The axis was complete in CI and unusable from a workstation. Four separate
gaps, each invisible on a real runner, and each found by running the swarm loop
against it:
`INFINITO_ARCHITECTURES` as an exported variable did nothing, because the
workflow reads its pool from `inputs.architectures`. Passing the input alone did
not help either: ACT_ENV sets INFINITO_APP_DISCOVERY_RUNNER=host, so the
discovery that builds the matrix runs outside the act container, where a
workflow-level `env:` does not reach. This is why the distro axis is handed over
twice, as `distros=` and as `INFINITO_DISTROS`, and SWARM_ARCH now does the same
for the architecture.
The third gap is the sharpest: act does not resolve `${{ matrix.* }}` inside a
job-level `env:` block, so `INFINITO_ARCHITECTURE` reached the assertion empty
every time. Earlier runs only appeared to work because a stale local `.env`
supplied a value, and the assertion was therefore checking a leftover rather
than the row. It surfaced the moment that file was regenerated.
Fourth, act had no mapping for `ubuntu-24.04-arm`, the label RUNNERS
introduced, and skipped the job with a hint instead of failing. It maps to the
same runner image: locally the architecture is delivered by emulation, and the
runner's own hardware is not the promise being made.
`make binfmt` registers that emulation. The handler already existed for
compose-up; it gains a subcommand so the registration is reachable without a
privileged docker invocation, which is what an agent would otherwise have to
ask for every time. The emulation does not survive a swarm run, because act
starts further containers whose systemd clears the shared binfmt registry, so
this is needed often.
Without `arch=`, SWARM_ARCH resolves to the host's own architecture rather than
staying empty, which would now abort every unpinned local swarm run at the
assertion.
Verified: `make binfmt arch=s390x` takes a platform from `exec format error` to
`s390x`; `make -n swarm-zombie arch=arm64` carries arm64 through all three
levers and defaults to amd64 without it; shellcheck passes; a live run reached
`"architecture":"arm64"` with the arm64 glyph in its job title.
Not verified: that the runner-label mapping carries a swarm deploy to the end.
That run was stopped so a parallel agent could use the shared stack.
