## Summary The `NODE_OPTIONS=--use-system-ca` workaround merged in #199 did not clear the CI install failure — the runner still rejects the TLS chain to `node-precompiled-binaries.grpc.io`. Either the runner's OS CA bundle is missing the same intermediate Node's bundled set is missing, or `--use-system-ca` does not propagate down to the `node-fetch@2` that `node-pre-gyp` uses. Without runner shell access the exact reason is not worth chasing. Switch angle: **the protoc binary `grpc-tools` downloads is never used in CI**. The generated TypeScript stubs in `apps/portal-bff/src/grpc/gen/` are committed per [ADR-0024](docs/decisions/0024-ai-service-relay-grpc-sse-bridge.md) §"Sub-decision 3 — vendored protos", so CI only needs to type-check them; protoc only runs when a developer regenerates from `apps/portal-bff/src/grpc/proto/apf-ai/*.proto`. This PR moves `grpc-tools` from `devDependencies` to `optionalDependencies`. Per pnpm semantics, when an optional dep's install (including postinstall) fails, pnpm logs a warning and the overall install completes. CI's `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` therefore succeeds even when the binary cannot be fetched; developer machines (where TLS validates) install grpc-tools normally and `pnpm grpc:codegen` works unchanged. ## What lands - `package.json` — `grpc-tools: "^1.13.0"` moves out of `devDependencies` and into a new `optionalDependencies` block. The entry in `pnpm.onlyBuiltDependencies` stays — it controls whether pnpm *attempts* the postinstall, not whether failure is fatal. Local installs (where TLS works) still run the postinstall and download the binary. - `pnpm-lock.yaml` — refreshed; the lockfile reflects the new optional-dep classification. No version changes to anything else. - `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` — revert the workflow-level `env: NODE_OPTIONS: --use-system-ca` block added in #199. Did not help; left in place it would be a misleading "this is supposed to fix CI TLS" signpost. - `.gitea/workflows/docs-site.yml` — same revert. ## Notes for the reviewer - **Why `optionalDependencies` is the right primitive.** pnpm 10 documents the contract: a package listed in `optionalDependencies` is *attempted*; if the install fails for any reason (platform mismatch, postinstall script error, network failure), the failure is logged and the overall command continues. That maps exactly to what this PR needs: try in CI, fail gracefully, succeed locally. - **Why not remove `grpc-tools` from `pnpm.onlyBuiltDependencies` instead.** Removing it from the allowlist tells pnpm not to even *try* the postinstall, which would also fix CI. But it would also break the developer workflow — locally, the protoc binary would never download, and `pnpm grpc:codegen` would fail. The dev would have to manually trigger the build (`pnpm approve-builds` then `pnpm rebuild grpc-tools`), or worse, devs would commit accidental `package.json` mutations from `approve-builds`. The `optionalDependencies` route keeps the local DX identical. - **Why revert the workflow `env:` blocks.** They do not help here, and leaving them in place implies that `--use-system-ca` is the canonical fix for this class of failure — which it is *not*, at least not for this runner / this CDN. If a future native dep hits a similar wall and `--use-system-ca` *does* fix it for that case, the env var lands in a focused PR with a real validation. Carrying it now as a "maybe useful later" workaround is noise. - **Codegen workflow on developer machines.** Unchanged. `pnpm install` runs the postinstall (TLS validates locally), the protoc binary lands in `node_modules/`, `pnpm grpc:codegen` regenerates stubs. The only visible difference is a one-line `WARN GET_RESOLVED_FROM_REGISTRY ...` if a contributor ever encounters the same TLS failure locally (e.g., on a corporate-proxied machine) — pnpm will mark grpc-tools as failed-optional and the rest of the install proceeds; the dev can then debug their own network without blocking the whole repo. - **Idempotence with CI's `--frozen-lockfile`.** The lockfile change is small (re-classifies grpc-tools from `dev` to `optional`) and lands in this PR. After merge, CI runs against the new lockfile; no further coordination needed. ## Test plan - [x] `pnpm install` locally — clean, grpc-tools postinstall runs successfully (TLS validates), protoc binary present. - [x] `pnpm grpc:codegen` — regenerates the TypeScript stubs identically (no diff in `apps/portal-bff/src/grpc/gen/`). - [x] `pnpm nx run-many -t lint test build -p portal-shell,portal-admin,portal-bff,shared-ui,shared-charts` — all five projects green. - [ ] **CI green on this PR's first run.** The validation that matters: `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile` completes despite grpc-tools' postinstall failure; `ci:check` runs to completion. - [ ] Spot-check of post-merge CI runs over the next few days to confirm the warning is recurring (expected) and the install never fails (the contract). ## What's next - If the CI behaviour is what this PR predicts (warning instead of failure), no further action required. - If `optionalDependencies` does not work as documented (highly unlikely, but possible if the pnpm version has a regression), the fallback is to drop `grpc-tools` from `pnpm.onlyBuiltDependencies` and add a small dev-onboarding note. One-line change away. - Long-term cleanup: if a future PR migrates the codegen step to a Docker-based tool (`buf`, system protoc) the optional-dep entry can be removed entirely. Out of scope here. --------- Co-authored-by: Julien Gautier <julien.gautier@apf.asso.fr> Reviewed-on: #200
