🌐 Web query:

Renovate local preset syntax local> platform local presets cannot be resolved visitedPresets.merged

💡 Result:

The error involving visitedPresets.merged is a general internal tracking mechanism within Renovate's preset resolution engine [1], which is often exposed when Renovate encounters a critical failure while trying to resolve a configuration preset [2][3]. When combined with the message that local> presets "cannot be resolved," it almost always indicates a context mismatch where Renovate is running in an environment that lacks access to the platform-specific API needed to fetch the preset [4][5][3]. Common Causes and Solutions: 1. Running with --platform=local If you are running Renovate locally (e.g., using renovate --platform=local or in a CI environment that defaults to local mode), Renovate cannot resolve local> presets because it does not have a "platform" context (such as GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket) to perform API calls [4][2]. - Solution: You must either provide the necessary environment variables (like PLATFORM, ENDPOINT, and TOKEN) so Renovate can identify the host platform [5], or if you only need to validate config, use a tool specifically designed to handle local preset resolution [2]. 2. Missing Platform Credentials If you are running in a CI environment that is intended to communicate with a remote repository, the runner may lack the required authentication to access the repository hosting the local> preset [6][3]. - Solution: Ensure the Renovate instance is configured with a valid platform token that has permissions to access the private repository containing the preset [6]. 3. Misconfigured Preset Path Verify that the local> preset string follows the required syntax [7]. The standard format is local>owner/repository or local>owner/repository//path/to/preset. If you are using a tag, it should be appended with # (e.g., local>owner/repo#tag) [7]. If the path is not correctly formatted, Renovate will fail to locate the file, triggering a resolution error [7][3]. If you are performing configuration validation (e.g., renovate-config-validator) and hitting this error, it is a known limitation when the validator is run in an environment that cannot resolve the remote repository hosting the preset [3]. In this case, you may need to mock the environment or bypass the preset check during local validation [2].

Merge EduIDE/.github#4 before this change.

The target main branch does not contain renovate-config.json, so local>EduIDE/.github:renovate-config can fail to resolve until pull request #4 merges. Then run Renovate on the target platform and confirm the preset appears in visitedPresets.merged. Do not use --platform=local.

In `@renovate.json` at line 3, Merge EduIDE/.github pull request `#4` before
applying the renovate.json change, then run Renovate on the target platform and
verify the preset is listed in visitedPresets.merged; retain the
local>EduIDE/.github:renovate-config preset and do not use the local platform.
