Comment (by hellais):

 15:39 < hellais> deckgen is sort of a poormans solution to #12551
 15:40 < hellais> what that ticket is supposed to specify is something that
 allows us to define dynamically what we want probes to run without having
 to instruct our users to run some specific commands,
                  but it would all happen automatically without any user
 intervention
 15:41 < hellais> it also allows us to have one central location where we
 can define new tests and inputs to be used by probes and immediately have
 them be scheduled to be run by the probes
 15:42 < hellais> how I imagine it working is that we provision the bouncer
 with a set of decks for every country and the probe will poll the bouncer
 asking "What should I do given I'm from this
                  country". The bouncer would then reply with a deck.
