The GitLab pipeline already mirrors github's checks/security/test/docs gates
(more thoroughly, in places), but its release stage built only the node binary
(pezkuwi + workers). github's release.yml additionally builds the deployable
runtime WASM (pezkuwichain / asset-hub-pezkuwichain / people-pezkuwichain) and
publishes the blake2-256 authorize_upgrade hash — the fund-critical artifact that
governance authorizes on-chain and anyone can reproduce.
Add an equivalent build-runtime-wasm job (matrix over the 3 deployable runtimes,
blake2-256 + sha256 digest, artifacts) on v*/runtime-* tags, pinned to a single
runner for hash reproducibility, so gitlab.com produces the same verifiable
release artifact as github.com. Also trigger pipelines on runtime-* tags.
Make this monorepo's tracked tree identical to the deployed github repo
(github.com/pezkuwichain/pezkuwi-DKS): all RC/AH/People runtimes and framework
carry the mainnet fixes (incl. U128CurrencyToVote everywhere, so the staking
election stall cannot recur), and tools/usdt-bridge matches the current,
public-safe custody tooling (real config/deploy units gitignored, secret-file
locations and server IPs stripped, sanitized *.example templates committed).
Only exception to the mirror: GitLab-native CI is preserved (.gitlab-ci.yml and
.gitlab/), to be rebuilt to match the github CI pipeline in a follow-up.
Same silent-loss pattern as the previous connect-failure fix, found while
auditing further: amount > max_single_tx (both deposit and withdrawal)
warned and Telegram-alerted but never called db.add_deposit/add_withdrawal
- "not auto-recorded" was literally in the log line. Now always recorded
(pending_multisig_approval_amount_exceeds_cap), same as every other
manual-review path.
Backfill throttle: catching up many blocks after real downtime fires a
tight burst of RPC calls that can trip a metered/shared endpoint's rate
limit hard enough to poison the whole connection - observed live. A 150ms
pause between backfilled blocks avoids it.
Telegram notification threshold: at real user volume, a message for every
small successful auto-pay would bury the ones that need a human (failures,
over-cap, reserve problems, anything falling to manual 3-of-5) under
noise. Added notify_threshold (default 500 USDT) gating ONLY the routine
"auto-paid successfully" message on both legs - everything else keeps
notifying unconditionally regardless of amount. Also found and fixed a
real asymmetry: the withdrawal leg's "awaiting multisig approval" case
never notified Telegram at all (the deposit leg always did) - a
withdrawal needing manual review must always page someone.
process_withdrawal_block's reserve/circuit-breaker check used to `continue`
past a Polkadot connect failure without ever calling db.add_withdrawal() -
a transient RPC error (confirmed live: a public-endpoint rate limit) meant
an already-finalized Pezkuwi withdrawal was silently untracked, with no
pending_multisig_approval entry for the signatories to ever see. It now
always records the withdrawal; an unreachable reserve check is treated as
"unverified" (never auto-paid, flagged distinctly from a confirmed
shortfall) rather than as a reason to drop the record.
Also add bounded exponential backoff (2s..32s, 6 attempts) to
connect_to_chain instead of failing on the first error - every caller
either bubbles the failure through a listener's outer reconnect loop or
out of main() to a systemd restart, so a single blip was tearing down and
fully re-initializing both listeners instead of just waiting it out.
Finally, support POLKADOT_RPC_URL/PEZKUWI_RPC_URL env var overrides for
the configured RPC endpoints, so a dedicated/API-keyed provider URL (e.g.
Dwellir, adopted after the public Polkadot Asset Hub endpoint started
rate-limiting us) can live in a tightly-permissioned EnvironmentFile
instead of the git-tracked bridge_config.json - same pattern already used
for PEZBRIDGE_TELEGRAM_TOKEN and AUTOMATION_KEY_MNEMONIC.
The automation key's signing clients (pezkuwi_signing_client/
polkadot_signing_client) are created once at startup and reused for every
auto-pay call. Same failure class as the listener's live subscription
(silent WS death, no error until the next real use, see
LIVE_SUBSCRIPTION_STALL_TIMEOUT's comment): a real withdrawal auto-pay hit
"Connection reset by peer... restart required" twice in a row today,
sending both to manual 3-of-5 review even though the automation key's
Polkadot approval had just been granted and should have covered them.
Both execute_wusdt_auto_payout/execute_usdt_auto_payout call sites now
retry once against a genuinely fresh client on failure before giving up -
cheap for an occasional per-event call (unlike the listener's persistent
subscription, no reason to avoid reconnecting every time). Falls back to
manual review exactly as before if the retry also fails - never a new
failure mode, just a narrower one.
A real 1 USDT deposit landed on-chain at block #18250967 and was never
