The hlth-webserver health service HEAD-requests the deploy's *.infinito.localhost vhosts, but the guide boot container has no resolver mapping for them (no CoreDNS sidecar, no dev-flow dns setup), so the service failed every start and burned 25x60s retries. Install libnss-myhostname on the apt branch and ensure the myhostname NSS module is listed in nsswitch.conf on every distro; it resolves any *.localhost name to loopback where the openresty vhosts answer.

Removing the baked .env forces cli.meta.env to regenerate inside the
container; with GITHUB_ACTIONS=true its on-GHA guard aborts (exit 2) unless
GITHUB_REPOSITORY_OWNER / GITHUB_REPOSITORY is set, so .env is never written
and compose-up dies with KeyError: INFINITO_CONTAINER. Forward the owner and
repository (already resolved on the runner) into each per-distro container.

Move the operator cheatsheet's copy-paste prompts into per-workflow i8- skills
that each route to their authoritative procedure doc, and reduce the cheatsheet
to a table index plus a usage paragraph, enforced by a new lint. Add skills for
develop, test, quality, refactor, the debug and requirement flows, and
commit / pull-request / push-trigger-pull; rename the iteration skills to
i8-iterate-* and rename the index to i8-help. Wire the active-listening,
dialectic, and robot skills into the flows for clarification, uncertain root
causes, and autonomous execution. Drop the Infinito-specific agent aliases
(alias.md, INFINITO_ALIAS_MD, the make alias agent section, and the two alias
tests); terminal aliases stay.

The prebuilt CI image ships a .env generated at build time with the debian
default, and load.sh only regenerates when it is missing, so every distro's
DinD ran with debian's INFINITO_CONTAINER and config regardless of the image.
Remove the baked .env before make compose-up so it is regenerated from the
container's INFINITO_DISTRO, restoring the per-distro behaviour the old
matrix flow had on a fresh checkout.

The host-mode guide booted the pkgmgr distro image with --entrypoint
/sbin/init, but that image ships no init at all (it is a package-manager CLI
tool), so runc rejected the container with exit 127. Install systemd in a
throwaway container, commit an image that carries /sbin/init, and boot that
instead. Also read the post-loop readiness state into a variable so a
degraded systemd is not masked by pipefail.

The readiness check piped systemctl is-system-running into grep. Because
is-system-running exits non-zero on a degraded system (only running returns
0) and the script runs under set -o pipefail, the pipeline propagated that
non-zero even when grep matched, so the loop never broke and centos, which
settles at degraded with one failed unit, always exited 1 regardless of the
timeout. Read the state into a variable and match it, so a degraded system
is accepted.

The per-distro DNS Docker-in-Docker container runs on an overlay rootfs, so
the inner daemon's default overlayfs snapshotter fails to mount overlay on
overlay ("invalid argument") and docker compose up never brings coredns and
infinito up. Install fuse-overlayfs and write /etc/docker/daemon.json with
storage-driver fuse-overlayfs plus containerd-snapshotter disabled before
starting docker, mirroring the swarm node daemon.json that already runs this
way in CI.

parallel.sh already passes INFINITO_PULL_POLICY=always into the DinD

Move the inline fork-prerequisites result assertion out of the
fork-prereqs-ready job into scripts/github/gate/fork_prereqs.sh (result
passed via the RESULT env var; the job now checks out the repo).
The staged diff also drops the code-quality-gate and test-install-gate

test-install-make, test-install-pkgmgr) directly into the done job's needs,
which still hard-fails on any upstream failure or cancellation.

Collapse the per-distro DNS test matrix into a single job that runs each
triggered distro in its own systemd Docker-in-Docker container, built from
that distro's prebuilt CI image, all in parallel. Each container installs
and starts a local docker daemon, brings the dev stack up and runs the
existing dns.sh suite unchanged. The local daemon makes the dev compose
bind-mounts resolve against the baked repo, and the per-container network
namespace keeps the static CoreDNS IP and subnet from colliding across
distros. GITHUB_ACTIONS=true and INFINITO_BUILD=0 pin the deploy to the
pull-and-run path (no cache stack, no local image build); dig is installed
unconditionally so arch keeps the host-query assertions.

