G14 Platform Infra
platform-infra is the G14 k3s namespace for UniDesk-operated shared platform services. It is separate from HWLAB runtime lanes, AgentRun lanes, D601 user services, and legacy devops-infra control-plane helpers. New shared infra should land here first; old devops-infra resources migrate gradually only when a concrete owner and validation path exist.
Source Of Truth
- UniDesk-owned platform configuration must be YAML-first.
config/platform-infra/*.yamlis the durable source for images, versions, endpoints, FRP exposure, account profile selection, and local consumer configuration. - Runtime Secrets and local
~/.codex/config.toml*/auth.json*files are inputs or generated local state, not committed truth. CLI output may show Secret paths, byte counts, fingerprints, and short previews only; it must not print complete API keys. - Code that reads platform YAML must validate object shape, field types, required fields, Kubernetes names, image strings, and ports before mutating G14 k3s or local consumer files.
- Do not hide image versions, namespace names, endpoint URLs, FRP ports, or profile lists in Python/TOML/JSON helper constants when they are UniDesk-owned choices. External tools may still require their own TOML/JSON/env file formats at the edge.
Sub2API Deployment Boundary
- Sub2API is a G14 platform service operated by UniDesk in namespace
platform-infra. It is not a HWLAB lane workload, AgentRun workload, D601 service, or master server daemon. - The canonical deployment entrypoint is
bun scripts/cli.ts platform-infra sub2api plan|apply|status|validate|codex-pool; daily operation procedures live in$unidesk-sub2apiat.agents/skills/unidesk-sub2api/SKILL.md. This reference keeps only development boundaries and project-specific source-of-truth rules. - Raw
kubectlthroughtrans G14:k3sis only for bounded diagnosis and evidence, not a formal mutate path. - The image version is controlled by
config/platform-infra/sub2api.yaml. Image update procedures are daily operations owned by$unidesk-sub2api; the development boundary is that image choices remain YAML-controlled. - Sub2API should stay ClusterIP-only by default. Do not add Ingress, NodePort, LoadBalancer, or broad FRP exposure unless a YAML-controlled public exposure decision exists.
- Sub2API currently has no resource limits by design. Do not add CPU or memory limits unless a later explicit decision changes that policy and stores the new policy in YAML.
- Master server is a consumer/control host, not the runtime location. Do not deploy Sub2API, PostgreSQL, Redis, or heavy validation loops on master server.
Codex Pool Routing
config/platform-infra/sub2api-codex-pool.yaml controls the Codex-facing OpenAI-compatible pool:
pool.groupNamenames the Sub2API group that represents the pool.pool.apiKeySecretNameandpool.apiKeySecretKeyname the k3s Secret that stores the single consumer API key.pool.minOwnerConcurrencyis optional; when omitted, the CLI automatically uses the sum of all resolved account capacities as the minimum concurrency for the Sub2API user that owns the unified consumer API key. A YAML value is only an explicit override and must still be at least that capacity sum, so the shared key does not fail requests or WS sessions at the user-concurrency layer. "Resolved" means each account's explicitprofiles.entries[].capacityor, when omitted,pool.defaultAccountCapacity. Do not compensate for owner-concurrency 1013 errors by pinning capacity to one provider.pool.defaultTempUnschedulableis the Sub2API built-in temporary-unschedulable switch plus its YAML rule list. UniDesk keeps this built-in switch disabled by default while preserving the rule list in YAML for explicit future recovery; sync follows the WebUI close-switch behavior by omitting the runtimetemp_unschedulable_enabledandtemp_unschedulable_rulescredential fields. The external account-level sentinel is the active account health and freeze/restore mechanism.- The built-in temporary-unschedulable configuration and external
sentinel.*configuration are separate control surfaces. Changingpool.defaultTempUnschedulable.enabledorprofiles.entries[].tempUnschedulablemust not change sentinel cadence, marker health semantics, or sentinel quarantine state; changing sentinel settings must not implicitly enable Sub2API built-in temporary-unschedulable rules. - Codex accounts selected by YAML do not declare
schedulableas durable configuration.schedulable=trueis acodex-pool sync --confirmprocess-control baseline for UniDesk-managed accounts that are not under sentinel quarantine, not a YAML field. codex-pool sync --confirmpreserves UniDesk-managed accounts that are absent from YAML by default; explicit upstream retirement requirescodex-pool sync --confirm --prune-removed. This keeps account deletion out of the normal availability-recovery path and prevents temporary YAML edits from becoming destructive runtime changes.profiles.entriesselects local Codex profile files from~/.codex/and maps them to Sub2API account names.- The unsuffixed master