detected: subscribe_finalized()'s stream silently stopped yielding new
blocks after startup - no error, no closed stream, the process stayed up
and "Listening for deposits..." was the last line logged for 3+ hours while
the deposit sat undetected the whole time. Checkpoint + backfill (added
earlier) only covers a gap across a process restart; it does nothing for a
stall with no restart at all, which is exactly what happened here.
Both listen_deposits and listen_withdrawals now wrap their subscribe loop in
an outer reconnect loop: each blocks.next() call is bounded by a 120s
timeout (Asset Hub blocks land every ~6-12s, so this is a wide margin), and
a timeout, a closed stream, or a stream-yielded error all trigger a full
reconnect (fresh client + fresh legacy RPC) rather than silently hanging or
crashing the whole process. The existing checkpoint-vs-head backfill then
catches up whatever was missed during the stall, same as it already does
for an ordinary restart.
listen_deposits/listen_withdrawals previously used ONLY a live finalized-
block subscription with no persisted cursor - the last_polkadot_block/
last_pezkuwi_block fields existed in BridgeStats but were never read or
written anywhere. A transient subscription gap (no logging, no crash, just
a silently skipped block) could make a real deposit vanish from detection
entirely. Confirmed live: a real user's 1 USDT deposit landed correctly at
the multisig custody address (verified via direct chain balance query) but
was never once logged as detected across 7+ hours of continuous uptime with
zero errors - see res/validators-tiki.md 2026-07-15 for the full incident.
Both listeners now:
1. On startup, compare the persisted checkpoint against current chain head
and explicitly backfill (fetch block-by-hash via the legacy RPC's
chain_get_block_hash, then process identically to the live path) any gap
before starting the live subscription.
2. During live operation, detect if the subscription itself ever jumps ahead
unexpectedly and backfill that gap too, paging Telegram when it happens.
3. Persist the checkpoint after every block processed, live or backfilled.
process_deposit_block/process_withdrawal_block are the single shared
per-block handlers - backfilled and live blocks run through identical logic,
so there's no way for the two paths to silently diverge in behavior.
wallet-android's Bridge screen has always advertised a 1 USDT minimum
(MIN_USDT constant), but usdt-bridge's actual min_deposit/min_withdraw
defaulted to 10 USDT since the tool's original scaffold commit - nobody had
ever reconciled the two. Confirmed live: a real user swap of ~1 USDT landed
correctly at the multisig custody address but was silently skipped by
listen_deposits (amount < min_deposit), so the user never received wUSDT
despite the wallet telling them 1 USDT was a valid amount.
Backend now matches the value already promised to users, not the other way
around - changing the wallet's displayed minimum after users have already
relied on it would be the wrong direction to reconcile this in.
Small/mid-size swaps no longer have to wait on 3-of-5 for every single
transaction. usdt-bridge can now execute Assets.transfer_approved directly via
the automation key's existing delegated allowance when a deposit/withdrawal
passes all three independent guards:
- max_single_tx (50,000 USDT): any single transaction above this always queues
for manual multisig review, no exceptions.
- auto_pay_daily_cap (200,000 USDT): a rolling 24h budget tracked separately
per leg (wUSDT payouts vs USDT payouts draw on separate on-chain allowances),
not a per-tx ceiling - lets many legitimate sub-cap swaps clear same-day.
- circuit breaker: if >=50% of the daily cap is consumed within 30 minutes,
auto-pay halts entirely until a human runs reset-circuit-breaker - a burst
that fast reads as a compromised key or a bug, not organic demand.
The automation key can only ever move funds via its pre-approved allowance
(never mint/burn/set_team/transfer_ownership - those stay multisig-only), so
its worst case is bounded by whatever allowance + daily cap remain, not
unbounded custody. Withdrawal auto-pay releases real USDT immediately but
defers the corresponding wUSDT burn (Owner/Admin-only, no delegation exists
for it) to a periodic manual multisig batch - tracked via a distinct
auto_paid_burn_pending status so it can't be silently forgotten.
Auto-pay is opt-in at the infra level: AUTOMATION_KEY_MNEMONIC unset means
100% manual behavior, unchanged from before. Bumped pezbridge-bot's
renewal_threshold/topup_amount so the next 3-of-5-approved allowance renewal
scales to the new daily cap.
- show_status/show_balances/show_reserves checked the wrong account:
load_wallet_addresses(&config.seed_path), the old, explicitly-retired
single-operator key, never the multisig custody addresses. These
commands were actively misleading, not just unfinished.
