Research direction

Start from the compose files and the image entry where RUNNER_MODE gets its default, and read the compose equality tests (T03) that check them. The work is blocked until issues ##334 and ##332 land and a soak period has passed, so confirm those first. Done means the default is split, legacy still works via RUNNER_MODE=legacy, the docs and release notes cover the flip, the fallback and the App-then-runners deploy order, and the smoke and unit tests T01 to T04 pass.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

area: ops post-mvp type: chore

Part of ##316. Phase 2.

Problem

After a soak period the split should become the default for self-hosted deployments, with the legacy mode kept as a documented fallback.

Design

Flip the default of RUNNER_MODE to split in the compose files and the image entry after a few weeks of operators running split without problems (the soak report is part of the PR). Update docs and release notes, keep legacy selectable, and add the deploy-order note (App first, then runners).

Scope

Default change, docs, release notes, deploy-order note.

Out of scope

Removing the legacy loop (##336).

Depends on

##334, ##332 and the soak period.

Test cases

ID kind level case expected
T01 regression image smoke stack smoke with defaults jobs run through the split
T02 regression image smoke RUNNER_MODE=legacy jobs run through the legacy loop
T03 regression unit compose equality tests pass
T04 docs review release notes state the flip, the fallback and the order
