Pester was installed with -MinimumVersion 5.0 and no ceiling in the CI job
image, both install steps in unit-tests.yml, and both Import-Module calls, plus
the suite's own import inside the container. The image is rebuilt on every CI
run and Pester is installed fresh on every unit-test run, so PSGallery chose the
version — a new major could reach the required PR checks with no commit here,
surfacing as unexplained test breakage on whichever PR ran next.
It had already happened. Steps named "Install Pester 5" were resolving 6.1.0 on
both legs, because Pester 6 declares PowerShellVersion 5.1 and so installs on
Windows PowerShell too. Nothing broke — the suite uses only constructs common to
5 and 6, and runs 1566/0 under 6.1.0 with no deprecation warnings — but nobody
chose it. The step names are corrected; they had been describing an install that
stopped happening some time ago.
Pinning the install alone is not enough, in two ways review found:
An unset variable does not fail. -RequiredVersion accepts an empty value and
degrades to "latest" for Install-Module and to "any" for Import-Module, both
exiting 0, so a renamed or dropped env key would silently restore the float this
commit removes. A guard step now fails the job instead.
The point of use was still floored. run-integration.sh imported the suite's
Pester with -MinimumVersion 5.0, so a second Pester reaching PSModulePath would
win regardless of what was installed. The Dockerfile now promotes the ARG to ENV
so the version is discoverable at runtime, and that import is pinned to it.
The pin lives in two files, so shell-selfchecks asserts they agree — split-brain
between the workflow and the image is precisely the unexplained breakage this is
meant to prevent. CONTRIBUTING.md and CLAUDE.md are updated too; the contributor
instructions were a third floating install site.
Recorded as an amendment to D017 — the same principle as the nested PVE package
pin, applied to the lane's own tooling.
Two filed issues in one rewrite of preflight-cleanup.sh's ISO block, because
they are the same twenty lines.
#111 — ISO_FILENAME was interpolated into python3 -c PROGRAM TEXT inside a
single-quoted literal, so a quote in the value escaped it and executed
arbitrary Python in a container holding PVE_API_TOKEN, PVE_PASSWORD, the
Terraform state and the storage VM's SSH key. It now arrives through the
environment and is read with os.environ. The volid is passed to urllib's
quote() via argv for the same reason, and an empty encode result now skips
the volume instead of issuing a DELETE against the bare collection URL.
#105 — generated ISOs embed a hash of first-boot.sh, so every change to that
script mints a new filename. Deleting only the exact current name orphaned
each earlier ISO on the storage permanently, because force-cleanup wipes the
Terraform state that could otherwise reclaim it. The family is now swept by
rebuilding the full generated shape: the captured prefix plus twelve hex
characters plus .iso. A prefix test alone would also have matched a longer
FQDN's family and any hand-uploaded "-manual-backup.iso" sibling, which in a
script whose job is deletion is worse than the leak it fixes.
Multi-delete applies only to that family. A name that is not generated — the
storage VM's cloud image — keeps the original one-shot behaviour, since a
basename can repeat across content namespaces and a plain name carries nothing
that identifies a family.
Adds preflight-cleanup.test.sh, wired into shell-selfchecks. The script had no
coverage at all. It stubs curl and sleep, then asserts on the DELETEs issued:
the family goes, the pinned base ISO and unrelated uploads stay, a non-hash
sibling stays, the cloud image takes only itself, a quoted payload is data
rather than code, and unset storage skips only the ISO branch. Every case also
asserts the script ran to completion and removed the Terraform state, so a path
that dies early cannot pass by having issued the right DELETEs first.
The local dev environment had drifted badly from CI. Remove the parts that no
longer describe anything real, and make the rest match how CI actually runs.
Delete tests/dev.ps1. It wrapped run-integration.sh, which CI calls directly,
and duplicated the module build that script already performs internally. As a
second entry point it drifted: it still offered the PVE 8 leg retired in #88,
mounted the Docker socket for storage containers replaced by the storage VM in
#87, and pointed its remote-host examples at a runner decommissioned in the ARC
migration. All four documents describing it used a positional syntax that bound
the bare word to -Tests and then fell through to -Shell, so every documented
command silently opened a container shell. Recorded as D019.
Delete tests/infrastructure/runner/, a self-hosted-runner-in-Docker superseded
by Actions Runner Controller.
Make disk_storage and iso_storage required. Their defaults named a NAS that the
lab replaced with Ceph, and CI overrides both from repository variables, so the
defaults only ever misled local runs. require_env now fails at the top of a run
rather than at terraform apply, and the descriptions point at tests/.env.test
because cmd_provision deletes terraform.tfvars before applying.
preflight-cleanup.sh no longer falls back to the literal "local" storage. An
unset TF_VAR_iso_storage now skips only the ISO branch, leaving VM destroy and
state cleanup intact, and emits a workflow annotation: force-cleanup is the
only cleanup CI runs and it wipes Terraform state, so a silent skip strands the
uploaded ISO with nothing left to reclaim it.
Drop docker-ce-cli and the /var/run/docker.sock mount. Nothing in the container
has called docker since #87 moved storage into a VM; the remaining docker calls
run inside that VM over SSH. The CI job image is built from the same target, so
this also removes a third-party apt repository from its supply chain.
Rewrite tests/.env.test.example against what the code now requires, and fix the
documented commands in CLAUDE.md, README.md, copilot-instructions.md and the
integration README.
The nested nodes were pinned to proxmox-ve_9.1-1.iso while production runs
9.2, so the suite was validating a PVE nobody uses. run-integration.sh already
reads PVE9_ISO with the 9.1 name only as a fallback, so this needs no script
change; setting it at the workflow level keeps provision and cleanup agreeing
on the ISO name, which force-cleanup needs to find the right file to delete.

