Merlin's Pipeline Runner

Droid

๐Ÿ“–About

Merlin's Pipeline Runner is a droid in the catalogue, owned by Merlin. Its purpose is to run builds approved by Elrond's dispatcher.

๐Ÿ“–Usage

Readers would encounter it when an approved build needs to run as part of the estate's work. Elrond's dispatcher decides what to build; the runner carries out the build.

๐Ÿ“–Purpose

Run the build for an execution Elrond's dispatcher has already approved, in a process of its own under Merlin's OS login.

๐Ÿ“–Duties

Read approved executions that have no pipeline run; run one build at a time; refuse entirely while the pipeline switch is off.

๐Ÿ“–Constraints

Never decides WHAT to build โ€” Elrond's dispatcher owns that and records it by approving the execution. Never runs a prerequisite on its own; a prerequisite is executed by its parent's build. Runs under the merlin OS login, which holds the duty-ringfence grant, so each build role can execute as itself.