~/.codex/config.tomland~/.codex/auth.jsonare reserved for the unified Sub2API consumer.config.tomlmust keepbase_url = "https://sub2api.74-48-78-17.nip.io/", andauth.jsonmust contain the unified pool API key frompool.apiKeySecretName/pool.apiKeySecretKey. Do not replace these two files with direct upstream account credentials. - Additional upstream accounts must use suffixed local profile files such as
config.toml.<profile>andauth.json.<profile>, then be declared throughprofiles.entriesinconfig/platform-infra/sub2api-codex-pool.yaml. profiles.entries[].capacityoptionally overridespool.defaultAccountCapacityfor one account. Capacity is a YAML-controlled routing input; concrete current values belong only inconfig/platform-infra/sub2api-codex-pool.yamland runtime validation output, not in long-term reference prose. Code constants, Secrets, ad-hoc runtime patches, or stale tests must not override YAML source of truth.profiles.entries[].loadFactoroptionally overridespool.defaultAccountLoadFactorfor one account and is rendered to Sub2APIload_factor. Treat it as routing policy: values belong in YAML andcodex-pool validateoutput, not code constants, Secrets, or ad-hoc runtime patches.- Do not change account membership, priority, capacity, load factor, WebSocket mode, or other routing policy from inference alone. Unless the user explicitly asks for a configuration change, first preserve the current YAML, collect provenance and runtime evidence, and write the finding to the relevant issue or runbook before proposing a change.
profiles.entries[].tempUnschedulablemay override the pool default for one account. When enabled, the CLI renders it into Sub2API credentials astemp_unschedulable_enabledandtemp_unschedulable_rules; when disabled, runtime credentials omit both fields and the YAML rule list remains only source-side configuration.- Codex account-state, quota prompts, model-routing failures, gateway wrappers, and timeout-like upstream errors are handled by the external marker-only sentinel unless the Sub2API built-in temporary-unschedulable switch is explicitly re-enabled. Do not change membership, priority, capacity, load factor, WebSocket mode, or
pool_modemerely to work around those errors. profiles.entries[].openaiResponsesWebSocketsV2Modeis the account-level Responses WebSocket v2 switch for OpenAI-compatible upstreams that require WebSocket transport. Allowed values areoff,ctx_pool, andpassthrough; omit the field unless that upstream needs it.profiles.entries[].upstreamUserAgentis an optional account-level upstream request User-Agent override. Use it only for upstreams that require a Codex CLI compatible User-Agent; keep the value YAML-controlled and newline-free.publicExposurecontrols the optional FRP bridge from master server to the G14 ClusterIP service.publicExposure.masterCaddy.responseHeaderTimeoutSecondscontrols the master Caddyresponse_header_timeoutfor the public Sub2API site. It must be long enough for Codex/responses/compactrequests; otherwise Caddy can return a client-visible 504 before Sub2API finishes the upstream compact request, and that edge timeout is not an account-level upstream failure that Sub2API can use for temporary-unschedulable failover. The numeric value belongs only inconfig/platform-infra/sub2api-codex-pool.yaml; after changing it, usecodex-pool expose --confirmto reload Caddy and verify the renderedresponse_header_timeout. Requests that were already in flight before the reload may still finish with the previous timeout, so post-change evidence should check only requests that started after the reload.publicExposure.masterCaddy.edgeRetrycontrols the master Caddy reverse-proxy retry window for the public Sub2API site. This belongs at the edge because FRP remotePort listener loss,connection refused, EOF, or connection reset can happen before a request reaches Sub2API, so Sub2API account failover and sentinel logic cannot observe or recover that request. Keep retry scope narrow, especially for non-idempotent POST traffic: connection-attempt failures may be retried by the reverse proxy, while round-trip retry after an upstream connection was established should be limited by YAMLretryMatchto paths that are safe to repeat, such as compact. Retry durations and intervals belong only in YAML; after changing them, runcodex-pool expose --confirmand verify the rendered Caddyfile contains the expectedlb_try_duration,lb_try_interval, andlb_retry_match.localCodexcontrols how the master server's current~/.codexconsumer files are backed up and rewritten. KeepsupportsWebSocketsandresponsesWebSocketsV2in the same state, and enable them only when at least one YAML-managed account has a current direct Codex WSv2 smoke that passes. If no upstream profile can sustain Responses WSv2, the honest long-term state isfalse/falseso Codex uses HTTP Responses directly instead of repeatedly reconnecting beforeresponse.completed.localCodex.responsesSmokeModelis the YAML-declared model used bycodex-pool validatefor the lightweightPOST /v1/responsessmoke.
