⏺ This PR fixes the upload-url POST endpoint which was returning "Unable to locate credentials" when trying to access S3. Two root causes:

  1. EKS Pod Identity was never wired updev.tfvars and prod.tfvars were missing the cluster_name, namespace, and service_account_name variables that the pod_identity module needs to create the association. The PR adds those values.

  2. vars.auto.tfvars had the wrong namespace — it used tm-be-zone-service instead of be-zone-service, and it was also defining secrets config that conflicted with the approach below.

  3. Secrets Manager module replaced with data sources — The old module "secrets-manager" would try to create secrets that already exist, causing failures. The PR swaps it for data "aws_secretsmanager_secret" lookups (for db and slack) that just reference the existing secrets by name, then feeds their ARNs into the secret-iam module.

Net effect: a Terraform config fix so the service's pods actually get the IAM credentials they need for S3 access in both dev and prod.

how risky is this?

Low-to-moderate risk. Here's the breakdown:

Low risk parts:

  • Adding cluster_name, namespace, service_account_name to tfvars — these are additive, they just fill in missing variables that the pod_identity module already expected
  • Removing the unused secrets variable definition — cleanup, no runtime impact
  • Clearing vars.auto.tfvars — removes the wrong namespace that was likely causing issues anyway

The one thing to watch:

  • Swapping module "secrets-manager"data sources. This means Terraform will destroy the module resources from its state on the next apply. If those secrets were actually managed by this Terraform workspace, destroying the module could delete the secrets themselves (despite recovery_window_in_days). However, the PR description says the module "would fail trying to recreate existing secrets," which implies the secrets were created outside this TF workspace and the module was never successfully applied — in which case there's nothing to destroy and this is safe.

Worth confirming before merging:

  • Run terraform plan with both dev.tfvars and prod.tfvars and verify the plan doesn't show any destroy actions on secrets-manager resources. If the module never successfully created them, the plan should be clean.

Not risky at all:

  • No application code changes
  • No migration changes
  • Failure mode is obvious (TF plan will show exactly what happens)

should we actually be doing that? I don't trust the description.

⏺ Good instinct. Let me look at the actual code to verify the claims.

Clears vars.auto.tfvars - Removes the wrong namespace and old secret definitions\n\n4. Removes the secrets variable from variables.tf - No longer needed\n\n### Terraform Backend Configuration\n\nNo backend is configured in tf/regional. There is no:\n- backend.tf file\n- terraform block with backend configuration\n- .terraform/ directory or .terraform.lock.hcl files locally\n\nThis means terraform state is stored locally (not recommended for shared infrastructure).\n\n### Other Terraform Configurations in the Repo\n\ntf/main/iam-stg.tf and tf/main/iam-prd.tf:\n- Create the roles that tf/regional assumes (zone-service-trellis-dev and zone-service-trellis-prod)\n- Include strict IAM conditions that verify:\n - EKS cluster ARN\n - kubernetes-namespace = "be-zone-service" (the CORRECT namespace)\n - kubernetes-service-account = "zone-service"\n - Principal ARN\n\n**.devops/terraform/secrets/:**\n- Creates AWS Secrets Manager secrets with the naming pattern: be/{env}/zone-service/{key}\n- Currently has db and slack secrets for all environments\n\n### Summary of Issues\n\n| Issue | Current State | Problem |\n|-------|---------------|---------|\n| Pod Identity Association | Never created | Missing cluster_name/namespace in dev/prod tfvars |\n| Namespace Value | "tm-be-zone-service" in vars.auto.tfvars | Wrong - should be "be-zone-service" |\n| Secrets Manager Module | Tries to CREATE secrets | Secrets already exist elsewhere with different names |\n| IAM Trust Policy | Requires "be-zone-service" namespace | Pod Identity uses wrong namespace from vars.auto.tfvars |\n| Terraform State | Local state (no backend configured) | Not scalable for shared infrastructure |\n\n### Data Source Approach Assessment\n\nThe proposed data source approach (aws_secretsmanager_secret) is correct because:\n1. It looks up existing secrets rather than trying to create them\n2. It expects secrets to already exist (which they do, created by .devops/terraform/secrets/)\n3. It's appropriate for a multi-account setup where secrets are managed separately\n4.

⏺ Here's what I found after looking at the actual code:

The PR description is mostly accurate, but has a naming nuance worth understanding.

Namespace: legit fix

The wrong namespace (tm-be-zone-service) in vars.auto.tfvars is confirmed bad. Every other config — k8s/base/kustomization.yaml, k8s/clusters/dev/, k8s/clusters/prod/, and the IAM trust policies in tf/main/iam-stg.tf and tf/main/iam-prd.tf — all use be-zone-service. So yes, the pod identity association was broken.

