compose.yml no longer hides services behind \`profiles: ["ci"]\`. The profile existed solely as a no-op safety net against a bare \`docker compose up\` in the repo root, but the top-level compose.yml is already explicitly scoped to local dev / CI testing (production goes through the Ansible roles under roles/<role>/templates/), so the safety net is redundant with the documented scope. Every \`--profile ci\` callsite collapses: - compose.yml: \`profiles: ["ci"]\` removed from coredns + infinito - Profile.args() deleted; Profile keeps is_ci() and registry_cache_active() for the cache-override gating - compose.py / down.py: profile.args() splat removed from the docker-compose command builder; down.py drops its now-unused Profile import - 5 shell wrappers (install, lint, tests/code, meta/resolve/apps, meta/resolve/diff/affected_roles): plain \`docker compose\` instead of \`docker compose --profile ci\` - tests/unit/.../test_profile.py: TestProfileArgs class removed - tests/unit/.../test_compose.py: two cmd-shape asserts updated to reflect the missing --profile pair Docs: - docs/contributing/artefact/files/compose.yml.md: the \"every service MUST be behind a profiles: entry\" rule is gone - docs/contributing/actions/debugging/ci.md: the \`docker compose ... --profile ci config\` debug snippet drops the flag; while touching the file the two em-dash clause separators in the reproduction-profiles shell block are rewritten to colons (documentation.md em-dash rule), and one list-item in compose.yml.md is collapsed to one sentence per line for consistency with its siblings Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

CI Failures and Debugging 🐛
If CI fails, follow a clean debugging workflow:
- Export the raw failing logs.
- Save them locally as
job-logs.txt. - Decide whether the failure belongs to your branch or to something unrelated.
- Fix related failures in the same branch.
- Open an issue for unrelated failures instead of mixing them into your branch.
Important 🚨
- You MUST NOT debug from screenshots alone. Use raw logs.
- You MUST NOT commit log files to the repository.
- If a Playwright job fails, you MUST also download the Playwright assets, store them in
/tmp/, and analyze them together with the logs.
Manual CI Jobs 🎯
You SHOULD use targeted manual CI jobs instead of rerunning the full pipeline if you only need one focused check.
Prefer the manual workflow in entry-manual.yml:
- Select your branch.
- Use
debianunless you have a clear reason to use a different distro. - Limit the run to the affected app when possible.
This gives faster feedback and protects shared CI runners.

Reproducing Runner Resource Limits Locally 💾
Some CI failures (most notably OOM-kills such as #162, PeerTube plugin install with rc=137) only surface under the memory and CPU ceiling of the GitHub-hosted runner and cannot be reproduced on a workstation with plenty of RAM. To reproduce these failures locally, you MUST cap the resources of the top-level infinito service in compose.yml to values that match (or undercut) the runner specs below.
GitHub-Hosted Runner Specs
All workflows target runs-on: ubuntu-latest, which maps to the GitHub-hosted standard Linux runner. The effective ceiling depends on the repository's visibility and plan:
| Repository / plan | vCPU | RAM | SSD |
|---|---|---|---|
Public repo (this repo, ubuntu-latest) |
4 | 16 GB | 14 GB |
| Private repo on Free / Pro / Team | 2 | 7 GB | 14 GB |
| Private repo on Enterprise | 4 | 16 GB | 14 GB |
The effective budget for the actual workload is lower than the table suggests because the runner itself plus the nested infinito container (systemd, nested Docker, Ansible) reserve a non-trivial baseline. Plan for roughly 1–2 GB of overhead before any role deploys a service.
For the authoritative specs, see the upstream docs for standard hosted runners and larger runners.
Env-Var Knobs
compose.yml exposes three env vars on the infinito service that cap its memory, swap, and CPU ceiling. For the authoritative variable reference (names, defaults, purpose) see the SPOT in compose.yml.md. This page SHOULD NOT duplicate that table and MUST link back to it when a contributor needs the precise definitions.
Canonical Reproduction Profiles
Pick the profile that matches the runner you want to mimic:
# Public repo runner (ubuntu-latest, 4 vCPU / 16 GB): the default CI target
INFINITO_MEM_LIMIT=16g INFINITO_MEMSWAP_LIMIT=16g INFINITO_CPUS=4 make <target>
# Private repo runner on Free/Pro/Team (2 vCPU / 7 GB)
INFINITO_MEM_LIMIT=7g INFINITO_MEMSWAP_LIMIT=7g INFINITO_CPUS=2 make <target>
# Aggressive OOM reproducer: forces the memory spike that surfaces #162
INFINITO_MEM_LIMIT=4g INFINITO_MEMSWAP_LIMIT=4g INFINITO_CPUS=2 make <target>
Verify the caps applied with docker compose -f compose.yml config | grep -E 'mem_limit|memswap_limit|cpus' before starting the deploy.
