ci: prebuilt runner images for smoke/SDK/web jobs

[ndizazzo]

What this does

Moves CI jobs that were installing their own toolchain at runtime onto digest-pinned prebuilt runner images from the mesh-llm-runner-images sister repo. Eleven jobs across eight reusable workflows gain a container:; twelve runtime setup/install steps are deleted outright and nine more are gated behind job.container.id == '', because the image already carries what they were installing. The Playwright browser install and its cache restore/save pair are among the deletions — Chromium now comes from the image.

A second, smaller change rides along: seven macOS call sites that each hand-rolled brew install lld plus a PATH/RUSTFLAGS export are collapsed into one .github/actions/setup-macos-lld composite.

Layout

One commit per chunk. Listed in the order they landed, which is not numeric order — 5b waited on the image repo's public web backend being built and promoted, so it landed after chunk 6.

Chunk	Commit	Scope
0	58b749fef	assert the cpu backend on existing verify-runner-image calls, so the identity check is real before anything else moves
1	e2a267dee	scripted-binary-smoke.yml
2	4304798d2	hf-download-smoke.yml
3	fdebeb2aa	smoke.yml (Linux rows)
4	4aeec8b72	sdk-smoke.yml (Linux rows)
6a	3342d4699	drop dead-weight brew install on the macOS Metal runtime row
6b	747d68e0b	the setup-macos-lld composite
5a	—	mesh-llm-runner-images #20 / #21, already merged (17283ab, 5ea673b): adds the public web backend with baked Chromium/Playwright
5b	d76b5217e	ci-web-slice.yml, ci-ui-artifact-slice.yml, website-pages.yml, nightly-stability-run.yml

Ten interleaved fix(ci) commits address defects found by the validation harness described below, and are kept separate so the chunk commits stay readable. bf8816cd3 deletes the harness.

Note on commit order. Chunks 0 and 1 sit at the end of the branch rather than the start. They were originally first, but #1390 was branched from a local main that had them on it and carried them into main on merge — where chunk 1's packages: read request arrived without the caller grant that satisfies it, taking Main / Linux to a zero-job startup_failure. #1390 was reverted in #1394 and re-landed clean as #1395, and these two commits were cherry-picked back here afterwards, so this PR again owns both halves of that pairing. 21 commits total: 8 chunk, 10 fix(ci), 3 harness.

Conventions this introduces

These are documented in .agents/skills/manage-ci/references/current-inventory.md; the short version:

• image: '' opts a job out per-row instead of forking it into a containerized and a bare-metal copy. Two rows use it: smoke.yml's gpu-nvidia CUDA smoke (the approved uncredentialed self-hosted exception) and sdk-smoke.yml's swift row (macOS, never container-capable).
• The ternary that selects it must put the non-empty value in the && branch. cond && '' || url is always url — GitHub Actions expressions are JS short-circuit and '' is falsy, so the opt-out branch is unreachable. This shipped as a real bug in chunk 3 and silently ran the CUDA smoke row against the CPU image; scripts/tests/test_ci_workflow_ternary_contract.py now fails any workflow ternary with a falsy literal in the && branch. actionlint cannot see this class.
• if: job.container.id == '' gates the setup actions on jobs that have both kinds of row, rather than deleting them. One deliberate exception: actions/setup-java in sdk-smoke.yml is never gated, because the image ships no JDK for it to shadow. Jobs with no bare-metal row delete their setup steps outright.
• verify-runner-image <environment> <backend> ... runs as a preflight, after the setup actions, not before them. That placement is what turns an image/toolchain mismatch into a one-line diagnosis instead of a confusing failure deep inside a test.
• Container jobs default to sh -e {0}, not bash. Any step relying on bashisms declares shell: bash. This also shipped as a real bug — in two places, one of them website-pages.yml's set -euo pipefail, which has no pre-merge coverage and would have first failed on a push to main. scripts/tests/test_ci_workflow_container_shell_contract.py now fails any shell-less run: step inside a container: job that uses a bashism. actionlint's shellcheck integration assumes bash and cannot see this class either.
• A pinned digest is a frozen artifact. The image repo's main says nothing about what is inside the digest a workflow pins. The CPU digest used here has been pinned since 2026-08-12 and was built 2026-07-22, so the openai npm bake added to install-core-tools.sh in mesh-llm-runner-images Add CI workflow #20 (2026-08-19) is not in it — gating smoke.yml's npm install --global openai on job.container.id == '' red the core-CPU smoke with Cannot find module 'openai'. That install stays ungated, with a comment naming the condition under which re-gating becomes correct. Before deleting an install because "the image bakes it", confirm the capability is in the pinned digest and confirm it from a green run; verify-runner-image's JSON is the probe (mesh_llm_revision dates the build).

