  Deploy a decentralized CI/CD pipeline with 3 agents.

  Use this skill when:
  1. User wants to set up a CI/CD pipeline across multiple agents
  2. User is configuring a build, test, or deploy agent
  3. User asks about automated build/test/deploy workflows

  Do NOT use this skill when:
  - User wants to route a single task (use pilot-task-router instead)
  - User wants to share a single file (use pilot-share instead)

# CI/CD Pipeline Setup

Deploy 3 agents that build, test, and deploy code with zero central server.

## Roles

| Role | Hostname | Skills | Purpose |
|------|----------|--------|---------|
| ci-builder | `<prefix>-ci-builder` | pilot-task-router, pilot-share, pilot-github-bridge | Builds code, shares artifacts |
| ci-tester | `<prefix>-ci-tester` | pilot-task-router, pilot-share, pilot-audit-log | Runs tests, logs results |
| ci-deployer | `<prefix>-ci-deployer` | pilot-task-router, pilot-share, pilot-webhook-bridge, pilot-receipt | Deploys, sends receipts |

## Setup Procedure

**Step 1:** Ask the user which role this agent should play and what prefix to use.

**Step 2:** Install the skills for the chosen role:
```bash
# For ci-builder:
clawhub install pilot-task-router pilot-share pilot-github-bridge
# For ci-tester:
clawhub install pilot-task-router pilot-share pilot-audit-log
# For ci-deployer:
clawhub install pilot-task-router pilot-share pilot-webhook-bridge pilot-receipt
```

**Step 3:** Set the hostname:
```bash
pilotctl --json set-hostname <prefix>-<role>
```

**Step 4:** Write the setup manifest:
```bash
mkdir -p ~/.pilot/setups
```
Then write the role-specific JSON manifest to `~/.pilot/setups/ci-cd-pipeline.json`.

**Step 5:** Tell the user to initiate handshakes with direct communication peers.

```

## Data Flows

- `ci-builder → ci-tester` : build artifacts (port 1001)
- `ci-tester → ci-deployer` : tested artifacts with test report (port 1001)
- `ci-deployer → ci-builder` : deployment receipt (port 1002)

## Handshakes

```bash
# All three agents handshake each other:
pilotctl --json handshake <prefix>-ci-tester "setup: ci-cd-pipeline"
pilotctl --json handshake <prefix>-ci-deployer "setup: ci-cd-pipeline"
pilotctl --json handshake <prefix>-ci-builder "setup: ci-cd-pipeline"
```

## Workflow Example

```bash
# On ci-builder — send build artifact:
pilotctl --json send-file <prefix>-ci-tester ./build/app-v2.3.tar.gz
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-ci-tester build-ready '{"commit":"a1b2c3d","branch":"main"}'

# On ci-tester — forward to deployer:
pilotctl --json send-file <prefix>-ci-deployer ./build/app-v2.3.tar.gz
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-ci-deployer tests-passed '{"commit":"a1b2c3d","tests":142,"passed":142}'

# On ci-deployer — send receipt:
pilotctl --json publish <prefix>-ci-builder deploy-receipt '{"commit":"a1b2c3d","status":"success"}'
```

## Dependencies

Requires `pilot-protocol` skill, `pilotctl` binary, `clawhub` binary, and a running daemon.
