+"""Check that workflow jobs downloading artifacts depend on the uploading job.
+
+This prevents the class of bug where a job downloads an artifact produced by
+another job but does not declare that job in its ``needs`` list. When both
+jobs run in parallel, the download fails because the artifact hasn't been
+uploaded yet.
+
+The check scans all workflow YAML files for:
+  - ``gitea-upload-artifact`` / ``actions/upload-artifact`` steps
+  - ``gitea-download-artifact`` / ``actions/download-artifact`` steps
+
+For each download, it finds the job(s) that upload an artifact with a
+matching name and verifies that at least one uploading job is in the
+downloading job's ``needs`` list.
+
+Artifact names with ``${{ ... }}`` expressions are matched literally
+(both sides use the same expression, so they resolve to the same value
+at runtime).
+

+

-"""Run molecule tests sequentially while polling Gitea for other runner failures.
-
-Each pair is encoded as one of:
-
-- **Single-role (4-part):** ``scenario|platform_name|platform_image|platform_command``
-- **Multi-role (5-part):** ``role|scenario|platform_name|platform_image|platform_command``
-
-Pairs are executed one at a time (molecule scenarios share temp directories and
-Docker networks, so parallel execution within a single runner is unsafe).
-
-A background thread polls the Gitea API. If any other molecule matrix runner
-reports failure, the current molecule subprocess is killed and this runner
-exits early with code 1.
-
-Usage::
-
-    # Single-role
-    python3 -m devx.molecule.molecule_ci_guard pair1 pair2 ...
-    # Multi-role
-    python3 -m devx.molecule.molecule_ci_guard --roles-root ansible/roles pair1 pair2 ...
-
-Environment variables:
-    GITEA_URL           Base URL of the Gitea instance.
-    CI_GITEA_API_TOKEN  API token with repo access (CI_GITEA_TOKEN accepted for legacy).
-    RUN_ID              Workflow run ID (GITHUB_RUN_ID).
-    JOB_NAME            Base job name (GITHUB_JOB), e.g. "molecule-tests".
-    MATRIX_INDEX        Current matrix index (runner-index).

+"""Check that Ansible ``set_fact`` tasks don't misuse ``| to_json``.
+
+This prevents the class of bug where ``set_fact`` tasks use
+``{{ targets | to_json }}`` to store Python lists, but ``to_json``
+converts native types to JSON strings. Ansible then stored the result
+as a string, so iterating over the fact yielded individual characters
+instead of list items, causing ``object of type 'str' has no attribute
+'ip'`` errors.
+
+The check scans all Ansible task files (playbooks and role tasks) for

+and flags them as potential bugs.
+
+``| to_json`` is legitimate in Jinja2 templates (e.g., rendering JSON
+config files) but almost never correct in ``set_fact`` — the fact should
+store the native Python type so downstream tasks can iterate/index it.
