GRM-36: feat: implement documentation-as-code with wiki sync and doc-coverage

Add /docs/ directory with user and technical documentation extracted from README, AGENTS.md, and source code. Add scripts/sync_wiki.py to sync docs to Gitea wiki via API. Add scripts/doc_coverage.py to check CLI commands, modules, and CI scripts are documented. Add sync-wiki.yml workflow for auto-sync on merge and release. Slim down README.md to lean entry point. 28 new unit tests, 100% coverage maintained.

Closes GRM-36

# FAQ
### How do I obtain the Gitea registration token?
The runner registration token is obtained from your Gitea instance: **Admin → Actions → Runners → Create Registration Token**. Set it as `GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` in your `.env` file or pass it via `--token` on the command line.
### How do I skip the sudo password prompt for automation?
Configure passwordless sudo on the remote host and pass `--no-ask-become-pass` to the CLI command. This is recommended for CI/CD pipelines.
### Can I run multiple runners on the same host?
Yes. Each runner instance is fully isolated with its own system user (`grm-<name>`), rootless Docker daemon, data directory, and systemd user service. Install additional runners with different `--name` values and manage them independently by name.
### Why does my runner appear offline after installation?
Check that `GITEA_URL` and `GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` are correct, verify the runner service is running with `sudo -u grm-<name> systemctl --user status gitea-runner`, and check the logs for registration errors. You can also confirm the runner appears as **Online** in the Gitea UI under **Actions → Runners**.
### What does the "Event loop is closed" warning mean?
This is a harmless cleanup traceback from Molecule's Docker driver when the test process is interrupted. It does not indicate a test failure.
### Where are runner connection details stored?
GRM stores each runner's connection details (host, user, SSH key, Gitea URL) in a local JSON registry at `~/.local/share/grm/runners.json`. After installation, lifecycle commands work by runner name only — you can override any stored value by passing the corresponding flag.

# Getting Started
## Developer Setup
```bash
git clone https://git.oblachno.oblachno.com/oblachno/gitea-runner-manager.git
cd gitea-runner-manager
pyenv install 3.12
pyenv local 3.12
make setup
```
## Configure Gitea Credentials
```bash
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env:
# GITEA_URL=https://git.example.com
# GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN=your-registration-token
```
`GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` is the runner registration token obtained from your Gitea instance (Admin → Actions → Runners → Create Registration Token).
### Admin API Token (optional)
Set `GITEA_ADMIN_TOKEN` to enable informational API checks during integration test. This is **optional** — the test primarily verifies the runner by checking:
1. **`.runner` registration file** exists and contains valid JSON (proves successful registration)
2. **Systemd user service** is active (proves daemon is polling for jobs)
API checks, if enabled, are purely informational and do not affect pass/fail.
## Install a Runner
Using the CLI (you will be prompted for the sudo password by default):
```bash
grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --key ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 --name prod-runner
```
> **Automation tip:** Configure passwordless sudo on the remote host and pass `--no-ask-become-pass` to skip the password prompt. This is recommended for CI/CD pipelines.
Using Make:
```bash
make install HOST=192.168.1.10 USER=ubuntu KEY=~/.ssh/id_ed25519 NAME=prod-runner
```
## Verify Runner
The installer performs an automated integration test that verifies:
1. **`.runner` file exists** with valid JSON containing `id`, `uuid`, `token`, `address` — this proves successful registration with Gitea
2. **Systemd user service is active** — this proves the daemon is polling for jobs
You can also check the Gitea UI under **Actions → Runners** to confirm the runner appears as **Online**.
Optional: If `GITEA_ADMIN_TOKEN` is set, the installer will also query the Gitea API and report whether the runner appears in the admin or repo runners list. This is purely informational.
## View Logs
**GRM application logs** (Python CLI output):
```bash
# Application log file (all messages including DEBUG)
cat ~/.local/state/grm/logs/grm.log
# Enable debug logging in the current session
GRM_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --name prod-runner
```
**Runner logs** (on the remote host):
```bash
# Runner logs (via systemd user service)
sudo -u grm-<name> journalctl --user -u gitea-runner -f
```
The GRM application writes to two destinations:
| Destination | Level | Content |
|-------------|-------|---------|
| Console (stdout) | `GRM_LOG_LEVEL` (default: INFO) | Colorised user-facing messages and operation reports |
| `~/.local/state/grm/logs/grm.log` | DEBUG | All messages with timestamps and severity |
Set `GRM_LOG_LEVEL` to one of `DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARNING`, `ERROR`, or `CRITICAL` to control console verbosity. The log file always captures everything at DEBUG level regardless of the console setting.
Console output is automatically colorised via ``click.echo``: operation headers in bright cyan, completed steps in green, failures in red, and status updates in yellow.