Back to the pre-swarm-nfs-fix baseline:
- 5c2c8f531 + 985ec7eab: the swarm writer-quiesce DR drill. Deep-dive
attribution of CI run 29715516546 found it the dominant failure source
(17 of 23 jobs): [9b/9] handed-off generation mismatch, [6/9] quiesce
stack-rm network race, [4/9] remote-2-local pull stall, compose discourse
restore duplicate key.
- d6f980574: openproject swarm ingress to web:8080. Carried a leaking
proxy_internal_port lookup (no per-app default) that broke the seaweedfs
dependency front-proxy ('Key web not found'); the bypass-the-Apache-proxy
approach was never verified against downloads/X-Sendfile.
- 1dd153bad: xwiki replicas:1 + mem 3g. Did not resolve the xwiki superadmin
failure (still red in run 29715516546), so it is unverified.
Re-approach each from a clean baseline.

Follow-up corrections to b449f8157 (swarm DR drill):
- export test.env in 06/07 via set -a so the child db restore/probe
scripts inherit BKP_TEST_DATABASES_CSV and BKP_TEST_RESTORE_BIN
instead of aborting at their :? guards before any restore runs
- move db_probe.sh/db_restore.sh into a db/ subfolder (probe.sh,
restore.sh) and update all callers, so they stop tripping the
prefix-grouped-files structure lint
- define TEST_E2E_SWARM_DRILL in group_vars/all and drop the now
redundant default() from test.env.j2 (satisfies the undefined-var
and spot-default lints together)
- fix a mermaid parse error in the drill README: a ; in a
sequenceDiagram note was read as a statement separator
make quality-high green (test + lint phases, 15 targets, 0 failures).

Defer Swarm SQL replay to the disposable DR drill so shared writers such as Discourse are stopped before the destructive restore. Verify the selected generation with before/after database probes while preserving the Compose restore path.
The README Production block went provision -> deploy with no admin-key step, so user-administrator failed early (authorized_keys empty) for both the Guide CI jobs and any real user copying the README. Add a visible 'provision --vars' step that sets users.administrator.authorized_keys (merged into host_vars) in both Production variants of the role README template, regenerate all role READMEs, and replace the invisible CI payload splice with a visible substitution of the documented <your-ssh-public-key> placeholder.

swarm-exec reaches a DinD node; reaching a swarm service container (moodle,
openldap) needed a nested docker exec. Add swarm-app-exec, which resolves one
running replica on the node and runs a base64-encoded command inside it, so
live in-container inspection stays on a sanctioned make helper. Adding a
second exec_* script tripped the prefix-group lint, so exec_node.sh moves to
exec/node.sh and the new one lands at exec/service.sh.

INFINITO_TEST_TYPE is a per-invocation label the Makefile sets differently
per parallel test target (external/integration/lint/unit), not a persistent
default. Registering it as a static passthrough key wrote a per-target-varying
value into the shared .env that make test regenerates concurrently, which
tears the file for the env-file schema lint. Drop it from default.env and the
passthrough handler and suppress the run.sh reference with the
makefile-supplied nocheck that lines 15 and 27 already use, hoisting the junit
path into a variable so the continuation line can carry it.

07_assert_state.sh sources _context.sh under set -o pipefail, and the printf | head-n1 that picked the first NFS volume raised a broken-pipe write error the moment head closed the pipe after line one.

Plain parameter expansion returns the same first line with no pipe.

parallel.sh mirrors its per-target wall-clock table into
GITHUB_STEP_SUMMARY, so make lint and make test render a target/status/

utils/github/pytest_summary.py: headline counts with total time,
failures opened with durations, every test collapsed slowest-first.

The swarm deploy job now renders the same summary page as compose:
role runtimes, a swarm structure section (topology roles plus live node
list and service placement from the manager) and the Playwright table.
The matrix deploy tees its ansible output and prints the compose
matrix-deploy round/PASS markers, so the runtime parser segments swarm
runs per variant round too.
The runtime table unifies tasks and roles with a Type column (tasks
first), appends the recap total row and flags a mismatch between the
parsed sum and the recap total; rows are read from ROLES RECAP sections
only, which removes the double-counted TASKS RECAP task rows. Each role
row carries one column per host: executed, skipped or failed, with
ignored failures downgraded. The Playwright variant column drops the
redundant variant- prefix. Verified against the logs of runs
29656268771 (swarm) and 29620158441 (compose): every segment's parsed
sum matches the recap total within 0.05s.

The context derived PRIMARY_NFS_VOLUME from the first declared volume, but gitlab's first volume is repositories with nfs: false (gitaly cannot run on NFS), so the seed step wrote its pre-drain marker into a state directory that never exists on the export and killed a job whose deploy had already converged. Volumes declaring nfs: false are now skipped, making the drain check target a volume that actually lives on the export (gitlab_shared).