Enable account-level WebSocket v2 only for upstream profiles that have passed a direct Codex WSv2 probe. Treat this as a YAML-declared capability set, not a hard scheduling pin to one profile; if localCodex enables WebSocket transport, codex-pool validate must show at least one current webSocketsV2.schedulableEnabled account, and runtime smoke remains the availability proof. The same validation reports each managed account's runtime WebSocket v2 mode and whether it matches YAML, so stale ctx_pool / passthrough settings cannot silently keep routing Codex WS sessions to an upstream that closes with no available account, WS handshake 5xx/4xx, or before response.completed.
When Codex startup repeatedly reports WebSocket reconnects or HTTPS fallback, preserve membership, priority, capacity, load factor, and other routing policy until runtime logs identify the failing account and transport. If bounded Sub2API logs show repeated openai.websocket_proxy_failed, openai.websocket_account_select_failed, upstream WS handshake 4xx/5xx, or repeated close-before-response.completed for the only WS-capable account, remove that account from the WSv2 capability set in YAML; if the resulting capability set is empty, also turn off the localCodex WS feature flags. Then run codex-pool sync --confirm, codex-pool validate, and prove the result with a Codex smoke that no longer emits reconnects.
Do not encode current availability assumptions in long-term reference prose. If an account needs a higher concurrency or load factor than the pool default, make that a deliberate YAML override and verify it with codex-pool validate; the reference document should describe the rule, not repeat the current numeric value.
Do not enable Sub2API pool_mode for UniDesk-managed Codex accounts. pool_mode retries the same selected account path and does not replace sentinel quarantine. The current failover and recovery model is: the external marker-only sentinel freezes or restores account schedulability, while Sub2API routes among currently schedulable accounts in the group.
Sub2API temporary-unschedulable rules require both an HTTP status match and a response-body keyword match in the upstream failure/error path when the built-in switch is enabled. UniDesk currently keeps that switch disabled and does not use built-in rules as a successful-response content filter. HTTP 200 private content, maintenance text, quota prompts, ads, and similar semantic failures are handled by the external account-level sentinel.
Sub2API Account Test Semantics
Sub2API v0.1.136 has a separate management-plane account connection test. The admin WebUI account modal calls POST /api/v1/admin/accounts/:id/test with model_id and, for the admin account table modal, no OpenAI mode; the backend binds this to AccountTestService.TestAccountConnection, which normalizes an empty mode to default.
For OpenAI API-key accounts in default mode, the test loads the account by id, applies account.GetMappedModel(model_id), checks openai_compat.ShouldUseResponsesAPI(account.Extra), and then builds an upstream URL from the account base URL with /v1/responses. It sends a direct upstream request through httpUpstream.DoWithTLS with Content-Type: application/json and Authorization: Bearer <account-key>. The request body is Responses API SSE, not a non-streaming JSON request: model is the mapped model, input is one user message whose text is hi, stream is true, and instructions is Sub2API's embedded OpenAI default instructions. For API-key accounts it does not set store: false, max_output_tokens, Codex CLI User-Agent, OpenAI-Beta, Originator, Version, Session_ID, or Conversation_ID; those Codex-like headers appear in other paths such as compact probing, not in the default account test.
The management test success criterion is transport and stream completion, not semantic content. A non-200 upstream response becomes an SSE error. A 200 response is considered successful when processOpenAIStream sees response.completed or response.done; response.output_text.delta chunks are forwarded to the WebUI as display text, while response.failed, error, or EOF before completion fails the test. Therefore a WebUI "hi" success proves that this direct account can complete a streaming /v1/responses request with Sub2API's default payload shape, but it does not prove that a non-streaming Responses request, marker prompt, max_output_tokens, store: false, Codex header set, compact path, WebSocket path, or normal pool-scheduled gateway request will behave identically.
