## Summary
Silences the recurring `OpenTelemetry error: there is no package called 'otelsdk'` warnings during builds.
## Root cause
The `build-env-*` images configure an OTel exporter (traces/logs/metrics), but `otelsdk` (the R OTel SDK backend) isn't installed. pak's `otel` instrumentation therefore tries to load `otelsdk` on every run and logs the error, falling back to a no-op.
`OTEL_SDK_DISABLED=true` (already set in `build-one.Dockerfile`) does **not** help — the R `otel` package ignores it and gates purely on `OTEL_R_<SIGNAL>_EXPORTER` (then the standard `OTEL_<SIGNAL>_EXPORTER`). When that resolves to a real exporter (`otlp`/`http`/…) with no SDK present, you get the error.
## Fix
Set `OTEL_R_TRACES_EXPORTER`, `OTEL_R_LOGS_EXPORTER`, and `OTEL_R_METRICS_EXPORTER` to `none` so the R otel providers are clean no-ops:
- `docker/build-one.Dockerfile` — exported alongside the existing OTel var.
- `.crow/process-updates.yaml`, `weekly-rebuild-missing.yaml`, `build-all-versions.yaml`, `build-all-versions-install-deps.yaml` — added to each step's `environment` block.
Using the R-specific variables (not the standard `OTEL_*_EXPORTER`) keeps OTel intact for any non-R tooling in the images.

## Summary
Adds the curated **patch registry** and wiring that drives bincraft's new package-patching mechanism (see bincraft PR `feat/package-patching`).
Lets specific packages be patched (env/configure/Makevars overrides or source diffs) before pak installs them — including as transitive dependencies — so compiler-/OS-specific failures like RcppParallel's bundled TBB stop cascading.
## What's included
- `local/patches/registry.json` — initial entry: RcppParallel with `RCPP_PARALLEL_USE_TBB=0` for alpine / ubuntu-2604, plus `local/patches/README.md` schema docs.
- `local/validate-patches.R` — validates schema, referenced patch files, and ambiguous overlaps; clean failure + exit 1 (no stacktrace).
- `.pre-commit-config.yaml` — a `validate-patches` hook (re-runs when the registry or the validator changes).
- `local/build-one.R` / `local/build-all.R` — pass `patches = "local/patches"` to `bincraft::build_binary_package()`.
- `specs/2026-06-30-package-patching-design.md` and `plans/2026-06-30-package-patching-implementation.md`.
## ⚠️ Merge ordering (blocker)
This PR adds a `patches = ...` argument to `build_binary_package()` calls.
The `.crow/*.yaml` workflows currently pin bincraft **v4.2.3**, which does not accept that argument — CI will error with `unused argument (patches=...)` until:
1. bincraft **v4.3.0** is released (PR `feat/package-patching`), and
2. the pin is bumped in `.crow/build-all-versions-install-deps.yaml`, `.crow/build-all-versions.yaml`, and `.crow/process-updates.yaml`.
The `.crow` pin bump will be added to this PR once bincraft v4.3.0 is tagged. Do not merge before then.

The function defaults to Hetzner S3 with HETZNER_S3_*_K3S env vars that
are not set in these workflows, so paws failed with "No compatible
credentials provided". Pass the B2 endpoint/region/bucket and
B2_S3_* secrets explicitly, matching the other S3 calls. Also use
set_codename(NULL) for the build-all-versions codename so it matches
the S3 repo path.
## Summary
Two changes:
1. **`OS`/`OS_VERSION` manual-run dropdowns** — give these form variables explicit `options:` lists (like `target_arch` and `R_VERSION`), so the manual-run form shows dropdowns instead of free-text, in both `build-all-versions.yaml` and `build-all-versions-install-deps.yaml`. Crow form variables are independent (no cascading), so the operator still has to pick a coherent `OS` + `OS_VERSION` combination (e.g. `redhat` + `9`, not `alpine` + `jammy`).
2. **Repairs `main`** — the crow fix from PR #96 (`bc2f6f1`) was lost when that PR was squashed (only the first commit was captured). As a result `main` currently carries the `OS: ${OS}` env vars that break Crow parsing (`unable to parse variable name`) and the unfixed `build-all.R`. This PR re-applies that fix: drop the env additions and derive `platform`/`arch` inside `build-all.R` from the container (bincraft codename → platform mapping + `Sys.info()` arch).
## Notes
- `OS_VERSION` options are quoted strings so tags like `8`/`9`/`10` aren't parsed as integers.
- Validated: both YAMLs parse, `build-all.R` parses.