How this was validated, and the gap that makes it necessary

mesh-llm's PR CI runs its lane workflows from main — all five pr_*.yml entries pin uses: Mesh-LLM/mesh-llm/.github/workflows/ci-<lane>-lane.yml@main, and relative uses: inside a lane resolve against that same ref. The plan job checks out the default branch too. So a PR that changes a workflow is not exercised by its own CI, and the change goes live on merge.

This branch therefore carried a throwaway harness, _tmp-pr-head-validate.yml, calling the Quality, Linux, macOS and Website lanes from the branch head instead of main. It is deleted in bf8816cd3 and existed only to produce the evidence below. Its coverage is recorded in the CI inventory by run and job id, so the evidence outlives the workflow.

Proven in-container on the final harness run 32379079944 (green: 0 failures, skips are unselected matrix rows), by reading job logs rather than job conclusions:

• Core CPU inference smoke (job 96467567836) — Initialize containers present, Install OpenAI client ran rather than being skipped, and ci-compat-smoke.sh completed with OpenAI compatibility smoke passed across all four model-name variants.
• The image: '' opt-out is genuinely bare metal (job 96467567816, CUDA smoke) — no Initialize containers group, runner labels self-hosted / gpu-nvidia, the gated actions/setup-python and actions/setup-node steps ran, and Install CUDA smoke runtime libraries succeeded. That last point is the ternary bug's regression test: before the fix this row ran the CPU image and died on Unable to locate package cuda-cudart-12-9.
• Playwright and Chromium served from the image — chunk 5b's whole reason for existing (job 96459672277): PLAYWRIGHT_BROWSERS_PATH=/opt/ms-playwright, chromium launch ok, "playwright_version": "1.62.1" matched against the image's own stamp, 60 passed, and no browser download anywhere in the job (the only Download lines are GitHub action repos and Docker layers).
• Chunk 5b's remaining jobs — Console UI quality (96459672309), Public website build (96459672326), and Build immutable console UI in both the Linux (96459609646) and macOS (96459712284) lanes.
• Chunk 6b's install → resolve → probe → export path on a real macos-15 runner, and the swift image: '' opt-out row (96470672063).

The full scripts/tests suite (489 tests, 7 skipped) passes with the harness removed — deleting a workflow changes the census that test_pr_workflow_artifacts.py and the reusable-workflow contract tests assert over, so that run is part of the deletion commit's evidence, not a formality.

Known properties and accepted risk

• The containerized jobs run as root. The image's public stage does USER root and never drops back; only the self-hosted stage ends USER runner. Workspace files these jobs create are therefore root-owned. Harmless on ephemeral hosted runners — not harmless if any of these rows ever moves to a persistent self-hosted or Depot runner, where the next job's checkout runs as runner.
• CARGO_ENCODED_RUSTFLAGS replaces target.<triple>.rustflags, it does not merge. Inside a job running setup-macos-lld, the checked-in .cargo/config.toml's android -Wl,-z,max-page-size=16384 entries stop applying. Cleared for every call site: all seven are macOS-gated and no call site touches an android target. This is the single load-bearing assumption in chunk 6.
• Four of the seven setup-macos-lld call sites cannot be exercised before merge — native-sdk-artifact.yml:362, node-sdk-addon-artifact.yml:199, and release.yml:270/:520 are release-cut paths. Cleared statically: all four sit after dtolnay/rust-toolchain like the three validated ones, and all are macOS-gated.
• website-pages.yml and nightly-stability-run.yml are likewise unreachable pre-merge (push: branches: [main] with a ref-guarded dispatch, and a schedule whose dispatch path would hit a live mesh endpoint). website-pages.yml's build is substantially covered by proxy: ci-web-slice.yml's website job runs the same npm ci and the same just crate-docs in the same image, and is green.
• None of chunk 5b is exercised by this PR's own required checks, for the @main reason above — the throwaway harness is the only pre-merge evidence 5b will ever have.
• @playwright/test and the image are now a matched pair. crates/mesh-llm-ui/package.json and mesh-llm-runner-images' config/playwright-pin.txt are both 1.62.1; bumping one without the other fails ui_e2e at the preflight on every PR. The bump sequence is documented in the CI inventory.
• ci-web-slice.yml's website job runs just crate-docs on the image's unpinned stable rustc, while website-pages.yml keeps dtolnay/rust-toolchain for the same recipe. That inconsistency is inherited from main, not introduced here; the pin was kept on the Pages path deliberately, since a silent toolchain drift there has no pre-merge coverage at all.

