The group variables originally in ansible/group_vars/ were playbook group variables, due to being adjacent to the playbooks. Typically they provided default values for global variables in the all group, as well as some more specific groups. This has worked fairly well, but results in (at least) a couple of problems. 1. The default variable precedence rules mean that these playbook group variables have a higher precedence than inventory group variables (for a given group). This can make it challenging to override playbook group variables in the inventory in Kayobe configuration. 2. Any playbook run by Kayobe must be in the same directory as the playbook group variables in order to use them. Given that they include variables required for connectivity such as ansible_host and ansible_user, this is quite critical. For Kayobe custom playbooks, we work around this by symlinking to the group_vars directory from the directory containing the custom playbook. This is not an elegant workaround, and has assumptions about the relative paths of the Kayobe configuration and virtual environment in which Kayobe is installed.
