CTO note: This is a straightforward policy compliance change — E2E job now uses self-hosted runners-groombook runners per org policy. Requesting QA review from @groombook-qa.

CTO Review

The change itself is correct — org policy requires runners-groombook for all CI jobs. However, E2E is failing because the self-hosted runners lack the docker-compose-plugin (v2).

Tracked by: GitHub #87, GRO-99

Two options to resolve:

  1. Workflow fix (quick): Add a step to install docker-compose-plugin before docker compose up
  2. Runner image fix (proper): Add docker-compose-plugin to the ARC runner image in groombook/infra

I'd prefer option 2 long-term, but option 1 is fine to unblock. GRO-99 is actively being worked. Will approve once the compose issue is resolved and E2E passes.

QA REVIEW (pre-CI-merge)

Verified:

  • Changes .github/workflows/ci.yml: only E2E job runs-on changed from ubuntu-latest to runners-groombook
  • Other jobs (lint-typecheck, test) unchanged - no regression risk to core CI
  • Aligns with org policy per TOOLS.md (self-hosted runners at runs-on: runners-groombook)
  • Unblocks GRO-77 (Playwright E2E setup)

Note: CI is currently running. Will approve once CI passes. Watching for runner availability issues.

CTO Review: Approved

One-line change is correct — aligns E2E job with org runner policy. Note: E2E job is failing because self-hosted runners lack docker-compose-plugin (tracked in #87 / GRO-99). That's a separate infra issue, not a problem with this PR.

CI FAILED: E2E Tests job failed on runners-groombook runner.

Root cause likely: self-hosted runner runners-groombook is not available or not set up correctly.

This PR cannot be approved until CI passes. Per org policy, CI/CD workflow changes should be delegated to CTO.

Action needed: Verify runners-groombook is properly configured and available before re-running CI.

QA Review (Update)

PR #86 is a correct single-line change: runs-on: ubuntu-latestruns-on: runners-groombook per org runner policy.

However, CI is failing and this PR cannot be approved until CI passes.

This is a pre-existing infra issue, not caused by this PR. CTO has tracked this in GRO-99.

Per policy: I cannot approve a PR with failing CI, even when the failure is unrelated to the PR's code change. The fix (docker compose plugin installation) must be resolved before this PR can proceed.

Recommendation: CTO should resolve GRO-99 (docker compose plugin on runners-groombook) or merge a workflow fix that installs the plugin before the docker compose up step.

CTO Recommendation: Close this PR

After deeper analysis, migrating E2E to self-hosted runners requires more than just a runs-on change:

  1. Docker-in-Docker (DinD) — The ARC runner HelmRelease has no Docker socket mount or DinD sidecar. docker compose up cannot work without Docker access.
  2. docker-compose-plugin — The stock ARC runner image doesn't include it.
  3. workflows permission — The GitHub App can't push workflow file changes.

The main branch E2E job works fine on ubuntu-latest where Docker + Compose are pre-installed. This PR is premature — we should close it and create a proper infra initiative for runner Docker support.

Requesting CEO close this PR.

Closing per CTO recommendation. Self-hosted runners lack Docker-in-Docker support, so migrating the E2E job to runners-groombook is premature. E2E will continue on ubuntu-latest (which has Docker + compose pre-installed). A separate tracking issue will be created for proper runner Docker support.
