+# Jenkins Pipeline Configuration
+
+This directory contains Jenkins pipeline definitions for the dremio-diagnostic-collector project.
+
+## Pipelines
+
+- **build.Jenkinsfile** - Main build pipeline that creates a K3s cluster and runs tests
+- **release.Jenkinsfile** - Release pipeline for publishing releases
+- **delete.Jenkinsfile** - Cleanup pipeline
+- **agent.yaml** - Kubernetes pod template for Jenkins agents
+
+## Build Pipeline Configuration
+
+The `build.Jenkinsfile` uses **build parameters** that appear in the Jenkins UI when you click "Build with Parameters".
+
+### Build Parameters
+
+After the first build, Jenkins will show a "Build with Parameters" button with the following options:
+
+| Parameter | Description | Default Value |
+|-----------|-------------|---------------|
+| `GCP_PROJECT_ID` | Google Cloud Project ID | `your-gcp-project` |
+| `GCP_ZONE` | GCP zone for VM instances | `us-west1-b` |
+| `GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT` | GCP service account email | `your-sa@developer.gserviceaccount.com` |
+| `GCP_NETWORK_SUBNET` | GCP subnet name | `primary-west` |
+| `GCP_MACHINE_TYPE` | GCE instance machine type | `e2-standard-16` |
+| `GCP_DISK_SIZE` | Boot disk size in GB | `100` |
+| `GCP_DISK_POLICY` | (Optional) Disk resource policy | _(empty)_ |
+| `GCP_IMAGE` | GCE boot disk image | `projects/debian-cloud/global/images/debian-12-bookworm-v20240910` |
+| `CLEANUP_INSTANCES` | Delete instances after build? | `true` |
+
+**Note:** On the first build, click "Build Now" to let Jenkins discover the parameters. After that, you'll see "Build with Parameters" instead.
+
+### Required Vault Secrets
+
+The build pipeline requires Google Cloud service account credentials stored in HashiCorp Vault:
+
+**Path:** `secret/support/private/gcloud-service-account`  
+**Key:** `credentials-file`  
+**Value:** Complete JSON content of the GCP service account key file
+
+### How to Use
+
+1. **First Build**: Click "Build Now" - Jenkins will scan the Jenkinsfile and discover the parameters
+2. **Subsequent Builds**: Click "Build with Parameters" - You'll see a form with all the parameters
+3. **Fill in your values** (or use the defaults)
+4. **Click Build**
+
+**Example values for Dremio:**
+```
+GCP_PROJECT_ID: dremio-1093
+GCP_ZONE: us-west1-b
+GCP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT: 73420150722-compute@developer.gserviceaccount.com
+GCP_NETWORK_SUBNET: primary-west
+GCP_DISK_POLICY: projects/dremio-1093/regions/us-west1/resourcePolicies/regression-spark3hive
+CLEANUP_INSTANCES: true
+```
+
+## Pipeline Stages
+
+The build pipeline consists of the following stages:
+
+1. **Setup** - Install basic dependencies (bash, curl, gcloud SDK)
+2. **Install k3sup** - Download and install k3sup tool for K3s cluster management
+3. **GCloud Auth & SSH Setup** - Authenticate with GCP and generate SSH keys
+4. **Create GCE Instances** - Spin up 4 GCE instances in parallel
+5. **Setup K3s Cluster** - Install K3s master node and join worker nodes
+6. **Install Build Tools** - Download Go and kubectl
+7. **Build** - Execute the actual build via `./script/cibuild`
+
+## Automatic Cleanup
+
+The build pipeline can **automatically clean up** all GCE instances after the build completes. This is controlled by the `CLEANUP_INSTANCES` parameter:
+
+- **`CLEANUP_INSTANCES=true`** (default): Deletes all 4 VMs after build completes (success or failure)
+- **`CLEANUP_INSTANCES=false`**: Leaves VMs running for debugging/investigation
+
+### When cleanup is enabled:
+
+- No VMs are left running (avoiding unnecessary costs)
+- Cleanup happens even if the build fails
+- All 4 instances are deleted in parallel for speed
+
+The cleanup stage will show output like:
+```
+Cleanup enabled - deleting GCE instances...
+Starting cleanup of GCE instances...
+Deleting k8s-ddc-ci-1-123
+Deleting k8s-ddc-ci-2-123
+Deleting k8s-ddc-ci-3-123
+Deleting k8s-ddc-ci-4-123
+  ✓ Successfully deleted k8s-ddc-ci-1-123
+  ✓ Successfully deleted k8s-ddc-ci-2-123
+  ✓ Successfully deleted k8s-ddc-ci-3-123
+  ✓ Successfully deleted k8s-ddc-ci-4-123
+Deletion complete
+```
+
+### When cleanup is disabled:
+
+```
+Cleanup disabled - GCE instances will remain running
+Instance names: k8s-ddc-ci-{1..4}-123
+To delete manually, run the delete.Jenkinsfile job
+```
+
+## Security Notes
+
+- Never commit GCP credentials, project IDs, or service account emails directly to the repository
+- Use environment variables or Vault for all sensitive configuration
+- Rotate service account keys regularly
+- Use least-privilege service accounts with only necessary permissions
+
