The marker names the reason a role has no upstream homepage or demo video, and
it sat in meta/main.yml because a comment-only info.yml parses to an empty
document, which the schema lint rejected outright. So the exemption lived one
file away from the two fields it explains, and a reader looking for the video
found neither the field nor the reason it was missing.
The schema lint now accepts an empty document exactly when it carries the
marker, and that is what allows the move. The media lint reads the marker from
info.yml rather than main.yml, and its failure message names that same file, so
the fix it suggests lands where the absent field would have gone.
A hundred and two roles follow. Every occurrence was a standalone comment on
the second line of main.yml, directly under the document start, so the move is
a line delete and an insert at the same offset. Seventy-three roles already had
an info.yml and gain the line; twenty-nine get one whose whole content is the
document start and the marker. All hundred and two reasons carry over verbatim,
including the thirty-five bespoke ones.
Nothing downstream sees a change. Of the four readers of meta/info.yml, three
coerce a null parse through `or {}` behind an isinstance guard, and
utils/cache/applications.py skips a falsy parse before assignment, so
applications.<role>.info stays absent for the twenty-nine exactly as it was
while the file did not exist.

Rewrite all 254 role descriptions to a uniform noun-phrase schema
(function-first, no leading verb, no trailing period, <=120 chars) and
enforce it via the extended description lint. Rename 12 role README H1
titles for clarity (e.g. Backup Container to Local -> Backup Docker
Volumes, CSS Service -> Corporate Design, NGINX Legal -> Imprint) and
regenerate their Cosmos and Quick Setup sections. Overview table
regenerated.

Add cli.build.readme.overview (make readme-index / make docs) rendering a
roles overview in the root README: Name, Lifecycle, Homepage, Video,
Description, Integrated with, Install. New info-media lint requires
homepage + video in every invokable role's meta/info.yml (opt out via
'# nocheck: info-media' in meta/main.yml); backfilled 147 roles with
researched, adversarially-verified homepages and official videos.
Retire the 'unsupported' lifecycle value: fold it into 'eol' as a valid
live end-of-life status (shipped but untested/unmaintained) across the
stage lists, symbol glossary, allow-list lint and docs. Retag confluence,
jira, minio, phpldapadmin to eol and magento to pre-alpha.

Correct 'Birchenbach' -> 'Birkenbach' and normalise the non-breaking
hyphen (U+2011) to an ASCII hyphen in galaxy_info.author across 34
roles, so the author SPOT matches the regenerated README Credits.

* scripts/lint/autoformat.sh: rename AUTOFORMAT_PARALLEL to PARALLEL,
declare it at file start with default `true`; still env-overridable.
Reword the worker comment so the literal `# shellcheck` token no
longer appears at start-of-line and trips SC1072/SC1073.
* scripts/lint/galaxy.sh: drop the GALAXY_FATAL / GALAXY_NAMESPACE /
GALAXY_PARALLEL env vars (over-engineered for a single repo). Failure
is always fatal. NAMESPACE is an internal constant. Add the same
PARALLEL env var (default `true`, env-overridable); falsy demotes the
xargs fan-out to one worker.
* docs/contributing/environment/variables.md: collapse the four
AUTOFORMAT_*/GALAXY_* rows into one `PARALLEL` row covering both
consumers.
* docs/contributing/tools/make.md: refer to `PARALLEL=0` everywhere;
add the lint-galaxy parallelism note.
Plus working-tree drift across roles/, group_vars/, inventories/, and
tasks/ that accumulated from the make-test setup phase regenerating
generated artefacts during recent test runs.

