Sign and verify macOS and Windows updates using dedicated native-runner CI scripts, then publish platform-correct metadata for Lantern Cloud’s update service. This also removes the obsolete legacy appcast publisher, restores feed verification, and preserves valid releases when metadata publishing fails.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added signed update support for macOS and Windows installers.
    • Release metadata now includes platform signatures and Sparkle version information.
    • Added desktop auto-update smoke testing and reusable update fixtures for macOS and Windows.
    • Windows builds now include the public key required to verify updates and receive the application build version.
    • Added configurable profile builds and update-test options.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved signature validation, update verification, and shutdown handling before Windows updates.
  • Chores

    • Removed the legacy appcast generation process and unused dependency.

Walkthrough

The update pipeline now signs macOS and Windows installers, publishes Sparkle metadata with pre-generated signatures and versions, builds update fixtures, and runs platform auto-update smoke tests.

Changes

Desktop auto-update pipeline

Layer / File(s) Summary
Updater runtime integration
lib/core/updater/*, windows/runner/Runner.rc, pubspec.yaml, test/core/updater/updater_test.dart
The updater supports injected dependencies, Windows build-version registration, and guarded shutdown callbacks.
Platform signing and metadata publishing
.github/scripts/sign_*, .github/workflows/build-*, .github/workflows/release.yml, scripts/ci/generate_update_metadata*, scripts/ci/verify_update_service*
Build workflows generate verified signatures. Release metadata and update-service verification use Sparkle versions and EdDSA signatures.
Fixture resolution and verification
scripts/ci/resolve_desktop_update_target*, scripts/ci/verify_fixture_update_artifacts.py
Fixture tooling validates appcasts, resolves target metadata, rewrites fixture versions, and verifies signed artifacts.
Profile fixture builds and workflow orchestration

Profile targets and reusable workflows build signed fixtures, package artifacts, and route auto-update runs.
Desktop smoke execution
.github/scripts/*auto_update*, .github/scripts/macos_sparkle_handoff.applescript, integration_test/auto_update/*, integration_test/utils/app_robot.dart, test_driver/integration_test.dart
Platform scripts and Flutter integration helpers trigger updates, drive native update UI, verify relaunches, and collect diagnostics.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to 4433d

The release pipeline currently emits Windows update signatures and metadata using EdDSA while the shipped verifier accepts only DSA, so Windows users may be unable to validate and install updates. The smoke-test jobs also retain bounded reliability and cleanup risks, so the PR is not merge-ready until the signing mismatch is corrected and the remaining CI risks are addressed or explicitly accepted.

Pull request overview

Restores end-to-end signing and verification for desktop auto-updates by moving update signing to native macOS/Windows runners, publishing platform-correct metadata for Lantern Cloud’s update service, and removing the legacy GitHub-release appcast publisher.

Changes:

  • Add native CI signing scripts for macOS (Sparkle EdDSA) and Windows (WinSparkle DSA), plus embed the Windows public key for client-side verification.
  • Rework update metadata generation to consume native-produced signature sidecars and validate signature formatting before publishing.
  • Update update-service verification to validate macOS edSignature vs Windows dsaSignature, and plumb “Sparkle build number” through CI/workflows.

Use valid EdDSA signature fixtures.

This test uses "macos-signature" and "windows-signature" from UpdateServiceHandler.beta_enclosures. These values are not Base64 encodings of 64-byte EdDSA signatures.

Use a valid 64-byte Base64 fixture for both enclosures. The test must verify the signature-validation path, not only a non-empty attribute.

Honor skip_signing for update signatures.

When skip_signing is true, this condition still runs sign_windows_update.ps1. The job then either fails because the signing key is absent or emits an update signature despite the requested unsigned build. Add && !inputs.skip_signing to both the signing and signature-upload conditions.

Use DSA signing for the shipped Windows updater.

This step supplies SPARKLE_ED_PRIVATE_KEY to the Windows update-signing path. The bundled WinSparkle 0.8.1 cannot verify EdDSA signatures. Windows clients will reject updates that publish only this signature. Generate and publish a sparkle:dsaSignature with the DSA key until the bundled WinSparkle runtime is upgraded.

Based on learnings: auto_updater_windows bundles WinSparkle 0.8.1, which does not support EdDSA; keep the DSA signing and verification flow until a follow-up upgrade.

Press the Sparkle install button once, then only wait for exit.

installUntilExit searches for the install button on every 0.5-second poll and presses it each time it is found. Sparkle normally closes the prompt on the first press, so the extra presses do not happen. If the window lingers, or if a second dialog reuses one of the names in installButtonNames, the loop presses repeatedly and can disturb the install flow.

Track whether a press already happened and skip further presses.

In @.github/workflows/app-smoke-tests.yml:
- Around line 151-158: The macos-auto-update job’s gate currently allows
platforms == 'all' despite the comment and explicit-only policy. Update the if
condition for macos-auto-update to require inputs.platforms == 'macos',
preserving the existing auto-update test check and validate-inputs dependency.

In `@Makefile`:
- Line 534: Declare build-macos-release, copy-lanternd-profile, and
copy-lanternd-profile-arm64 in the Makefile’s .PHONY declarations so these
non-file targets always execute even when same-named files or directories exist.
- Line 805: Update the staging copy command to use a single path separator when
combining WINDOWS_PROFILE_DIR with the wildcard, using the existing Windows path
variables and copy flow.

Trap INT and TERM so a canceled job still cleans the self-hosted runner.

The script traps EXIT only. Bash does not run the EXIT trap when the default SIGTERM handler kills the shell. GitHub Actions sends SIGTERM on cancellation and on step timeout. The fixture app then stays in /Applications/Lantern.app, and Lantern processes keep running on the persistent self-hosted runner. The next run recovers this at Line 217, so the effect is limited to runner state between runs.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Guard against a $null automation Name in Get-Window and Get-Button.

Get-Window enumerates every top-level window on the runner desktop, not only Lantern windows. Set-StrictMode -Version Latest plus $ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop' makes a method call on a $null value a terminating error. If any window or button exposes a $null Name, Line 152 ($name.StartsWith(...)) or Line 165 ($button.Current.Name.Replace(...)) throws and aborts the whole smoke from inside a poll loop.

Coerce the name to a string before the method call.

Restrict id-token: write to jobs that use OIDC.

The workflow-level permission also applies to prepare and assemble. Those jobs only use repository, artifact, local-script, and GitHub-token operations. Remove the workflow-level id-token: write. Keep it only on the build jobs that require federation.
