- API resilience with retry, idempotent releases, and graceful Vikunja errors
- Release pipeline determinism with lock, rebase, and consistent classification
- Enforce conventional commit check in automated PR review
 - Molecule-tests matrix runner-index renders as empty for 0
 - Use 1-based runner indices for Gitea Actions compatibility

-
-### Refactor
-
- Consolidate CI workflows to eliminate redundant runs
- Convert shell scripts and inline workflow scripts to Python
- Enforce script separation and document import rules

 ### Revert

 - Remove v0.6.0 release (no user-facing changes)

-## [0.5.0] - 2026-06-21
-
-### Packaging
-
- `pyproject.toml` now uses `dynamic = ["version"]` with setuptools `attr` to source version from `__init__.py` (single source of truth)
- Added `console_scripts` entry point (`grm = "gitea_runner_manager.cli:cli"`)
-
-### Bug Fixes
-
- Arch Linux: pacman cache update now runs separately before package installation (fixes idempotence)
- `rootless_docker.yml`: separated `update_cache` from package installation task
-
-### Internal
-
- Added `GiteaClient.create_issue`, `GiteaClient.get_pr_files`, `GiteaClient.create_review` API methods
- Added `VikunjaClient.get_task` method
- Config URLs and repo settings now overridable via environment variables
-
-## [0.4.0] - 2026-06-21
-
-### Rootless Docker Support
-
- Full rootless Docker installation and configuration via Ansible
- `docker_rootless_setup` variable controls whether rootless Docker tasks run
- User setup tasks (subuid/subgid, lingering, dockerd-rootless)
- Proper gating of all Docker-dependent and `systemctl --user` tasks
-
-### Runner Labels
-
- `--labels` option on `grm install` — specify runner labels (e.g., `--labels "ubuntu-latest:docker://node:20"`)
- Labels passed through to runner config YAML
-
-### Security Fix (CWE-214)
-
- **Critical**: Registration tokens and admin tokens are no longer passed via `--extra-vars` on the command line
- Extra-vars are now written to a temporary JSON file with `0600` permissions and passed via `--extra-vars @tempfile`
- This prevents secrets from being visible in the process list (`ps aux`)
-
-### Configuration via Environment Variables
-
- API URLs and repo configuration in `config.py` are now overridable via environment variables:
-  - `GRM_GITEA_API_URL`
-  - `GRM_VIKUNJA_API_URL`
-  - `GRM_REPO_OWNER`
-  - `GRM_REPO_NAME`
-  - `GRM_VIKUNJA_PROJECT_ID`
-
-### Ansible Role Improvements
-
- Dead code cleanup (removed `config.yml`, legacy system-level service, duplicate task includes)
- `remove-runner.yml` now disables lingering and removes subuid/subgid entries for complete cleanup
- Arch Linux: `gnupg` package name fix, pacman cache handling
- Docker APT repository: deb822 format, proper GPG handling, arch mapping
- Idempotence fixes for user_setup and download tasks
-
-## [0.3.0] - 2026-06-21
-
-### New CLI Options
-
- `--force` flag on `grm remove` — remove a runner even when the host is unreachable (skips Ansible playbook, only deregisters via API)
- `--url` option — override the Gitea URL for any command (useful for multiple Gitea instances)
- `--ask-become-pass` is now the default behavior (no need to pass it explicitly)
-
-### Status Detection Fixes
-
- `grm list` now correctly retrieves runner status (was showing "unknown" for active runners)
- Docker mode status detection via `docker inspect`
- Host/user context added to status output
-
-### Output Improvements
-
- Colorized output for better visual feedback (green/red/yellow)
- Translated operation reports for success and failure cases
- Dual logging: `click.echo()` for user-facing messages, `logging` for debug
- `GRM_LOG_LEVEL` environment variable for controlling verbosity
- Full i18n support (all user-facing strings translated)
-
-### Internal Refactoring
-
- Validation moved from CLI layer to business layer
- Centralized API clients and HTTP status codes
- User-friendly Click errors with i18n
-
-## [0.2.0] - 2026-06-21
-
-### New CLI Commands
-
- `grm start <host>` — start a runner's systemd service
- `grm stop <host>` — stop a runner's systemd service
- `grm enable <host>` — enable a runner to start on boot
- `grm disable <host>` — disable a runner from starting on boot
- `grm status <host>` — check runner service status
- `grm remove <host>` — deregister and remove a runner
- `grm list-runners` — list all runners from the local registry
-
-### Runner Registry
-
- Runners are tracked in `~/.config/grm/runners.toml` for simplified CLI usage
- No need to specify `--url`, `--user`, `--key` for every command — the registry remembers
-
-### Multi-Instance Support
-
- systemd template units (`gitea-runner@.service`) for running multiple runners per host
- Per-instance config and data directories
-
-### Ansible Role Improvements
-
- Parameterized all hardcoded configuration values as Ansible variables
- Idempotence fixes for repeated runs
- Runner config converted from TOML to YAML format
- Registration timeout to prevent indefinite hangs
- Docker container entrypoint override and working directory fix for `.runner` persistence

 A lean command-line tool to automate the installation, configuration, and lifecycle management of Gitea Actions runners on Arch Linux, Ubuntu, and Debian hosts.

+Each runner runs in an isolated **rootless Docker** environment under a dedicated system user, enabling multiple runners to operate in parallel on the same host without conflicts. GRM handles the entire runner lifecycle — from initial installation and registration with Gitea, through start/stop/enable/disable operations, to clean removal with deregistration.

 > **Pronunciation:** GRM is short for *Gitea Runner Manager*, but say it like **ГРЪМ** (roughly "GRUM") — the Bulgarian word for **thunder**. An open-source project from **Oblachno** (облачно means *cloudy* in Bulgarian).