## Summary
Fixes the recurring `build-all-*` failure on agents where `build-all-versions-install-deps` did **not** run.
Both symptoms in the logs — `Parameter 3 does not have length 1` (repeated, in the metadata DB queries) and `argument is of length zero` (system-dependency install) — were the same bug: inside bincraft, `platform` was zero-length. `local/build-all.R` calls `build_binary_package()` without passing `platform`, so bincraft resolves it from the container codename. The primary build step never (re)installed/pinned bincraft and relied on whatever sat in the **per-agent** cache volume; `depends_on` only orders steps, it does not co-locate them on the same agent, so a job landing where install-deps never ran got a stale bincraft that left `platform` empty.
## Changes
- **`build-all-versions.yaml`**: pin bincraft `@v4.2.3` in the primary build step (mirroring the R-minor pass and `process-updates.yaml`), so every agent uses a known-good bincraft regardless of where install-deps ran.
- Align the R-minor pass `v4.2.2 → v4.2.3`.
- Export `OS`/`OS_VERSION`/`ARCH` as runtime env vars — previously only available for `${...}` interpolation, so `build-all.R`'s already-built dedup query matched platform `"-"` and skipped nothing.
- Fix the unarchive call: pass the codename via `bincraft::set_codename(NULL)` instead of the malformed `paste(OS, OS_VERSION)` (`"alpine 3.24"`), matching `archive-missed-packages.yaml`.
- **`build-all-versions-install-deps.yaml`**: pin install-deps to `@v4.2.3` (was installing HEAD), so the precomputed snapshot and per-agent library stay consistent pipeline-wide.

## Summary
- Switch crow workflow placement from a per-agent label (`agent: ${AGENT}`) to a group label (`group: rpkgs-${ARCH}`), so jobs target the `rpkgs-amd64` / `rpkgs-arm64` agent pools instead of a single named agent (`artemis`/`gaia`).
- Remove the now-unused `AGENT` matrix variable from all build/process/weekly workflows.
- Update header comments to reflect group-based placement.
Agents opt into a pool via `CROW_AGENT_LABELS="group=rpkgs-<arch>"`. The group name derives from each matrix row's `ARCH`, so adding or replacing agents no longer requires touching the workflow files.