- listen_deposits/listen_withdrawals ran as concurrent tasks sharing one
BridgeDatabase JSON file with no locking and a non-atomic write - two
events landing close together could produce a lost update, and a
mid-write crash left a truncated file that hard-crashed the next
start. Added a process-wide async mutex around every load-mutate-save
critical section, and made save() write-temp-then-rename so a crash
mid-write can never corrupt the file in place. load() now refuses to
silently treat a corrupt file as empty (would erase replay-protection
history) - only a genuinely missing file gets a fresh database.
- The reserve-shortfall circuit breaker - the single most safety-critical
signal this tool can produce - only called a local error!() log macro.
Nobody was notified. Added real Telegram alerting (reusing
PezbridgeBot's exact chats/send pattern rather than a second channel)
for reserve shortfalls, max-single-tx-cap deposits/withdrawals needing
manual review, and every new pending_multisig_approval row.
Also removed ProcessDeposit/MintWusdt/TransferUsdt - dead-but-dangerous
CLI subcommands that still loaded the retired operator key and attempted
direct mint/transfer/burn calls that only happened to fail today because
that key lost asset authority. A latent trap, not a safe no-op by
design; production flow is listen-all -> pending_multisig_approval ->
pwap-web signing, never a single-key path.
cargo check: 0 errors, 0 warnings (both binaries).
Renewing the automation key's spending allowance always needs 3-of-5
multisig approval regardless, so having this bot hold one signer's
(Noter's) private key on a VPS to auto-submit one of those three
signatures was never actually saving a real step - the other two
signers still had to sign manually every time. Once pwap-web shipped
a real multisig operations UI (and now wallet-android's Bridge screen
too), the bot's only remaining job is to detect a low allowance and
notify all 5 signers via Telegram - they each sign with their own
wallet through one of pwap-web, pezbridge-sign.pex.mom, or the wallet
app directly. Noter's mnemonic was removed from the VPS entirely
(shred -u) after this rewrite was deployed and verified.
Also adds gen_automation_key.rs (one-off key generation helper) and
the updated systemd unit with LoadCredential removed.
listen_deposits/listen_withdrawals matched the bridge address by
checking whether a Debug-formatted string of the decoded dynamic Value
contained a 10-char slice of the address's SS58 text - flagged earlier
this session as unverified and provably broken (that same Debug string
was also fed into convert_ss58_prefix, which only parses real SS58
text and could never have succeeded on it).
Added account_id_from_dynamic(), which decodes an AccountId32's actual
32 bytes out of the event field (peeling the single-item composite
wrapper subxt's dynamic API adds, same nesting seen in Tiki storage
this session) and account_bytes_to_ss58() to re-encode them properly.
Both listeners now compare raw bytes against the target address
instead of matching strings, and derive the sender's real SS58 address
for logging and convert_ss58_prefix() instead of a Debug string.
Verified against a live event, not just read: sent a real 1 wUSDT
transfer from Treasury_1 to the multisig and confirmed the decoder
correctly extracted and matched the multisig's AccountId32 bytes from
the resulting Assets.Transferred event.
The single-key custodial model (see prior commit's own doc comment:
"Custodial: A single keypair controls both sides") was replaced with
a 3-of-5 multisig spanning the Serok/SerokiMeclise/Xezinedar/Berdevk/
Noter tiki role-holders (full record in res/validators-tiki.md,
outside this repo). Discovered along the way: wUSDT's ~100M supply
had zero real USDT backing on Polkadot Asset Hub - Treasury_1 (the
actual asset owner, not the seed_path wallet this tool assumed) held
0 USDT/DOT there, with ~99M of the 100M supply sitting undistributed
in Treasury_1's own account. Migrated Pezkuwi Asset Hub custody in one
atomic batch (transfer 1M wUSDT to the multisig, set_team, then
transfer_ownership last) signed by Treasury_1 - tx
0xd5dc550c5cf04f323e5c1d9c13f2056acafc9f56404c657b9743c15ff3a3aacb,
verified on-chain.
listen_deposits/listen_withdrawals no longer sign and submit
mint/burn/transfer - no key this process holds has authority over the
multisig account. They now only detect on-chain events and record
status=pending_multisig_approval with the exact call parameters an
operator needs; actual approval happens through pwap-web's existing
multisig UI (shared/lib/multisig.ts, shared/lib/usdt.ts), not this
relayer. BridgeConfig gained custody_multisig_polkadot/_pezkuwi
fields.
Added pezkuwi-subxt/pezkuwi-subxt-signer alongside the existing
vanilla subxt dependency: vanilla subxt's codegen hardcodes the
`sp_runtime` module path and its default signed-extension handling
produced "bad signature" on submission against this chain's actual