The discovery SPOT (cli.meta.ci.query) now runs one query shape per mode:
compose and host stay whole-role with variants packed into bundles, swarm
ranks and budget-cuts on per-variant rows and emits role#variant tokens
through apps.sh into variant_bundles, so the cut can pick a subset of a
role's variants and the --matrix view is the selection priority.
Replace the --unique flag with visible dna/clone columns (heaviest role
per dna cluster stays ahead of the cut), add the integrated column and
sort, count host bundles like compose, and give the deploy plan an id
counter, per-variant weights and display-width-aware alignment matching
the matrix renderer. Add i8ma*/i8pa* inspection aliases per mode.

cli.meta.ci.query is the single source of truth for the app-discovery
query (filter, coverage-first sort, lifecycle envelope, compose

in the query's own order (priority line starred, capped regular line,
then the candidates behind the cut), one row per variant, glossary
symbols in the header, with --cli for fixed-width terminal tables.
New glossary symbols: skip, priority, distros, unavailable.

cli.meta.ci.slots statically and conservatively counts every job the
CI run spawns outside the deploy matrices (reusable workflows opened
recursively, static matrices multiplied out, dynamic ones estimated,
worst entry-*.yml overhead included) and splits the remaining
256-job run budget between compose/swarm/host by the _SHARES weights,
with a per-mode floor and _SLOT_OVERRIDES pins. INFINITO_MAX_JOBS
defaults to 'auto', resolved per mode in apps.sh; the host workflow
drops its hardcoded cap. --matrix renders the budget as a table.

dedicated.sh streams rescue diagnostics via docker exec tar since docker cp cannot see the systemd container's mount namespace and silently extracted nothing. recover_drill.sh guards on docker availability: non-stack role deploys now drill the nfs and secrets legs instead of hard-failing on the impossible volume leg; stack jobs still drill all three. 04_stack_rm_wait tolerates an already-removed stack and re-issues the rm once services are gone.

Add cli/build/readme: derives each role README's managed sections from
templates/roles/README.md.j2.tmpl (the Cosmos mermaid diagram from
meta/services.yml, an invokable-gated Quick Setup, and Credits).
The Cosmos diagram shows dependencies, every declared service, and
dependents (roles that consume this one, matched by role name and by
provides provision-name in both directions). Role nodes carry deploy-mode
emoji markers (compose/swarm/host); disabled and shared services get a
stop mark; dependents are capped at 12.
test_readme enforces the Quick Setup body is byte-exact with the template
render. `make readme-generate` and `make cosmos` regenerate; `make cosmos`
also runs inside `make quality`.
Refactor: utils/symbol_glossary.py is the single source of truth for the
word/emoji mapping (unique project-wide), consumed by the complexity
matrix and the Cosmos builder. utils/roles/deploy.py holds role_has_stack
and role_deploy_modes, shared by both so the logic never drifts.
Add `make lint-mermaid` and its CI workflow, rendering every diagram via
mermaid-cli; the render step provisions chrome-headless-shell and unzip
on demand so it works in the minimal container.

meta/services.yml modes states where a role RUNS; a new meta/tests.yml
skip list deactivates TESTING a mode without touching that capability.
The table gains test_compose/test_swarm/test_host columns (base column
minus skip), --filter/--sort and the JSON/YAML payloads know the new
fields, and CI discovery (apps.sh) now filters on test_<mode> == true.
svc-storage-nfs-client is the first consumer and skips all three modes.
Also replaces the nine VS16-based header/lifecycle emojis (like the
old host/jobs/weight symbols) with East-Asian-Wide ones: terminals
render VS16 sequences 2 cells wide while the width model said 1,
shifting every header right of them off its column. A guard test pins
all table symbols to wide, VS16-free codepoints.

In compose/host mode the whole nested app stack lives inside INFINITO_CONTAINER, which dedicated.sh's EXIT-trap cleanup removes. The separate workflow-level rescue step ran container.py on the runner AFTER that teardown, so it saw an emptied Docker and captured only 12 host files (unlike swarm, whose DiD nodes outlive the deploy step and get recursed into).
Run the recursive container.py capture inside INFINITO_CONTAINER during cleanup, before the existing copy-out and the teardown, so it descends into the app containers. Drop the now-redundant, post-teardown 'Collect rescue diagnostics' step from the compose and host workflows (runner state stays covered by dump_state.sh; the upload step keeps uploading what dedicated.sh writes). container.py is now called once per mode: inside dedicated.sh for compose/host, at runner level for swarm.

