From 770cb40775ed1084c7b4a1ad203dd1ac34fc17b0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Gasperini <163041857+TheStreamCode@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Sat, 31 Oct 2026 15:40:53 +0100 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] fix(workflow): harden validation and release automation - Exclude the run log from revision fingerprints and record changed source artifacts. - Reject empty option values, invalid init states, dangling reparse points, blank reasons, and incomplete gate blocks. - Fix stale-final marking, state-write rollback, exit classification, status aliases, and init guidance. - Run the full check suite, official validator, and publish dry-run in the tag release workflow. - Require release, docs, Dependabot, and lint configuration files in repository validation. - Align templates, references, README, evaluations, and changelog with the hardened contract. --- .github/workflows/release.yml | 54 ++++- CHANGELOG.md | 20 +- README.md | 30 ++- RELEASING.md | 10 +- evals/manifest.json | 30 ++- scripts/benchmark.mjs | 17 ++ scripts/validate-repo.mjs | 9 + skills/agentic-rd-skill/SKILL.md | 6 +- .../agentic-rd-skill/assets/cross-review.md | 2 + skills/agentic-rd-skill/assets/run-log.md | 2 + .../references/example-run.md | 10 +- .../agentic-rd-skill/references/workflow.md | 16 +- skills/agentic-rd-skill/scripts/rd.mjs | 132 +++++++++-- tests/package.test.mjs | 36 +++ tests/rd-cli.test.mjs | 212 ++++++++++++++++++ 15 files changed, 525 insertions(+), 61 deletions(-) diff --git a/.github/workflows/release.yml b/.github/workflows/release.yml index 8d35aee..9934f8b 100644 --- a/.github/workflows/release.yml +++ b/.github/workflows/release.yml @@ -6,30 +6,68 @@ on: - 'v*' permissions: - contents: write + contents: read jobs: - github-release: + verify: + name: Verify release candidate runs-on: ubuntu-latest timeout-minutes: 20 steps: - - uses: actions/checkout@3d3c42e5aac5ba805825da76410c181273ba90b1 # v7.0.1 + - name: Checkout + uses: actions/checkout@3d3c42e5aac5ba805825da76410c181273ba90b1 # v7 + with: + fetch-depth: 0 + persist-credentials: false - name: Set up Node.js uses: actions/setup-node@949feb2413d6458794dcd2491c4babbbce0c15c1 # v7.1.0 with: node-version: '22' - cache: npm - name: Verify tag matches package version run: node -e "const version=require('./package.json').version;

Reapproval requires a changed upstream-source-artifact fingerprint or an explicit no-change disposition in `--reason`; the run log is not part of the fingerprint. The resolved revision record lists the changed source artifacts, or an empty list for a no-change disposition. `Blocked` requires the filled stage-gate artifact, a non-blank reason, and `--blockers` of at least 1.
