+When generating or modifying CI/CD workflows, strictly follow these networking practices:
+
+1. **IP-Based Login for Reliability**
+   - When CI runners (like Gitea Actions) need to interact with internal services for authentication or deployment, always use direct IP addresses (e.g., `192.168.0.25`) for machine-to-machine login steps.
+   - **Why?** This bypasses potential DNS resolution issues or delays within the isolated runner environment, ensuring maximum robustness during automated CI/CD runs.

+
+When modifying or generating Bind9 zone files, you MUST strictly adhere to the following rules:
+
+1. **Serial Increment (CRITICAL)**
+   - Every single time you modify a Bind9 zone file (e.g., `db.depeuter.dev`), you MUST increment the Serial number in the SOA record. Failure to do so will cause DNS propagation to fail.
+2. **Domain Name Specificity**
+   - Prefer a single, well-defined explicit domain (e.g., `nix-cache.depeuter.dev`) instead of creating multiple aliases or using magic values. Keep records clean and explicit.

+# Git Workflow Constraints
+
+When generating commit messages, reviewing code for a commit, or planning a branch workflow, strictly follow these standards:
+
+1. **Commit Formatting**
+   - **Conventional Commits**: You MUST format all commit messages using conventional prefixes: `feat:`, `fix:`, `docs:`, `refactor:`, `ci:`, `meta:`.
+   - **Clarity**: Ensure the message clearly explains *what* changed and *why*.
+2. **Atomic Commits**
+   - Group changes by a single logical concern.
+   - NEVER mix documentation updates, core infrastructure code, and style guide changes in the same commit.
+   - Ensure that the generated commit is easily revertible without breaking unrelated features.
+3. **Branching Workflow**
+   - Always assume changes will be pushed to a feature branch to create a Pull Request.
+   - Do not suggest or generate commands that push directly to the main branch.

+
+# NixOS Architecture Skill
+
+When generating or modifying NixOS configuration files for the Bos55 project, strictly adhere to the following architectural patterns:
+
+## 1. Minimal Hardcoding & Dynamic Discovery
+
+- **Local IP Ownership**: Define IPv4/IPv6 addresses **only** within their respective host configuration files (e.g., `hosts/<HostName>/default.nix`). Do not use global IP mapping modules.
+- **Inter-Host Discovery**: Resolve a host's IP or port by evaluating its configuration at build time. Never hardcode another host's IP.
+  **Pattern Example**:
+  ```
+  let
+    bcConfig = inputs.self.nixosConfigurations.BinaryCache.config;
+    bcIp = (pkgs.lib.head bcConfig.networking.interfaces.ens18.ipv4.addresses).address;
+  in "http://${bcIp}:8080"
+  ```
+- **Unified Variables**: Use local variables (e.g., `let dbName = "attic"; in ...`) for shared values between host services and containers to ensure consistency.
+
+## 2. Modular Service Encapsulation
+
+- **Self-Contained Modules**: Service modules (`modules/services/<service>/default.nix`) must manage their own configurations. Prefer `lib.mkOption` over hardcoded strings for domains, ports, and credentials.
+- **Firewall Responsibility**: Open ports (e.g., TCP 8080, SSH 22) directly within the service module based on its own options. Do not open service ports manually in host files.
+- **Remote Builders**: Define `nix.settings.trusted-users`, `builder` user, and SSH rules directly within the service module if it supports remote building (e.g., Attic).
+
+## 3. Networking & Connectivity
+
+- **Container-to-Host**: Host services must connect to companion containers using the container name, not the bridge IP or `localhost`.
+- **Host Resolution**: Map the container name to `127.0.0.1` using `networking.extraHosts` in the host service module to route traffic seamlessly.
+- **Domain Deferral**: Client modules must defer their default domain settings to the server module's defined domain option.
+
+## 4. Secrets Management
+
+- **Sops-Nix Exclusivity**: Manage all secrets via `sops-nix`.
+- **Centralized Config**: Rely on `modules/common/default.nix` for fleet-wide settings like `defaultSopsFile` and `age.keyFile`.
+- **References**: Always reference credentials dynamically using `config.sops.secrets."path/to/secret".path`.
+
+## 5. Security & Documentation
+
+- **Supply Chain Protection**: Always verify and lock Nix flake inputs. Use fixed-output derivations for external resource downloads.
+- **Assumptions Documentation**: Clearly document environment assumptions (e.g., Proxmox virtualization, Tailscale networking, and specific IP ranges) in host or service READMEs.
+- **Project Structure**: Maintain the strict separation of `hosts/`, `modules/`, `users/`, and `secrets/` to ensure clear ownership and security boundaries.

-# Bos55 NixOS Config
-
-Automated CI/CD deployment for NixOS homelab using `deploy-rs`.
-
-## Repository Structure
-
-- `hosts/`: Host-specific configurations.
-- `modules/`: Shared NixOS modules.
-- `users/`: User definitions (including the `deploy` user).
-- `secrets/`: Encrypted secrets via `sops-nix`.
-
-## Deployment Workflow
-
-### Prerequisites
-- SSH access to the `deploy` user on target hosts.
-- `deploy-rs` installed locally (`nix profile install github:serokell/deploy-rs`).
-
-### Deployment Modes
-
-1.  **Production Deployment (main branch):**
-    Triggered on push to `main`. Automatically builds and switches all hosts. bootloader is updated.
-    Manual: `deploy .`
-
-2.  **Test Deployment (test-<hostname> branch):**
-    Triggered on push to `test-<hostname>`. Builds and activates the configuration on the specific host **without** updating the bootloader. Reboots will revert to the previous generation.
-    Manual: `deploy .#<hostname>.test`
-
-3.  **Kernel Upgrades / Maintenance:**
-    Use `deploy .#<hostname>.system --boot` to update the bootloader without immediate activation, followed by a manual reboot.
-
-## Local Development
-
-### 1. Developer Shell
-This repository includes a standardized development environment containing all necessary tools (`deploy-rs`, `sops`, `age`, etc.).
-```bash
-nix develop
-# or if using direnv
-direnv allow
-```
-
-### 2. Build a host VM
-You can build a QEMU VM for any host configuration to test changes locally:
-```bash
-nix build .#nixosConfigurations.<hostname>.config.system.build.vm
-./result/bin/run-<hostname>-vm
-```
-
-> [!WARNING]
-> **Network Conflict**: Default VMs use user-mode networking (NAT) which is safe. However, if you configure the VM to use bridge networking, it will attempt to use the static IP defined in `hostIp`. Ensure you do not have a physical host with that IP active on the same bridge to avoid network interference.
-
-### 3. Run Integration Tests
-Run the automated test suite:
-```bash
-nix-build test/vm-test.nix
-```
-
-### 3. Test CI Workflows Locally
-Use `act` to test the GitHub Actions workflows:
-```bash
-act -W .github/workflows/check.yml
-```
-
-## Security
-See [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md) for details on the trust model and secret management.