The diagnostic step runs before cleanup so it reaches the nodes while
they still exist. keep_vms skips cleanup entirely for a dispatch run,
leaving the nested nodes up for hands-on inspection.

The repo stops holding opinions about CI VLAN addressing: the VM boots
via DHCP with hostname pvetest-storage (deterministic MAC for an
optional reservation), registers in the operator's CI DNS zone, and
everything addresses it by STORAGE_VM_FQDN. Replaces the static-IP +
explicit-DNS variables.

PVE 8 reached EOL 2026-08-31. The full matrix needs 42GiB free on one
parent node; no node has that after the fleet rebuild, so the headroom
guard blocks every run. Dropping the 8a/8b pair brings the requirement
to 26GiB. The module keeps PVE 8 runtime support and the script still
accepts PVE_VERSIONS='9 8' for local runs; the PVE-8-only Pester
contexts stay for SKIP_PROVISION runs against real PVE 8 hosts. Also
counts the storage VM in the headroom error message.

The nested PVE guests live on an isolated VLAN with no route to the
runner network (ADR 0032, homelab repo), and the runner-hosted Docker
services died with each ephemeral ARC pod anyway. A small cloud-image VM
in the ci pool now serves NFS, iSCSI, and the auto-install answer files
from inside the sandbox. Includes fixes from Codex and in-house review:
bpg provider >= 0.79.0, serial console for the resized cloud image,
key-based SSH (cloud images refuse password auth), CIDR validation,
storage VM in the headroom check, docker socket mounts removed.

Previous approach (/code-review:code-review --comment) was based on
incorrect documentation research. Reviewing the actual official
examples at anthropics/claude-code-action/examples/pr-review-*.yml
reveals the correct pattern:
1. Use a custom prompt with explicit review instructions (not a
plugin slash command)
2. Use claude_args with --allowedTools to enable the MCP inline
comment tool and gh pr CLI commands — this is what lets Claude
actually post to the PR
3. Enable track_progress: true for visual progress tracking
Without --allowedTools, Claude has no way to post anything because
the tools for PR commenting aren't allowed by default.
Also removed the plugins and plugin_marketplaces inputs since
they're not needed — the review runs via prompt instructions and
the allowed tools alone.
The custom prompt is tailored to PSProxmoxVE with focus areas
specific to the module: DECISIONS.md compliance, cmdlet
conventions, API correctness against the PVE OpenAPI spec,
test coverage, and security.

CI cleanup should always succeed regardless of Terraform state
(cancelled runs, timeouts, partial failures). force-cleanup uses
direct API calls + docker rm instead of terraform destroy.

