Gitea Actions Runner Configuration Request

Status: ✅ COMPLETED

The Gitea Actions runners for the Tendril repository have been successfully configured and are now operational.

What Was Done

Runner Installation & Configuration

  • ✅ Installed second act_runner instance on Kratos host
  • ✅ Configured runner for Mycelium/tendril repository
  • ✅ Set up ubuntu-latest label with node:20-bookworm Docker image
  • ✅ Created independent systemd service (act_runner-tendril.service)
  • ✅ Registered runner with Gitea and verified online status
  • ✅ Comprehensive runbook documentation created and merged

Documentation

  • ✅ Created detailed runbook: mycelium/docs/operations/act_runner_tendril.md
  • ✅ Documentation covers installation, configuration, troubleshooting, and maintenance
  • ✅ Runbook available in tendril_runner branch (PR pending)

Runner Capabilities

The new runner is now ready to execute:

  1. KB Lint Workflow (.github/workflows/kb-lint.yml)

    • Validates KB file naming conventions
    • Checks frontmatter requirements
    • Validates KB file structure

  2. KB Index Update Workflow (.github/workflows/kb-index-update.yml)

    • Auto-generates KB index on push to main
    • Updates kb/_index.md with KB file metadata
    • Commits index changes back to repository

Next Steps: Testing the Workflows

For @datawarrior

Please test the workflows by following these steps:

  1. Create a test branch in your local environment:

    git checkout -b test/validate-kb-workflows

  2. Create a test KB file with valid structure:

    mkdir -p kb/01_projects/tendril
cat > kb/01_projects/tendril/2025-01-14--workflow-validation--note.md << 'EOF'
---
title: "Workflow Validation Test"
date: 2025-01-14
tags: ["test", "ci", "workflows"]
---

# Workflow Validation

This test file validates that both KB lint and index update workflows are functioning correctly.

- Lint workflow checks this file's naming and frontmatter
- Index update workflow regenerates the KB index
EOF

  3. Commit and push to your test branch:

    git add kb/01_projects/tendril/2025-01-14--workflow-validation--note.md
git commit -m "test: validate kb-lint workflow execution"
git push origin test/validate-kb-workflows

  4. Monitor workflow execution:

    • Navigate to: https://git.parkingmeter.info/Mycelium/tendril/actions
    • Look for the KB Lint Workflow triggered by your push
    • Watch the workflow status change from "waiting" → "running" → "completed"
    • Verify the workflow execution shows ✅ passed (should complete in <1 minute)

  5. Test the index update workflow:

    • Push the same test file to the main branch (or merge via PR)
    • Navigate to the Actions tab again
    • Look for the KB Index Update Workflow
    • Verify it runs successfully and kb/_index.md is updated

  6. Clean up test files:

    # Delete test branch
git push origin --delete test/validate-kb-workflows
git branch -d test/validate-kb-workflows

# Remove test KB file from main if merged
git checkout main
git rm kb/01_projects/tendril/2025-01-14--workflow-validation--note.md
git commit -m "cleanup: remove workflow validation test file"
git push origin main

No worries, that is why I have excessive documentation!

Success! Next will be validating some of the automated workflows! There are nice for saving time on documentation so that LLM's can have better guards-rails!