Tooling integration
* add .markdownlint-cli2.jsonc, .ansible-lint, .ansible-lint-ignore
configs (permissive day-1: cosmetic rules disabled, semantic ones on)
* extend scripts/install/lint.sh with generic install_pip_pkg helper +
ensure_ansible_lint / ensure_galaxy_importer / ensure_markdownlint_cli2
ensure_* functions (pip / npm with sudo / --user / --break-system-packages
fallbacks). install_ansible_tools now also pulls ansible-lint and
galaxy-importer; new `markdown` install group.
* extend scripts/lint/ansible.sh to run ansible-lint after the existing
syntax-check.
* add scripts/lint/markdown.sh and scripts/lint/galaxy.sh runners. The
galaxy runner parallelizes via xargs (-P=$(nproc)), prints OK/FAIL per
role, and treats `bare-name dependency` errors as success since our
roles/ tree is not a Galaxy collection layout. All other Galaxy schema
errors still fail.
* Makefile: new lint-markdown and lint-galaxy targets, both wired into
`make lint`.
* CI: new workflows lint-markdown.yml and lint-galaxy.yml; lint-ansible.yml
now installs ansible-core + ansible-lint; ci-orchestrator wires both
new lint workflows into lint-gate.
Galaxy schema fixes
* shorten the canonical `galaxy_info.company` block from three lines to
two ("Kevin Veen-Birkenbach\nhttps://www.veen.world", 45 chars) so it
stays under Galaxy's hard 50-char limit. Updated everywhere: 229 role
meta/main.yml plus _CANONICAL_COMPANY in
tests/lint/repository/test_role_meta_main_galaxy_schema.py.
* shorten 19 over-long role descriptions to <=255 chars.
* add stub READMEs for sys-svc-compose-ca and sys-utils-service-loader.
Markdown baseline fixes
* markdownlint-cli2 --fix run repo-wide (formatting normalization
across CHANGELOG, role READMEs, docs).
* manual MD041 fixes: prepend H1 in 15 files (CHANGELOG, LICENSE,
TODO.md helpers, role README templates, etc.).
* MD025 / MD003 / MD001 / MD032 manual fixes for heading-style and
list-spacing edge cases.
* role README content polish: "## Single Point of Truth (SPOT)" headings
renamed to "## User data resolution" (D3 self-label rule).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* meta/main.yml: replace every prior platforms variant (Linux,
GenericLinux, Any, Archlinux+rolling/all, distro-specific pins) with
the canonical 5-distro list (ArchLinux, Debian, EL, Fedora, Ubuntu;
versions: [all] each).
* lint: merge tests/lint/ansible/roles/test_meta_company_canonical.py
into tests/lint/repository/test_role_meta_main_galaxy_schema.py and
add a parallel canonical-platforms exact-value check; one file walk
enforces both schema conformance and the two project canonical
exact-values (company block-scalar + platforms 5-distro list).
* roles/<role>/README.md: strip emojis from H1/H2 headings (per
readme_md.md role rule), normalize the Credits block to the canonical
wording (Author/Authors/Author Information aliased; canonical block
appended where absent).
* repo-wide: revert text-drift `GenericLinux` -> `Linux` in role
description fields, README body prose, vars, j2 templates, and the
Makefile (87 occurrences). The lint docstring keeps a single
historical mention.

Collapse the prior ~10 variants of galaxy_info.company (single-line,
multi-line single-quoted, multi-line double-quoted, escaped \n,
Unicode non-breaking hyphen, Birchenbach typo, block-scalar) into one
canonical block-scalar form across every roles/*/meta/main.yml that
declares the field:
company: |
Kevin Veen-Birkenbach
Consulting & Coaching Solutions
https://www.veen.world
Add tests/lint/ansible/roles/test_meta_company_canonical.py so future
drift fails CI immediately.

