I don't understand why you'd want them to built another CI system. Just for the sake of it?

Feels like using a free Jenkins gets you everything you want. Doesn't need more than a container or Java either.

That's also perfectly fine if that's what it is. I would just phrase that as "They don't have CI but they provide hooks."

it's a little of both: on the one hand we're working on CI integrations (through generic webhooks or CI-engine-specific adapters that basically implement the CI engine's API [1]), so you can keep on using your existing CI solution. On the other hand, yes, there is also work towards a new CI engine (Ambient [2]), which aims to make it safe and secure to run CI on other people's code, which is important when working towards a distributed, community-ran, CI system. We should have more docs regarding the CI story up on radicle.dev in the next week or two.