The matrix consolidation hardcoded `xvfb-run`, which is absent on the
rhel-10 image (it ships Xwayland's xwfb-run), causing
`xvfb-run: command not found`. Re-add the per-platform launcher detection
the old rhel-10 files used: prefer xwfb-run + weston, fall back to xvfb-run.
Unquoted `PROCESS_NEW: FALSE` is parsed as a YAML boolean and interpolated
into the R command as lowercase `false`, causing `process_new = false` and
`Error: object 'false' not found`. Quoting keeps the literal FALSE/TRUE that
R expects.
The matrix consolidation routed cron events through
`evaluate: 'CI_PIPELINE_CRON == "..."'`, but CI_PIPELINE_CRON is not
exposed to the when.evaluate constraint context, so no matrix row ever
matched and the scheduled process-updates / weekly runs stopped firing.
Switch back to the first-class `cron:` name filter (still parameterized
per matrix row) which the server matches directly against the fired cron.
## Summary
Consolidate the four `build-all-versions*` files into two, mirroring the matrix approach used for the process-updates / weekly families:
| Before | After |
|---|---|
| `build-all-versions-amd64.yaml` + `build-all-versions-arm64.yaml` | `build-all-versions.yaml` |
| `build-all-versions-install-deps-amd64.yaml` + `-arm64.yaml` | `build-all-versions-install-deps.yaml` |
`ARCH` becomes a matrix axis carrying the per-arch differences: `agent` (artemis/gaia), `BACKEND` (kubernetes/docker), and `R_PKG_CACHE_DIR`. Build-all keeps its `SPLIT_INDEX` parallelism, so its matrix is ARCH x SPLIT = 8 rows; only the rows matching the selected arch run.
**Invocation unchanged.** Routing uses the existing task selector `task == "build-all-${ARCH}"`, so `--var task=build-all-amd64 ...` still runs exactly the amd64 rows. `OS` / `OS_VERSION` / `R_VERSION` / `K8S_INSTANCE_TYPE` are still passed via `--var`. (You can drop `--var ARCH=...` now — arch comes from the matrix/task.)
**No cron.** These pipelines are manual-only, so there are no scheduled runs to affect.
## Validation before merge
Same matrix-interpolation-in-`when`/`labels` mechanism validated for #92, plus it now relies on per-row `agent`/`BACKEND` selecting the right execution backend (kubernetes for amd64, docker for arm64). Before merge, on this branch trigger a small `task=build-all-arm64` run and confirm it lands on the gaia/docker backend (and amd64 on artemis/kubernetes). Originals are in git history for rollback.
Note: `archive-missed-packages.yaml` was already a single consolidated matrix file (cron + manual) and is left untouched.

## Summary
Collapse **44** per-platform crow pipeline files into **3** matrix-driven files (one per family), using `matrix.include` + the crow #1165 declarative manual `variables:` block:
| Family | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| process-updates | 14 | `process-updates.yaml` |
| weekly-audit-missing | 16 | `weekly-audit-missing.yaml` |
| weekly-rebuild-missing | 14 | `weekly-rebuild-missing.yaml` |
- **One file per family** (not split by arch). Arch placement is via the agent label as a matrix var (`artemis`=amd64, `gaia`=arm64) for process-updates and weekly-rebuild; weekly-audit keeps its arch-`nodeSelector` placement (no agent label).
- **Matrix axis is named `OS`** (e.g. `redhat-9`) per request, with per-row `R_VERSION`, image tag, codename, and `process_new` (FALSE for alpine).
- **Runs preserved 1:1:**
- *Cron*: each existing `<family>-<os>-<arch>` cron still fires only its matching matrix row via `CI_PIPELINE_CRON`. Server-side cron entries unchanged.
- *Manual*: a #1165 dropdown variable (`process_cran_updates` / `weekly_audit_missing` / `weekly_rebuild_missing`) selects a single `<os>-<arch>` or `all`. weekly-rebuild defaults to `all`, matching its former bare `event: manual` trigger.
## Behavior deltas (intentional, flagged)
To fit one file per family the backend was unified:
- The amd64-only `node.kubernetes.io/instance-type: AX42` nodeSelector pin is **dropped**; placement now relies on the `artemis`/`gaia` agents.
- **process-updates arm64** jobs now share the same `backend_options` as amd64 (resource requests/limits + tolerations) — they previously had none, so they gain an 18Gi memory limit. Tell me if arm64 should stay uncapped.
## Validation required before merge
Relies on crow interpolating matrix variables inside `when.evaluate`, `labels.agent`, and `commands`. Interpolation in image/env/commands is standard crow; the novel bit is `when.evaluate`. The manual dropdown routing exercises the same interpolation as the cron routing, so on this branch:
1. Trigger manually with the dropdown = `redhat-9-amd64` -> confirm only that one job runs (image `build-env-redhat:9`, R 4.4.3, agent artemis).
2. Trigger with `all` -> confirm all os/arch jobs schedule.
Crons only fire on the default branch, so no collision while unmerged. Fallback if `${...}` doesn't interpolate in `when`: a runtime `case "$CI_PIPELINE_CRON" in ...` guard, same files otherwise.