req-011 — descriptive role-level metadata
* Move logo / homepage / video / display out of
meta/main.yml.galaxy_info into a new project-owned
roles/<role>/meta/info.yml (file-root convention, no `info:` wrapper).
* 78 role meta/main.yml files migrated via ruamel round-trip
(key-order / quoting / inline-comments preserved). Roles with none
of the four fields are left untouched (no empty info.yml created).
* web-app-dashboard/lookup_plugins/docker_cards.py reads logo +
display from meta/info.yml; description / galaxy_tags continue to
come from galaxy_info (Galaxy-spec fields).
* docker_cards.py now routes ALL its file reads through the
process-wide caches: load_yaml_any for vars/main.yml,
meta/main.yml, meta/info.yml; read_text from utils.cache.files for
README.md. The orphan `import yaml` is gone.
New utils/cache/files (renamed from tests/utils/fs)
* The process-wide filesystem cache (read_text, iter_project_files,
iter_project_files_with_content, _all_project_files) is not
test-specific; it now lives under utils/cache/files.py next to the
other process-wide caches. 34 consumer imports rewritten across
tests/ and docs/. The empty tests/utils/ package is removed.
* New unit suite tests/unit/utils/cache/test_files.py — 12 cases
covering read_text, iter_project_files (skip-dirs, extensions,
exclude_tests, exclude_dirs, walk-cache invariants), the combined
iterator, non-UTF-8 silent skip, and _reset.
utils/cache redundancy cleanup
* applications.py + users.py + cli/create/inventory/services_disabler.py
drop their direct yaml.safe_load calls and their private
_load_yaml_mapping/_load_yaml_variant_list copies; everything routes
through utils.cache.yaml.load_yaml / load_yaml_any. The dead
utils.cache.base._load_yaml_mapping is removed.
* users.py:_load_store_users (tokens.yml read) likewise migrated.
* _load_yaml_variant_list moves out of base.py to applications.py
(its only consumer) and is renamed _load_variants_overrides — also
routes through the cached loader now.
* utils.cache.yaml._reset_cache_for_tests is renamed _reset (kept as
alias) for parity with the per-domain reset helpers.
* utils.cache.files grows a _reset() that clears its two LRU caches.
* utils.cache.__init__._reset_cache_for_tests now orchestrates ALL
six caches (applications, users, domains, base, yaml, files) so
tests get clean state across cache layers — needed because
applications/users now share the yaml cache and would otherwise
serve stale parses across reset boundaries.
* utils.cache.files imports PROJECT_ROOT from base instead of
redefining it.
* tests/unit/utils/cache/test_data.py + test_base.py: obsolete
TestLoadYamlMapping / TestLoadYamlVariantList classes deleted
(covered by test_yaml.py + test_variants.py).
* README.md updated for the new module list (files, yaml) and the
six-module orchestrator.
Galaxy schema lint
* tests/lint/repository/test_role_meta_main_galaxy_schema.py: split
galaxy_info field requirements into hard-required {author,
description, license} and soft-recommended {min_ansible_version,
platforms}. Soft-recommended -> emit a GitHub Actions ::warning::
annotation via utils.annotations.message.warning (titled
"meta/main.yml galaxy_info" with file= pointing at the offender),
no test failure. Rationale: min_ansible_version + platforms are
only enforced by Galaxy when *publishing*, which Infinito.Nexus
does not do.
* Galaxy lint goes green (was 226 offenders before req-011 +
license_url/repository/documentation strip; was 62 before this
relaxation; now 0 hard offenders, 62 soft warnings).
* roles/svc-opt-keyboard-color/meta/main.yml: backfill `license`
(only role missing the hard-required field).
New lint
* tests/lint/repository/test_role_meta_info.py — enforces meta/info.yml
file-root convention, the four-field allowlist (logo, homepage,
video, display), and shape (logo.class string, homepage/video
non-empty strings, display bool). Also fails if any
meta/main.yml.galaxy_info still carries one of the four migrated
fields.
Docs
* docs/contributing/design/services/layout.md: new section
"Descriptive Role-Level Metadata — meta/info.yml" with allowed-
fields table, optionality rule, materialised path, and consumer
note. File-Layout table grows the meta/info.yml row;
meta/main.yml row gets the explicit "no logo/homepage/video/display"
note. req-011 added to header and Related Pages.
* utils/cache/README.md: files.py + yaml.py rows added; six-module
reset orchestrator documented.
Validation
* Unit: 1573 passed.
* Lint: 55 passed.
* Integration: 161 passed (1 skipped) via pre-commit hook.

These three sub-keys lived under `galaxy_info:` purely as a workaround
because Galaxy silently ignores unknown keys (same pattern as the
`run_after` / `lifecycle` migration in req-010). The new lint
`tests/lint/repository/test_role_meta_main_galaxy_schema.py` rejects
them, and no consumer in `plugins/`, `utils/`, `cli/`, `filter_plugins/`
or `roles/` reads any of them, so the strip is safe.
Round-trip via ruamel.yaml so the remaining `galaxy_info:` block keeps
its key order, quoting style and inline comments.
224 files touched. Remaining lint offenders after this commit are still
present (`logo`, `homepage`, `video`, plus a handful of roles missing
required Galaxy fields like `min_ansible_version` / `platforms` /
`license`); those are a separate decision and not folded into this
change.

