Restructures CI/CD pipeline to eliminate redundant Docker image builds
across parallel test workflows. Previously, every PR triggered 5 separate
builds of identical images, consuming compute resources unnecessarily and
contributing to registry storage bloat.
Registry storage was growing at 20GB/week due to unmanaged transient tags
from multiple parallel builds. While automated cleanup exists, preventing
the creation of redundant images is more efficient than cleaning them up.
Changes CI/CD orchestration so docker-build.yml is the single source of
truth for all Docker images. Integration tests (CrowdSec, Cerberus, WAF,
Rate Limiting) and E2E tests now wait for the build to complete via
workflow_run triggers, then pull the pre-built image from GHCR.
PR and feature branch images receive immutable tags that include commit
SHA (pr-123-abc1234, feature-dns-provider-def5678) to prevent race
conditions when branches are updated during test execution. Tag
sanitization handles special characters, slashes, and name length limits
to ensure Docker compatibility.
Adds retry logic for registry operations to handle transient GHCR
failures, with dual-source fallback to artifact downloads when registry
pulls fail. Preserves all existing functionality and backward
compatibility while reducing parallel build count from 5× to 1×.
Security scanning now covers all PR images (previously skipped),
blocking merges on CRITICAL/HIGH vulnerabilities. Concurrency groups
prevent stale test runs from consuming resources when PRs are updated
mid-execution.
Expected impact: 80% reduction in compute resources, 4× faster
total CI time (120min → 30min), prevention of uncontrolled registry
storage growth, and 100% consistency guarantee (all tests validate
the exact same image that would be deployed).
Closes #[issue-number-if-exists]

Reduced E2E startup time from 8m to <15s
Verified fixes against parallel shard logs

Add missing emergency token environment variable to all E2E test workflows to
fix security teardown failures in CI. Without this token, the emergency reset
endpoint returns 501 "not configured", causing test teardown to fail and
leaving ACL enabled, which blocks 83 subsequent tests.
Changes:
Add CHARON_EMERGENCY_TOKEN to docker-build.yml test-image job
Add CHARON_EMERGENCY_TOKEN to e2e-tests.yml e2e-tests job
Add CHARON_EMERGENCY_TOKEN to playwright.yml playwright job
Verified:
Docker build strategy already optimal (build once, push to both GHCR + Docker Hub)
Testing strategy correct (test once by digest, validates both registries)
All workflows now have environment parity with local development setup
Requires GitHub repository secret:
Name: CHARON_EMERGENCY_TOKEN
Value: 64-char hex token (e.g., from openssl rand -hex 32)
Related:
Emergency endpoint rate limiting removal (proper fix)
Local emergency token configuration (.env, docker-compose.local.yml)