+## Why GRM?
+
+Managing Gitea Actions runners manually is tedious and error-prone: you need to create system users, set up rootless Docker, download and configure the runner binary, register it with Gitea, create systemd services, and set up Docker prune timers — all per runner instance. GRM automates this entire process with a single command, and ensures it is idempotent (safe to re-run).
+
+Key problems GRM solves:
+
+- **Isolation without root**: Each runner operates under a dedicated system user with its own rootless Docker daemon, so runners on the same host never interfere with each other or with the host's Docker installation.
+- **Reproducible setup**: The Ansible role is idempotent — running `grm install` twice produces zero changes on the second run, so it is safe for CI/CD pipelines and configuration management.
+- **Full lifecycle management**: Install, start, stop, enable (boot persistence), disable (deregister), update the binary, check status, and remove — all from one CLI.
+- **Local registry**: GRM stores connection metadata locally, so after installation you manage runners by name alone without repeating SSH credentials.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Rootless Docker isolation** — Each runner gets its own rootless Docker daemon under a dedicated system user (`grm-<name>`), with its own Docker socket at `/run/user/<UID>/docker.sock`.
+- **Multi-instance support** — Install and manage multiple isolated runners on the same host, each with independent users, data directories, and systemd user services.
+- **Idempotent Ansible role** — Safe to re-run; the role detects existing state and only applies changes when needed.
+- **Full lifecycle CLI** — `install`, `update`, `start`, `stop`, `enable`, `disable`, `status`, `remove`, `list` — all from a single `grm` command.
+- **Automatic integration testing** — Every installation runs an integration test that verifies the `.runner` registration file and systemd service state.
+- **Docker prune automation** — A systemd user timer automatically prunes old Docker images and volumes on a daily schedule.
+- **Local runner registry** — Connection details are stored in `~/.local/share/grm/runners.json`, so lifecycle commands work by runner name alone.
+- **Internationalisation** — Console messages support English, Bulgarian, German, Russian, Chinese, and Polish via the `GRM_LANG` environment variable.
+- **Security-conscious** — Secrets (registration tokens) are passed via temporary JSON files with `0600` permissions, never on the command line (CWE-214).
+- **Comprehensive CI/CD** — 100% test coverage, automated releases via conventional commits and git-cliff, Molecule tests across 4 OS platforms.

To see all available releases, run `git tag --sort=-version:refname` or check the [releases page](https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm/releases).

 > **Tokens:** You need two tokens from your Gitea instance — a **registration token** to register runners, and an **admin API token** for optional post-install verification. See [Getting Started](https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm/wiki/Getting-Started.-) for detailed setup instructions.

