One boolean answered five unrelated questions: whether the pull-through cache stack runs, whether image pulls take the GHCR mirror, whether the docker data root may be wiped, plus runtime naming and inventory resolution. The workspace is the environment where those answers diverge — it simulates a developer machine on a real runner — so getting one of them meant misreporting where the suite runs and silently paying for the other four.
is_ci() and runs_on_github() stay facts about the machine. cache_stack_enabled, image_mirror_enabled and docker_root_ephemeral become decisions that default off those facts and can be declared explicitly, so an environment states what it wants. Every default reproduces the previous condition exactly, including the distinction the old mirror and wipe gates drew between a real runner and act.
73ae40585 got the cache stack by flipping the identity flag and lost the docker-root wipe with it; the workspace now declares all three capabilities instead. Pairs with 4c068d1cf, which makes the resulting stray bind sources harmless rather than fatal.

run_one.yml stats roles/<role>/files/test/test.sh and fails when it is absent, but the runner guide and the nfs-server TODO both said files/test.sh. The TODO was the costlier of the two: following it would have produced a script the asset check never finds. It now also names templates/test.env.j2, without which discover_cli_roles never picks the role up at all and the test stays silently unrun.

The runner command joins its siblings (dedicated, development) under
cli/administration/deploy; cli/deploy is gone. Makefile, docs and the
requirement links now point at the new path, PROJECT_ROOT climbs one
level further, and the unit tests moved along.

Add the i8* terminal aliases (make install-alias) and ai8* agent
conversation shortcuts (docs/.../agents/alias.md), move skill
distribution to the external INFINITO_SKILLS_REPOSITORY (make
install-skills), and add make cheat, make alias and make onboard. Introduce
custom.env operator overrides (win over defaults and handlers) and pin
INFINITO_ALIAS_MD / INFINITO_ALIAS_REPOSITORY / INFINITO_SKILLS_REPOSITORY
in default.env. Drop the in-repo skills-lock.json and its update-skills CI
job. AGENTS.md instructs agents to suggest the matching cli/prompt alias
when an operator writes something an alias covers. Lints enforce alias
sorting, i8/ai8 prefixes, no consonant clusters, full make-target
coverage, and terminal/agent shortcut non-overlap.
