kevinveenbirkenbachandClaude Opus 5 ebd7d2e72b refactor(meta): centralize category/distro SPOTs
categories.yml moves from roles/ to the repository-root meta/, joining packages.yml. utils/roles/categories.py owns its location plus the tree-walking helpers that were stranded in entity/name.py, so no caller spells the path or duplicates the lookup.

meta/distros.yml becomes the SPOT for every distribution: os_family, Galaxy platform name, dev-environment base image, and the pkgmgr/pkgmgr-virgin/environment reference templates. It replaces seven scattered copies (DISTRO_FAMILY, VALID_DISTROS, _DISTROS, _CANONICAL_PLATFORMS, two shell arrays, a Makefile literal). INFINITO_DISTROS is no longer a static default but generated by utils/env/handlers/infinito/distros.py; the shell consumers read it through the env layer.

Drops dead CLI surface found along the way: --categories-file and --roles-dir on the provision CLI plus three unused parameters of generate_dynamic_inventory, and the positional roles_file of the invokable categories command.

tests/lint/repository/test_distros_spot.py pins the copies that cannot call the SPOT (workflow literals, docs table) and forbids composing a pkgmgr reference outside it.

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.
