CI pipelines

Pipelines: the short version

One token per pipeline, kept in the pipeline secrets, and the same commands as your laptop.

1. Make a token just for the pipeline, named after it, like storefront-ci. Ask an admin to place it in the application and environment it builds for.
2. Save it as a secret in your CI system, for example REPO_TOKEN.
3. Use the same setup commands as on your laptop, reading the token from that secret.
4. Use npm ci, pip install -r requirements.txt or pinned image tags, so builds install exactly what you tested.
