owned-dns Specification

Purpose

Define OpenHands DNS management through the owner’s tf_setup root, including canonical declarations, scoped credentials, and offline source checks before adopting live records.

Requirements

Requirement: Owner-local DNS configuration

The tf_setup root SHALL consume this owner’s canonical dnsconfig.json through the shared DNS Terraform module, preserving declared record identities and views. DNS resources SHALL default to disabled before adoption and SHALL default to enabled in the reviewed adoption revision. Adoption SHALL bind existing records to their exact provider identities and SHALL preserve their declared attributes. Existing-record adoption SHALL contain no DNS record additions, changes, replacements, or deletions. Verified missing declarations MAY be provisioned through an exact additions-only DNS plan that preserves every existing record and excludes non-DNS managed-resource changes. After deployment, default DNS reconciliation SHALL retain the bindings and preserve unrelated provider records.

Scenario: Inspect the preparatory configuration

  • WHEN the checked-in root is evaluated with default inputs before adoption
  • THEN it reads this owner’s declaration and disables managed DNS records
  • AND the package contains the module and declaration inputs

Scenario: Inspect the adopted default

  • WHEN the reviewed adoption revision is evaluated with default inputs after adoption
  • THEN it reads this owner’s declaration and enables managed DNS records
  • AND the package contains the module and declaration inputs

Scenario: Adopt existing records

  • WHEN the owner’s existing records are adopted through its scoped DNS wrappers
  • THEN Terraform binds the records to their exact provider identities
  • AND their declared values, attributes, and views remain unchanged
  • AND the reviewed adoption plan contains no DNS additions, changes, replacements, or deletions

Scenario: Reconcile without changes after adoption

  • WHEN the adopted root plans with default inputs and unchanged declarations and provider records
  • THEN the plan retains the adopted bindings and contains no DNS additions, changes, replacements, or deletions
  • AND unrelated provider records remain unchanged

Scenario: Provision missing declarations

  • WHEN fresh complete provider inventories prove the owner’s declared records are absent and conflict-free
  • THEN the reviewed DNS plan creates only those declared missing records
  • AND existing provider identities and attributes remain unchanged
  • AND a subsequent DNS plan contains no changes

Requirement: Scoped DNS execution and offline checks

The dns.plan, dns.show, and dns.apply wrappers SHALL select dns=1 through the repository AL flow using src_infra_openhands, and operate on module.dns and its dependencies in the existing tf_setup root and Vault HTTP backend. Apply SHALL consume the reviewed saved plan. Ordinary VM setup SHALL retain its tf=setup and xoa_login=1 labels, XO authentication, and existing backend paths. Secret values SHALL remain in injected variables. Real DNS credentials and Vault policy grants SHALL be prerequisites for operational DNS calls. RouterOS DNS credentials SHALL remain isolated from unrelated RouterOS resources. Successful scoped DNS execution SHALL not establish VM or service health. The package SHALL expose a format test that does not authenticate to Vault or contact DNS providers.

Scenario: Validate the Terraform source

  • WHEN the package format test executes
  • THEN it checks the packaged Terraform configuration without live credentials
  • AND existing non-DNS authentication and backend paths remain unchanged

Scenario: Prepare an operational Terraform invocation

  • WHEN the scoped DNS wrapper selects dns=1
  • THEN it selects DNS credential injection through the owner AppRole and existing backend without starting XO login
  • AND the targeted plan and saved-plan apply cover DNS and its dependencies, without establishing VM or service health
  • AND disabled DNS resources do not imply offline provider configuration
