If I go to https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:NovaInstance, choose any project, no instances are ever shown, despite logging out and in again. I assume this is the same issue as before that was fixed by restarting … Keystone? Nutcracker?

Event Timeline
After promoting "Tim Landscheidt (Test)" to a projectadmin in Toolsbeta, that user can see the instance list for Toolsbeta. The user "Tim Landscheidt" still sees no instances, which makes me think that it is user-dependent.
Huh. Did you do this in separate browsers or incognito mode or something? If so, tried clearing your cookies?
I did log in as "Tim Landscheidt (Test)" in an incognito window (Firefox; "private window"?).
For "Tim Landscheidt", I just now deleted all cookies for wikitech.wikimedia.org, logged in again, but – as "Tim Landscheidt" – the list in https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:NovaInstance is still empty.
"Tim Landscheidt" (after deleting all cookies for wikitech.wikimedia.org) still sees no list of instances, but now "Tim Landscheidt (Test)" (in a private window) doesn't either.
@scfc, is this still happening for you? (If so, that's good, because I don't have any other test cases)
Yes, it is. After deleting all cookies for wikitech.wikimedia.org and logging in again, "Tim Landscheidt" still cannot see any instances and "Tim Landscheidt (Test)" in a private window neither.
Are you able to view things as you'd expect within Horizon? Or is your project membership broken there as well?
Also, what does your project filter look like? Are you still able to select projects that you belong to?
ok -- I'm still interested in the answers to the above questions but I've also put a small live-hack in place. Does it affect behavior?
I have tried https://horizon.wikimedia.org/ just now for the first time, and the list of instance there is perfectly fine.
In wikitech, yes, I was able to select the projects I belong to in the project filter as usual. Only the section for the selected projects was (and is) empty:
This didn't change after deleting the cookies and logging in again, so I'm afraid your live-hack didn't resolve it yet :-).

@scfc, there is yet another patch in place. If the problem is still present can you ping me on IRC so that I can do a bit of interactive debugging?
The above patch plus a complete purge of keystone tokens, wikitech tokens, and a restart of memcached seems to have fixed things.
I presume that we still have some broken cache-invalidation logic someplace that a few lucky users managed to step in :(
Unfortunately, that didn't last long :-) (or I tested only the "toolsbeta" part of it a few hours ago).
When I delete wikitech cookies, log in and go to https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:NovaInstance, I can select the project filter to "toolsbeta" (or "shinken" or "project-proxy") and the list shows all instances for this project, but if I choose "tools" (or "bastion") the list is empty. (The list is also empty for "wikivoyage", but that project does not have any instances in reality as well.)
ok... I don't know what's going on now, but ping be on irc sometime and I'll turn on some logfiles.

So... once again I believe this to be resolved (mostly because I reverted the patches that most likely caused it.)
Hurray! … in the sense that it works now for both tools and toolsbeta for "Tim Landscheidt" :-).
I'm hesitant to close this task as resolved because I don't understand what the cause of the problem is and if that has been fixed for good.
I'm pretty sure the cause of the problem was my bad cache-refresh code, which is now reverted.