metadata - pezkuwi-subxt (following vendor/pezkuwi-subxt's own
grant_noter_tiki.rs example: PezkuwiConfig, XCM v3, sudo_unchecked_weight)
is what actually signs and submits successfully. Also used to grant
the Xezinedar and Berdevk tiki roles (previously missing signatories
for the multisig) to two validators via a relay-chain sudo XCM Transact,
since the People chain has no local Sudo pallet.
The withdrawal direction (burn wUSDT -> release real USDT) had no
listener at all - nothing watched Pezkuwi for redemption deposits, and
the manual ProcessWithdrawals command was an empty stub. The deposit
listener also had two real bugs: it minted to the bridge's own address
instead of the sender's (a leftover "for demo" placeholder), and it
never checked whether a deposit had already been processed before
minting again.
- Add is_deposit_processed/is_withdrawal_processed idempotency checks,
enforced before every mint/burn/release, not just recorded after.
- Fix listen_deposits() to mint to the sender's actual Pezkuwi address
(same AccountId32, re-encoded under Pezkuwi's SS58 prefix - both
chains share one derivation, so no memo/registration is needed) and
to persist processed deposits to the database, which it never did.
- Add listen_withdrawals(), mirroring the deposit listener: detects
wUSDT sent to bridge custody, burns it, verifies the Polkadot
custody wallet actually holds enough real USDT before releasing
(circuit breaker - an under-collateralized peg must halt loudly,
not silently short-pay), then releases to the sender's Polkadot
address.
- Add max_single_tx cap so one bad/anomalous event can't move an
unbounded amount automatically.
- Add a Reserves command reporting real custody balance vs circulating
wUSDT supply - the exact invariant that, when broken, is what the
wallet's "waiting for liquidity" banner was masking.
- load_keypair() now prefers BRIDGE_SEED_MNEMONIC (meant to be
Vault-injected, matching how the exchange's hot wallets are already
provisioned) over the plaintext seed_path file, which remains only
as a local/dev fallback with a loud warning.
Flagged, not fixed here: the event-matching in both listeners
(Debug-formatted Value string containing a slice of the bridge's SS58
text) is unverified against a live node in this environment and should
be replaced with subxt's typed/codegen API before this handles real
value. Custody is still single-keypair (no multisig/MPC threshold
signing) - that is an infrastructure/key-ceremony decision, not a code
change, and is the highest-priority follow-up.
After rebrand from SubstrateTest → BizinikiwiTest, the pallet prefix
twox_128 hash changed from 00771836bebdd29870ff246d305c578c to
d98085a84eac4903081fb752c3d8ecde.
generate_expected_storage_hashed_keys was already updated to use
b"BizinikiwiTest" but get_expected_storage_hashed_keys and
build_minimal_genesis_config_works tests still had the old hardcoded
SubstrateTest hashes. This caused expected_keys_vec_are_matching to
fail in CI.
1. bip39: revert test password Bizinikiwi to Substrate — VECTORS were
generated with Substrate; only the test code was renamed during
rebrand, not the precomputed PBKDF2 reference values.
2. xcm: revert DescribePalletTerminal byte tag Pezpallet to Pallet —
XCM location-to-account hashing uses protocol-level byte strings
that must not be rebranded; the change silently broke account
derivation for pallet-instance XCM locations in all zagros runtimes.
3. CI: exclude pez-chain-spec-guide-runtime from all 5 test-partition
and test-no-try-runtime jobs — its tests require WASM_BINARY_PATH
which is None under SKIP_WASM_BUILD=1 (same pattern as the 10
emulated integration test exclusions already in place).
4. polkavm: downgrade fixtures build-dep polkavm-linker 0.30.0 to
0.29.0 to match pallet polkavm 0.29.1 (polkavm-common 0.29.0)
validator; the format mismatch caused CodeRejected on all PVM blob
uploads in tests. Updated build.rs: target_json_path(args) becomes
target_json_64_path(), program_from_elf 3-arg becomes 2-arg.
Emulated XCM integration tests call WASM_BINARY.expect() in their genesis
functions (e.g. asset-hub-zagros/genesis.rs:168). With SKIP_WASM_BUILD=1
(set in .test-base) these all panic immediately with "WASM binary was not
built, please build it!" — causing every test-partition and
test-no-try-runtime job to fail.
Fix: exclude all 10 emulated integration test packages from the 5 partition
jobs. Add a dedicated test-emulated job that runs those 10 packages with
SKIP_WASM_BUILD=0, so WASM blobs are compiled and the genesis functions
succeed. test-emulated shares the same CARGO_TARGET_DIR as the partition
jobs so jemalloc, rocksdb, and Rust deps are warm; WASM blobs land in a
separate debug/build/<hash>/out/ subtree.
Packages excluded from partitions / run in test-emulated:
asset-hub-pezkuwichain-integration-tests
asset-hub-zagros-integration-tests
collectives-zagros-integration-tests
coretime-pezkuwichain-integration-tests