+## Prerequisites
+
+### On your local machine (where you run `grm`)
+
+- **Python 3.12+** — GRM targets Python 3.12 and requires it for development setup.
+- **Ansible** — Installed automatically by `make setup` (via pip). GRM delegates all remote operations to `ansible-playbook`.
+- **SSH access** — A private key that grants access to the target host(s) as a user with sudo privileges.
+
+### On the target host(s) (where runners will be installed)
+
+- **SSH server** — Reachable via the key specified with `--key`.
+- **Sudo access** — The SSH user must have sudo privileges for creating system users, installing packages, and configuring rootless Docker. By default, you will be prompted for the sudo password interactively. For automation, configure passwordless sudo and pass `--no-ask-become-pass`.
+- **Docker** — Installed automatically by the Ansible role (rootless mode). No pre-existing Docker installation is required.
+- **systemd** — Required for user services and lingering. All supported OSes ship with systemd.
+
+## Installation
+
+### Option 1: From source (recommended for full control)
+
+```bash
+git clone https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm.git
+cd grm
+git checkout $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)  # Latest stable release
+make setup
+source .venv/bin/activate
+```
+
+`make setup` performs the following:
+
+1. Verifies Python 3.12+ is installed
+2. Creates a virtualenv in `.venv`
+3. Installs all Python dependencies (including Ansible, Click, python-dotenv)
+4. Creates `.env` from `.env.example` if not present
+5. Installs development tools (actionlint, git-cliff, act_runner, checkmake)
+6. Sets up pre-commit hooks
+
+### Option 2: Via pip (for using GRM without the full repo)
+
+GRM is published to the Gitea PyPI registry at
+`https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/api/packages/oblachno-oss/pypi/simple`.
+The registry is publicly readable — no authentication required to install.
+
+**Quick install (one-off):**
+
+```bash
+pip install gitea-runner-manager --index-url https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/api/packages/oblachno-oss/pypi/simple
+```
+
+**Persistent configuration (recommended):**
+
+Add the registry to `~/.pip/pip.conf` so future `pip install` commands find
+GRM automatically:
+
+```ini
+[global]
+extra-index-url = https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/api/packages/oblachno-oss/pypi/simple
+```
+
+Then install normally:
+
+```bash
+pip install gitea-runner-manager
+```
+
+This installs the `grm` CLI and its Python dependencies. The Ansible playbooks
+and role are bundled with the package, so `grm install` works out of the box.
+For development or access to Make targets, clone the repository (Option 1).
+
+### Post-install configuration
+
+After installation, create your `.env` file:
+
+```bash
+cp .env.example .env
+# Edit .env with your Gitea URL and registration token
+```
+
+See the [Configuration](#configuration) section below for details.
+
+## CLI Commands Overview
+
+GRM provides a single `grm` command with subcommands for the full runner lifecycle:
+
+| Command | Description |
+|---------|-------------|
+| `grm install <host>` | Install and configure a runner on a remote host |
+| `grm update <host>` | Update the Gitea Runner binary on a remote host |
+| `grm start <name>` | Start a registered runner |
+| `grm stop <name>` | Stop a registered runner |
+| `grm restart <name>` | Restart a runner (stop, prune Docker images, start) |
+| `grm enable <name>` | Enable a runner to start on boot |
+| `grm disable <name>` | Disable and deregister a runner |
+| `grm status <name>` | Check the status of a registered runner |
+| `grm remove <name>` | Remove a runner completely (with remote cleanup) |
+| `grm remove <name> --force` | Remove only the local registry entry (skip remote cleanup) |
+| `grm list` | List all registered runners with live status |
+| `grm list --no-status` | List registered runners without SSH status checks |
+| `grm trigger-workflow <workflow_id>` | Trigger a Gitea Actions workflow via the API |
+| `grm trigger-workflow --list` | List available workflows in the repository |
+| `grm --version` | Show the installed version |
+
+All lifecycle commands (`start`, `stop`, `restart`, `enable`, `disable`, `status`, `remove`) work by runner name and pull connection details from the local registry. You can override any stored value with `--host`, `--user`, or `--key`.
+
+See the [CLI Commands](https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm/wiki/CLI-Commands.-) wiki page for full argument and option reference.
+
+## Configuration
+
+GRM reads configuration from a `.env` file in the current directory (loaded automatically via python-dotenv). You can also set environment variables directly.
+
+### Required variables
+
+| Variable | Description |
+|----------|-------------|
+| `GITEA_URL` | Your Gitea instance URL (e.g., `https://git.example.com`) |
+| `GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` | Runner registration token from Gitea (starts with `GR`) |
+
+### Optional variables
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `CI_GITEA_TOKEN` | — | Gitea admin API token for optional post-install API verification |
+| `GITEA_INTEGRATION_RETRIES` | `3` | Number of API check retries during integration test |
+| `GITEA_RUNNER_USER` | current login | Default SSH user (overrides `--user`) |
+| `GITEA_RUNNER_KEY` | — | Default SSH key path (overrides `--key`) |
+| `GITEA_RUNNER_LABELS` | — | Default runner labels (overrides `--labels`) |
+| `GRM_LANG` | `en` | UI language: `en`, `bg`, `de`, `ru`, `zh`, `pl` |
+| `GRM_LOG_LEVEL` | `INFO` | Console log level: `DEBUG`, `INFO`, `WARNING`, `ERROR`, `CRITICAL` |
+| `GRM_BECOME_PASSWORD_FILE` | — | Path to file containing sudo password (see [Sudo Password Handling](#sudo-password-handling)) |
+| `ANSIBLE_BECOME_PASSWORD_FILE` | — | Fallback sudo password file path (Ansible-native env var) |
+
+### Sudo Password Handling
+
+GRM delegates remote operations to Ansible, which uses `sudo` (become) on the target host. There are several ways to provide the sudo password, in priority order:
+
+1. **`--become-password-file <path>`** (CLI flag, global) — Read sudo password from a file. Works for all commands including `grm list`.
+2. **`GRM_BECOME_PASSWORD_FILE`** (env var) — Same as above, set in `.env` or environment.
+3. **`ANSIBLE_BECOME_PASSWORD_FILE`** (env var) — Fallback, Ansible-native env var.
+4. **Interactive prompt** — If none of the above are set, GRM prompts for the sudo password (hidden input).
+5. **Piped stdin** — When stdin is not a TTY, reads the first line: `echo 'password' | grm list`.
+6. **`--no-ask-become-pass`** — Skip sudo password entirely (use when the target user has passwordless sudo).
+
+For `grm list` specifically, the password is collected once and reused for all runner status checks via `--become-password-file`, avoiding stdin consumption issues when checking multiple runners.
+
+**Examples:**
+
+```bash
+# Interactive prompt (default)
+grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu
+
+# Password file (recommended for automation)
+echo 'my-sudo-pass' > ~/.grm-sudo-pass
+chmod 600 ~/.grm-sudo-pass
+grm --become-password-file ~/.grm-sudo-pass install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu
+
+# Env var (set in .env)
+GRM_BECOME_PASSWORD_FILE=~/.grm-sudo-pass
+grm list  # uses the file automatically
+
+# Piped stdin (for scripts)
+echo 'my-sudo-pass' | grm list
+
+# Passwordless sudo on target
+grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --no-ask-become-pass
+```
+
+### Verbose Output
+
+Pass `-v` / `--verbose` (global flag, before the subcommand) to enable Ansible verbose mode (`-v`):
+
+```bash
+grm --verbose install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu
+grm -v status prod-runner
+```
+
+### Runner Labels
+
+Runner labels control which jobs a runner accepts. They are set at installation time:
+
+- **`--labels "docker:docker://alpine:latest"`** — Set specific labels.
+- **`--labels ""`** — Explicitly set **no labels** (overrides `GITEA_RUNNER_LABELS` env var).
+- **No `--labels` flag** — Uses `GITEA_RUNNER_LABELS` env var if set, otherwise the Ansible role default.
+
+```bash
+# Custom labels
+grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --labels "docker:docker://alpine:latest,ubuntu-22.04:docker://ubuntu:22.04"
+
+# Explicitly no labels (overrides GITEA_RUNNER_LABELS env var)
+grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --labels ""
+
+# Use GITEA_RUNNER_LABELS from .env (or role default if unset)
+grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu
+```
+
+### Getting tokens
+
+**Registration token** (required): Navigate to your Gitea instance:
+
+- **Instance-level**: Site Administration → Actions → Runners → Create Registration Token
+- **Organization-level**: Organization → Settings → Actions → Runners → Create Registration Token
+- **Repository-level**: Repository → Settings → Actions → Runners → Create Registration Token
+
+Use instance-level tokens for shared runners, and repo-level tokens for dedicated runners.
+
+**Admin API token** (optional): Settings → Applications → Generate New Token, with the `admin` scope (or at minimum: `read:user`, `read:repository`, `read:admin`). When set, GRM queries the Gitea API after installation to confirm the runner appears in the runner list. This is purely informational and does not affect pass/fail.
+
+## Multi-Instance Support
+
+One of GRM's core features is the ability to run multiple isolated runners on the same host. Each runner instance gets:
+
+- **Dedicated system user**: `grm-<name>` with its own home directory at `/home/grm-<name>/`
+- **Rootless Docker daemon**: Isolated Docker socket at `/run/user/<UID>/docker.sock`
+- **Data directory**: `/var/lib/gitea-runner/<name>/`
+- **Config directory**: `/etc/gitea-runner/<name>/`
+- **Systemd user service**: `gitea-runner.service` (independent start/stop/enable)
+- **Docker prune timer**: Per-instance daily cleanup
+
+```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
+grm list
+```
+
+## Security Model
+
+GRM is designed with security as a first-class concern:
+
+- **Rootless Docker**: Each runner operates under a dedicated unprivileged system user. The Docker daemon runs in rootless mode, so containers never have root access to the host. User namespaces (`subuid`/`subgid`) are configured automatically.
+- **Dedicated users**: Each runner gets its own system user (`grm-<name>`) with lingering enabled, so the user's systemd services run without an active login session.
+- **Secret handling**: Registration tokens and admin tokens are never passed on the command line. They are written to temporary JSON files with `0600` permissions and passed to Ansible via `--extra-vars @tempfile`. The temp file is deleted immediately after execution. This prevents secrets from being visible in the process list (`ps aux`), addressing CWE-214.
+- **No shell injection**: The CLI never uses `shell=True` with subprocess. All Ansible commands are constructed as argument lists.
+- **Bandit security scan**: The CI pipeline runs Bandit on every PR to catch common Python security issues.
+
+## Supported Operating Systems
+
+GRM supports and tests the following operating systems:
+
+| OS | Versions | Package manager |
+|----|----------|-----------------|
+| Arch Linux | rolling | pacman |
+| Ubuntu | 22.04, 24.04 | apt |
+| Debian | 12 | apt |
+
+All supported OSes are tested in CI via Molecule scenarios on every PR that changes Ansible files. The platform matrix is defined in `devx.molecule.platforms` as the single source of truth.
+
+## Development Setup
+
+GRM uses a comprehensive development setup with 100% test coverage enforcement, multiple linters, and Molecule integration tests.
+
+### Quick development setup
+
+```bash
+git clone https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm.git
+cd grm
+git checkout $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)  # Latest stable release
+make setup
+source .venv/bin/activate
+```
+
+### Make targets
+
+| Target | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `make setup` | Full setup: venv, deps, hooks, CI tools |
+| `make lint-all` | ruff + pyright + bandit + ansible-lint + checkmake + actionlint |
+| `make pytest-cov` | Unit tests with 100% coverage enforcement |
+| `make test-unit` | Unit tests without coverage |
+| `make molecule` | All 6 Molecule scenarios on Ubuntu 22.04 |
+| `make molecule-all` | All 6 scenarios on all 4 supported OSes |
+| `make test-all` | pytest-cov + molecule |
+| `make workflow-lint` | Static lint of workflow YAML (actionlint) |
+| `make workflow-dryrun` | Dry-run all workflows in Docker |
+| `make workflow-check` | workflow-lint + workflow-dryrun |
+
+See the [Development Setup](https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm/wiki/Development-Setup.-) wiki page for full details.
+
+## Architecture Overview
+
+GRM consists of two layers:
+
+1. **Python CLI** (`src/gitea_runner_manager/`) — Built with Click, handles argument parsing, environment loading, i18n translations, and delegates to Ansible via the `ansible-playbook` subprocess. Secrets are passed via temporary JSON files to avoid exposure in the process list.
+
+2. **Ansible Role** (`ansible/roles/gitea-runner/`) — Idempotent role that creates a dedicated system user, sets up rootless Docker, installs the runner binary, creates a systemd user service, registers the runner with Gitea, and sets up a Docker prune timer.
+
+```
+grm install <host>
+  └── RunnerManager.install()
+      └── ansible-playbook ansible/install-runner.yml
+          └── role: gitea-runner
+              ├── user_setup.yml       (create per-runner system user + lingering)
+              ├── rootless_docker.yml  (rootless Docker setup under runner user)
+              ├── install_runner.yml   (download binary, config, register, service)
+              ├── prune.yml            (Docker prune timer)
+              └── integration_test.yml (validate service is active)
+```
+
+### Python modules
+
+| Module | Description |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `cli.py` | Click-based CLI entry point — defines all commands |
+| `runner_manager.py` | Ansible orchestration + registry integration |
+| `executor.py` | Ansible subprocess execution with log capture |
+| `registry.py` | Local JSON runner registry at `~/.local/share/grm/runners.json` |
+| `i18n.py` | Internationalisation (en, bg, de, ru, zh, pl) |
+| `exceptions.py` | Custom exceptions (`GRMError`, `AnsibleError`) |
+| `logging_config.py` | Logging to `~/.local/state/grm/logs/grm.log` |
+| `report.py` | Operation report tracking with step status |
+| `ui.py` | Colorised console output via Click |
+