## Summary
When a `build-all-*` workflow is restarted, the build job re-reads the static `pkgs_to_build.rds` that the install-deps step produced once, so it cycles over every package an interrupted run already built. This adds a DB-based skip filter so a restart only processes what is genuinely left.
- At job start, `build-all.R` queries the `single_builds` metadata table for `(name, tag)` already built successfully (`error_occurred = FALSE`) on this `platform`/`arch`, and drops those pairs from the chunk before the build loop. It logs how many it skipped.
- One indexed query, one round trip, run before the pak forks — no extra S3 listing and no new Python/s3fs memory pressure (`RPostgres`/`DBI` are already used in the container).
- Errored versions are intentionally **not** skipped, so transient failures still get retried on restart.
## Dependency
Correctness depends on a `error_occurred = FALSE` row meaning the binary is actually published. That guarantee is added in rpkgs/bincraft#56 (success row written only after a confirmed S3 upload). This PR should land together with / after a bincraft release including that fix.

The sensitive-only multi-R build passes ran under each minor's R but loaded
bincraft from the shared R_LIBS_USER=/mnt/cache/R-pkgs cache, which is compiled
under the primary R and fails to load under a newer minor (e.g. 4.6:
"undefined symbol: SETLENGTH") — so those minor builds silently no-op'd.
Give each non-primary minor its own R_LIBS_USER=/mnt/cache/R-pkgs-<minor> and
install bincraft 4.2.1 there (built for that minor); the rest of bincraft's
deps load from the per-version /opt/R/<minor>/lib. Applied to the
build-all-versions and process-updates sensitive-only passes.
The per-minor upload_package_index() loop invoked each minor's own R, which
loads bincraft from the shared /mnt/cache/R-pkgs cache (compiled under the
primary R). Under a newer minor (e.g. 4.6) that fails to load
("undefined symbol: SETLENGTH") and the index step dies. Indexing is pure S3
work and needs no specific R, so run it under /opt/R/$R_VERSION like the generic
index and build-all-versions already do.
- Pin bincraft v4.2.0 -> v4.2.1 (per-minor archive.rds/index fix) across the
process-updates, weekly-rebuild and archive workflows.
- Restrict the per-R-minor build and index loops to /opt/R/[0-9]* so the
`current` symlink dir is not treated as a distinct minor (avoids double-
building a minor and writing a bogus contrib/current/ index slot).
## Summary
Builds R-minor-sensitive CRAN packages once per installed R minor version (into per-minor S3 slots `…/contrib/<x.y>/`) and everything else once into the generic slot, driven by bincraft 4.2.0's ABI classifier. Both the full and iterative pipelines are covered.
## What's in here
**Detection / precompute**
- `local/r-minor-helpers.R` — pure `classify_from_metadata()` (NeedsCompilation / risky `LinkingTo`) + `parse_build_args()`, with unit tests.
- `local/packages-to-build.R` — adds a per-package `r_minor_sensitive` flag: cheap CRAN-metadata rules first, source download + `bincraft::needs_per_minor_recompile()` only for the ambiguous compiled subset (fail-safe to sensitive). Classified once per package, applied to all versions.
**Full build**
- `local/build-all.R` — passes the per-row `is_r_minor_sensitive` flag; new `--sensitive-only` mode builds just the risky subset.
- `.crow/build-all-versions-{amd64,arm64}.yaml` — install-deps persists the sensitive subset; build step runs a sensitive-only pass under each non-primary `/opt/R/*` minor; new step uploads the generic index plus a per-minor index for each minor.
**Iterative build**
- All 14 `.crow/process-updates-*.yaml` — primary pass uses `r_minor_detection = 'classifier'`; a sensitive-only multi-R pass builds risky updates under each other minor; per-minor index upload added.
**Tooling / housekeeping**
- Pins bincraft `v4.1.1` → `v4.2.0` across all workflows; removes the superseded standalone `build-r-minor-sensitive-packages.yaml`.
- Adds prek/pre-commit hooks (prettier, markdownlint, editorconfig-checker, yamllint, air) and applies them repo-wide; excludes the verbatim GPL `LICENSE.md` and auxiliary shell scripts.
- Design + implementation docs under `docs/superpowers/`.
## Requires before merge
- A `v4.2.0` git tag must be pushed on the bincraft repo (codefloe.com/rpkgs/bincraft) — the workflow install steps pin `@v4.2.0`. The full-build install-deps clones `main`, so it is unaffected.

