Maarten e0faba8980 Fix critical auth validation, role naming, Sys.Audit, and apply_defaults
Safety fix: --cleanup-all, --resources, --labs silently failed when
PROXMOX_TOKEN_SECRET was not set, reporting "No VMs found" instead of
an auth error. Added require_api_auth() gate and error propagation in
pve_list_vms() to fail loudly on API auth failures.

Also:
- Standardize role name to IncusOSDeployer across all docs and scripts
- Add Sys.Audit privilege to all setup command examples
- Document /nodes/pve ACL requirement for scoped permissions
- Update lab-cluster.yaml: apply_defaults: false for joining nodes
  (upstream IncusOS recommendation to avoid 8-command cleanup)
- Add full cluster automation to lab-test phase_cluster:
  core.https_address setup, remote cert fixup, automated join prompts,
  conditional defaults cleanup for apply_defaults: true nodes

incu-contrib

Peripheral tools, snippets, and scripts for working with Incus, IncusOS, and the broader ecosystem.

Primarily aimed at home lab environments but useful in production as well.

Contents

incusos/

Scripts for building IncusOS installation media and seed configurations:

  • incusos-iso -- Build customized IncusOS ISO/IMG images using the official flasher-tool. Supports both architectures (x86_64, aarch64), multiple applications (Incus, Operations Center), automatic client certificate injection, and batch generation.

  • incusos-seed -- Generate IncusOS seed archives (tar or FAT image) for installation customization. Covers all seed file types: install, applications, Incus preseed, Operations Center, network, and update configuration.

  • incusos-proxmox -- Declarative IncusOS deployment on Proxmox VE. Define VMs in YAML, and the script handles seed generation, ISO upload, VM creation with correct settings (UEFI, TPM 2.0, VirtIO-SCSI), and automated installation.

See incusos/README.md for full documentation.

Research notes and reference material:

Quick Start

# Install the flasher-tool (requires Go 1.22+)
go install github.com/lxc/incus-os/incus-osd/cmd/flasher-tool@latest

# Build a default IncusOS ISO with your client cert injected
./incusos/incusos-iso

# Build for a specific architecture and application
./incusos/incusos-iso --arch aarch64 --app operations-center --defaults

# Generate all common ISO variants at once
./incusos/incusos-iso --batch

# Generate a standalone seed archive
./incusos/incusos-seed --app incus --defaults --output my-seed.tar

# Generate a SEED_DATA FAT image for external boot media
./incusos/incusos-seed --format fat --app incus --defaults --output seed.img

Requirements

  • Go 1.22+ -- for installing the flasher-tool
  • curl -- for downloading images from the CDN
  • tar, gzip -- for seed archive creation and image decompression
  • Incus client (recommended) -- for automatic client certificate detection. Works with any version; certificates are read directly from disk. See version compatibility notes for install instructions per platform (macOS, Debian/Ubuntu, Arch).
  • mtools (optional) -- for creating FAT seed images
