DOCFIX-195: office1-netbox holds the VR1 IPAM apex role; apex write-back deferred; C2 redefined ...

Operator ruling 2026-07-15: office1-netbox (10.10.1.10) HOLDS THE IPAM APEX
ROLE during VR1 -- the authoritative NetBox every consuming system (OpenTofu,
MAAS, overlays, bundle) derives its values from. It is a working draft (edited
as the buildout proceeds), but it is the apex. netbox.baldurkeep.com takes NO
write during VR1; it is the eventual production apex, frozen as a read-only v1
reference draft. Merge-back is deferred to end-of-deployment (a maybe), NOT a
Stage 2 gate.

The repo encoded the opposite roles and defined close-out C2 (the last Stage 2
gate, and the branch->main merge trigger) as an operator-gated write UPSTREAM.
Under the ruling there is no apex write in Stage 2, so C2 is redefined:
office1-netbox holds the COMPLETE validated dataset -- carve + six-plane roles
+ both DCs + the D-120 compose-/24 child ranges + the two service IPs -- and it
is VERIFIED. C2 stays OPEN.

Finding surfaced while drafting (logged, not fixed): the D-120 objects are
ip-ranges/ip-addresses, object classes the sandbox loop does NOT cover
(prod-draft-dump.py ENDPOINTS and sandbox-fidelity-check.py KEY/EXPECTED_NEW
both stop at rirs/roles/regions/sites/aggregates/prefixes). So the hardened
fidelity check cannot verify the D-120 load; verifying it needs a tool
extension (+harness) or a recorded manual read-back. Confirmed no live system
config points at any NetBox URL -- documentation-only change.

D-119: region-qualify the VR1 DC namespace -- C3 / gap #19 CLOSED (Stage 3 unblocked) ...

THE BUG: the token `dc0` meant TWO DIFFERENT CLOUDS depending on the file --
VR0's LIVE testcloud in scripts/lib-net.sh, VR1's FIRST DC in the NetBox
importer. One string, two clouds, one of them in production.

THE RULING (operator): the repo adopts the apex's names verbatim.
  vr0-dc0  VR0's DC0        the LIVE testcloud (a DIFFERENT region)
  vr1-dc0  VR1's FIRST  DC  GUA 2602:f3e2:f02::/48
  vr1-dc1  VR1's SECOND DC  GUA 2602:f3e2:f03::/48
Bare dc0/dc1/dc2 are now REJECTED LOUDLY everywhere.

D-119 COMPLETES D-117, it does not reverse it: it executes D-117's own amendment
across the three surfaces D-117 never touched. ZERO NetBox writes -- the apex was
already correct and self-consistent (MEASURED: f02::/48 -> vr1-dc0, f03::/48 ->
vr1-dc1); the REPO was the only surface out of step. Renaming the apex to match
the repo was considered and REJECTED (production IPAM write; VR1 would become the
only 1-indexed region; and vr1-dc1 would mean VR1's FIRST DC while vr0-dc1 means
VR0's SECOND).

THE PRIZE: the importer's DC->site map is now an IDENTITY -- there is no offset
table left to get wrong, and an assert enforces it. The original defect was
precisely a WRONG LOOKUP TABLE. The bug class is deleted, not defended.

TWO REAL BUGS the naming fix ALONE would NOT have closed (found by review sweep):

- BREAK-1: descriptions were built with f"VR1 {dc.upper()} ..." -- under D-119 that
  renders "VR1 VR1-DC0 provider-public" on all 36 prefixes. Same class as the
  original bug (deriving a label by munging a token), hidden in the description
  field where slug-focused review missed it. Now looked up from SITES[name].

- BREAK-2 (the important one): DC_GUA_PREFIX was NEVER cross-checked against --dc.
  `--dc vr1-dc0 DC_GUA_PREFIX=<f03>` was ACCEPTED: it writes the SECOND DC's GUA,
  carved with the FIRST DC's ULA nibble, scoped to the FIRST DC's site -- a
  silently mis-bound datacenter assembled from two disagreeing sources. Identity-
  mapping the slug leaves the ADDRESSING free-floating. Now guarded by EXPECTED_GUA.

ALSO: vdc1/vdc2 -> vvr1-dc0/vvr1-dc1 (D-114 amendment). D-114's own DR primitive is
`virsh destroy vdc1`, which read as "destroy VR1 DC1" while MEANING "destroy VR1
DC0". A mislabelled destroy command in a DR drill is not cosmetic. Neither VM is
built, so it is free. voffice1/Office1 KEEP their number (operator ruling).
Env var: DC1_/DC2_V4_SUPERNET -> VR1_DC1_V4_SUPERNET (both old names rejected).
rbd-mirror's --site-name aligned: `--dc vr1-dc0 --site-name dc1` was a re-created
two-namespace collision on one command line.

TESTS: dc-selector 21->30, prefixes-import 40->82 (identity invariant; EXPECTED_GUA
in BOTH mismatch directions; mismatched run writes NOTHING; matching pair still
succeeds; no munged description). GAUNTLET ALL GREEN (57). repo-lint 0 fail.
The old harnesses PINNED THE WRONG MAPPING -- they would have gone green while
enforcing the bug.

THE tofu apply IS NOT DONE -- IT IS GATED. Plan: 11 to add, 0 to change, 11 to
destroy (libvirt object names are ForceNew; moved{} makes the plan reviewable but
cannot suppress a replace). MEASURED SAFE: all 11 are EMPTY -- no guests, no
volumes, Stage 3 hasn't run. Office1's live objects are not in the plan.

DOCFIX-152: NetBox multi-DC/dual-stack import pipeline (gap #3 mechanism) ...

Adds netbox/dc-dc-prefixes-import.py, extending the v1 single-site IPv4-only
NetBox import to VR1's two-DC dual-stack model (D-101). DC1's v4 planes are
hardcoded (D-101: inherited from DC0 unchanged, this is decision text, not
an inference); DC2's v4 supernet, the org ULA /48, and the per-DC GUA carve
are all required env vars with no defaults, failing loud rather than
inventing any of them. 37/37 tests against a fake in-memory NetBox client
(no live NetBox reachable this session). Closes the tooling half of gap #3;
the real literals still need operator/NetBox assignment.
