Update Copilot setup workflow for containerized runner - #425
Merged
Conversation
- Use /opt/venv as base Python with --system-site-packages for the task venv, bridging packages via site.addsitedir() in a .pth file so editable installs (e.g. triton) are discovered correctly - Export UV_CACHE_DIR via $GITHUB_ENV (other env vars are set by runner-container.env) - Create cache directories under $RUNNER_WORKDIR - Install iris in editable mode (pip install -e .) - Add IntelliKit Python packages (linex, metrix) - Clone IntelliKit repo for MCP servers and install agent skills - Install uv for MCP server dependency management - Reduce timeout from 600 to 59 minutes Made-with: Cursor

- Updated pip install commands to use --no-cache-dir for all package installations, improving consistency and reducing potential cache-related issues. - Added PYTHONPATH environment variable to ensure proper package discovery in the virtual environment. - Cleaned up unnecessary cache directory creation and related comments.

Pull request overview
Updates the GitHub Actions workflow used to prepare a Copilot task environment on a containerized runner, shifting to a base /opt/venv Python and adding IntelliKit tooling and agent-skill installation steps.
Changes:
- Create a task venv from
/opt/venvusing--system-site-packages, then install the repo in editable mode. - Install multiple IntelliKit subpackages, install
uv, clone IntelliKit, and install agent skills via a remote script. - Adjust environment setup (
GITHUB_PATH,PYTHONPATH) for subsequent steps.

Installing multiple subdirectories via separate git+https URLs will typically re-clone/fetch the repo repeatedly, slowing the job and increasing flakiness due to network variability. A more efficient approach is to git clone once (you already do later) and then install the needed subprojects from local paths, or otherwise restructure to avoid repeated network fetches.
