Fix docker molecule-config schema validation failure - #44
Merged
Conversation
molecule-plugins 26.7.15 added a JSON schema for the docker driver (ansible-community/molecule-plugins#340) requiring platforms.command to be a string. The command: "" line here was already turned into a YAML null by the yq e --inplace prepare-playbook step regardless of the quoting, so it never actually applied as an empty string - only the new schema check started rejecting the resulting null. Removing the line keeps the same effective behavior (no command override) while passing validation. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
