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.

The role was a scaffold: tasks/main.yml was a two-line comment, there was no
compose.yml.j2, no domains.yml, no volumes.yml, no env.j2. It deployed nothing
while carrying a Playwright spec and two matrix variants.
It also described the wrong project. meta/main.yml and meta/info.yml pointed at
jaywink/socialhome -- a Django ActivityPub hub. The target here is
social-home-io/socialhome: created 2026-04-21, MPL-2.0, aiohttp + SQLite +
Preact, federating peer-to-peer over Ed25519/WebRTC rather than ActivityPub.
Different codebase, no fork relationship.
It turns out to be the simplest web-app in the repo. One published multi-arch
image (ghcr.io/social-home-io/socialhome:2026.6.16, pinned), no Postgres, no
Redis, no queue, no worker, no collectstatic -- SQLite in one volume, one port,
migrations applied in-process at startup.
Two things the source forced that reading the README would not have:
- [standalone].external_url is reachable only through the TOML file, never
through SH_* env (config.py:238-261). Without it routes/pairing.py answers
422 NOT_CONFIGURED and federation pairing is dead, so the role renders a
config and mounts it as type: config.
- provision_admin() runs from SH_ADMIN_PASSWORD but never calls
mark_complete(), so / keeps serving the setup wizard instead of the login
form -- upstream's own docstring claims otherwise. 01_setup.yml closes it
with an idempotent POST to /api/setup/standalone.
No SSO sidecar, deliberately, against the pgadmin model this otherwise copies:
oauth2-proxy would redirect POST /federation/inbox and /api/pairing/accept to
Keycloak and break the one thing the software exists for.
Verified against the real image rather than reasoned about. The http_status
probe's exact argv ran inside the container and returned 0. /healthz answers
with the byte-for-byte shape the spec asserts. The setup POST returns 201 then
409 and flips setup_required true -> false, which is the whole justification
for 01_setup.yml existing. [standalone].external_url lands in the inbox_url of
POST /api/pairing/initiate. The container runs as uid 10001, matching
meta/users.yml.
Both persona blocks are proven, not assumed: biber gets 401 from the token
endpoint, and the 97 static files contain zero occurrences of logout / sign out
/ abmelden, so utils/logout.js has nothing to click. Injecting a control the
way web-app-prometheus does was rejected -- that model points its button at
OIDC.CLIENT.LOGOUT_URL, which does not exist for a role with no OIDC.
swarm stays disabled for the first round. The orchestrator chains
swarm -> compose -> host under mode_fail_fast, and sequencing measures serial
at 198 jobs, so a red swarm job here would skip 92 unrelated jobs and leave 85
roles untested. Compose-only drops that to 10. Flip it once compose is green.
Adversarial review caught five defects before this landed, three of them
certain rather than likely:
- SOCIALHOME_INTERNAL_URL hardcoded 127.0.0.1, which sys-svc-container rewrites
to the bridge gateway whenever DOCKER_IN_CONTAINER is set -- from inside the
Ansible container that address is the Ansible container, so both setup tasks
would have burned five minutes of retries and failed the play.
- SH_WEBRTC_STUN_URL sat outside the coturn guard while the TURN pair sat
inside it. Upstream reads by env PRESENCE, so the empty value would have
beaten the in-app default and left WebRTC with no STUN at all.
- meta/csp.yml whitelisted blob: on worker-src. The bundle registers no service
worker and constructs no Worker; the only blob of JavaScript is an audio
worklet, and worklet modules load under script-src. Voice recording would
have died with the app's own "Audio processing unavailable".
- tasks/main.yml hand-rolled meta: flush_handlers instead of including
sys-svc-compose's finalize.yml, which silently skipped utils/post_deploy.yml.
- 01_setup.yml was gated on IS_STACK_HOST but not run_once, so a three-manager
swarm would fire three concurrent setup POSTs at one ingress port.
TODO.md carried a claim that steered the CSP design and was simply false --
that img-src is not a directive csp_filters.py emits. It appends
"img-src * data: blob:" unconditionally at line 383.
lifecycle: alpha puts the role in the CI deploy matrix before it has ever run
anywhere, deliberately: the first CI round is its first execution. README and
TODO say so rather than claiming a maturity it does not have.
Still unverified: no browser has enforced the CSP, the swarm path was only
rendered, TURN against a real coturn is untested, and arm64 has not been
exercised. TODO.md lists them.

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.