Follow-ups, filed not fixed

• The CPU digest is a month older than the image repo's main and should be promoted, which would let the openai install be gated off for real. Deliberately not done here: a digest bump changes toolchain_epoch and invalidates caches across every containerized job, which is its own change with its own validation.
• verify-runner-image's asserted tool list covers cargo cmake docker git jq just lld node ninja npm pnpm python rustc sccache, but chunks 1/2/4 also removed installs of curl, lsof, patchelf, pkg-config, libssl-dev and libdbus-1-dev, which the image declares in profiles/common.yml. If one of those is dropped from the profile, mesh-llm finds out as a confusing mid-build error rather than a clean verify failure. The fix belongs in the image repo.
• dtolnay/rust-toolchain still runs inside containerized jobs and re-downloads a toolchain the image already carries — and can install a different rustc than verify-runner-image just asserted. It works today; worth measuring before touching.
• CI: containerized UI jobs discard the pnpm/npm caches the runner image already warmed (reused 0 on every install) #1392 — the containerized UI jobs point pnpm at ~/.pnpm-store, which in-container resolves away from the store the image already warmed at build time, so pnpm reports reused 0, downloaded 688 on every run and we pay an Actions cache entry (on a repo cache already over its 10 GB quota) to rebuild what the image ships.
• node-sdk-addon-artifact.yml's Validate macOS x64 cross-linker looks like a duplicate of the composite's probe but passes --target x86_64-apple-darwin while the composite probes only the host. It is the argument for giving the composite an optional probe_target input.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

CI workflows now use pinned runner containers, centralized macOS linker setup, revised cache policies, and explicit package permissions. New tests validate workflow permissions, shell compatibility, and ternary expressions. CI inventory documentation records image, cache, linker, and promotion contracts.

Changes

CI environment migration

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Pinned runner environments and setup gates .github/workflows/ci-ui-artifact-slice.yml, .github/workflows/ci-web-slice.yml, .github/workflows/hf-download-smoke.yml, .github/workflows/sdk-smoke.yml, .github/workflows/smoke.yml, .github/workflows/website-pages.yml, .github/workflows/nightly-stability-run.yml	Selected jobs run in pinned CUDA runner images. Host tool setup is skipped for containerized jobs. Image contents and Playwright versions are verified.
macOS linker action .github/actions/setup-macos-lld/action.yml, .github/workflows/ci-platform-checks-slice.yml, .github/workflows/native-sdk-artifact.yml, .github/workflows/node-sdk-addon-artifact.yml, .github/workflows/release.yml, .github/workflows/swift-sdk-artifact.yml	A composite action installs and probes lld, then exports the linker path and Rust flags. macOS workflows use the action instead of inline linker setup.
Workflow permissions and static contracts .github/workflows/*.yml, scripts/tests/test_ci_workflow_permission_contract.py, scripts/tests/test_ci_workflow_container_shell_contract.py, scripts/tests/test_ci_workflow_ternary_contract.py	Workflows add packages: read where required. Tests validate reusable-workflow permissions, Bash-specific syntax in containers, and falsy ternary branches.
Cache policy updates .agents/skills/manage-ci/references/current-inventory.md, ci/ci.md, scripts/tests/test_ci_artifact_actions.py, scripts/tests/test_pr_workflow_artifacts.py	Cargo caches restore trusted-main entries without PR publication. Website npm caching is removed, and console pnpm publication is limited to ui_quality.
CI inventory and lifecycle records .agents/skills/manage-ci/references/current-inventory.md	The inventory records runner-image mappings, setup gates, shell behavior, verification commands, linker usage, immutable digests, and promotion rules.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to c7385

The PR moves CI jobs to pinned runner images and centralizes macOS linker setup; it is mergeable with owner awareness that the shared linker action may bypass the required build entrypoint and that permission validation may miss some all-scope caller/callee mismatches.

Include job-level permissions in each callee requirement set.

These lines collect only workflow-level permissions. GitHub also applies job-level permissions. A reusable workflow that requests packages: read only in a job produces None here, so line 72 skips every caller edge for that workflow. Merge explicit job-level scopes into the callee requirement set before checking callers. GitHub evaluates permissions at workflow level and then at job level. (github.com)

- Around line 256-264: Update the inventory wording to replace “today” with “as
of August 20, 2026,” and ensure future entries record the date or source
revisions whenever either Playwright dependency changes.
- Around line 176-179: Update both pinned openai@7.5.0 installation steps to set
HF_TOKEN and HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN to empty values at step scope, ensuring npm
lifecycle scripts cannot access either Hugging Face token.

Nitpick comments:
In `@scripts/tests/test_ci_artifact_actions.py`:
- Around line 2531-2534: Strengthen both cache trust-boundary tests: in
scripts/tests/test_ci_artifact_actions.py lines 2531-2534, update the dispatched
PR cache test to assert exclusions for both pull_request and
pull_request_target; in scripts/tests/test_pr_workflow_artifacts.py lines
267-271, add the original_event_name != pull_request_target assertion alongside
the existing assertion.
