I think the problem here is the guard condition on the Exec['build_search_index'] resource in role::cirrussearch.

exec { 'build_search_index':
    # lint:ignore:80chars
    command => '/usr/local/bin/foreachwiki extensions/CirrusSearch/maintenance/updateSearchIndexConfig.php --startOver && /usr/local/bin/foreachwiki extensions/CirrusSearch/maintenance/forceSearchIndex.php',
    onlyif  => '/usr/local/bin/mwscript extensions/CirrusSearch/maintenance/cirrusNeedsToBeBuilt.php --quiet',
    # lint:endignore
    user    => 'www-data',
    require => [
        Class['::mediawiki::multiwiki'],
        Mediawiki::Extension['CirrusSearch'],
        Exec['update_all_databases'],
    ]
}

I think the onlyif there will only check the default wiki, so if it has an index then nothing will be reindexed.
