-bot PAT, OAuth token, Netbird peer).

-# Runbook — off-site Claude Code workstation (nas-2)
-
-Operator guide for the manual steps around the `claude-workstation` role. The
-role automates everything **inside** the VM; this covers what it can't:
-VM creation, networking, secret material, egress cutover, rotation and DR.
-
-## Architecture (scope)
-
-An always-on **Debian 13 VM under Synology VMM on the off-site nas-2**
-(DS1522+, 10.3.40.0/24, reached over the site-to-site VPN, ~55 ms). It runs:
-
- **Reattachable interactive sessions** (`tmux` over SSH as user `claude`).
- **Unattended notes-distill timer** (as user `claude-job`).
- **A thin is-home-up signal** (the existing external Gatus on the Netbird VPS
-  already covers this — don't duplicate it).
-
-**Out of scope (runs in-cluster instead):** scheduled repo-automation and
-cluster-reports go in as Woodpecker cron / CronJobs with an in-cluster
-ServiceAccount — *not* on this VM, so the VM holds no cluster-write creds.
-
-Credentials on the VM are minimal: a **read-only** `view` SA kubeconfig,
-claude-bot (non-admin) gitea creds, and a Claude subscription OAuth token.
-**No talosconfig, no SOPS age key.**
-
---
-
-## Step 1 — Create + install the VM (Synology VMM)
-
-`ladmin` has no sudo and the DSM API is root-only, so VMM is driven through the
-DSM **web UI**. Two hard facts dictate the method (all confirmed 2026-07-16, as
-built): **VMM has no cloud-init**, and its ISO-install wizard only creates blank
-disks. So the OS is installed from a **remastered Debian netinst ISO that
-auto-boots a preseed** — no console interaction, no boot-menu race.
-
-VMM gotchas that shape this (see the wiki build-record):
- VMM refuses to change/unmount a VM's ISO while it is **running** ("Failed to
-  replace ISO files"). Do all ISO/boot-device edits with the VM **off**.
- A **guest reboot does not re-read** VMM's boot-device/ISO config — only a full
-  VMM power-cycle applies it. So an auto-booting install ISO **loops** (reboot →
-  CD → reinstall, wiping the disk). Break it by preseeding the installer to
-  **power off** at the end: `d-i debian-installer/exit/poweroff boolean true`.
- Attach the NIC to the **untagged `Default VM Network`** — the VLAN-40
-  `40_Server` network is isolated (no DHCP, no network). The LAN has DHCP.
-
-Procedure (build the ISO on a host with `xorriso`):
-1. Download the current Debian **netinst** (`.../debian-cd/current/amd64/iso-cd/`).
-2. Remaster it — add `/preseed.cfg` and replace `/isolinux/isolinux.cfg` with a
-   minimal one (`default preseed`, `timeout 1`, one label:
-   `kernel /install.amd/vmlinuz` /
-   `append auto=true priority=critical preseed/file=/cdrom/preseed.cfg vga=788 initrd=/install.amd/initrd.gz --- quiet`):
-   `xorriso -indev in.iso -outdev out.iso -boot_image any replay -map preseed.cfg /preseed.cfg -map isolinux.cfg /isolinux/isolinux.cfg`.
-   The preseed uses **DHCP** (`netcfg/dhcp_timeout 120` — the virtual-switch port
-   is slow to link), disk **`/dev/sda`** (VirtIO SCSI), **no user** + a locked
-   random root hash (key-only via `PermitRootLogin prohibit-password`), packages
-   `openssh-server sudo qemu-guest-agent python3`, and a `late_command` that
-   injects the SSH keys (`krenner@fortress`, `woodpecker-ci@homelab`, your
-   workstation key) into `/root/.ssh/authorized_keys`, plus the `poweroff` line.
-3. Upload to nas-2 via `ssh 'cat > /volume1/Install/<iso>' < <iso>` — **scp /
-   sftp / rsync are blocked on DSM**. Then VMM → Image → Add → From Synology NAS
-   → import (VMM **copies** it; re-import if you change the source file).
-4. Create VM: 2 vCPU, 4 GB, 50 GB on `/volume1`, **Default VM Network**, Legacy
-   BIOS, **Autostart: Yes**; attach the ISO, **Boot from DVD/CD-ROM**, power on.
-5. It installs unattended and **powers off**. Then (VM off) set **ISO =
-   Unmounted**, **Boot from = Virtual Disk**, power on → boots the installed
-   Debian. `qemu-guest-agent` reports the DHCP lease in VMM's IP column.
-6. **Pin a DSM update window** (Control Panel → Update & Restore) so an
-   auto-reboot doesn't kill tmux/jobs.
-
-> As built 2026-07-16: Debian 13 (trixie), got DHCP `10.3.40.78`, all three keys
-> injected, packages present. Freeing RAM required powering off the pre-existing
-> `pbs1` PBS VM (kept its 3.4 TB backup disk).
-
-> **At-rest encryption (Fable #6).** Off-site physical custody is weaker than
-> home. For true at-rest protection of the VM's secrets *with* unattended
-> autostart, use **network-bound decryption** (clevis + a Tang server at home):
-> a stolen disk off-site can't unlock because it can't reach Tang. Full-disk
-> LUKS with a manual passphrase would break autostart. Until Tang is stood up,
-> secrets rely on 0600 perms + VM access control — documented gap, not a fix.
-
---
-
-## Step 2 — Networking (two paths)
-
-**Netbird mesh (done via CI):** mint a setup key in the dashboard
-(`https://netbird.renner.uno`), vault it as `netbird_setup_key` under
-`group_vars/claude_workstation/`, and run `.woodpecker/deploy-netbird-client.yml`
-(`install-netbird-client.yml --limit claude_workstation`). As built 2026-07-16
-the VM enrolled as `claude-ws-190-112.nb.renner.uno` / `100.96.190.112` (+ IPv6).
-
-> **Mesh reachability caveat.** The mesh IP (`100.96.x`) is only reachable from
-> **other Netbird peers**. The home workstation and the Woodpecker CI agent are
-> **not** peers — they reach the VM only via the site-to-site tunnel at its DHCP
-> lease. So a *stable* mesh-based `ansible_host` needs CI (or a home host) on the
-> mesh first, or a Netbird routing peer bridging tunnel↔mesh. Until then the
-> inventory targets the tunnel DHCP IP.
-
-> **DNS trap.** `claude-ws.obg.renner.uno` resolves to the VM's lease **only at
-> the off-site DNS** (`@10.3.40.1`). From home this FQDN does not resolve (it
-> exists only at the off-site DNS @10.3.40.1). Never use it as `ansible_host`.
-
-**Optional — mesh route to the k8s API (redundant read path):** to reach the API
-over the mesh too, add a Netbird dashboard **network route** advertising the
-apiserver's ClusterIP to the `netbird-ingress` peer group, and add an egress
-rule to the `netbird-ingress-egress` CiliumNetworkPolicy
-(`kubernetes/infrastructure/network-policies/ingress-isolation.yaml`) permitting
-`app: netbird-ingress` pods to reach `kube-apiserver:443`. Deferred from this PR
-because it edits a security-critical CNP that can't be validated offline — do it
-as a follow-up when you want the redundant API path.
-
---
-
-## Step 3 — Read-only SA kubeconfig
-
-After the `kubernetes/apps/claude-workstation/` PR merges and Flux reconciles:
-
-```sh
-NS=apps
-TOKEN=$(kubectl -n $NS get secret claude-workstation-token -o jsonpath='{.data.token}' | base64 -d)
-kubectl -n $NS get secret claude-workstation-token -o jsonpath='{.data.ca\.crt}' | base64 -d > /tmp/ca.crt
-# server = the cluster's stable API endpoint (kubernetes/talos/patches/cluster.yaml).
-# Use the name, not an address: it is what the API server certificate carries as a
-# SAN, so an IP here fails TLS verification even when it is reachable. It must
-# resolve from the workstation over the site-to-site route.
-kubectl config set-cluster homelab --server=https://k8s.renner.uno:6443 \
-  --certificate-authority=/tmp/ca.crt --embed-certs=true --kubeconfig=/tmp/claude-ws.kubeconfig
-kubectl config set-credentials claude-workstation --token="$TOKEN" --kubeconfig=/tmp/claude-ws.kubeconfig
-kubectl config set-context homelab --cluster=homelab --user=claude-workstation --kubeconfig=/tmp/claude-ws.kubeconfig
-kubectl config use-context homelab --kubeconfig=/tmp/claude-ws.kubeconfig
-# verify read-only:
-KUBECONFIG=/tmp/claude-ws.kubeconfig kubectl get nodes        # works
-KUBECONFIG=/tmp/claude-ws.kubeconfig kubectl get secrets -A   # Forbidden (view excludes secrets)
-```
-
-The resulting file becomes the `claude_ws_kubeconfig` vault value.
-
---
-
-## Step 4 — Secret material → vault
-
-```sh
-# Two independent OAuth tokens so job jobs can't impersonate the interactive user:
-claude setup-token   # -> claude_ws_oauth_token_interactive
-claude setup-token   # -> claude_ws_oauth_token_job  (run again / separate session)
-```
-
-Encrypt into `ansible/inventory/group_vars/claude_workstation/vault.yml`
-(ansible-vault; same VAULT_PASS the CI uses):
-
-```yaml
-netbird_setup_key: "..."
-claude_ws_oauth_token_interactive: "..."
-claude_ws_oauth_token_job: "..."
-claude_ws_gitea_token: "..."                # claude-bot PAT
-claude_ws_gitea_git_credentials: "https://claude-bot:<PAT>@gitea.renner.uno"
-claude_ws_kubeconfig: |
-  apiVersion: v1
-  ...                                        # the file from Step 3
-```
-
-> **Never run `claude` with `--bare`** here or on the VM — bare mode silently
-> ignores `CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN` and the jobs will fail auth.
-
---
-
-## Step 5 — Deploy
-
-Merge the PR, then trigger the pipeline (Woodpecker → Run → `PIPELINE ==
-"deploy-claude-workstation"`), or push a change under the role's paths. CI SSHes
-to `10.3.40.60` over the tunnel and applies `common`, `netbird-client`, and this
-role. Also run the umbrella `plays/common.yml` against the new host once, so it
-picks up `qemu-guest-agent` like every other inventory host.
-
---
-
-## Step 6 — Egress cutover (staged)
-
-The nftables allowlist ships **disabled**. To enforce:
-
-1. Leave it off for a few days; watch what the box actually talks to.
-2. Confirm `claude_ws_egress_allow_fqdns` + `claude_ws_egress_allow_cidrs*`
-   (home Prometheus/Loki/API) cover it.
-3. Set `claude_ws_egress_enforce: true` in host/group vars, redeploy.
-4. Watch the `claude-egress-dropped` nft counter (`nft list ruleset`) and Loki
-   for anything legitimate being dropped; widen the allowlist as needed.
-
---
-
-## Step 7 — Notes (Syncthing pairing)
-
-The role installs Syncthing for `claude-job` and starts
-`syncthing@claude-job`. Pair it once (manual): from the VM's GUI (SSH tunnel to
-`127.0.0.1:8384`) add your existing vault's device ID and accept the shared
-`Notes` folder pointed at `{{ claude_ws_notes_dir }}`. The distill timer runs
-daily at 04:30 and only ever **creates** new atomic notes.
-
---
-
-## Rotation
-
- **OAuth token** (expires/can be revoked): re-run `claude setup-token` on your
-  laptop, update the two vault keys, redeploy. Headless auth failures surface in
-  Loki (the wrapper logs `result=failure`) — don't let them go quiet.
- **claude-bot PAT**: rotate in Gitea, update `claude_ws_gitea_*`, redeploy.
- **SA token**: `kubectl -n apps delete secret claude-workstation-token` (Flux
-  recreates it), re-assemble the kubeconfig (Step 3), update vault, redeploy.
-
-## Kill switch
-
-```sh
-systemctl disable --now claude-notes-distill.timer claude-egress-refresh.timer
-```
-
-Every credential is independently revocable: delete the SA, revoke the PAT,
-revoke the OAuth token, or remove the Netbird peer — no shared blast radius.
-
-## Disaster recovery (cattle, not pet)
-
-The VM holds no unique state — the only real state is the Notes replica, which
-re-syncs from Syncthing. To rebuild: redo **Step 1** (VM + cloud-init), then
-**Step 5** (pipeline). No VMM snapshots needed (they'd bloat the 86%-full
-`/volume1`).