Pod identity: legit fix

cluster_name was genuinely missing from both tfvars files, so the pod_identity module couldn't create the association. This explains the credentials error.

Secrets module → data sources: this is where to look carefully

The secrets are actually created in .devops/terraform/secrets/secrets.tf with a naming pattern like be/dev/zone-service/db. But the new data sources look up:

data "aws_secretsmanager_secret" "db" {
  name = "${local.application}/db"    # resolves to "be-zone-service/db"
}

That's be-zone-service/db, not be/dev/zone-service/db. So the question is: does a secret named be-zone-service/db actually exist? If not, terraform plan will fail on the data source lookup.

Check k8s/base/externalsecrets.yaml — it references be-zone-service/db and be-zone-service/slack as the secret names the pods actually consume. So there may be two sets of secrets (one per the .devops/terraform/ pattern, one matching the k8s external-secrets pattern), or the naming may have been fixed at some point.

My recommendation

Before approving, ask the PR author to share the output of terraform plan for both dev and prod. The pod identity and namespace fixes are clearly correct, but the data source secret names need to resolve to actual secrets in AWS. A plan output would confirm that instantly.

Do we need the secrets module thing? Can we not do that? tf plan says we are going to delete secrets which is scary

Looking at the code, the secret-iam module just creates IAM policies granting the service permission to read specific secrets. Let me check if that's already handled elsewhere.

⏺ Here's the situation:

The secret-iam module creates an IAM role that grants read access to the secrets. But look at tf/main/iam-stg.tf and tf/main/iam-prd.tf — the main account IAM roles only attach S3 and SQS policies. There's no secrets policy attached there. So the question is: does the pod actually need the secret-iam role to read secrets?

Looking at externalsecrets.yaml — it uses a SecretStore with no explicit IAM role configured. It's relying on the pod's own identity (from pod_identity) to read secrets. But the pod_identity module only grants sts:AssumeRole + sts:TagSession to the main account role — it doesn't grant secretsmanager:GetSecretValue.

So something does need to grant secrets access. The question is whether it's already working some other way (e.g. the external-secrets operator has its own service account with secrets access), or if the secret-iam module output (secrets_read_role_arn) is actually consumed somewhere.

That said — you're right to be scared about terraform plan showing secret deletions. If the secrets-manager module previously created those secrets and they're in state, removing the module will destroy them. Even with a 7-day recovery window, that's a production outage while secrets are being recovered.

My suggestion: Instead of the data source approach in the PR, just rip out both the secrets-manager and secret-iam modules entirely, and remove the output. Then do a terraform state rm for the secrets-manager resources so Terraform forgets about them without deleting them from AWS. The PR should only contain the pod identity fix (which is the actual bug).

Does the secrets_read_role_arn output get consumed anywhere? That would determine if you can safely drop secret-iam too.

we don't know. We just want to fix the pod identity thing (we can't contact s3) without exploding the world. TF plan is in a comment on the PR

⏺ Yeah, do not merge this as-is. The plan confirms it will delete the actual secrets in both accounts:

  • be-zone-service/db and be-zone-service/slack in prod (253490757713)
  • be-zone-service/db and be-zone-service/slack in dev (149536459603)

These are the same secrets that externalsecrets.yaml references. Deleting them would break the service.

The safest path: scope the PR down to only the pod identity fix. Leave the secrets-manager module completely untouched. That means:

  1. Keep vars.auto.tfvars with the secrets map (just fix the namespace)
  2. Keep the secrets-manager module and secret-iam module in main.tf as-is
  3. Keep the secrets variable in variables.tf
  4. Only add the missing cluster_name to dev/prod tfvars and fix the namespace

Want me to push a revised version of the PR that does just the pod identity fix and nothing else?

yes, push a revised version.

⏺ Now let me verify the diff looks right — only pod identity fix, no secrets changes.

⏺ Clean diff. The changes are now:

  1. dev.tfvars / prod.tfvars — add cluster_name, namespace, service_account_name
  2. vars.auto.tfvars — remove namespace and service_account_name (they now live in per-env tfvars with correct values)
  3. No changes to main.tf or variables.tf — secrets-manager module untouched

The new plan should show only:

  • Replace: pod_identity association (to fix namespace + add cluster_name)
  • No deletes — secrets-manager module is untouched

You'll want to wait for the new Scalr plan comment to confirm zero destructive changes before merging.

I think we want

namespace = "be-zone-service" service_account_name = "zone-service"

to be in the common place, no?

You're right — those are the same in both dev and prod, so they belong in vars.auto.tfvars.

The PR description should probably be updated to match the new scope. Want me to do that?
