kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5 4afb949223 feat(ci): one validation gate, and nothing starts before it is green
The merge assertion was a job nobody depended on. ci-orchestrator needed the
scope, the branch prefix and the affected roles -- not it -- so a PR whose base
was not merged in went on to spend five distros on a deploy sweep and reported
a single red job beside a chain that had already finished.

Validation is now a reusable workflow every entry calls, and what it checks
follows the event and the inputs rather than the caller: a pull request gets
its branch prefix and merge base asserted, a run carrying a selection gets that
selection checked, a fork PR waits here for the privileged run's images. The
wait and its gate move in with it, so the orchestrator no longer keeps a second
copy of that logic. Every downstream job depends on the gate.

The selection check is what the last two nights needed. cli.meta.ci.validate
resolves every token against the branch that would deploy it -- role, variant,
mode, onion state -- and reports all offenders at once. Until now the matrix
builder raised on the first bad token from inside a chunk job, so a stale
priority line cost one full CI round per entry and only ever showed the next
problem after the previous one was fixed. Measured on a real list: three
unusable tokens, one pass.

A bare role name that matches nothing is a warning, not an error: the
diff-derived whitelist legitimately names roles the lifecycle envelope filters
out.

GitHub Workflow Helpers 🔧

This directory holds the shell helpers that GitHub Actions workflows under .github/workflows/ call. Helpers are grouped by responsibility into subfolders so each workflow file pulls only from the clusters it actually needs.

Subfolders 🗂️

Subfolder Responsibility
runner/ Host-runner hygiene around image builds and deploys (disk, swap, Docker daemon, diagnostics).
cancel/ Cancellation of in-progress workflow runs on PR-close and branch-delete events.
cleanup/ Scheduled repository maintenance that prunes stale GitHub resources.
resolve/ Derivation of structured workflow inputs and outputs from repository state.
sync/ Ref synchronization before workflow jobs derive CI scope from git history.
update/ The scheduled Update: Versions pipeline (version bumps and PR open/refresh).
release/ Release-time gates that decide whether a tagged commit may be released.

A new helper MUST live in the subfolder that matches its responsibility. New responsibilities MAY motivate a new subfolder, but MUST NOT flatten back into the top level.

For the workflow catalog see workflows.md. For the repository Make target index see make.md.