This management-plane test is also outside the normal consumer gateway scheduler. It fetches the account by id instead of listing only schedulable accounts, so status=active in the modal and a successful account test can coexist with schedulable=false in scheduler state. Because the test performs its own outbound DoWithTLS call, regular gateway access logs and usage logs may not contain the upstream account id/path/status evidence expected from ordinary /v1/responses traffic. When diagnosing account tests, use the management route semantics above or Sub2API source, not gateway access-log absence or an unrelated pool request as proof.
An external account-level sentinel that wants parity with this WebUI path should reuse the same request shape as far as the standard OpenAI SDK allows: direct account credentials, Responses API, stream=true, no store: false for API-key accounts, no upstream max_output_tokens field, and success parsing based on the streaming events. A local stream delta collection limit is acceptable as a sentinel safety bound, but it should not change the upstream request body. The sentinel may replace the user text hi with a marker prompt, but it should not introduce extra request fields or Codex/compact headers merely for convenience. If a marker-only sentinel intentionally diverges from the management test shape, the divergence must be documented in probe output so a WebUI success and sentinel failure are not misread as operator error.
Account Sentinel Marker Contract
The UniDesk account-level sentinel uses marker-only health semantics. A probe is healthy only when the upstream response satisfies the configured marker match. Every other result is unhealthy and must enter the same exponential freeze state machine, regardless of whether the immediate response is HTTP 200, 400, 403, 429, 500, 502, 503, 504, a streaming error event, malformed output, empty output, timeout, or any other transport/API failure. HTTP status, upstream error code, body hash, body preview, headers, and SDK exception class are diagnostics only; they must not become additional allow/deny criteria that bypass marker mismatch.
The sentinel must not maintain separate classifiers for "private content", "maintenance", "quota", "ads", or provider-specific body phrases as health gates. The only recovery condition is a later recovery probe that matches the marker. Freeze TTL expiry only schedules the next recovery probe; it does not restore an account by itself. Repeated non-marker results use a short exponential freeze backoff because failed marker probes produce little or no useful output token usage; repeated marker-matching results use the configured success cadence backoff. This contract applies equally to OpenAI Responses gpt-5.5 direct account probes and manual codex-pool sentinel-probe --account ... --confirm measurements.
profiles.entries[].trustUpstream is the durable account-level trust marker for sentinel success cadence, and the absence of the field means untrusted. Trusted and untrusted accounts use separate YAML cadence maximums after marker-matching probes; the values belong only in config/platform-infra/sub2api-codex-pool.yaml. This field must not change Sub2API scheduler priority, capacity, load factor, membership, built-in temporary-unschedulable settings, or the marker-only health contract. Its purpose is to keep intermittently unreliable 200-success providers under more frequent direct probes without adding provider-specific content classifiers.
When codex-pool sync --confirm creates a YAML-managed account or changes direct-probe-relevant account inputs such as the profile mapping, upstream base URL, API key fingerprint, upstream User-Agent, Responses WebSocket mode, or trustUpstream, only that account must be default-frozen before it can enter the scheduler. Sync first records a pending sentinel quality gate from the pre-mutation runtime state, then updates the account, then schedules the account probe immediately. This ordering prevents a new or changed account from being written to Sub2API without a matching sentinel quarantine record if sync fails midway. Passing the marker clears the quality gate and restores schedulability; any non-marker result continues the failure freeze backoff. Unchanged accounts must not have their existing success or failure backoff reset by unrelated YAML syncs.
If the YAML failure freeze maximum is lowered, codex-pool sync --confirm may migrate only currently active sentinel quarantines whose stored interval or next recovery time exceeds the current maximum. The migration keeps the account frozen, marks the next recovery probe due immediately, and lets the next marker result decide restore versus the new shorter failure backoff. It must not clear quarantine or restore schedulability merely because an older TTL has expired.
If the YAML success cadence maximum is lowered or an account changes trust class, codex-pool sync --confirm may clamp existing successful account state so the next probe is due under the current YAML policy instead of waiting for an older, longer success window to expire. This clamp only affects sentinel state and probe timing; it does not by itself restore a quarantined account or bypass the next marker result.
Operational observation for this sentinel should use the read-only codex-pool sentinel-report table or its --raw form. It is the canonical low-noise view for per-account probe count, trust class, marker result, HTTP/error diagnostics, freeze TTL, success cadence, success cadence maximum, next probe time, and recent CronJob runs; raw ConfigMap dumps and ad hoc log scraping are fallback diagnostics, not the primary state surface.
The request path is:
- A client sends an OpenAI-compatible request to the configured consumer base URL, normally
https://sub2api.74-48-78-17.nip.io/v1/..., with the unified API key. - master
frpsforwards the TCP connection toplatform-infra/sub2api-frpcwhenpublicExposure.enabledis true. sub2api-frpcforwards tosub2api.platform-infra.svc.cluster.local:8080.- Sub2API validates the unified key and resolves its
group_id. - Accounts listed in
profiles.entriesare bound to the same group viagroup_ids, so Sub2API dispatches through that group using its own account selection semantics.
Adding, removing, exposing, validating, and configuring local Codex consumers are daily operations covered by $unidesk-sub2api. The development rule is that ordinary pool membership changes stay YAML-only and do not add code or CI/CD. Code changes are only appropriate when UniDesk needs to render or validate a Sub2API capability that already exists upstream, such as account-level WebSocket mode or per-account upstream User-Agent. If Sub2API itself does not support a desired behavior, do not magic-patch it through UniDesk scripts, Kubernetes hotfixes, local forks, or hidden compatibility paths; either leave the behavior unsupported or pursue it upstream as an explicit Sub2API feature.
codex-pool sync --confirm and codex-pool validate are runtime operations that may need more than one SSH short-connection window because they log in to Sub2API, reconcile accounts, inspect recent logs, and run gateway smoke requests. The formal entry remains the UniDesk CLI, which must use a submit-and-short-poll control shape or an equivalent remote job wrapper instead of one long trans G14:k3s script call. If these commands fail with UNIDESK_SSH_RUNTIME_TIMEOUT while the remote operation may still be running, treat it as a control-plane visibility gap first: improve or use the CLI's job/poll path, then rerun sync or validate. Do not replace it with raw kubectl, manual Sub2API admin API patches, repeated blind full loops, or Sub2API source modifications.
After codex-pool configure-local --confirm, the default ~/.codex/config.toml / auth.json pair must remain the unified Sub2API consumer and must not be reused as an upstream account profile. Keep every upstream source profile in suffixed files such as config.toml.<profile> / auth.json.<profile> and register it through YAML profiles.entries.
Public FRP Boundary
When publicExposure.enabled is true, the same FRP TCP bridge exposes both OpenAI-compatible API paths and the built-in Sub2API management frontend. The management UI is reachable at the configured publicExposure.publicBaseUrl and its /login route; do not allocate a second public port unless a separate YAML-controlled exposure decision exists.
The public management UI is an operations endpoint. Keep Sub2API itself in platform-infra, keep the Kubernetes Service as ClusterIP, and treat FRP as the only public bridge unless a later decision explicitly changes the exposure model.
The public bridge has two separate failure classes. Sub2API upstream/account failures are visible in Sub2API logs and currently belong to sentinel quarantine plus normal Sub2API routing among schedulable accounts. Edge failures between master Caddy and the FRP remotePort are not visible to Sub2API; symptoms include Caddy connect: connection refused, EOF, connection reset, or short 502 bursts while frps closes and reopens the configured remotePort. Those failures must be diagnosed from Caddy and frps/frpc evidence and mitigated through YAML-controlled Caddy edge retry or FRP stability fixes, not by disabling accounts or changing pool membership.
Availability And Probes
Kubernetes readiness is not the same as pool availability:
- The Sub2API app, PostgreSQL, and Redis manifests include container-level health probes. These only prove the pods and local dependencies are healthy enough for Kubernetes scheduling.
- The FRP client deployment is currently a simple connector deployment and does not itself prove that master-local traffic reaches Sub2API.
