I've had a quick look at the new repo, and there is a lot there that I like: I think this is a good direction for the VM tests to head in, and I think it will enable us to land other useful features in future (e.g.: converting the test strategy from code to data). I haven't done a thorough review of the code yet (there's a lot of net-new code in the refactored

trgill virt-framework pyproject.toml console_scripts virt-framework
💡 Result:
There is no widely recognized or major Python project specifically named "virt-framework" maintained by a user named "trgill." Searches for this specific combination yield no direct results. It is highly likely that the term "virt-framework" is being used in your context to describe one of several historical or specialized virtualization testing tools, or it is a private/local project. Notable historical projects related to virtualization testing include: 1. virt-test: A Linux virtualization test suite that was previously under the Autotest framework and later transitioned to become part of the Avocado-VT plugin [1][2][3]. 2. Avocado-VT / Avocado-virt: Frameworks developed for virtualization testing [4][5]. 3. Virtue: A SKILL and Python framework for automating Cadence Virtuoso [6][7]. Regarding the pyproject.toml configuration for console_scripts: In modern Python packaging, console_scripts are defined in the pyproject.toml file under the [project.scripts] table, not [console_scripts] [8]. This configuration allows you to define command-line entry points that point to a specific function in your Python package [9][8]. Example format in pyproject.toml: [project.scripts] virt-framework = "your_package.module:main_function" When you install a package with this configuration, the build backend creates an executable named virt-framework that, when run, executes the specified function [9][10]. Note that if you are manually maintaining a project, you should ensure your build system (e.g., setuptools, flit, or poetry) supports these tables and that you are following the PEP 621 metadata standards [11][8]. If you are encountering issues where scripts are not installing, check if you have specified the scripts as dynamic in your metadata or if your build backend requires explicit configuration [12].

💡 Result:
There is no public GitHub repository or tool named "virt-framework" associated with the user "trgill" (Todd Gill) [1]. The user "trgill" on GitHub is a Red Hat employee whose repositories include projects such as csi-local, blivet, and boom, but none named "virt-framework" [1]. The term "virt-framework" or "Virtualization.framework" most commonly refers to Apple's Virtualization framework [2][3], a system API for macOS that allows for the creation and management of virtual machines [2]. While there are various open-source projects that interact with this framework—such as the Go bindings provided by Code-Hex/vz [2] or tools like vfkit [2]—these are not associated with a repository called "virt-framework" under "trgill". Additionally, the command-line flags you mentioned (--storage, --repo, --ref-name) do not correspond to any known, standardized tool or repository by that name. It is possible these flags belong to a private, internal, or differently named project, or that the query contains a typo regarding the repository owner or name. Given the publicly available information, no such project exists under the specified user [1].

Do not run workflow jobs from an unpinned CI dependency.
virt-framework is installed from github.com/trgill/virt-framework.git@main, not a full commit SHA. A later push to main can change the virt-framework console script and CLI contract, causing every matrix job to fail at this step.