Job was timing out at 120m because it had no CARGO_HOME or shared
CARGO_TARGET_DIR — every run was a cold registry download + full
cold compile even when test-base jobs had already built the same
crates. Add /root/.cargo pre-baked image registry and share the
same /cache/cargo-target/${CACHE_KEY}/test-release directory used
by .test-base. With warm cache this completes in under 30m.
Increase timeout 120m → 180m as belt-and-suspenders for the case
where this job runs before any .test-base job has warmed the cache.

Cold debug build + 1/3 partition test execution observed at 300m+ on VPS2
(14 CPU, 28GB RAM). First pipeline after a Cargo.lock change triggers a cold
CACHE_KEY rebuild (~180-190m), leaving insufficient time for test execution.
420m provides headroom for cold-cache pipelines; warm cache runs complete in
45-90m well within the limit.

1. Add -Clink-arg=-fuse-ld=lld to .test-base RUSTFLAGS.
LLD uses significantly less RAM than ld when linking large debug binaries
(pezkuwi-availability-distribution, pezsc-service). On kurditv with 8G
container memory limit, ld Bus-errors during the link step. LLD resolves
this without raising the memory cap.
2. Apply the same fmt resilience pattern to check-core-crypto-features:
CARGO_HOME=/root/.cargo, before_script:[], retry: when:always max:2.
The job hits server_timeout_running on vps3 (same root cause as fmt —
GitLab CI cache download hangs before the script produces any output).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Two changes:
1. Use CARGO_HOME=/root/.cargo + before_script:[] + cache:[] for fmt.
cargo fmt --check does not compile and needs no registry download.
GitLab CI cache downloads happen before any log output — if the download
hangs on a flaky runner, the job silently times out with server_timeout_running
and an empty trace, blocking all downstream jobs.
2. Switch retry when: to `always`. GitLab has no retry keyword for
server_timeout_running (internal code). `always` ensures infrastructure
failures (container-start, cache-download, runner crash) are retried on
a different runner. Real format violations fail deterministically on all
retries and still produce a correct FAIL outcome; max: 2 caps wasted runs.

