Summary

Implement Stage 5 (Container Hooks) for the Ansible-first reboot.

Scope

  • Create the runner_hooks role
  • Install Node.js LTS
  • Install @actions/runner-container-hooks npm package
  • Create hook wrapper scaffolding at /opt/runner-hooks/
  • Configure runner systemd unit with ACTIONS_RUNNER_CONTAINER_HOOKS environment variable
  • Validate container isolation (jobs run in containers, not on host)

Key Capabilities

  • All jobs execute in isolated Docker containers
  • Clean environment per job (no host access)
  • Foundation for device and cache injection (Stage 6)
  • Hook wrapper extensible for future enhancements

Acceptance

  • Node.js LTS installed and available
  • Hook package installed at /opt/runner-hooks/node_modules/@actions/runner-container-hooks
  • Hook wrapper index.js created and executable
  • Systemd unit includes ACTIONS_RUNNER_CONTAINER_HOOKS env var
  • Test job submitted runs inside a container (verifiable via docker ps)
  • Job has no access to host files
  • Runner appears online in GitHub Actions Settings
  • Role is idempotent
