feat(images): build, verify and publish the three images in CI; Renovate carries the digests
Operator rule 2026-10-29: image creation, hosting and lifecycle belong to CI/CD, never to a
workstation build/push. Nothing had ever been pushed to the Gitea registry.

- .gitea/workflows/images.yaml + scripts/images.sh: PRs build+verify (no credential); main
  builds, verifies and pushes toolbox, agent-runner (FROM toolbox) and conformance-runner as
  sha-<commit> + main, reading the digest back from the registry. Only changed images build.
- Each image's own build-image.sh does the build and in-image verification, now engine-neutral
  (DinD: no podman-only calls, probe over stdin not a bind mount). New toolbox build-image.sh.
- Digest references carry `# renovate-digest:` markers; renovate.json5 gains a custom.regex
  manager for them. The worker Job template is deliberately untracked (it would loop).
- renovate.yaml pins renovate-version 44.167.0: the action's default (39.264.0) rejects the
  current config's managerFilePatterns, so every run would have died at CONFIG_VALIDATION.
- Push credential: REGISTRY_PUSH_TOKEN secret; the Actions token has no package scope in
  Gitea 1.24.3 (container.go Authenticate). Retention: infra/gitea/registry-retention.sh.

// =================================================================================================
// Renovate configuration — JSON5, so the rationale can live NEXT TO what it explains.
// =================================================================================================
// THIS FILE WAS `renovate.json` AND IT WAS INVALID. It carried five `_comment` / `_*_comment`
// pseudo-comment keys, because JSON has no comments. Renovate REJECTS unknown top-level options, so
// the whole config failed validation and the first manual run of the workflow ERRORED OUT. Proven
// with the official validator (`ghcr.io/renovatebot/renovate renovate-config-validator`):
//
// ERROR: Found errors in configuration
// Invalid configuration option: _comment
// Invalid configuration option: _docker_comment
// Invalid configuration option: _ignorePaths_comment
// Invalid configuration option: _kubernetes_comment
// Invalid configuration option: _unmanageable_comment
//
// Renovate discovers `renovate.json5` natively (no RENOVATE_CONFIG_FILE needed, and nothing in
// .gitea/ or ci/ pins the old filename — only prose in comments), and JSON5 permits real `//`
// comments. So the fix keeps every word of the original rationale, positioned, instead of
// flattening it into a `description` string.
//
// VALIDATE BEFORE COMMITTING — it is one command and it is the only thing that catches this class:
// podman run --rm -v "$PWD/renovate.json5:/tmp/renovate.json5:ro,Z" \
// ghcr.io/renovatebot/renovate renovate-config-validator /tmp/renovate.json5
//
// CORRECTION (2026-10-29): THE VALIDATOR ABOVE WAS NOT THE RENOVATE THE WORKFLOW RUNS. The bare
// `ghcr.io/renovatebot/renovate` tag is `latest` (44.167.0 when this was measured), while
// renovatebot/[email protected] defaults `renovate-version` to `39` (its action.yml), i.e.
// 39.264.0. Validated against THAT, this file failed with five errors — every
// `managerFilePatterns` key ("Custom Manager contains disallowed fields", "Invalid configuration
// option: flux.managerFilePatterns", ...), because 39.x only knows `fileMatch`; the rename landed
// in 40.2.0. So even after the workflow found this file, every run would have stopped at
// CONFIG_VALIDATION. renovate.yaml now pins `renovate-version` to the exact release this file is
// validated against. VALIDATE WITH THAT SAME TAG:
// podman run --rm -v "$PWD/renovate.json5:/tmp/renovate.json5:ro,Z" \
// ghcr.io/renovatebot/renovate:<renovate-version from renovate.yaml> \
// renovate-config-validator /tmp/renovate.json5
// (Not `--strict`: that also fails on a pending migration of the pre-existing top-level
// `"docker": {"enabled": true}` block at the bottom, which is a warning, not an error.)
//
// `regex` vs `custom.regex` in enabledManagers, RESOLVED FROM SOURCE (Renovate 39.264.0 and
// later): both work. lib/config/migrations/custom/enabled-managers-migration.ts rewrites
// `regex` -> `custom.regex`, and that migration runs on every real repository run
// (lib/workers/repository/init/merge.ts -> migrateAndValidate), not only in the validator;
// lib/modules/manager/index.ts getEnabledManagersList accepts either spelling. `custom.regex` is
// the canonical name (introduced in 37.51.1, renovatebot/renovate#24079), so it is used below and
// nothing depends on the migration any more.

