fix(deploy): build ki-deploy-helper from repo when missing (KI-446) #108

Merged

Fix: ki-deploy-helper image vanishes between deploys (KI-446)

Problem: deploy-staging (KI-446) failed with Unable to find image 'ki-deploy-helper:latest' — the same class of failure as KI-439. The docker executor prunes the locally-built helper image between runs, so the deploy job can't rely on it persisting on the host.

Fix:

Version the helper Dockerfile in-repo at deploy/helper/Dockerfile (context-independent — no COPY/ADD, so any build context works)
The deploy-staging job now checks docker image inspect ki-deploy-helper and builds it from the repo when missing, before running the deploy

Why this is durable: the image definition is now version-controlled (in the repo, reviewed via PR, part of the checkout) instead of a hand-maintained artifact at /opt/ki-deploy-helper/. Even if the executor prunes it every run, the deploy self-heals.

Verified

tod build check-spec passes
Helper image rebuilt on host successfully (ki-deploy-helper:latest)
Same fix pattern as KI-106 (COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME pin) — deploy hardening

fix(deploy): build ki-deploy-helper from repo when missing (KI-446 )

The helper image keeps getting pruned between deploys (same class as KI-439).
Version the Dockerfile in-repo at deploy/helper/Dockerfile (context-independent,
no COPY) and have the deploy-staging job build it on the host daemon when
'docker image inspect' fails — no more manual rebuild dependency.