# Installation
## Prerequisites
- **SSH key authentication** — The remote host must be reachable via SSH using the user specified with `--user` and the private key specified with `--key`. GRM uses Ansible under the hood, which connects to the target host over SSH to execute all installation and configuration tasks. Without valid SSH credentials, Ansible cannot establish a connection and the deployment will fail.
- **Sudo access** — GRM requires root privileges on the remote host to create system users, install packages, and configure rootless Docker. By default, you will be prompted interactively for the sudo password. For automation or uninterrupted workflows, configure passwordless sudo on the remote host and pass `--no-ask-become-pass`.
## Supported Operating Systems
- Arch Linux
- Ubuntu 22.04 / 24.04
- Debian 12
All supported OSes are tested in CI via molecule scenarios on every PR.
## Quick Start Install
Using the CLI (you will be prompted for the sudo password by default):
```bash
grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --key ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 --name prod-runner
```
> **Automation tip:** Configure passwordless sudo on the remote host and pass `--no-ask-become-pass` to skip the password prompt. This is recommended for CI/CD pipelines.
## Make Install
Using Make:
```bash
make install HOST=192.168.1.10 USER=ubuntu KEY=~/.ssh/id_ed25519 NAME=prod-runner
```
## Runner Registry
After installation, GRM stores each runner's connection details (host, user, SSH key, Gitea URL) in a local JSON registry at `~/.local/share/grm/runners.json`. This means you rarely need to repeat connection arguments:
```bash
# List all registered runners with live systemd status
grm list
```
## Multiple Instances on the Same Host
Each runner instance is fully isolated with its own system user, rootless Docker daemon, data directory, and systemd user service:
```bash
# Install two runners on the same host
grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --name workflow-runner
grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --name build-runner
# Manage them independently by name
grm stop workflow-runner
grm status build-runner
```

# Troubleshooting
## "Event loop is closed" warning
This is a harmless cleanup traceback from Molecule's Docker driver when the test process is interrupted. It does not indicate a test failure.
## Runner appears offline after installation
- Check that the `GITEA_URL` and `GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` environment variables are correct.
- Verify the runner service is running: `sudo -u grm-<name> systemctl --user status gitea-runner`.
- Check logs for registration errors.
## Integration test fails
The test checks two things:
1. **`.runner` file missing or invalid** — Registration failed. Check:
- `GITEA_URL` and `GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` are correct
- Runner logs for registration errors
- The `.runner` file should exist at `/var/lib/gitea-runner/<name>/.runner`
2. **Service not running** — Daemon failed to start. Check:
- `sudo -u grm-<name> systemctl --user status gitea-runner`
- Logs for connection errors
## Rootless Docker: service fails to start
- Check the service status: `sudo -u grm-<name> systemctl --user status gitea-runner`.
- Verify the rootless Docker daemon is running: `sudo -u grm-<name> systemctl --user status docker`.
- Verify the Docker socket exists: `ls /run/user/$(id -u grm-<name>)/docker.sock`.
- Check logs: `sudo -u grm-<name> journalctl --user -u gitea-runner -f`.
- Ensure lingering is enabled for the runner user: `loginctl show-user grm-<name> | grep Linger`.