// It opens PRs for everything; allowed low-risk classes auto-merge on green CI. The ADR-0009
// split that gave image tags to Flux image-automation is formally closed — see
// .gitea/workflows/renovate.yaml for the three measured reasons (it pushes commits rather than
// opening PRs, so it bypasses the CLAUDE.md §1 gate; `main` is protected with

// ImagePolicy/ImageRepository/ImageUpdateAutomation objects, so nothing is being torn down.
// CONSEQUENCE: the `docker` and `kubernetes` managers, previously disabled ONLY to avoid

// CI publishes them (.gitea/workflows/images.yaml) under an immutable `sha-<commit>` tag and a
// moving `main` tag, and never writes to git. Every reference to them is DIGEST-ONLY
// (`<repo>@sha256:<hex>`, no tag), because the admission policies
// (platform/kyverno/admission/pm-agent-job-shape.yaml, conformance-trigger-job-shape.yaml)
// admit exactly that form. A digest alone gives Renovate nothing to follow, so the tag to
// follow rides in a marker comment on the line ABOVE the reference:
//
// # renovate-digest: image=<registry>/<namespace>/<image> tag=main
// <anything>sha256:<64 hex>
//
// `main` is not a version, so Renovate skips the release lookup and proposes a `digest`
// update whenever the tag's digest moves (lib/workers/repository/process/lookup/index.ts:
// an unversioned currentValue WITH a currentDigest yields updateType `digest`). The
// `sha256:` prefix is INSIDE currentDigest on purpose: Renovate replaces that capture
// verbatim with the new digest, which carries the prefix.
//
// DELIBERATELY NOT TRACKED: infra/agent/worker-job-template.yaml. It is baked INTO
// agent-runner, so bumping it would rebuild agent-runner and loop forever; pm-dispatch
// overwrites that field from PM_WORKER_IMAGE at runtime anyway.
// REGISTRY AUTH: the Gitea registry answers 401 to anonymous reads, and the platform token is
// scoped to hostType `gitea`, which a docker lookup never matches
// (lib/util/host-rules.ts find). renovate.yaml supplies a hostType `docker` rule.

The default rule above auto-merges minor/patch/digest on a green gate, which is right for an app image: a bad Sonarr bump inconveniences one pod. It is wrong for these five, because the gate is a STATIC check \u2014 it renders manifests and lints them, it does not boot a node, drain a volume or form an etcd quorum (vars.CLUSTER_AVAILABLE is unset, so L2/L3 conformance does not run in CI at all). So for anything whose failure mode is the CLUSTER rather than a service, a green gate is not evidence and a human must read the changelog. kured is here because it reboots control-plane nodes; longhorn because a storage-engine bump migrates live volume data; cilium because it is the CNI and a bad bump is a total partition (and its version is DUAL-PINNED in infra/ansible/roles/cilium/defaults/main.yml, which Renovate does not see, so the two would silently desync); cloudnative-pg because it drives Postgres switchovers; kube-prometheus-stack because ci/versions.env asserts an exact promtool/Prometheus lockstep and a chart bump that moves Prometheus fails the gate until that file moves with it.",

// WHAT RENOVATE STILL CANNOT FIX, so nobody mistakes a working bot for full coverage. A
// FLOATING tag has no version to compare, so Renovate skips it silently — it does not pin it
// and does not warn. As of 2026-10-17 that is: plexinc/pms-docker:latest,
// lscr.io/linuxserver/jackett:latest, pihole/pihole (NO TAG AT ALL), quay.io/keycloak/keycloak
// (no tag), nextcloud:31-apache and docker:27-dind. Those must be pinned BY HAND to a concrete
// version before any automation can maintain them, and until then they drift on every pull with
// nothing recording what is running. Separately, the HelmRelease minor-locking ranges (9 of 12,
// e.g. `>=88.0.0 <89.0.0` on kube-prometheus-stack) cap Renovate at patches inside a line it
// has been told not to leave; raising those ceilings is deliberate per-component work and is
// NOT part of enabling the bot. Both lists are in decisions/2026-10-17-automated-upgrades.md.
// platform/kyverno/tests/** ADDED 2026-10-17: those Kyverno policy fixtures pin `alpine:latest`

// reason; this closes the matching hole that enabling the `kubernetes` manager would otherwise
// have opened.
// conformance/** NARROWED 2026-10-29 to its subdirectories: ignorePaths applies to custom
// managers too (lib/workers/repository/extract/file-match.ts getMatchingFiles ->
// filterIgnoredFiles), so the blanket glob also hid conformance/versions.env, which now carries