 # Troubleshooting

-| Symptom | Likely Cause | Solution |
-|---------|-------------|----------|
-| Pre-commit rejects commit message | Missing conventional format or GRM-N prefix present | Use `feat: description` format without `GRM-N:` |
-| `make molecule` fails with `runner_name is undefined` | Verify playbook missing variable | Fixed in Phase 1.1; ensure you're on latest master |
-| CI molecule job fails | Docker not available on runner host | Ensure Gitea runner host has Docker installed and running |
-| Auto-merge doesn't trigger | Label not exactly `ready-to-merge` or CI checks not all green | Verify label spelling; check CI status |
-| Vikunja task not updated after merge | VIKUNJA_TOKEN expired or task ID missing from commit | Regenerate token; verify merge commit has `GRM-N:` prefix |
-| Post-merge can't find Vikunja task | Task not in project 6 or identifier mismatch | Verify task exists in Vikunja project 6 with correct identifier |
-| `make pytest-cov` fails | Coverage below 100% | Add tests for new code paths |
-| `devx.tools.configure_repo` fails | REPO_TOKEN missing or invalid | Set token with repo admin scope and re-run |
-| `configure_repo` sets wrong status checks | Stale `BRANCH_PROTECTION_CONFIG` | Updated to include `(pull_request)` suffix; re-run `configure_repo` |
-| Token visible in `ps aux` during install | Old version passed tokens via command line | Fixed: tokens now passed via temp file with `0600` permissions |
-| `remove-runner.yml` leaves lingering enabled | Old version didn't disable lingering | Fixed: now runs `loginctl disable-linger` and removes subuid/subgid |
-| apt cache update always reports `changed` | `cache_valid_time: 0` forced update every run | Fixed: changed to `cache_valid_time: 3600` |
-| Prune/service templates created even when `docker_rootless_setup: false` | Template tasks not guarded | Fixed: template creation now guarded by `docker_rootless_setup` |

+## Overview
+
+GRM is a two-layer tool: a Python CLI (built with Click) that delegates to an idempotent Ansible role for all remote operations. The CLI handles argument parsing, environment loading, internationalisation, and local registry management. The Ansible role handles the actual runner setup — creating dedicated system users, configuring rootless Docker, downloading and registering the runner binary, creating systemd user services, and setting up Docker prune timers.
+
+### Key capabilities
+
+- **Rootless Docker isolation** — Each runner gets its own rootless Docker daemon under a dedicated system user (`grm-<name>`).

@@ -5,6 +5,21 @@ GRM consists of two layers:
 1. **Python CLI** (`src/gitea_runner_manager/`) — built with Click, handles argument parsing, environment loading, i18n translations, and delegates to Ansible via the `ansible-playbook` subprocess.
 2. **Ansible Role** (`ansible/roles/gitea-runner/`) — idempotent role that creates a dedicated system user, sets up rootless Docker, installs the runner binary, creates a systemd user service, and registers the runner with Gitea.

+## High-Level Design
+
+The CLI is a thin orchestration layer. It does not perform any remote operations itself — every action (install, update, start, stop, etc.) is delegated to an Ansible playbook. The CLI's responsibilities are:
+
+- Parsing command-line arguments and options
+- Loading configuration from `.env` (via python-dotenv)
+- Resolving runner connection details from the local registry
+- Writing secrets to temporary JSON files (CWE-214 mitigation)
+- Constructing the `ansible-playbook` command with appropriate inventory, user, key, and extra-vars
+- Capturing and streaming Ansible output to log files
+- Maintaining the local runner registry (`~/.local/share/grm/runners.json`)
+- Providing colorised console output and operation reports
+
+The Ansible role handles all remote state: user creation, package installation, Docker configuration, binary download, runner registration, systemd service management, and Docker prune timers.