The arrayvec fork's io::Write impl used `use std::io` which in no_std mode
(wasm32v1-none with std feature unified by workspace) expands to `use core::io`.
`core::io` is gated behind the unstable `core_io_borrowed_buf` feature in
Rust 1.88 — causing wasm-check (cargo check --target wasm32v1-none) to fail.
Upstream fix: gate io import and io::Write impl behind
not(all(target_arch = "wasm32", target_os = "none")).

Two root-cause fixes for repeated disk-full (ENOSPC) failures on VPS runners:
1. Add -Cdebuginfo=1 to RUSTFLAGS in .test-base.
Line-tables-only strips variable/type debug info while keeping file:line
in panic stack traces. On a full Substrate workspace this cuts the debug/
artifacts from ~52 G to ~20 G (~60% reduction).
2. Change wasm-check CARGO_TARGET_DIR from its own per-job dir to the shared
test-release dir. The wasm32v1-none artifacts land in test-release/wasm32v1-none/
which is orthogonal to test-release/debug/ used by test-partition jobs.
Removing the intra-key find…rm prevents wasm-check from wiping the 52 G
test-release dir mid-pipeline when test-no-try-runtime jobs are still queued.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
test-doc has SKIP_WASM_BUILD=0 which compiles WASM runtimes and doc tests,
producing 27G+ of artifacts. It was persisting those to /cache/cargo-target/
alongside the test-release dir, filling the 96G kurditv volume to 100%.
Since test-doc is allow_failure and the warm-cache benefit doesn't justify
the disk cost, switch it to the ephemeral container filesystem (same approach
as clippy). The before_script no longer sets CARGO_TARGET_DIR.

Root cause: server_timeout_running (kurditv disk-full Docker failures) hits
GitLab's 60m default timeout and is not caught by stuck_or_timeout_failure,
runner_system_failure, or unknown_failure — meaning no retry triggers, and fmt
(a pipeline blocker) fails permanently, skipping ALL downstream jobs.
Fix: give every quick-check and security job an explicit tight timeout. A stuck
runner now hits job_execution_timeout (a matchable retry condition) in seconds
or minutes, not 60m. The retry then lands on one of the two healthy runners.
Timeouts added (worst-case real duration shown):
fmt: 10m (normally ~90s) retry: max 2
check-toml-format: 5m
check-dependency-rules: 5m
check-fail-ci: 5m
check-workspace-integrity: 15m
check-zepter: 20m
test-rust-features: 10m
check-umbrella: 30m
check-licenses-headers: 10m
check-core-crypto-features: 15m
cargo-deny-licenses: 20m
cargo-deny-sources: 20m
cargo-audit: 20m retry: max 2

Two root causes from pipeline 2480888929:
1. /cache volume bloat — kurditv hit 93G/96G (97% full). The before_script
pruned old cache KEYS but never cleaned other job dirs within the SAME key.
Old test-partition-1/, test-partition-2/, wasm-check/, … accumulated across
pipelines alongside the new test-release/ dir, filling the volume.
Fix: add a second find that removes every sibling dir in CACHE_KEY/ except
the current job's dir. .test-base keeps only test-release/; wasm-check keeps
only wasm-check/. Each pipeline run starts with a clean slate per job type.
2. Release builds exceeded 300m — vps3 was still compiling
pezbridge-hub-zagros-runtime at minute 300 in --release mode.
Clippy (debug) took 162m cold; release mode is 2-3x slower.
Fix: remove --release from all cargo nextest run commands. RUSTFLAGS already
includes -Cdebug-assertions=y so assertion coverage is identical. Debug
artifacts are smaller (less disk pressure) and compile faster.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Three root causes from pipeline 2480399247 (b756499b):
1. kurditv runner failures: `server_timeout_running` and `no_updates_running`
are internal GitLab failure codes NOT caught by stuck_or_timeout_failure or
runner_system_failure. Added unknown_failure to all retry conditions so
retries trigger and land on a healthy runner.
2. Test partition job_execution_timeout (150m): tests run with --release so
C deps (jemalloc/rocksdb) take hours to compile on cold VPS cache. CARGO_TARGET_DIR
was per-CI_JOB_NAME so each partition compiled independently. Changed to shared
test-release dir — C deps compiled once per runner per cache key, all partitions
reuse. Timeout bumped from 150m to 300m to survive a full cold build.
3. wasm-check: no explicit timeout → hit 60m GitLab default. Added timeout: 2h
and retry conditions.
Also: test-doc/build-rustdoc/build-implementers-guide got retry conditions;
build-implementers-guide got explicit 15m timeout (mdbook is fast).

