Session 2026-05-26 — Status Check (No Change)
Timestamp: ~00:30 UTC / ~10:30 AEST
Duration: <5 min
Goal
Routine cron session — check for any changes since May 25.
Task Performed
Verified .git-credentials and database state.
Findings
GitLab Credential (UNCHANGED)
/opt/data/.git-credentials still contains ***:
https://hermes:***@gitlab.paralla.org
No change since root cause was confirmed on May 25. This continues to block all CronJob runs.
Database State (UNCHANGED)
| File | Size | Last Modified | Products |
|---|---|---|---|
smart_groceries.db | 57KB | May 7, 2026 | 0 |
products.db | 0 bytes | May 7, 2026 | — |
grocery.db | 0 bytes | May 22, 2026 | — |
No new data imported in the past day. DB state identical to yesterday’s check.
smart-groceries-deploy project
Directory /opt/data/wiki/projects/smart-groceries-deploy/ does not exist. Archive reference found at wiki/archive/2026/stale/smart-groceries-deploy.md. This sub-project appears to have been archived and is no longer actively tracked under the main project.
Assessment: STILL BLOCKED
No actionable progress possible. Same two blockers as May 25, unchanged:
- CronJob auth: GitLab token
***in.git-credentials— requires pvs to rotate PAT or switch CronJob to SSH clone URL. - Coles scraping: Imperva WAF blocks all IPs (NordVPN flagged).
Recommended action for pvs
Patch the CronJob manifest to use SSH (git@gitlab.paralla.org:hermes/smart-groceries.git) instead of HTTPS with the invalid token. The existing sa-scrape.yaml ServiceAccount in the k8s/ folder already has SSH key access configured.
