Every cast verb was single-project, so "do this to the whole instance" was a
shell loop the operator wrote from memory — and the project they forgot is the
one that drifted. `cast diff --env prod --all` and `cast apply --env prod --all`
iterate the registry (#25) instead.
The bulk of this is a refactor: the apply/diff block in cli.ts was one long
inline body, and it is now `runProject` — checkout → secrets → desired →
bindings → live → diff → optionally apply. Both the single-repo path and the
`--all` loop call it, so there is exactly ONE implementation of what a project
run is. A second, parallel fleet path is how the two would drift, and drift is
the subject of this tool. `openCoolify` and the team assert are hoisted out of
it: one --env means one instance and one team, so asserting once still lands
strictly before the FIRST project's first read — the read is already the lie.
Fails closed on the aggregate. A registered project cast cannot reach is an
ERROR, never a skip: the clone failing, no manifest block for this environment,
an absent or undecryptable store, an absent Coolify project/environment, any
HTTP error. A silently skipped project reads exactly like a clean one — #12/#18/
#22 at fleet scale — so the report leads with COVERAGE (registered / read /
clean / drifted / unreachable), and:
diff --all 0 every registered project was READ, and every one is clean
1 every one was read, and at least one has drift
2 a project could not be read — outranking drift, because an
unreadable project is not a diff result but the absence of one
apply --all 0 every registered project applied; non-zero otherwise
`diff --all` runs every project to completion (stopping hides the drift in the
projects it never reached); `apply --all` STOPS at the first failure and names
what it applied and what it did not touch (continuing to mutate a fleet after an
unexplained failure is not a thing cast gets to do).
Two refusals. An empty or absent registry refuses rather than printing
"0 projects, clean" — an empty fleet reading as a clean fleet is the whole
failure this is against; the message distinguishes an unmigrated state file from
a registry pointed elsewhere and prints the YAML to write. And `--all` is
mutually exclusive with the repo positional and with every single-project
coordinate (--path, --project, --environment, --resource, --hostname-overlay):
each names ONE project's checkout, ONE project's Coolify name, ONE box's
resource names, and `--project X` across a fleet would point every project at
the same Coolify project — a false report on diff, and on apply every manifest
in the fleet written into one project.
Also: `projectsIn`'s doc-comment guessed that `[]` made a fleet verb over an
unmigrated state file "a clean no-op rather than a crash". It is precisely
backwards, and now says so. And the --path/--env-prod refusal is hoisted to the
CLI's up-front flag validation (one rule, one string, two call sites in
resolve.ts) — it used to be caught only by accident of resolveCheckout running
before the bindings load.
