kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5.5 dd955a71a6 style(markdown): pin list markers to dash and convert every list
The 16.0.0 entry pkgmgr wrote on top of CHANGELOG.md uses "-" bullets
while every older entry uses "*". MD004's default "consistent" style takes
the marker of the first list in a file, so lint-markdown reported 400
MD004 findings in CHANGELOG.md and the pre-push gate refused the release
push.

MD004 is now pinned to "dash", the marker pkgmgr and the changelog skill
write, and make autoformat (markdownlint-cli2 --fix) converted the lists
of the 72 files that still used "*". Only list markers changed.

Cleanup Docker Resources

Description

This role performs a complete cleanup of Docker resources by invoking a systemd-managed script. It removes unused Docker images, stopped containers, networks, build cache, and anonymous volumes. The cleanup is fully automated and can run on a schedule or be triggered manually.

Overview

Optimized for maintaining a clean and efficient Docker environment, this role:

  • Loads and triggers the anonymous volume cleanup role.

  • Installs a systemd service and timer for Docker pruning.

  • Deploys a cleanup script that invokes:

    • The anonymous volume cleanup service.
    • container system prune -a -f to remove unused Docker resources.
  • Allows forced execution during maintenance runs (MODE_CLEANUP).

Cosmos

The diagram places Cleanup Docker Resources in the Infinito.Nexus cosmos: the components it deploys (capabilities), the central services it consumes (dependencies), and its outward reach (federation and bridged external networks).

Solid 1:1 edges are fixed relationships; dashed 0..1 edges are conditional (enabled only in matching deployments); red 0..0 edges are turned off in this role. Node markers show the role's deploy modes (💻 host, 🐳 compose, 🐝 swarm); ❌ marks a service that is explicitly turned off, and ⚙️ an Ansible role dependency declared in meta/main.yml.

Purpose

The primary purpose of this role is to prevent storage bloat caused by unused Docker images, volumes, and build artifacts. Regular pruning ensures:

  • Reduced disk usage
  • Improved system performance
  • Faster CI/CD and container deployments
  • More predictable Docker engine behavior

Features

  • Anonymous Volume Cleanup: Integrates with sys-ctl-cln-anon-volumes to remove stale volumes.
  • Full Docker Prune: Executes container system prune -a -f to reclaim space.
  • Systemd Integration: Registers a systemd unit and timer for automated cleanup.
  • Scheduled Execution: Runs daily (or as configured) based on SYS_SCHEDULE_CLEANUP_DOCKER.
  • Force Execution Mode: When MODE_CLEANUP=true, cleanup is executed immediately.
  • Safe Execution: Includes validation for missing services and Docker availability.

Script Behavior

The cleanup script:

  1. Checks whether the anonymous volume cleanup service is defined and available.
  2. Starts the service if present.
  3. Runs container system prune -a -f if Docker is installed.
  4. Stops execution immediately on errors (set -e behavior).