+## Data Flow
+
+### Installation flow
+
+1. User runs `grm install <host> --user <user> --key <key> --name <name>`
+2. CLI loads `.env` for `GITEA_URL` and `GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN`
+3. `RunnerManager.install()` constructs extra-vars dict with registration token, runner name, Gitea URL, and optional admin token/labels
+4. Extra-vars are written to a temporary JSON file with `0600` permissions
+5. `AnsibleExecutor.run()` invokes `ansible-playbook ansible/install-runner.yml` with the temp file via `--extra-vars @tempfile`
+6. Ansible connects to the remote host via SSH and executes the role:
+   - Creates system user `grm-<name>` with lingering
+   - Installs Docker packages and sets up rootless Docker
+   - Downloads the gitea_runner binary
+   - Creates the runner config file
+   - Registers the runner with Gitea
+   - Creates and starts the systemd user service
+   - Sets up the Docker prune timer
+   - Runs the integration test (verifies `.runner` file and service state)
+7. Ansible output is streamed to a timestamped log file at `~/.local/state/grm/logs/ansible-<timestamp>.log`
+8. On success, the runner is added to the local registry at `~/.local/share/grm/runners.json`
+9. The temporary extra-vars file is deleted
+
+### Lifecycle command flow
+
+1. User runs `grm <command> <runner_name>` (e.g., `grm stop prod-runner`)
+2. `RunnerManager._resolve_runner()` looks up the runner in the local registry
+3. If `--host` and `--user` are provided, they override registry values
+4. The corresponding playbook is executed (e.g., `stop-runner.yml`)
+5. Ansible connects to the remote host and performs the action
+
+### List command flow
+
+1. User runs `grm list`
+2. `RunnerManager.list_runners()` reads all entries from the local registry
+3. For each runner, an Ansible ad-hoc command checks `systemctl --user is-active gitea-runner`
+4. Results are displayed in a table with columns: NAME, HOST, USER, LABELS, STATUS
+
+## Security Model
+
+### Rootless Docker
+
+Each runner operates under a dedicated unprivileged system user. The Docker daemon runs in rootless mode via `dockerd-rootless-setuptool.sh install`, which configures:
+
+- User namespace mapping via `/etc/subuid` and `/etc/subgid` (range: 100000-165535)
+- Rootless Docker socket at `/run/user/<UID>/docker.sock`
+- `slirp4netns` for user-mode networking
+- `fuse-overlayfs` for rootless container storage
+
+Containers launched by the runner never have root access to the host. The rootless Docker daemon is started as a systemd user service and persists via lingering.
+
+### Secret handling
+
+Registration tokens and admin API tokens are never exposed on the command line. The `RunnerManager._extra_vars_file()` context manager:
+
+1. Creates a temporary file via `tempfile.mkstemp()`
+2. Writes the extra-vars JSON to the file
+3. Sets permissions to `0600` (owner read/write only)
+4. Passes the file to Ansible via `--extra-vars @tempfile`
+5. Deletes the file in a `finally` block, even if an exception occurs
+
+This prevents secrets from appearing in the process list (`ps aux`), addressing CWE-214.
+
+### No shell injection
+
+The CLI never uses `shell=True` with subprocess. All Ansible commands are constructed as argument lists (`list[str]`), preventing shell injection attacks. The `subprocess.Popen` and `subprocess.run` calls are marked with `nosec` comments after security review.
+
+### Bandit security scanning
+
+The CI pipeline runs Bandit on every PR to catch common Python security issues. The scan covers all source code in `src/`.

 # CI/CD Workflow

+GRM uses a fully automated CI/CD pipeline built on Gitea Actions. Every change to master goes through a mandatory PR workflow with branch protection, automated review, and auto-merge. Releases are automated via git-cliff and conventional commits.
+
+## Workflow Overview
+
+| Workflow | Trigger | Purpose |
+|----------|---------|---------|
+| `ci.yml` | PR opened/synchronized | Quality checks (lint, test, coverage) + molecule tests |
+| `auto-merge.yml` | PR labeled `ready-to-merge` | Validates and squash-merges the PR |
+| `post-merge.yml` | Push to `master` | Release, wiki sync, badges, Vikunja task update |
+| `publish.yml` | Tag push (`v*`) | Build and publish package to PyPI, create Gitea release |

+## ADR-007: Secrets via Temporary JSON Files (CWE-214)
+
+**Date:** Project inception
+
+**Decision:** Pass secrets (registration tokens, admin API tokens) to Ansible via temporary JSON files with `0600` permissions, never on the command line.
+
+**Rationale:** Passing secrets as command-line arguments (e.g., `--extra-vars '{"token": "..."}'`) makes them visible in the process list (`ps aux`), which is a known security weakness (CWE-214). The `RunnerManager._extra_vars_file()` context manager writes extra-vars to a temporary file via `tempfile.mkstemp()`, sets permissions to `0600`, passes the file to Ansible via `--extra-vars @tempfile`, and deletes the file in a `finally` block — even if an exception occurs. This ensures secrets are never visible in the process list.

+## ADR-008: Smart CI — User-Facing vs Workflow-Only Change Classification
+
+**Date:** 2026-06-21 (v0.2.0 unreleased)
+
+**Decision:** Classify changed files into user-facing and workflow-only categories using `devx.ci.classify_changes`. Only user-facing changes trigger a release; workflow-only changes (CI, docs, tests, lint config) do not.
+
+**Rationale:** Not all changes require a new release. CI workflow updates, documentation improvements, and test additions should not produce a new version tag. The classification is config-driven via `[tool.devx.classify]` in `pyproject.toml`. The strategy is safe-by-default: any file NOT in the explicit workflow-only allowlist is treated as user-facing, preventing new file types from accidentally skipping releases. User-facing paths include `src/gitea_runner_manager/**` (except `__init__.py`) and `ansible/**`. Workflow-only paths include `.gitea/**`, `docs/**`, `tests/**`, `scripts/**`, and various config files.

+## ADR-009: devx Package Separation
+
+**Date:** 2026-06-21 (v0.6.2)
+
+**Decision:** Separate CI/CD and development tooling into the `devx` package (installed from git), keeping the GRM tool itself self-contained in `src/gitea_runner_manager/`.
+
+**Rationale:** The GRM CLI tool must be self-contained — it never imports from devx. This ensures the installed package has no dependency on CI infrastructure. devx MAY import from `gitea_runner_manager` (one-way dependency), as it uses the tool's API clients, config, and i18n for CI automation. Cross-module imports within devx are allowed. This separation was formalised when scripts were migrated from the `scripts/` directory to the devx package in GRM-64.