Unstable runners occasionally get stuck in the prepare phase with no
log output. Any job can be affected. Adding retry: max: 1, when:
stuck_or_timeout_failure to all remaining jobs that lacked it:
quick-checks: check-dependency-rules, check-fail-ci,
check-workspace-integrity, check-zepter, test-rust-features,
check-umbrella, check-licenses-headers
security: cargo-deny-sources, cargo-audit
checks: check-core-crypto-features
Clippy and check-try-runtime excluded — retrying 36m/81m jobs on
actual timeout would be too expensive; those get runner_system_failure
coverage for runner crashes instead.

fmt occasionally gets stuck on unstable runners (empty log, 17+ min
with no output). Since clippy depends on fmt, a stuck fmt blocks the
entire critical path: clippy → check-try-runtime → all tests.
retry: max: 1, when: stuck_or_timeout_failure covers runner freeze
without masking actual cargo fmt formatting failures.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Both jobs occasionally get stuck on unstable runners with no output
for 40-50+ minutes (empty log, runner preparing phase freeze). Without
explicit retry, they fail the pipeline with stuck_or_timeout_failure.
retry: max: 1, when: stuck_or_timeout_failure retries only on genuine
runner freezes, not on taplo format errors or license violations.

librocksdb-sys debug build writes a multi-GB librocksdb.a static archive
to /cache/cargo-target, filling the volume and causing build failure.
Persistent cache is not safe for C++ heavy dependencies.
Keep CARGO_HOME=/root/.cargo (avoids re-downloading the Rust crate
registry on every run). CARGO_TARGET_DIR stays ephemeral (Docker
container fs has ample space).
Timeout stays at 3h to cover cold builds on slower runners.

Two root causes for clippy taking 100+ minutes on cold runners:
1. CARGO_HOME=$CI_PROJECT_DIR/.cargo (global default) is wiped each job,
forcing re-download of the entire crate registry on every run.
Fix: override CARGO_HOME=/root/.cargo (pre-baked in the CI image).
2. CARGO_TARGET_DIR not persisted — compiled artifacts discarded after
each run, forcing full recompile on the same runner.
Fix: same /cache/cargo-target/$CACHE_KEY/clippy setup as test jobs.
First run on a fresh runner: still slow (~100m, cold compile).
Subsequent runs on same runner: ~10-15m (warm cache reuse).
Timeout bumped to 3h to safely cover the cold-build case.

VPS2 Docker daemon crashed mid-run, killing test-partition-1/2 and
leaving wasm-check/test-no-try-runtime-2 with 404 exec errors. None
of these were test failures — all were runner infrastructure failures.
retry: max: 1, when: runner_system_failure retries only on runner
crashes, never on actual test failures. Correct safeguard for
multi-runner setups where any VPS can restart unexpectedly.

advisory-db is cloned from GitHub (rustsec/advisory-db). The runner
(merkez-server) occasionally fails to reach GitHub — the clone fails
silently, the advisory-dbs/ directory is not created, and cargo-deny
then tries to run git-log on a non-existent path, producing:
'fatal: cannot change to ...' parsed as an ISO-8601 date → crash
Real fix: GitLab native retry (max: 2, when: script_failure).
This retries the full job on infrastructure failures without bypassing
the security check — if all 3 attempts fail, the job still fails.

