Both architectures were claimed to work and only one was ever exercised. The
deploy matrix now carries an architecture the way it carries mode, tor, distro
and filesystem, so every run proves both.
A job cannot ask for an architecture the way it asks for a distro, because the
architecture is the machine rather than something the job installs on it. The
matrix therefore carries a runner label and `runs-on` reads it, and an
architecture without a label in RUNNERS is a build error rather than a row that
lands on the wrong hardware and still reports green. assert_architecture.sh
checks the runner it actually got, because a label that stops resolving to
arm64 would otherwise go unnoticed forever.
Assignment is rotation, not chance: two architectures against five distros and
fifteen distro/filesystem positions are coprime enough that every combination
comes round. A role narrows the pool through `architectures` in its
meta/services.yml; without one it takes whatever the rotation hands it. An
empty intersection aborts instead of silently removing the role from the run.
Images are built per architecture and pushed under an architecture-suffixed
tag, then merged into the plain tag by manifest_all.sh; pushing the plain tag
from both builds would let the last one win and send half the rows to the wrong
platform. cleanup.sh now protects the `ci-<sha>-<architecture>` children of a
protected tag, because the plain tag is an index over them and deleting a child
leaves it unpullable on that platform.
label.py is split out of axes.py, which the 500-line limit no longer fits.
Writing a job title and reading one back belong together: a retrigger that
recovers an axis wrongly replays a different deploy than the one that failed,
and a drifting artifact name makes the failure reporter download nothing. The
leading `.*` in LABEL_RE is greedy on purpose so it anchors on the last mode
glyph; a reusable-workflow caller path carries a glyph of its own, and
test_selection.py guards the case.
Verified: 313 unit tests and 48 subtests across utils/github/variant,
utils/roles and cli/meta/ci. Locally, a deploy pinned to arm64 reaches ok=1444
and its image builds log aarch64-linux-gnu paths.
Not verified here: actionlint over the seven changed workflows, and a full
`make test`. The matrix doubles the row count, so runtime and runner
availability change for every CI run from here.

The replay is a second deploy on the same runner, and mark() only ever checked the variant number of a row, never its mode. So the marker landed on whichever row of the smallest variant came first, which for 38 of 98 marked rows was a swarm one: that runner would have had to bring a compose stack up beside a swarm stack.
Two places needed it. The row now has to run in the mode guide_deployable names, and only rows in that mode count as deployed when the search looks for the smallest variant - without the second half the search settles on a variant this sweep runs in swarm alone and the marker falls away silently.
Measured over the full matrix: 98 marked rows become 71, swarm drops from 38 to 0, compose rises from 47 to 59. The 27 roles that lose the replay entirely are the ones this sweep deploys in no compose row of an eligible variant; getting them back means forcing such a row into the sweep, which is a change to matrix selection rather than to this marker.
mark() had no tests. It has eight now, including the two failure modes the old code showed under a negative control: a swarm row carrying instructions=compose, and a compose row left unmarked because a swarm-only variant won the search.

The instructions test held a job of its own that picked one random role per
run, so a README's Production block was proven roughly once per 265 roles.
The replay now rides on a deploy row instead: no extra runner, and every role
the sweep touches gets its documented one-command deploy exercised.
The row is the role's smallest variant -- fewest services enabled -- because
that is the shape the README describes, and it is chosen among the variants
the sweep actually deploys, so a row cut as redundant coverage cannot silently
drop the role from the test. A role qualifies only when its README carries a
Production block and the guide's own mode is one the role runs and tests.
The marked entry carries the guide mode in `instructions` and a 📖 in its job
title, between the variant number and a priority ⭐. The guide mode is
independent of the mode the rotation gave the row: a swarm row still replays
in compose. The step runs last in the deploy job, after the swarm teardown,
because the replay deploys the role a second time and needs the runner's
ports.
call-test-instructions.yml, cli.meta.ci.guide_select and the `instructions`
dispatch input go with it. `redundant()` moves next to the marker so the
chunker, the plan table and the marker share one definition.
The plan table trades its 📊 Weight column for 📖 Instructions; nothing read
the weight any more, so it leaves the matrix entries too.

Every script a role ships now lives under `files/<language>/`, and the unit
suite is split the same way: `tests/unit/python/` beside new sibling trees for
the other languages. `tests/lint/filesystem/test_role_files_layout.py` keeps it
that way; directories whose shape is dictated from outside carry a `.nocheck`
naming the constraint (Docker build contexts, WordPress mu-plugins, the Joomla
extension, Odoo addons, Playwright suites, the `files/test/test.sh` harness
that `test-e2e-cli` resolves generically).
This cannot be applied in halves. Moving a file and repointing what names it
are the same change: 14 references resolve only at deploy time, so the tree is
green either before or after, never between.
Those 14 were found by static resolution over every reference class, not by the
test suite -- a full `make quality-high` was green while all of them were
broken:
* 7 `src:` values built from a role variable holding a bare filename
(svc-bkp-remote-2-local, decidim, espocrm, friendica, joomla, pixelfed x2).
The variable doubles as the destination name inside the container, so the
language segment belongs at the call site, not in the variable.
* `sys-service/tasks/04_base.yml` resolved every consumer's systemd script
through `first_found(..., errors='strict')` over `files/script.{sh,py}`.
18 roles ship exactly that and have no template fallback: the play would
have died on each.
* `sys-front-inj-javascript` fell back to `<role>/files/javascript.js`; the
interface now reads `files/javascript/javascript.js`.
* `sys-front-inj-logout/templates/head_sub.j2` built the cache-busting mtime
path through `path_absolute(... 'files', ...)`.
* 4 `ansible.builtin.script:` invocations naming a bare command
(pull.py, prune.sh, set_postgres_superuser_password.sh, ganesha-serve.sh).
* `dev-python/files/shell/install.sh` pointed at a sibling role's script.
Depth-dependent paths inside the moved trees were bumped accordingly: 59
`parents[N]` computations, 12 relative climbs, and the per-role recover CLI,
whose path `cli/administration/recover/recoverers.py` still assembled from the
pre-move location.