Single atomic landing for three back-to-back role-meta refactor requirements
(see docs/requirements/008-role-meta-layout.md, 009-per-role-networks-and-ports.md,
010-role-meta-runafter-lifecycle-migration.md).
req-008 — role meta layout
* Move every role's metadata under meta/<topic>.yml with file-root
convention (no wrapping key matching the basename):
- schema/main.yml + config/main.yml.credentials → meta/schema.yml
- users/main.yml → meta/users.yml
- config/main.yml.server → meta/server.yml
- config/main.yml.rbac → meta/rbac.yml
- config/main.yml.compose.services + every other top-level key
of config/main.yml inlined under <entity>.<key>
→ meta/services.yml
- config/main.yml.compose.volumes → meta/volumes.yml
* Drop the legacy schema/, users/, config/ directories from every role.
* meta/schema.yml: support nested credential keys, optional `default:`
field (Jinja literal, not rendered/validated/regenerated), implicit
`algorithm: plain`.
* Materialised paths drop the `compose.` prefix:
compose.services.<e>.<…> → services.<e>.<…>
compose.volumes.<k> → volumes.<k>
<former-top-level>.<…> → services.<entity_name>.<former-top-level>.<…>
* Update every Python consumer (utils/cache, utils/manager, utils/applications,
plugins/lookup, plugins/filter, cli/*) plus every Jinja template, vars/*.yml
and task file to the new paths.
* No legacy fallback. Repository-wide grep for `compose.services.` /
`compose.volumes.` / `schema/main.yml` / `users/main.yml` / `config/main.yml`
is empty outside docs/requirements/ and tasks/utils/migrate_meta_layout.py.
* Add tests/lint/repository/test_role_meta_layout.py guarding against the
old paths returning, and an explicit lint guard that meta/variants.yml
files do not carry a `compose:` wrapper.
req-009 — per-role networks/ports
* Move group_vars/all/08_networks.yml.defaults_networks.local.<role>.{subnet,
dns_resolver} into roles/<role>/meta/server.yml.networks.local.{subnet,
dns_resolver}.
* Delete group_vars/all/09_ports.yml entirely; ports now live on the
service entity that exposes them at
roles/<role>/meta/services.yml.<entity>.ports.{inter,local,public}.
* Rename + int-cast every former top-level `services.<entity>.port`
field to `services.<entity>.ports.inter` (single int).
* Always-category-keyed maps for ports.local / ports.public; relay
spans use {start, end} integers.
* Add PORT_BANDS map to group_vars/all/08_networks.yml — single source
of truth for the per-<scope>.<category> band ranges, consumed by both
the new CLI helpers and the lint test.
* New CLI helpers (cli meta ports suggest, cli meta networks suggest)
walk the live role tree gap-first then increment-fallback, with
deterministic output and non-zero exit on capacity overflow.
* cli create role consumes both helpers when scaffolding a new role.
* Lint extensions: bare-int port shape rejection, host-bound port
collision check (single ints + relay span integers, inter excluded),
band-membership check with documented allow-list for the legacy
web-app-bigbluebutton.bigbluebutton.local.http: 48087 entry.
req-010 — run_after / lifecycle migration
* Move galaxy_info.run_after and galaxy_info.lifecycle out of
meta/main.yml into meta/services.yml.<primary_entity>.{run_after,
lifecycle}; <primary_entity> is the value returned by
get_entity_name(role_name).
* For multi-entity roles whose primary entity has no compose service
(web-app-bluesky → bluesky, web-app-matrix → matrix, desk/dev/drv/
gen roles), create a dedicated metadata-only top-level entry under
<primary_entity>.
* Introduce utils/roles/meta_lookup.py with get_role_run_after /
get_role_lifecycle that resolve <primary_entity> once and read from
meta/services.yml; degrade gracefully when meta/services.yml is
absent OR the field is absent; raise MetaServicesShapeError when the
file exists but is malformed.
* Update every consumer (utils/service_registry, utils/invokable,
cli/meta/applications/resolution/run_after/__main__, cli/meta/roles/
lifecycle_filter/__main__, cli/meta/applications/resolution/combined,
cli/build/{tree,graph,role_include}, cli/deploy/development/{common,
init,deps,deploy}, plugins/filter/canonical_domains_map, etc.) to
use the helper.
* Lint guards: no run_after/lifecycle in meta/main.yml; lifecycle
values restricted to {planned,pre-alpha,alpha,beta,stable,deprecated};
run_after/lifecycle never on a non-primary entity; empty run_after
lists rejected.
Also folded into this change set
* services_disabler now writes `services.<svc>.{enabled,shared}` into
host_vars instead of the old `compose.services.<svc>.{...}` path; the
discover/find pair walks meta/services.yml and only treats entries
carrying enabled/shared/provides as provider declarations (so
metadata-only entries from req-010 do not create spurious provider
rows).
* service_registry skips `run_after` deps whose target was filtered
out via SERVICES_DISABLED instead of failing the whole load.
* cli/mirror/resolver and cli/create/inventory/mirror_overrides emit/
consume the new applications.<role>.services.<svc>.image shape
(mirror.md updated to match).
* utils/domains/list.build_applications_from_roles now reads
meta/server.yml directly (it had been silently returning {} since
config/main.yml stopped existing).
* utils/roles/resource_validation.filter_roles_by_min_storage reads
meta/services.yml.<entity>.min_storage instead of the legacy
compose.services path.
* web-app-bluesky pre-clones the social-app build context BEFORE
sys-svc-compose so the build context is on disk by the time
sys-stk-front-proxy/tasks/main.yml flushes the docker build handler.
* 4 meta/variants.yml files (svc-ai-ollama, web-app-phpmyadmin,
web-app-wordpress, web-app-keycloak) lose their `compose: services:`
wrapper so deep-merge over meta/services.yml lands on the new
file-root shape.
Validation
* Unit tests: 1571 passed.
* Lint tests: 50 passed.
* Integration tests: 161 passed (1 skipped).
* Full-cycle fresh-purged-apps deploy succeeded for the 8-app validation
set: web-app-{nextcloud,wordpress,yourls,bigbluebutton,bluesky,gitea,
discourse,mattermost}.
