) Replace local collection installation with ansible-navigator using registry.redhat.io/ansible-automation-platform-26/ee-supported-rhel9:latest. Collections now pre-installed in EE image — no ansible-galaxy install required. Benefits: - Consistency: same container locally and in AAP - Red Hat support: certified collections in tested combinations - Zero collection management overhead - Dev-prod parity: identical execution environment Changes: - Add ansible-navigator.yml config with volume mounts and env passthrough - Add scripts/bootstrap.sh wrapper with validation and token extraction - Remove collections_path from ansible.cfg - Move Automation Hub token to env var lookup (remove hardcoded token) - Update CLAUDE.md prerequisites and bootstrap workflow - Update .gitignore for navigator artifacts Migration path: 1. podman login registry.redhat.io 2. podman pull registry.redhat.io/ansible-automation-platform-26/ee-supported-rhel9:latest 3. pip install ansible-navigator 4. Run bootstrap: ansible-navigator run playbooks/bootstrap_dev.yml -i inventories/<name>/ Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
