Did you mean to file a bug report against *simple-cdd* instead of
debian-cd? The latter is used to build images, the former is what's
doing the local mirroring. And that's the one with code (and changelog
entry) with that mandatory installer-i386 thing that's failing:
debian/changelog:
simple-cdd (0.6.9) unstable; urgency=medium
…
* Add installer-i386 to the local mirror for amd64 builds
…

build-simple-cdd:
# For amd64 builds: debian-cd (>= 3.1.36) needs the i386 installer images,
# cf. https://salsa.debian.org/images-team/debian-cd/-/commit/8a8e6238.
if a == "amd64" and "i386" not in self.env.get("ARCHES"):
self.env.append("checksum_files",
os.path.join("dists", self.env.format("{DI_CODENAME}/main/installer-{a}/{di_release}/images/{checksum_file_type}", a="i386")))
You seem to have miscopied the version number (debian-cd 3.1.6 doesn't
say anything about i386, while 3.1.36 indeed mentions “Add 32-bit EFI
binaries to all amd64 images too, so we no longer need a multi-arch
image for Bay Trail etc.”).
That's been made configurable via DISABLE_UEFI_32 in debian-cd 3.2.0
(see #1031424) and I'm pretty sure current debian-cd is perfectly able
to build installation images, so I'm not seeing any “grave” bug in it.
(Perhaps a wishlist item about switching the default or something?)
Just in case that's useful, here's the difference between bookworm and
trixie found in setup.git (where configuration is recorded):

Looping in simple-cdd people and Arnaud specifically.