+## ADR-010: Dynamic Runner Discovery for Molecule CI
+
+**Date:** 2026-06-21 (v0.5.0+)
+
+**Decision:** Molecule tests are distributed across available Gitea Actions runners dynamically via `devx.molecule.discover_runners`, which queries the Gitea API for runners at all levels (repo, org, instance) and generates a dynamic matrix.
+
+**Rationale:** Hardcoding the number of CI runners would require manual updates when runners are added or removed. Dynamic discovery auto-detects repo/org-level runners via the API. For instance-level runners (which may not be visible without admin scope), it falls back to the `MOLECULE_RUNNERS` repo variable, then to a default of 3. The workflow automatically scales the matrix to match available runners, distributing test pairs evenly.

+## Prerequisites
+
+- **Python 3.12+** — Required. The Makefile verifies this before creating the venv. Use `pyenv` to manage Python versions if needed.
+- **Git** — For cloning the repository and checking out release tags.
+- **Docker** — Only needed for running Molecule tests locally (`make molecule`).
+- **Go** — Only needed if you want to install `checkmake` manually (alternatively, `make setup` installs it via `devx.tools.install_checkmake`).
+
 ## Setup Development Environment

+### Step 1: Clone and checkout latest release
+
 ```bash
-make setup        # Creates venv, installs deps, sets up hooks
+git clone https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm.git
+cd grm
+git checkout $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)  # Checkout latest stable release
+```
+
+> **Important:** Always checkout the latest release tag before running `make setup`. The `master` branch may contain unreleased changes that are not yet stable. To see all available releases, run `git tag --sort=-version:refname` or check the [releases page](https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm/releases).
+
+### Step 2: Ensure Python 3.12+ is available
+
+If you use pyenv:
+
+```bash
+pyenv install 3.12
+pyenv local 3.12
+```
+
+Verify your Python version:
+
+```bash
+python3 --version  # Must be 3.12 or higher

+| `deregister` | Runner deregistration | Creates a fake `.runner` file, then runs the deregister tasks; verifies the `.runner` file is removed |
+| `update` | Runner binary update | Converge, then side_effect runs the update playbook; verifies the binary is updated |
+| `remove` | Runner removal | Converge, then side_effect runs the remove playbook; verifies the user, directories, and service files are cleaned up |

 ### Platforms

-4 platforms are tested: `ubuntu-2204`, `ubuntu-2404`, `debian-12`, `archlinux`.
+4 platforms are tested:

-The platform list is defined in `devx.molecule.distribute_molecule` (single source of truth).
+| Platform | Docker image |
+|----------|-------------|
+| `ubuntu-2204` | `geerlingguy/docker-ubuntu2204-ansible` |
+| `ubuntu-2404` | `geerlingguy/docker-ubuntu2404-ansible` |
+| `debian-12` | `geerlingguy/docker-debian12-ansible` |

+
+The platform list is defined in `devx.molecule.platforms` (single source of truth), shared between `devx.molecule.distribute_molecule` (CI) and `devx.molecule.molecule_all` (local dev tool).

 ### CI Test Distribution

-CI runs all 6 scenarios × 4 platforms (24 test pairs) distributed across 3 parallel runners.
+CI runs all 6 scenarios x 4 platforms (24 test pairs) distributed across available Gitea Actions runners.

-From `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml`, the `molecule-tests` job uses a matrix of `runner-index: [0, 1, 2]` and calls `python -m devx.molecule.distribute_molecule --runner-index <index> --max-runners 3` to discover assigned test pairs, then runs `python -m devx.molecule.molecule_ci_guard` with those pairs.
+The `discover-runners` job runs `devx.molecule.discover_runners` which queries the Gitea API for registered runners at three levels (repo, org, instance) and generates a dynamic matrix. If the API query fails (e.g., no admin access for instance-level runners), it falls back to the `MOLECULE_RUNNERS` repo variable, then to a default of 3.

-## Integration Tests
+The `molecule-tests` job uses `fromJSON()` to consume the dynamic matrix, and passes the runner count to `python -m devx.molecule.distribute_molecule --max-runners` so test pairs are evenly distributed.

-```bash
-make test-integration
-```
+`devx.molecule.distribute_molecule` discovers all molecule scenarios under `ansible/roles/*/molecule/` and crosses them with the supported OS platform matrix, then splits the resulting test pairs evenly across the requested number of runners. Each pair is encoded as `scenario|platform_name|platform_image|platform_command`.

-Tests the full CLI lifecycle commands end-to-end (mocked executor boundary).
+`devx.molecule.molecule_ci_guard` runs the actual molecule test for a given test pair, with CI context (Gitea URL, token, run ID) for reporting results back to the commit status API.

-From the `Makefile`:
+### Path-based CI filtering

- `test-integration` — `pytest tests/integration/ -v --no-cov`
+The CI workflow includes a `detect-changes` job that checks whether any files under `ansible/` or `.ansible-lint` have changed. If no Ansible files are changed, molecule tests are skipped — this prevents non-Ansible changes (e.g., Python scripts, workflow YAML, docs) from being blocked by molecule test infrastructure flakiness.

 ## Full Test Suite

 ```bash
-make test-all      # Runs unit tests + linters + molecule
+make test-all      # Runs pytest-cov + molecule (Ubuntu 22.04)

-`REPO_TOKEN` is a Gitea admin API token used for optional post-install verification. When set, GRM queries the Gitea API after installation to confirm the runner appears in the runner list. This is purely informational — the integration test passes/fails based on the `.runner` file and systemd service, not the API check.
+`CI_GITEA_TOKEN` is a Gitea admin API token used for optional post-install verification. When set, GRM queries the Gitea API after installation to confirm the runner appears in the runner list. This is purely informational — the integration test passes/fails based on the `.runner` file and systemd service, not the API check.

 To generate one: Settings → Applications → Generate New Token, with the `admin` scope (or at minimum `read:user`, `read:repository`, `read:admin`).

 If you skip it, GRM will still verify the runner correctly — it just won't show the extra API confirmation.

-### How do I skip the sudo password prompt for automation?
+## 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?
+On the remote host, add a sudoers entry:
+
+```bash
+echo "ubuntu ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL" | sudo tee /etc/sudoers.d/grm
+```
+
+Then use:
+
+```bash
+grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --key ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 --name prod-runner --no-ask-become-pass
+```
+
+## 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?
+```bash
+grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --name workflow-runner
+grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --name build-runner
+grm list
+```
+
+Runners on the same host never interfere with each other or with the host's Docker installation.
+
+## 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?
+Common causes:
+- Registration token expired — generate a new one from Gitea
+- Network connectivity issue between the runner host and Gitea
+- Rootless Docker daemon not running — check `sudo -u grm-<name> systemctl --user status docker`
+- Lingering not enabled — check `loginctl show-user grm-<name> | grep Linger`
+
+## 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?
+## 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.