Two root causes fixed:
1. test-partition-* timeout (90m):
- WASM runtime sub-builds were running during test compilation.
SKIP_WASM_BUILD=1 skips them — unit/integration tests use mock
environments and don't need actual WASM blobs.
- WASM_BUILD_WORKSPACE_HINT=$CI_PROJECT_DIR: when CARGO_TARGET_DIR is
outside the project directory, wasm-builder's build script searches
upward for Cargo.lock and fails to find it. Without Cargo.lock it
resolves deps fresh (no --locked), selecting alloy-eips@1.8.3 and
ruint@1.18.0 which require Rust 1.91/1.90 (toolchain is 1.88).
- Timeout increased 90m → 150m for cold-cache headroom.
2. wasm-check arrayvec compile failure (197 errors):
cargo check --target wasm32v1-none uses whole-workspace feature
unification, which enables arrayvec's std feature. wasm32v1-none is
a bare-metal target with no libstd, so arrayvec must be no_std there.
Fixed in arrayvec fork: force no_std when
target_arch=wasm32 && target_os=none, regardless of feature flags.
Cargo.lock updated to new arrayvec commit (0c417574).

Three sequential cargo check commands were causing a 90m timeout on GitLab
shared runners (no persistent target/ cache). Command 3 (try-runtime,experimental)
is a strict superset of commands 1 and 2:
- cmd 1: --all --features try-runtime → redundant, cmd 3 covers it
- cmd 2: -p teyrchain-template-node --features try-runtime → redundant,
teyrchain-template-node is in the workspace (templates/teyrchain/node)
so --all already includes it
Keep only the most comprehensive check. Increase timeout to 120m to give the
single compile sufficient headroom on shared runners (~60-70m observed).

core2 0.4.0 was yanked from crates.io. Wasm runtime builds invoke cargo
as a subprocess without --locked, causing fresh dependency resolution to
fail when selecting core2 ^0.4 (no non-yanked version available).
The dependency path: pezsc-network -> cid v0.9.0 -> core2 ^0.4
Adding a git mirror at git.pezkuwichain.io/pezkuwichain/core2 as a
workspace [patch.crates-io] entry. The wasm-builder propagates workspace
patches to the generated wbuild Cargo.toml, so the sub-build resolves
core2 from the git source instead of the yanked crates.io version.
Critical issues fixed:
1. Workspace Cargo.toml license: GPL-3.0-only → GPL-3.0-or-later WITH
Classpath-exception-2.0 to match the SPDX-License-Identifier headers
in 648 source files. These are legally distinct licenses — GPL-3.0-only
prohibits use of future GPL versions; GPL-3.0-or-later WITH
Classpath-exception-2.0 permits linking without contaminating linked
code (critical for WASM runtime use case).
2. Add LICENSE-MIT0: 32 source files declare MIT-0 (pezframe examples)
but no license text existed in the repository.
3. Add LICENSE-UNLICENSE: 9 source files declare Unlicense (penpal test
runtime) but no license text existed.
4. Add SPDX-License-Identifier headers to 150 crate_placeholder source
files. These crates explicitly declare Apache-2.0 in Cargo.toml but
had no license headers in their .rs files.
5. Fix repository URL: GitHub URL was DMCA-taken-down; updated to
git.pezkuwichain.io canonical URL.
Root cause of GitHub DMCA: inconsistent license declarations make it
ambiguous whether Apache-2.0 upstream code was properly attributed.
All four license texts (Apache-2.0, GPL-3, MIT-0, Unlicense) are now
present and every source file has a corresponding SPDX header.
Primary license is GPL-3.0-only per Cargo.toml workspace config.
LICENSE-GPL3 already existed; this adds the standard LICENSE filename
that repository hosting platforms use for automatic detection.
'propagate-features' is not a valid zepter workflow. The correct workflow
is 'default' which runs propagate-feature --fix for workspace + umbrella.
Since check-zepter validates workspace cleanliness first, the workspace
step is a no-op — only umbrella feature lists get populated by Zepter.
Generator intentionally emits empty feature lists (filled by Zepter).
Without running propagate-features after generate, diff always exists.
Add zepter run propagate-features step so check reflects actual state.