Terraform state was stored in the container's working directory
(fresh checkout), so it was lost between CI jobs. The cleanup job
couldn't destroy resources because it had no state.
Now stores state at /opt/pve-integration/work/terraform.tfstate via
-state flag on all terraform commands. This persists across the
provision → test → cleanup job chain in GitHub Actions.
Also:
- Force cleanup now removes state from both local and shared paths
- Added -reconfigure to terraform init (avoids backend mismatch errors)

Prevents overlapping integration test runs on the self-hosted runner.
Uses cancel-in-progress: false so each run completes its full

Provision two PVE nodes per version (a/b) for future cluster testing,
plus Docker-based iSCSI target and NFS server for shared storage tests.
Multi-node changes:
- Each PVE version gets two nodes: 9a/9b and 8a/8b (4 VMs total)
- Parameterized answer.toml FQDN for unique hostnames per node
- Per-node auto-install ISOs with unique answer files
- Node name discovered from FQDN and included in test config
- API token creation handles pre-existing tokens (delete + recreate)
- New test env vars: PVETEST_HOST_B, PVETEST_APITOKEN_B
- Removed preflight cleanup from provision (use explicit cleanup instead)
Docker storage services:
- New docker-compose.storage.yml with iSCSI (tgt) and NFS containers
- Host networking so PVE nodes can reach storage services
- Docker socket mounted into dev-infra container for host Docker access
- Docker CLI added to dev-infra Dockerfile stage
- New test env vars: PVETEST_STORAGE_VM_IP, PVETEST_ISCSI_IQN, PVETEST_NFS_EXPORT
Other fixes:
- first-boot.sh installs open-iscsi on PVE nodes
- preflight-cleanup.sh handles empty ISO filename gracefully
- TMPDIR set to work dir to avoid /tmp overflow during ISO uploads

The node name "pve" was being masked in all CI logs because GitHub
Actions auto-masks secret values. Since the node name is not sensitive,
use vars.PVE_TARGET_NODE instead of secrets.PVE_TARGET_NODE.

Provision, test, and cleanup jobs now call run-integration.sh instead
of inlining ~170 lines of shell. Logic changes only need to be made
in one place, shared between CI and local dev.

GitHub Actions redacts any value that matches a secret or masked string
in job outputs, making them empty in downstream jobs. This affected
host IPs, tokens, and even port 8006 (substring of PVE_ENDPOINT).
The provision job now writes connection details to
/opt/pve-isos/test-config.json on the shared volume. Test jobs read
this file directly with jq — no job outputs needed for sensitive values.

::add-mask:: on the VM IP addresses caused GitHub Actions to redact
them in job outputs, making needs.provision.outputs.pve*_host empty
in the test jobs. The IPs are internal lab addresses, not sensitive.
Token masking is retained.

Restructures the integration test workflow from a monolithic sequential
job into separate provision → test → cleanup stages:
- provision: creates ALL nested PVE VMs in a single terraform apply
(parallel), waits for APIs, creates tokens, passes outputs to tests
- test: matrix [pve9, pve8] consumes provision outputs, no provisioning
- cleanup: always runs, API-only teardown for all VMs
Terraform refactored to for_each with pve_instances map variable,
enabling parallel ISO upload and VM creation.
New caching scripts reduce redundant downloads:
- ensure-base-iso.sh: downloads PVE ISOs to /opt/pve-isos if missing
- ensure-cloud-images.sh: caches cloud image + OVA with 7-day TTL
- prepare-auto-iso.sh: --cache-dir flag with hash-based skip
Runner no longer needs manual ISO provisioning (zero-touch setup).
cleanup-images bumped to min-versions-to-keep: 3 to survive overlapping
runs. All jobs gated against dependabot.

The dependabot actor check was only on the build job. The container-image
and cleanup-images jobs still ran — cleanup-images with if: always()
deleted GHCR container images while the main branch integration run was
still using them, causing PVE 8 tests to fail with "image not found".
Now all four integration jobs (build, container-image, integration,
cleanup-images) are gated with github.actor != 'dependabot[bot]'.
