+# Job generation
+
+## Naming schema for the jobs generated
+
+  * Separator: `-` reserved symbol. The different parts can not use the `-` symbol with the exception of
+    the {package_name} section.
+  * Parts: chars between separators or between a separator and the beginning or the end of the job name
+  * Section: a group of parts that have some meaning about the job goal
+
+### Categories of jobs
+
+  0. Common sections
+  1. Jobs affecting releasing
+  2. Jobs affecting the continuous integration of Gazebo libraries
+  3. Jobs affecting the testing and building of the source code
+
+### 0. Common sections
+
+Parts composing composing the **package_name** section:
+
+`{package_name}`:
+ * Parts: 1
+   * Name of the gazebo library with its major version (as appearing in CMakeLists) used as a target for the job action.
+     Using dashes is aceptable only in this case. Examples: `gz-fuel-tools9-` or `sdformat15-`
+
+Parts composing the **platform** section:
+```
+{so_variant}-{arch}
+```
+
+Due to problems with the max length of paths in the Windows command line, the Windows jobs use a different schema:
+ * `win`: windows short-name implying colcon builds on amd64 using vcpkg packages.
+
+**Sections:**
+
+---
+
+`{so_variant}`
+ * Parts: 2
+   * Platform description relative to the operative system and/or package manager. Examples:
+     ubuntu distributions `jammy` and Mac Brew `homebrew`
+   * TODO: separate concepts of OS and provisioner or build system
+
+---
+
+`arch`
+ * Parts: 1
+  * Architecture used in the build. Examples `arm64` or `amd64`
+
+
+### 1. Jobs affecting releasing
+
+Sections composing the name:
+
+```
+{package_name}-{release_stage}
+```
+
+**Sections:**
+
+ `{package_name}`: see common sections
+
+---
+
+`{release_stage}`:
+ * Parts: 1
+   * Release stage for the `{package_name}` defined.
+
+__Knowing actions and their parts__:
+
+ * `debbuilder`: Linux builders for `{package_name}`
+ * `source`: job creating the sources when releasing `{package_name}`
+
+### 2. Jobs affecting the testing of the binary packages
+
+```
+{package_name}-{testing_type}-{platform}
+```
+
+**Sections:**
+
+`{package_name}`: see common sections
+
+---
+
+`{testing_type}`: literals: `-install-pkg-` or `-install_bottle-`
+
+---
+
+`{platform}`: see common sections
+
+
+### 3. Jobs affecting the testing and building of the source code
+
+Sections composing the name:
+
+```
+{lib_name}-{testing_type}-{platform}
+```
+
+**Sections:**
+
+`{lib_name}`:
+ * Parts: 1
+   * Name (without major versions) of the Gazebo library using underscores instead of hyphens.
+     Examples: `gz_cmake` or `gz_fuel_tools`
+
+---
+
+`{testing_type}`:
+ * Parts: 1..N
+   * Part 1: kind of testing job. Examples: ci, install, etc.
+   * Part 2..N: modifiers for the kind of testing job in part 1
+
+__Knowing testing types and parts__:
+
+ * `ci`: build and test that runs on
+   * `pr_any`: branch/gitref of a repository is defined as a job input parameter. `ci-pr_any-`
+   * `{branch}`: branch/gitref explicit name. Examples: `-ci-gz-cmake4-` or `-ci-gz-sim8-`
+ * `ci_asan`: build and test with asan sanitizers on
+   * `{branch}`: branch/gitref explicit name. `-ci_asan-sdf12-`
+     * `{platorm}`: see common sections
+ * `abichecker`:
+    * `any_to_any-ubuntu`: abi checking job for two branches defined a job input parameters. `-abichecker-any_to_any-ubuntu-`
+      * TODO: remove the ubuntu part using a migration strategy for existing PR
+
+Due to problems with the max length of paths in the Windows command line, the Windows jobs use a different schema:
+ * `{number}`: Windows short-name implying `-ci-{branch}` being branch library_name+{number}. Example: `-5-` on gz-common will imply branch gz-common5
+ * `pr` Windows short-name implying  `-ci-pr_any-`. Example: `-pr-` on gz-physics will imply the PR job on gz-physics

+`{platform}`: see common sections