The `rm -rf /mnt/cache/...` block in 14 `process-updates-*` files had two real issues:
1. `/mnt/cache/pkgcache/R/pkgcache` listed twice — harmless duplicate.
2. `/mnt/cache/R-pkgs/00LOCK-pak/mnt/cache/R-pkgs/00LOCK-RPostgres` — missing a space between two paths, so `rm` walks a nested nonsense path that never exists. The `00LOCK-RPostgres` lock cleanup never actually ran.
Collapses to the same shape `weekly-rebuild-missing-*` already uses:
```
rm -rf /mnt/cache/R-pkgs/00LOCK-* /mnt/cache/R-pkgs/{bincraft,pkgcache} /mnt/cache/pkgcache/R/pkgcache
```
`00LOCK-*` covers every stale lock (pak, bincraft, RPostgres, r-pkg-binaries, …) without enumerating them, so adding a new locked package later doesn't need another YAML touch.

bincraft is baked into the build-env images, but every workflow still unconditionally calls `pak::pak("git::.../bincraft.git")` (~30–60s per job).
Pin bincraft to a specific tag (currently `v4.0.2`) and guard the install on a version check.
```

```
- Image matches the pin → skip install entirely.
- Image is missing bincraft or has a different version → install the pinned tag (covers both broken bakes and intentional version bumps).
- Renovate customManager keeps the pin and the version-check string in sync whenever bincraft cuts a new tag (uses `git-tags` datasource against the bincraft repo).
Touches 43 `.crow` YAMLs + `renovate.json`.

## Summary
`process-updates-*` already calls `bincraft::upload_package_index()` at the end of every daily delta run, and with #71 the CDN purge happens there too.
The dedicated `update-package-index-*` chain re-ran the same `upload_package_index()` against the same S3 prefixes — once per platform per day — and was serialized via `depends_on:` purely to dodge S3 rate limits.
Net effect: ~40 min cold rebuild × 14 platforms = ~9 h/day of duplicated work, with no consumer waiting on it (process-updates had already published the fresh index).
This deletes the 14 chain files (~1.1k lines). The matching `update-package-index` / `update-package-index-*` cron entries on the Crow side become inert with the YAMLs gone and can be removed in a follow-up cron-config change.
Best reviewed alongside (or after):
- #71 — purge CDN after process-updates
- #72 — guard bincraft reinstall
- #73 — drop redundant cranlike/desc installs
## Risks
- If `process-updates-*` ever fails for a given platform, the chain used to act as a daily safety net for the PACKAGES index. Failures will now surface only via the missing daily push instead of being silently masked. The existing `weekly-audit-missing-*` workflow continues to flag stale state.
- `local/manual-package-index-update.R` still exists for one-off manual rebuilds.

```
Imports:

Remotes:
pat-s/cranlike@s3,

```
So `pak::pak("git::https://codefloe.com/rpkgs/bincraft.git")` resolves the forks and installs them transitively. The explicit follow-up `pak::pak("pat-s/cranlike@s3")` and `pak::pak("pat-s/desc@description-from-remote")` calls in `update-package-index-*.yaml` are dead weight.

