reconcileDelete asked Get first and dropped the finalizer only on not-found, so a permanent Get retried forever: a KVM host removed from the config, or a providerID the provider cannot resolve, left the Proxy in Terminating with no way out. It now tries Delete anyway, which is idempotent and can still finish where Get cannot converge, and releases the object when that succeeds. crawl.example.com/skip-cleanup abandons the instance for the cases that stay stuck, such as revoked credentials. It is checked before the provider lookup, so it also frees a Proxy whose provider is gone from the config. In the KVM provider, Delete over an unconfigured host is now a no-op success, mirroring removeVolumes over a missing pool. Get keeps failing permanently there on purpose: the live path reads not-found as "rebuild it", so a typo in hosts must not look like a missing VM.

Execution: fix the five code-review findings on feat/kvm-provider
Plan: docs/plans/2026-09-10-2222-kvm-review-fixes.md
- Step 0 — Save plan into the repo
- Step 1 — Unwedge deletion (finding 1)
- Step 2 — Validate names that become identifiers (finding 2)
- Step 3 — Read the SSH material lazily (finding 3)
- Step 4 — Guest agent via vendor-data script (findings 4 and 5)
- Step 5 — Validate, record, push
Step 0 — plan committed
Copied out of ~/.claude/plans/ and committed alone before touching code, as
the repo's plan rules require.
Step 1 — Unwedge deletion
Three changes, in the order the bug unfolds.
reconcileDelete calls Get first and only drops the finalizer when it
answers not-found, so any permanent error there retried forever. It now
switches on the class: a permanent Get still calls Delete, which is
idempotent, and releases the object when that succeeds. Polling a Get
that cannot converge was the wedge; Delete is the only call that can
still make progress.
crawl.example.com/skip-cleanup: "true" abandons the instance and removes
the finalizer. It is checked before the provider lookup, which also
frees a Proxy whose provider was deleted from the config — a second wedge
sitting three lines above the reported one, with the same shape. No
EventRecorder exists on the reconciler and none was added, so the
abandonment is an Info log; docs/architecture.md already records that
decision for the whole controller.
In the KVM provider, Delete for a providerID naming an unconfigured host
now logs and returns success. The precedent is two functions further down:
removeVolumes treats a missing pool the same way, with a comment saying
outright that refusing "would pin the Proxy's finalizer".
Get deliberately still fails permanently for that case. Making it
answer not-found would have been a one-line fix for the wedge, but the live
reconcile path reads not-found as "the VM is gone" and rebuilds it
elsewhere. A typo in hosts would then quietly duplicate every Proxy on
that host, with the originals still running where GC cannot see them, since
ListByTag only sweeps configured hosts. The asymmetry is now pinned by a
test that asserts both halves at once.
Worth noting: the review filed this as a KVM finding, but the fix is mostly
in the controller, because KVM is the only provider that resolves a
providerID segment against operator config at all. GCP and Kubernetes hand
the lookup to the backend, which answers 404 for a retired zone or a deleted
namespace, so they reach not-found and release on their own. Anything else
that classifies permanently on the delete path — revoked RBAC on the
Kubernetes provider is the realistic one — was equally stuck before this
step and is what the annotation is really for. The KVM table case
"host not configured" moved out of TestDelete_errors into its own named
test, since it is no longer an error.