- No scheduled
CronJob,ServiceMonitor, orPodMonitorcurrently proves the full unified Codex API path. platform-infra sub2api validateandplatform-infra sub2api codex-pool validateare on-demand checks. Operational usage is documented in$unidesk-sub2api; they are acceptable for deployment closeout, but they are not continuous monitoring.codex-pool validatemust test bothGET /v1/modelsand a smallPOST /v1/responsesrequest, and the Responses smoke should report request id, selected/final account evidence, upstream failover count, and whether the validation succeeded only after failover. It should also summarize recent/responsesand/responses/compactgateway failures separately so ordinary long streaming failures are not hidden behind compact-only evidence.- Public exposure closeout must include the edge layer when the user-facing URL is involved. A Sub2API-side compact success summary does not rule out Caddy/FRP 502s that happened before Sub2API received the request; inspect the edge Caddy/frps/frpc evidence or use a CLI report that summarizes it before declaring public compact stable.
- Because
codex-pool validateincludes account alignment, recent-log inspection, and gateway smoke, timeout of the CLI transport is not valid negative evidence about Sub2API scheduling by itself. Closeout evidence must come from the final structured validation result or from an explicitly reported remote job failure with stdout/stderr tail, not from a single low-leveltranstimeout.
When an automatic availability probe is added, it should be YAML-controlled and cover these layers without printing secrets:
- G14 in-cluster
GET /v1/modelsthroughsub2api.platform-infra.svc.cluster.local:8080with the unified key. - master-local
GET /v1/modelsthrough the configured FRP endpoint when public exposure is enabled. - A tiny
POST /v1/responsescall through the same consumer URL for true OpenAI-compatible request validation. - Optional per-upstream account probes if Sub2API exposes a safe account selection or admin-health mechanism; otherwise document that group-level success does not prove every upstream account is healthy.
Until continuous probing exists, closeout comments must state that validation was on-demand and include the exact CLI/API entrypoints used.
k3s Network Policy Requirements
G14 k3s runs kube-router as its network policy controller. When any NetworkPolicy CRD exists in a namespace, kube-router replaces its default allow-all behavior with explicit iptables/ipset rules that only permit traffic matching declared policies. If a namespace has NetworkPolicy resources but the generated iptables rules miss or incorrectly evaluate a traffic path, pods in that namespace will experience silent connection timeouts (REJECT with icmp-port-unreachable) even though kubectl get networkpolicy shows the policy and DNS/service resolution works.
The platform-infra namespace must have a NetworkPolicy named allow-all (or equivalent) that explicitly permits all ingress and egress within the namespace. Without it, kube-router's default-deny iptables chains block cross-pod traffic including Sub2API → PostgreSQL and Sub2API → Redis connections, causing Sub2API init containers and background services to hang with context deadline exceeded or no response errors.
Diagnostic symptoms:
- Sub2API pod stuck
Init:0/2withwait-postgresloggingsub2api-postgres:5432 - no responseperpetually pg_isreadysucceeds inside the postgres pod itself but TCP from any other pod times outkubectl execfrom a different pod ornc -zvto the postgres ClusterIP/pod-IP returnsOperation timed outiptables -L KUBE-ROUTER-INPUT -n | grep <namespace>shows per-pod FW chains; the chain ends withREJECT ... mark match ! 0x10000/0x10000
If kube-router iptables rules become stale after a NetworkPolicy create/update cycle (e.g., ipset references old pod IPs or mark-bit logic fails to match), the fastest recovery is: iptables -I FORWARD 1 -s 10.42.0.0/16 -d 10.42.0.0/16 -j ACCEPT as a temporary bypass, then recreate the NetworkPolicy or restart kube-router/k3s to force a full iptables sync. After recovery, remove the temporary rule: iptables -D FORWARD -s 10.42.0.0/16 -d 10.42.0.0/16 -j ACCEPT.
The manifest for the required allow-all policy is:
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: NetworkPolicy
metadata:
name: allow-all
namespace: platform-infra
spec:
podSelector: {}
policyTypes:
- Ingress
- Egress
ingress:
- {}
egress:
- {}
This policy must be included in the sub2api plan / apply manifest rendering so that it is created as part of the normal deployment flow, not maintained as a manual one-off.
platform-infra sub2api status must report whether NetworkPolicy/allow-all exists and still has podSelector: {}, policyTypes: [Ingress, Egress], ingress: [{}], and egress: [{}]. platform-infra sub2api validate must also run temporary in-namespace probe pods that connect to sub2api-postgres:5432 and sub2api-redis:6379; local pg_isready inside the PostgreSQL pod alone is insufficient because it does not exercise kube-router cross-pod policy evaluation.