+
+## How do I update the gitea_runner binary?
+
+Use the `grm update` command:
+
+```bash
+grm update 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu
+```
+
+To update to a specific version:
+
+```bash
+grm update 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --version 1.0.8
+```
+
+The update command downloads the new binary and replaces the existing one at `/usr/local/bin/gitea_runner`. The runner service is restarted automatically.
+
+## How do I completely remove a runner?
+
+Use the `grm remove` command:
+
+```bash
+grm remove prod-runner --token <registration-token>
+```
+
+This deregisters the runner from Gitea, stops and disables the systemd service, removes the system user, deletes data and config directories, removes subuid/subgid entries, disables lingering, and removes the entry from the local registry.
+
+If the remote host is already gone or unreachable, use `--force` to skip remote cleanup and only remove the local registry entry:
+
+```bash
+grm remove prod-runner --force
+```
+
+## What is the difference between disable and remove?
+
+- **`grm disable <name>`** — Deregisters the runner from Gitea and stops the service, but leaves the user, directories, and service files in place. The runner can be re-enabled later with `grm enable` and re-registered with a new token.
+- **`grm remove <name>`** — Completely removes the runner: deregisters from Gitea, stops and disables the service, removes the system user, deletes all directories, and removes the local registry entry. This is irreversible.
+
+## What operating systems are supported?
+
+GRM supports Arch Linux (rolling), Ubuntu 22.04/24.04, and Debian 12. All supported OSes are tested in CI via Molecule scenarios on every PR that changes Ansible files.
+
+## How do I change the UI language?
+
+Set the `GRM_LANG` environment variable to one of the supported languages: `en` (English, default), `bg` (Bulgarian), `de` (German), `ru` (Russian), `zh` (Chinese), `pl` (Polish).
+
+```bash
+GRM_LANG=bg grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --name prod-runner
+```
+
+Or set it in your `.env` file:
+
+```bash
+GRM_LANG=bg
+```
+
+## How do I enable debug logging?
+
+Set the `GRM_LOG_LEVEL` environment variable to `DEBUG`:
+
+```bash
+GRM_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --name prod-runner
+```
+
+The log file at `~/.local/state/grm/logs/grm.log` always captures DEBUG level regardless of this setting. Ansible execution logs are stored in timestamped files at `~/.local/state/grm/logs/ansible-<timestamp>.log`.
+
+## What runner labels should I use?
+
+By default, runners are registered with `docker,ubuntu-latest:docker://runner-images:ubuntu-22.04`. You can override this with `--labels` or the `GITEA_RUNNER_LABELS` environment variable.
+
+Use an official Gitea runner image with Node.js, Python, and Docker CLI. Avoid bare OS images like `alpine:latest` because `actions/checkout@v4` needs Node.js.
+
+Example:
+
+```bash
+grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --name prod-runner \
+  --labels "docker:docker://gitea/runner-images:ubuntu-latest"
+```
+
+## Is GRM secure?
+
+Yes. GRM is designed with security as a first-class concern:
+
+- **Rootless Docker**: Each runner operates under a dedicated unprivileged system user. Containers never have root access to the host.
+- **Secret handling**: Registration tokens are passed via temporary JSON files with `0600` permissions, never on the command line (CWE-214).
+- **No shell injection**: The CLI never uses `shell=True` with subprocess.
+- **Bandit security scan**: The CI pipeline runs Bandit on every PR.
+
+## Can I install GRM via pip?
+
+Yes:
+
+```bash
+pip install gitea-runner-manager
+```
+
+This installs the `grm` CLI and its Python dependencies. The Ansible playbooks and role are bundled with the package. For development or access to Make targets, clone the repository instead.
+
+## How does GRM handle idempotence?
+
+The Ansible role is idempotent — running `grm install` twice produces zero changes on the second run. Each task checks for existing state before making changes. For example:
+
+- User creation uses `ansible.builtin.user` which only creates if the user doesn't exist
+- Package installation uses `state: present` which only installs if not already installed
+- Template creation uses `ansible.builtin.template` which only writes if the content changed
+- Rootless Docker setup uses `creates:` to skip if already configured
+
+This makes GRM safe for CI/CD pipelines and configuration management.

 # Installation

-> **Before you start:** Make sure you have cloned the repo and checked out the latest stable release tag. See [Getting Started](https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm/wiki/Getting-Started.-) for setup instructions. Do not run from `master` — it may contain unreleased changes.

 ## 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.
+### On your local machine (where you run `grm`)
+
+- **Python 3.12+** — GRM targets Python 3.12 and requires it for development setup. Use `pyenv` if you need to manage multiple Python versions.
+- **Ansible** — Installed automatically by `make setup` (via pip). GRM delegates all remote operations to `ansible-playbook`.
+- **SSH key** — A private key that grants access to the target host(s) as a user with sudo privileges.
+
+### On the target host(s) (where runners will be installed)
+
+- **SSH server** — 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`.
- **Gitea registration token** — You need a runner registration token from your Gitea instance. See [Getting Started](https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm/wiki/Getting-Started.-) for detailed instructions on obtaining tokens.
+- **Gitea registration token** — You need a runner registration token from your Gitea instance. See [Getting Started](Getting-Started) for detailed instructions on obtaining tokens.
+- **systemd** — Required for user services and lingering. All supported OSes ship with systemd.
+- **Docker** — Installed automatically by the Ansible role (rootless mode). No pre-existing Docker installation is required.

+## Installation Methods
+
+### Method 1: From source (recommended for full control)
+
+```bash
+git clone https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/oblachno-oss/grm.git
+cd grm
+git checkout $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)  # Latest stable release
+make setup
+source .venv/bin/activate
+```
+
+`make setup` performs the following:
+
+1. Verifies Python 3.12+ is installed
+2. Creates a virtualenv in `.venv`
+3. Installs all Python dependencies (including Ansible, Click, python-dotenv)
+4. Creates `.env` from `.env.example` if not present
+5. Installs development tools (actionlint, git-cliff, act_runner, checkmake)
+6. Sets up pre-commit hooks
+
+### Method 2: Via pip
+
+GRM is published to the Gitea PyPI registry at
+`https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/api/packages/oblachno-oss/pypi/simple`.
+The registry is publicly readable — no authentication required to install.
+
+**Quick install (one-off):**
+
+```bash
+pip install gitea-runner-manager --index-url https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/api/packages/oblachno-oss/pypi/simple
+```
+
+**Persistent configuration (recommended):**
+
+Add the registry to `~/.pip/pip.conf`:
+
+```ini
+[global]
+extra-index-url = https://git.oblachno.oblachno.fyi/api/packages/oblachno-oss/pypi/simple
+```
+
+Then install normally:
+
+```bash
+pip install gitea-runner-manager
+```
+
+This installs the `grm` CLI and its Python dependencies. The Ansible playbooks
+and role are bundled with the package, so `grm install` works out of the box.
+For development or access to Make targets, clone the repository (Method 1).
+
+### Post-install configuration
+
+After installation, create your `.env` file:
+
+```bash
+cp .env.example .env
+# Edit .env with your Gitea URL and registration token
+```
+
+Required variables:
+
+| Variable | Description |
+|----------|-------------|
+| `GITEA_URL` | Your Gitea instance URL (e.g., `https://git.example.com`) |
+| `GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` | Runner registration token from Gitea (starts with `GR`) |
+

