The freeipa_deployment.py DAG imports SSHOperator from airflow.providers.ssh, which requires the apache-airflow-providers-ssh package. Added this package to both CI validation workflows to fix import errors. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
Adds lint check #6 to detect manual SSH patterns in BashOperator (e.g., ssh root@localhost) and suggest using SSHOperator instead. This helps enforce the SSHOperator migration pattern established in this PR. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
The airflow binary wasn't found because pip installs it to a scripts directory that isn't in PATH by default. Added the same PATH fix that airflow-validate.yml uses. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
The airflow CLI wasn't reliably available in PATH even after adding to GITHUB_PATH. Using python -m airflow ensures the command works regardless of PATH configuration. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
python -m airflow doesn't work. Instead, export the scripts directory to PATH inline in each step that needs airflow CLI. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
Adding debug output to understand why airflow binary is not found even after adding scripts directory to PATH. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
The setup-python cache: 'pip' option was causing the airflow CLI binary to not be installed properly. Removed the cache to ensure fresh installation with CLI binaries. Also cleaned up debug code. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
GITHUB_PATH changes may not take effect immediately between steps. Added inline PATH export with verification in steps that need the airflow CLI. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
- Combined Install and Initialize steps into one to avoid PATH issues between steps - Added airflow/scripts/ci-setup.sh for future refactoring - The script can be used for local testing and cleaner CI 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
Adding detailed debug output to understand where the airflow binary is being installed and why it's not found. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
The apache-airflow-providers-ssh package without constraints was upgrading Apache Airflow from 2.10.4 to 3.x, breaking the airflow CLI. Now using official Airflow constraints file to ensure compatible package versions. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>
SSHOperator in Airflow 2.x uses 'cmd_timeout' parameter, not 'command_timeout'. Fixed all occurrences in freeipa_deployment.py. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <[email protected]>

Files Modified: 6
Lines Changed: ~850 (net addition of documentation and helper functions)
Bugs Fixed: 7 critical string concatenation issues
Security Issues: 0

Next Steps (Optional)
Additional DAGs that could benefit from SSHOperator migration:
vyos_router_deployment.py- 49 SSH referencesHowever, the core pattern is established and documented. Other teams can follow the migration guide in SSH-CONNECTION-SETUP.md.
