Since 576fad84f (2026-05-10) moved role images from
`defaults/main.yml` into `meta/services.yml`, matrix-deploy's variant
baker has been writing the FULL effective config (services.yml +
variants.yml deep-merged via `get_variants`) into host_vars through
the `--vars` JSON consumed by `apply_vars_overrides`. That populates
`applications.{role}.services.{svc}.image` (and `.version`, .cpus,
etc.) with the upstream value, which then silently disables
`apply_mirror_overrides` for every role with an explicit image
declaration: the default `if_missing` policy short-circuits when the
field is already non-blank, so the rendered compose / Dockerfile FROM
keeps pulling from the upstream registry rather than the GHCR mirror.
The regression went unnoticed because Docker Hub usually serves the
pull, but it eventually surfaced as a BuildKit 429 on
`docker.io/library/php:8.2-apache` during the suitecrm Dockerfile
build (job 77602110531 on run 26362676803). Nextcloud, moodle,
mariadb consumers, postgres consumers, simpleicons, phpmyadmin,
phpldapadmin, jenkins, baserow, fider, ... all share the same latent
defect — only suitecrm happened to hit the rate limit first.
Fix the root cause instead of papering over per-role with
`mirror_policy: force`: introduce `get_variant_overrides_only` next
to `get_variants` and switch payload.py to it. The new function
returns the raw `meta/variants.yml` entries per role — no merge with
`meta/services.yml`. matrix-deploy now bakes only the variant-
specific overrides into host_vars; the role's services.yml fields
flow through the normal Ansible lookup chain at deploy time, leaving
`image`/`version` blank in host_vars so `apply_mirror_overrides`
populates them from `mirrors.yml` under its default `if_missing`
policy.
Behavior preserved for the other `get_variants` consumers:
* utils/manager/inventory.py:104 (schema-driven credentials) keeps
the full merged variant payload.
* planner.py:58 (variant-count only) is unaffected.
* legacy_resolver.py:42 (CombinedResolver runtime services_overrides)
keeps the full merged view.
Coverage:
* 3 new tests in test_applications.py for the new helper (single
empty variant when no meta/variants.yml, raw override without base
merge, cache invariance).
* test_payload.py + test_builder.py mocks repointed from `get_variants`
to `get_variant_overrides_only`.
* `make test` green across all 5 targets (lint, unit, integration,
external, test-lint) — 188 tests total.
Side-effects assessed:
* Repo-wide grep confirms no template / task accesses
`applications.X.services.Y.image` directly via hostvars — every
consumer goes through `lookup('config', …)` which still deep-merges.
* Roles previously pulling upstream now resolve via the GHCR mirror
whenever the image is already synced (the `images-mirror-missing.yml`
workflow keeps the destination populated).
