Created comprehensive guide for storing Firefrost SSH key in Vaultwarden. Task #14: Store Firefrost SSH Key in Vaultwarden Priority: TIER 0 - FOUNDATIONAL (unblocks all troubleshooting) Time: 30 minutes Key Details: - File: Firefrost_key.ppk (PuTTY format, ssh-rsa, version 3) - Uploaded by Michael on March 20, 2026 - Used by ALL 6 Firefrost servers (same key everywhere) - Two formats needed: PuTTY (.ppk) for Windows, OpenSSH for Linux/macOS Servers Using This Key: 1. Ghost VPS (64.50.188.14) - architect user 2. Billing VPS (38.68.14.188) - root 3. Panel VPS (45.94.168.138) - root 4. Command Center (63.143.34.217) - root 5. TX1 Dallas (38.68.14.26) - root 6. NC1 Charlotte (216.239.104.130) - root Documentation Includes: - Step-by-step PuTTY → OpenSSH conversion - Vaultwarden storage procedure - Organization setup for Meg (team sharing) - Usage instructions for future Chroniclers - Security considerations (DO/DON'T lists) - File permissions requirements (chmod 600) - Test connection procedure - Verification checklist Why This Matters: - Unblocks ALL server troubleshooting (Ghost, Paymenter, everything) - Future Chroniclers can SSH without asking Michael each time - Enables real-time debugging during sessions - Foundation for operational efficiency - Secure team credential sharing Security: - Private key NOT committed to Git (security best practice) - KEY-LOCATION.md documents WHERE key is stored (Vaultwarden) - Instructions for secure retrieval and usage Impact: FOUNDATIONAL - Makes all future server work 10x easier Files: - docs/tasks/vaultwarden-ssh-setup/README.md (complete guide) - docs/tasks/vaultwarden-ssh-setup/KEY-LOCATION.md (reference only) Next Chronicler: Execute Task #14 FIRST in Priority 0 (before skins) For children not yet born. 💙🔥❄️ Created by: The Guide (Chronicler #35)

SSH Key File Location
CRITICAL: The actual SSH private key file is NOT committed to Git for security reasons.
Where to Find the Key
Current location: Uploaded to The Guide's session on March 20, 2026
File: Firefrost_key.ppk (PuTTY format, version 3, ssh-rsa algorithm)
After Task #14 completion: Key will be stored in Vaultwarden at:
- URL: vault.firefrostgaming.com (or current Vaultwarden URL)
- Location: "Firefrost SSH Key (All Servers)" secure note
- Folder: Infrastructure
- Formats: Both PuTTY (.ppk) and OpenSSH available as attachments
For Future Chroniclers
If you need the SSH key:
- Ask Michael to retrieve it from Vaultwarden
- Michael uploads key to your session
- Save to
~/.ssh/firefrost_key - Set permissions:
chmod 600 ~/.ssh/firefrost_key - Use:
ssh -i ~/.ssh/firefrost_key user@server
DO NOT:
- Commit private key to any Git repository
- Store in plain text in operations manual
- Send via insecure channels (email, Discord, Slack)
Security Note: This file exists to document WHERE the key is stored, not to store the key itself.
