Summary

1. the docs on dynamic pipelines need to be updated to reflect the job/trigger/include/artifacts key. I cant find it anywhere explained in this context. The docs just ref the normal/global include: which to me makes no sense to explain artifacts there. E.g:

my-trigger-job:
  ...
  trigger:
    include:
      - artifact: mdm-curated.yml
        job: set-vars-for-curated-deployments

2. while the doc states "You can include multiple files when composing a child pipeline: " this doesnt seem to be true in connection with artifacts. Eg.

  trigger:
    include:
      - artifact: gitlab-ci.yml
        job: gen2
      - local: /gitlab/ci-tf-main.yml
    strategy: depend

results in:

Undefined error (01EY8M20PB0Z4R26XPSZVNWZS5) "Found errors in your .gitlab-ci.yml:

So, this restriction is either missing from the docs or there is an impl bug here.