Host lane for invokable non-stack roles (drivers, backup, wireguard, swapfile, ...). modes.host.enabled declared on 56 such roles; new lint test_role_host_mode enforces it. The complexity matrix gains a host column (not stack and modes.host.enabled), --deploy-mode host, and host bundles (one per variant); apps.sh accepts INFINITO_DEPLOY_MODE=host and filters host == true. New test-deploy-host.yml workflow (INFINITO_MAX_JOBS=10) deploys discovered host roles via the mode-agnostic ci/all.sh path, wired into ci-orchestrator (modes default 'swarm compose host').
Also: complexity -s/--symbol compact view (emoji-only headers, true/false as check/cross, lifecycle stage symbols, grouped legend with per-entry explanations, display-width aligned); stack column moved after host. scripts/meta/env/load.sh made zsh-compatible by delegating to bash and importing INFINITO_/PYTHON/VENV/PATH back.

The drill entry gate treated 'deploys no swarm service' as 'has nothing
to restore', but the backup chain operates on NFS volumes and deployed
backup units, not on scheduler objects; bigbluebutton's seven
NFS-backed volumes went entirely unproven. Gate the drill solely on the
NFS-flagged volume and make only the full-disaster step
workload-aware: stack roles keep docker stack rm, node-local roles get
their compose project (label com.docker.compose.project=<entity>, the
compose handler's --project convention) stopped on every node so no
writer races the export wipe and restore. Declare
workload: node-local on bigbluebutton so the phantom-service
converge/chaos gates skip while play, e2e and now the drill keep
running; svc-runner stays skipped via its missing NFS volume. Document
the nine drill steps host-by-host in the README.

The marker discovery matched any .dr-drill-marker under files/, so
SRC_REL could resolve to a parent tree and step 8 restored the wrong
subtree into the live export as root, leaving n8n_data owned root:root
and n8n (uid 1000) crash-looping on EACCES. Scope both repo layouts to
the primary volume's own marker and declare uid/gid 1000 on the n8n
data volume so nfs_prep enforces ownership on every deploy instead of
relying on Docker's copy-on-first-use.
The drill also stacked four copies of the backup tree on shared space
(live export, pulled tree, fully-allocated LUKS image, final restore
into a tmpfs /tmp) and ENOSPCed on large apps. Restore to /var/tmp,
drop the pulled tree before the device recover, make the loop image
sparse and free it after the marker verify, and stage only the volume
generation instead of the whole machine tree.

The swarm convergence gate derived runner_runner-1 from the services
metadata and polled a stack service the role never creates: the runner
fleet deploys as node-local compose projects on every node because each
runner needs its own node's docker socket and identity. Declare
workload: node-local on the runner services entry and let the gate
context map it to HAS_SWARM_SERVICE=false, so the stack-service gates
skip themselves while the swarm deploy, the registry distribution chain
and the CLI e2e keep running. Roles without the attribute keep the
image/template heuristic; workload: stack forces the gates on. Document
the runner architecture for both deploy modes in the role README.

Move files that share a delimiter-bounded name prefix within a folder (threshold 2) into a subfolder named after the prefix, dropping the prefix from the filename. Covers plugins/filter (docker, generate, has, merge, get/all), env handler subpackages, utils/roles/entity, utils/tests/swarm/write, role SQL/scripts/templates, keycloak/mailu task-includes, shared tasks/utils/load, and CI scripts. Update every import, query_file/script/include_tasks/src/lookup target, compose bind mount, and python -m path to the new locations.
Extend the prefix-grouped-files lint to threshold 2 with dir-level .nocheck and file-head nocheck opt-outs, and skip groups whose shortest member's stem equals the shared prefix. Keep flat only where a loader forbids nesting: WordPress mu-plugins and the docs/requirements namespace. Ansible filter discovery is recursive, so nested filters stay Jinja-resolvable.

Step 8 rewrites the export subtree directly on the ganesha server's
backing filesystem while the server keeps running and the nodes keep
their client mounts, so ganesha's mdcache and the client dentry caches
still describe the pre-wipe tree and update-pass tasks are Rejected
with readdirent ENOENT for the whole converge window. Step 8b restarts
ganesha, lazily remounts every swarm node and gates on a real write
probe through the manager's mount, each command timeout-bounded so a
wedged DinD node fails loudly instead of hanging the job.
