# Profiles-for-Coder Coder templates for per-discipline dev environments (Default, 3D Printing, COBOL, Python, TTRPG, Web). Each environment is its own Coder **template** - not a dropdown inside one shared container, which is what this repo used to do and which didn't actually work. ## Layout ``` templates/ default/main.tf # Standard Default Dev 3d-printing/main.tf # 3D Printing & Engineering cobol/main.tf # COBOL Modern Mainframe python/main.tf # Python Engineering ttrpg/main.tf # TTRPG & Lore Building web/main.tf # Web Applications scripts/ cli-setup-wizard.sh # shared first-run wizard, see below install-skills.sh # shared Agent Skills installer, see below profile-templates/ # VS Code .code-profile exports, one per env extensions/ # Agent Skills bundles, installed per env (see below) ``` Each `templates//main.tf` is a complete, independent Coder template (agent, docker container, code-server, JetBrains). They're deliberately not built from a shared Terraform module - only their `locals` block differs (which profile file to read). The naming convention is `profiles-` (matches what `.gitea/workflows/coder-templates.yml` does automatically - see below). To push by hand: ```sh coder templates push profiles-default -d templates/default coder templates push profiles-3d-printing -d templates/3d-printing coder templates push profiles-cobol -d templates/cobol coder templates push profiles-python -d templates/python coder templates push profiles-ttrpg -d templates/ttrpg coder templates push profiles-web -d templates/web ``` ### How the VS Code profile gets applied `profile-templates/*.code-profile` is a real VS Code Profile export: a JSON file whose `settings` and `extensions` fields are themselves JSON-encoded strings (double/triple-nested). Each template's `main.tf` reads and decodes its matching file **at `terraform apply`/push time** (via `file()` + `jsondecode()`), then: - passes the extension ID list straight into the `code-server` module's `extensions` input, so code-server installs them on first boot - no interactive prompt needed, Terraform handles it declaratively; - writes the raw `settings.json` text (comments and all - VS Code tolerates JSONC) to `~/.local/share/code-server/User/settings.json` via a `coder_script`. This replaces the old approach, which downloaded a zip of this repo from Gitea *inside* the running container and tried to apply settings from `~/.local/share/profiles-cache/.json` - a path that never matched the actual `.code-profile` file extension, so settings never applied. That bug (plus the single shared container) is why "one container, many envs" never really worked. ### Bun Every template installs [Bun](https://bun.sh) via a `coder_script` (`curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash`) and hooks `~/.bun/bin` onto `PATH` in `~/.bashrc` (the installer doesn't reliably do this itself in a non-interactive/scripted shell). The CLI setup wizard below uses `bun install -g ` instead of `npm install -g ` for everything it installs. ### CLI setup wizard `scripts/cli-setup-wizard.sh` is dropped onto every workspace and hooked into `~/.bashrc`. It runs in every new interactive terminal - until the user finishes it - and offers to install + log into: - **GitHub Copilot CLI** (`bun install -g @github/copilot`, then `copilot login`) - **Google Antigravity CLI** (`curl -fsSL https://antigravity.google/cli/install.sh | bash`, binary `agy`) - **Claude Code CLI** (`bun install -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code`, then `claude`) It does **not** ask about VS Code extensions, since those are handled by Terraform (see above). Once the user confirms completion it writes a sentinel file (`~/.cache/coder-cli-wizard/done`) and stops prompting. It can always be re-run manually: `bash /opt/coder/cli-setup-wizard.sh --force`. ### `extensions/` directory -> Agent Skills `extensions/awesome-skills-plugin` and `extensions/custom-specialty-plugin` are **Agent Skills bundles** (`plugin.json` + `SKILL.md` files) - the old root `main.tf` copied this folder straight into code-server's VS Code extensions directory, which never worked since these aren't VS Code extension packages. Each template now runs `scripts/install-skills.sh` (via a `coder_script`, pulling a fresh zip of this repo from Gitea rather than embedding ~2.5MB into Terraform state) to install skills into all three AI CLIs' personal skills directories: | CLI | Skills directory | | --- | --- | | Claude Code | `~/.claude/skills//` | | GitHub Copilot CLI | `~/.copilot/skills//` | | Antigravity CLI | `~/.gemini/config/skills//` (per antigravity.google/docs/skills - some third-party docs disagree on this path, worth a spot-check on a live workspace) | Every environment gets the full `extensions/awesome-skills-plugin/skills/*` bundle. On top of that, whichever env has a matching entry in `extensions/custom-specialty-plugin/skills/` gets it installed too, set via the `SPECIALTY_SKILLS` env var passed to the script from each template's `install_skills` `coder_script`: - COBOL -> `cobol-teacher` - 3D Printing -> `openscad-parametric` - TTRPG -> `foundryvtt-modding` and `ttrpg-lore-weaver` - Default / Python / Web -> none (no matching specialty skill exists yet) ### Auto-provisioning (Gitea Actions) `.gitea/workflows/coder-templates.yml` keeps Coder in sync with this repo on every push to `main` that touches `templates/**`, `scripts/**`, or `profile-templates/**`: - **Add** a new `templates//` directory -> next push creates a new Coder template `profiles-` automatically. No workflow edits needed. - **Edit** an existing `templates//main.tf` (or a shared script/profile it references) -> next push updates that template with a new version. - **Remove** a `templates//` directory -> next push deletes `profiles-` from Coder. `coder templates delete` refuses if the template still has active workspaces, so this fails loudly instead of silently orphaning anyone's running workspace - that failure only shows up as a `::warning::` in the job log, it doesn't fail the whole run. It runs on the `ubuntu-latest` self-hosted runner already registered on this Gitea instance and installs the `coder` CLI itself via `coder.com/install.sh`. **One-time setup required** (not something this workflow can do for itself - needs a human with Coder access): 1. Create a Coder API token - ideally under a dedicated service account rather than a personal login, since this token can create/delete templates: ```sh coder login https://code.octoturge.com coder tokens create --name gitea-ci --lifetime 8760h ``` 2. In Gitea, go to this repo's **Settings -> Actions -> Secrets** (or the org-level equivalent to share across repos) and add: - `CODER_URL` = `https://code.octoturge.com` - `CODER_SESSION_TOKEN` = the token printed by step 1 Until those secrets exist, the workflow will run and fail cleanly at the `coder templates push` step rather than doing anything destructive.
