asdf compiles python from source and the runner image lacks libbz2/readline/lzma headers, so the build silently drops those modules and pip fails later.
`#noqa rule` is not recognised; ansible-lint needs `# noqa: rule`.
buildoor wins on group precedence, so a client whose args it does not re-merge loses its own base args (bootnodes included). Only prysm/lighthouse/lodestar were re-merged, which left teku and grandine buildoor nodes unusable. Split teku/grandine into _simple_args the same way the other three already are, add their merge entries, and give every client its subscribe-all-subnets flag — a builder has to see every attestation subnet to value a payload correctly. Flags verified against consensys/teku:latest and ethpandaops/grandine:develop. Also point buildoor at the config service's validator-ranges endpoint so the overview can label builders by the range they serve.
Devnet peers are few and often share a /24, which prysm's colocation limit treats as a sybil cluster and refuses to peer with.
An empty VPC per region is still billable surface and blocks project teardown.
check_deps reports every missing external tool with an install hint instead of failing on the first one mid-run. send_funds sends plain ETH to an address.

Backports the generic improvements that ran ahead in
glamsterdam-devnetsandbal-devnetsbut never made it back here. Most of the earlier drift has already landed on master (coredevs SSH rosters, buildoor, the IPv6 rework,sync_mapping, the template-name guard, inventory-path derivation) — this is what was left.The buildoor gap below is a bug found while auditing rather than a straight copy.
buildoor only covered 3 of 5 consensus clients
buildoorwins on group precedence viaansible_group_priority=100, so any client whose args it does not re-merge silently loses that client's own args — bootnodes included. Only prysm, lighthouse and lodestar were re-merged, which left teku and grandine buildoor nodes unusable.Split teku/grandine into
*_container_command_extra_simple_args(the pattern the other three already use), added their merge entries, and gave every client its subscribe-all-subnets flag — a builder has to see every attestation subnet to value a payload correctly.Every flag was verified against the real binaries rather than trusted from the source repo:
