jackos1998 a7ea91f529 docs: Document the boxes
Add a top-level `README.md` mapping the boxes and per-machine docs under
`docs/boxes/` (grouped `colony/`, `home/`, `misc/`), one file per host, VM and
container documenting role, services and networking with source pointers.

Also point `AGENTS.md` at the new docs.

britway

A Vultr VPS in London (lon1) acting as a network edge node: the Tailscale control plane, an exit node, and a BGP speaker in the AS211024 mesh.

  • Source: nixos/boxes/britway/ (default.nix, bgp.nix, nginx.nix, tailscale.nix)
  • Internal domain: lon1.int.nul.ie

Role

  • Headscale (tailscale.nix) — the self-hosted Tailscale control server (hs.nul.ie) the rest of the boxes log into.
  • Tailscale node — advertises itself as an exit node and advertises the tailnet routes, so tailnet clients can egress / reach internal prefixes via britway.
  • BGP (bgp.nix) — part of the AS211024 L2 VXLAN mesh (my.vpns.l2) alongside estuary, river and stream.
  • nginx (nginx.nix) — reverse proxy / web front-end with ACME certs.

Networking

  • vultr assignment on the provider interface; as211024 on the mesh.
  • A veth0/tailscale0 setup with SNAT so tailnet traffic egresses via the VPS public IP.