## Summary
- Switches all 64 `.crow/*.yaml` workflows, the `Justfile`, and the commented-out `build-all-versions-install-deps.yaml` template to the new multi-R-version container images.
- Each image tag drops `-${R_VERSION}` (e.g. `build-env-alpine:3.22-4.5` → `build-env-alpine:3.22`); workflows pick an R version by calling `/opt/R/${R_VERSION}/bin/R` explicitly.
- Pattern-1 workflows (hard-coded image tag) gain a single `R_VERSION:` env var per file.
- Pattern-2 workflows (`build-all-versions-*`, matrix-driven) continue to receive `R_VERSION` via `crow pipeline create --var`.
## Platform → R_VERSION mapping
| Platform | Image | R_VERSION |
| --- | --- | --- |
| alpine 3.22 / 3.23 | `build-env-alpine:3.{22,23}` | 4.5.3 |
| ubuntu jammy / noble | `build-env-ubuntu:{jammy,noble}` | 4.4.3 |
| redhat 8 / 9 | `build-env-redhat:{8,9}` | 4.4.3 |
| redhat 10 | `build-env-redhat:10` | 4.5.3 |
The `alpine-321` audit-only workflows fall back to `build-env-alpine:3.23` since no 3.21 image exists in the new scheme; the audits only query S3/CRAN, so the container OS does not affect correctness.
## Bug fixes folded in
1. All six `weekly-audit-missing-alpine-*.yaml` files were pinned to `alpine:3.23-4.5` regardless of platform.
Now each one points at its own alpine image.
2. All fourteen `update-package-index-*.yaml` files were pinned to `build-env-ubuntu:noble-4.4` (or `noble-4.5` for `redhat-10-amd64`) regardless of platform.
Now each one uses its own platform's image.
3. `process-updates-ubuntu-2404-{amd64,arm64}.yaml` had `R_VERSION` of `4.4` (no patch) baked into the tag.
Aligned to `4.4.3`, matching the audit and rebuild counterparts.
## Smoke targets (post-merge)
One workflow per shape, ready to dry-run:

- `build-r-minor-sensitive-packages.yaml`
## Follow-ups (out of scope, surfaced during review)
- `process-updates-redhat-10-{amd64,arm64}.yaml` set `codename = "rhel9"` in their `upload_package_index(...)` calls.
Pre-existing bug — should be `"rhel10"`. The `update-package-index-redhat-10-*` counterparts already use `"rhel10"` correctly.
- `update-package-index-redhat-8-amd64.yaml` is missing the `packageVersion("bincraft")` diagnostic line that every sibling file has.

Both pipelines had platform = 'alpine-321' instead of their actual target, causing builds to upload to the wrong S3 path and the PACKAGES index to not reflect newly built packages.
- Load bincraft eagerly via library() to avoid lazy-load memory spike
- Do bulk S3 listing upfront and pass as s3_package_cache to avoid
per-package S3 calls that accumulate memory and trigger fork failures
- Consolidate amd64/arm64 exclude lists into single script
- Much easier to read and maintain than a YAML-embedded one-liner
The precompute script was constructing S3 paths as "redhat10" while
bincraft uses "rhel10" as the codename. This mismatch caused the
precompute to find no existing packages in S3, producing ~77K false
positive package versions that all get skipped at build time.
Now uses bincraft::set_codename() to ensure path alignment.
Also fixes nrow() vs length() in install-deps summary message.
force=TRUE bypasses the error-DB filter and overwrites build metadata,
causing failed packages to be retried indefinitely. Since the precompute
step already filters to missing versions, force is unnecessary.
Each process-updates workflow now calls upload_package_index at the end to update the PACKAGES files for its platform/arch immediately after builds complete. The full update-package-index cron should be rescheduled to weekly.
