# infra-run/ansible/inventory/group_vars This folder is reserved for shared Ansible variables applied to inventory groups. It is the right place for environment defaults, role inputs, and group-level operational settings. ## Diagram ```mermaid flowchart LR A["group_vars"] --> B["Environment defaults"] A --> C["Role parameters"] A --> D["Shared operational values"] ``` ## Notes - Use this layer when multiple hosts should inherit the same configuration. - The directory is currently a placeholder and does not expose environment-specific data.