 # Troubleshooting

-## "Event loop is closed" warning
+## Installation Issues

-This is a harmless cleanup traceback from Molecule's Docker driver when the test process is interrupted. It does not indicate a test failure.
+### Ansible connection fails (UNREACHABLE)

-## Runner appears offline after installation
+**Symptom:** Ansible reports `UNREACHABLE` when trying to connect to the target host.
+
+**Causes and solutions:**
+
+- **SSH key not found or wrong path** — Verify the key path with `--key`. The key must be readable by the user running `grm`.
+- **SSH user does not exist on the target** — Verify the `--user` argument. The user must exist on the remote host and have sudo privileges.
+- **Host is not reachable** — Verify the host IP/hostname with `ping` and `ssh -u <user> <host>`.
+- **SSH port is not 22** — GRM uses the default SSH port. If your host uses a different port, you may need to configure SSH config (`~/.ssh/config`) with the appropriate port.
+
+### Sudo password prompt fails or is not displayed
+
+**Symptom:** The sudo password prompt does not appear or the command hangs.
+
+**Causes and solutions:**
+
+- **Non-interactive session** — If running in a CI/CD pipeline or script without a TTY, the password prompt cannot be displayed. Configure passwordless sudo on the remote host and pass `--no-ask-become-pass`.
+- **Wrong sudo password** — Ensure you are entering the correct sudo password for the remote user.
+
+### GITEA_URL must be set
+
+**Symptom:** Error message `GITEA_URL must be set (or pass --url)`.
+
+**Solution:** Set `GITEA_URL` in your `.env` file or pass it via `--url`:
+
+```bash
+# In .env
+GITEA_URL=https://git.example.com
+
+# Or on the command line
+grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --url https://git.example.com
+```
+
+### GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN must be set
+
+**Symptom:** Error message `GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN must be set (or pass --token)`.
+
+**Solution:** Set `GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` in your `.env` file or pass it via `--token`. The token must be a valid registration token from your Gitea instance (it starts with `GR`).
+
+## Runner Issues
+
+### Runner appears offline after installation

 - Check that the `GITEA_URL` and `GITEA_REGISTRATION_TOKEN` environment variables are correct.
 - Verify the registration token has not expired — generate a new one from Gitea if needed (Site Administration → Actions → Runners → Create Registration Token).
 - Verify the runner service is running: `sudo -u grm-<name> systemctl --user status gitea-runner`.
- Check logs for registration errors.
+- Check logs for registration errors: `sudo -u grm-<name> journalctl --user -u gitea-runner -f`.
+- Confirm the runner appears in the Gitea UI under **Actions → Runners**. If it shows as offline, the runner daemon may not be polling — check network connectivity between the runner host and Gitea.

-## Integration test fails
+### Runner service fails to start
+
+- Check the service status: `sudo -u grm-<name> systemctl --user status gitea-runner`
+- Check logs: `sudo -u grm-<name> journalctl --user -u gitea-runner -f`
+- Verify the runner binary exists: `ls -la /usr/local/bin/gitea_runner`
+- Verify the config file exists: `ls -la /etc/gitea-runner/<name>/config.yaml`
+- Verify the `.runner` registration file exists: `ls -la /var/lib/gitea-runner/<name>/.runner`
+
+### 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`. If not enabled, run `sudo loginctl enable-linger grm-<name>`.
+- Verify subuid/subgid entries exist: `grep grm-<name> /etc/subuid /etc/subgid`. If missing, the rootless Docker setup will fail.
+
+### Runner not found in registry
+
+**Symptom:** Error message `Runner '<name>' not found in registry. Use 'grm install' first or provide --host and --user.`
+
+**Solution:** The runner was not installed via `grm install`, or the registry file was deleted. Either:
+
+1. Install the runner first: `grm install <host> --user <user> --name <name>`
+2. Or provide explicit connection details: `grm status <name> --host <host> --user <user>`
+
+## Integration Test Issues
+
+### 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
   - The registration token is valid and has not expired
-   - Runner logs for registration errors
+   - Runner logs for registration errors: `sudo -u grm-<name> journalctl --user -u gitea-runner`
   - The `.runner` file should exist at `/var/lib/gitea-runner/<name>/.runner`
+   - The `.runner` file should contain valid JSON with `id`, `uuid`, `token`, `address` fields

 2. **Service not running** — Daemon failed to start. Check:
   - `sudo -u grm-<name> systemctl --user status gitea-runner`
-   - Logs for connection errors
+   - Logs for connection errors: `sudo -u grm-<name> journalctl --user -u gitea-runner`
+   - Verify the rootless Docker daemon is running (see above)

-## Rootless Docker: service fails to start
+### API verification shows error status

- 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`.
+If `CI_GITEA_TOKEN` is set, the integration test queries the Gitea API. If the API returns `401` or `403`, the token does not have sufficient permissions. This is **informational only** and does not affect pass/fail. The test passes as long as the `.runner` file exists and the systemd service is active.
+
+## Logging and Diagnostics
+
+### Enable debug logging
+
+```bash
+GRM_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG grm install 192.168.1.10 --user ubuntu --name prod-runner

+
+The pre-commit hook validates that commit messages follow conventional commit format (`feat:`, `fix:`, `docs:`, etc.). The `GRM-N:` prefix is not allowed on branch commits — use it only in PR titles.
+
+**Correct:**

+```
+
+**Incorrect:**
+```
+GRM-33: add new runner label option
+update README
+```
+
+### `make pytest-cov` fails with coverage below 100%
+
+Add tests for any new code paths. The coverage requirement is strict (`--cov-fail-under=100`). Run `make pytest-cov` locally to see which lines are not covered:
+
+```bash
+make pytest-cov
+# The output shows "Missing" lines for each file
+```
+
+### `make molecule` fails with Docker not available
+
+Molecule requires Docker to be installed and running on your machine. Verify:
