feat: automate release evidence reuse and parallelize CI - #339
Release Step 2 required manual draft creation and repeated selection of release context. This PR automatically recovers the original acquisition owner and authenticated tag-push draft receipt, reuses the retained evidence, and overlaps independent CI validation.
Adopt research-repo-tools at the authorized exact development revision cd8594f658b5bf3ade063a685834565cc62e0cb3 across the lock and isolated invocations.
Align the release guide and canonical commands around exact-commit evidence review before tag creation, automatic draft preparation, retained benchmark attachment, explicit GitHub publication and Cargo dispatch. Keep manual recovery inputs and document Cargo-specific differences.
Bind staging to the originally prepared draft and require an existing reviewed acceptance before tagging, staging or publication. Preserve original run/attempt, artifact, release and asset identities across retries.
Run fast policy checks first, then overlap the independent Rust and Python lanes. Preserve every validator and required check name, provide just --jobs 1 ci as the serial fallback, and cache managed Cargo compilation separately from verified tool installations.
Local validation passed in both modes: just --jobs 1 ci (905.35 s) and just ci (736.74 s), each including 438 Python tests, 1,143 Rust tests, default/exact doctests, benchmark compilation, examples and the full static/documentation checks. Windows-targeted Python type checking, the exact lock check, and the final documentation checks also passed. Astra's source review found no remaining trust-boundary blocker.
The two runs had different compilation-cache states, so these timings do not establish an isolated parallelism or cache speedup. The command comparison, validator ownership, native baseline and measured local results are recorded in the integration report.
This PR completes the implementation scope of #326, #330 and #338. #326's six prerequisites (#320 through #325) are closed, and #335 merged with successful Linux/macOS/Windows, Cargo packaging and static checks. The remaining common-command/guide and automatic-draft work is delivered here. Release validation and readiness belong to #333, including final native validation, authenticated hosted retained-evidence handoff, matched cold/warm timings and published-tooling adoption. Required PR checks and reviews still gate merge.
- Discover the original acquisition owner and authenticated tag-push draft
receipt automatically while retaining explicit recovery inputs.
- Align release commands and documentation around pre-tag evidence review,
automatic draft preparation, and retained-evidence publication dispatch.
- Require an existing reviewed acceptance before tagging, staging, or
publishing, and preserve exact release and artifact identities on retries.
- Overlap independent Rust and Python validation after policy checks, retain
a serial fallback, and cache managed Cargo compilation separately from
verified tool installations.
- Adopt research-repo-tools at the authorized cd8594f development revision.

Walkthrough
The PR updates CI validation lanes and managed Cargo caching. It adds retained release-owner and acceptance checks, tag-triggered draft preparation, and benchmark and publication dispatch commands. Release guidance, workflow tests, and tooling references are updated to describe these changes.
Changes: Validation and cache wiring
Layer / File(s)
Summary
CI lanes and managed Cargo cache .github/actions/setup-tools/action.yml, justfile, tests/tooling/test_validation_graph.py, CONTRIBUTING.md, semgrep.yaml, .github/workflows/zizmor.yml
The CI recipe separates policy checks from Rust and Python lanes. The setup action caches managed Cargo build output, and tests check lane sequencing, failure propagation, cache configuration, and authenticated release lookup.
Validation records and shared tooling pin pyproject.toml, .github/workflows/ci.yml, .github/workflows/release-benchmarks.yml, tests/tooling/*, tooling/README.md, docs/dev/release-flow-integration.md
The shared tooling revision is updated in its declarations and related tests. The tooling README and integration record describe the validation graph, cache scope, and observed validation results.
Release preparation and dispatch
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Retained owner, acceptance, and transfer tooling/release_candidate.py, tests/tooling/test_release_context.py, tests/tooling/test_candidate_transfer.py, tests/tooling/test_performance_workflow.py
The release candidate tooling retains owner selection and checks existing acceptance and transfer data. Tests cover owner recovery, receipt verification, staging mismatches, and dispatch failure boundaries.
Tag verification and draft preparation .github/workflows/prepare-release.yml, tooling/draft-receipt.toml, tests/tooling/test_release_flow.py, docs/code_organization.md
The tag-push workflow verifies the source and handoff before preparing a draft. The workflow declaration and tests cover handoff validation, retained receipts, and draft identity.
Release recipes add publication and final-version checks, benchmark dispatch, and reviewed upload. Workflow expectations and release instructions describe the revised commands and recovery behavior.

acgetchell/la-stack#333 — The PR adds tag-triggered draft preparation and evidence-reuse commands listed in the release boundary; the issue’s published-package adoption and final release-validation work remain outside this PR.
Possibly related PRs
acgetchell/la-stack#334 — Both PRs use the CI graph and tooling pin; this PR places exact benchmark validation in the Rust lane.
acgetchell/la-stack#335 — Both PRs change candidate-transfer handling and staging, including the stage interface.
acgetchell/la-stack#300 — Both PRs connect publication checks to CI evidence and release publication commands.
Routine release preparation and dispatch have no identified merge-blocking issue. An invalid manual recovery target can still complicate a staging retry.

The title "feat: automate release evidence reuse and parallelize CI" matches the two main themes of the changeset. The release side covers automatic draft preparation from retained evidence, owner-record-based verification, and reviewed-acceptance binding for staging. The CI side covers splitting the justfile ci target into shared policy checks and parallel Rust and Python lanes. The title is specific, concise, and free of file lists or vague terms. It does not name the managed Cargo cache, the pinned tooling revision, or the zizmor timeout change, but those are secondary to the main changes.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
No change shown by the summary lacks a connection to #326, #330 or #338. This assessment uses the whole-PR summary. The full diff was not read.
[#330] Release flow: docs/RELEASING.md, tooling/release_candidate.py, prepare-release.yml, draft-receipt.toml, release-benchmarks.yml, tooling/README.md, docs/BENCHMARKING.md and docs/code_organization.md. These implement the evidence-reuse flow and its safeguards.
[#338] Validation integration: justfile (_ci-policy, _ci-rust, _ci-execution, ci), ci.yml, setup-tools action, CONTRIBUTING.md and the integration record. These implement the lanes, serial fallback and managed cache.
[#338] Publish-check: ci.yml runs publish-check in place of release-package. The default and exact-feature Cargo dry-runs are part of this check. This is validation wiring for the release-flow and CI policy work.
[#338] zizmor.yml timeout increase from 30 to 45 minutes. The comment records a cold managed-tool setup of 29m23s. This supports the cold managed setup from the Cargo cache work.
[#330] semgrep.yaml rule zizmor-managed-execution now also matches run steps with shell bash or sh. This strengthens the workflow execution checks for the new release workflow steps and the trust safeguards that #330 requires.
Supporting tests and fixtures: test_candidate_transfer.py, test_justfile_discoverability.py, test_performance_workflow.py, test_release_context.py, test_release_flow.py, test_release_publishing.py, test_toolchain_integration.py and test_validation_graph.py. These verify the changed behavior. The revision string updates follow the pin change.
pyproject.toml and uv.lock: the pin change is the tooling change that #338 authorizes. uv.lock is excluded from review by ignored_files (rule !**/*.lock). Its content was not assessed.
No change in the summary alters scientific workloads, benchmark campaigns, deployment, or tag and publication execution outside the release-flow contracts.
Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Directly linked active issues: #326, #330 and #338. This assessment uses the whole-PR summary, the current issue text and the PR description. No repository inspection was run.
The previous FAIL is superseded. The current #338 text authorizes exact development revision cd8594f658b5bf3ade063a685834565cc62e0cb3 for PR #339. It states that a development pin is not publication evidence. Published-package adoption belongs to #333. The summary shows this revision in pyproject.toml, ci.yml, release-benchmarks.yml, the isolated uvx invocations and test fixtures.
Supported by the summary:
[#330] Guide and integration record: docs/RELEASING.md, tooling/README.md and docs/dev/release-flow-integration.md record the revision and the command comparison.
[#330] Canonical dispatch: justfile target release-benchmarks tag. tests/tooling/test_release_flow.py covers argument forwarding, tag validation and dispatch failures.
[#330] Tag-triggered draft preparation: prepare-release.yml (verify and prepare jobs), tooling/draft-receipt.toml, and tooling/release_candidate.py (verify_existing, preparation_target, stage with prepared_target). Tests in test_release_context.py and test_release_flow.py cover evidence and identity rejection.
[#330] Publication safeguards: reviewed acceptance is required before tagging, staging and publication. test_release_context.py covers missing review.
[#338] Ordering: _ci-policy runs first. _ci-rust and test-python run through _ci-execution. ci depends on these lanes. just --jobs 1 ci is the serial fallback. test_validation_graph.py covers serial and parallel execution and failure propagation.
[#338] Validator and required-check names: retained in _ci-policy and _ci-rust.
[#338] Managed Cargo cache: setup-tools action caches ${{ runner.temp }}/rrt-cargo-build, keyed by OS, architecture and toolchain/tool declaration hashes. It sets RESEARCH_REPO_TOOLS_CARGO_BUILD_HOME. Release jobs disable the cache. test_validation_graph.py covers these settings.
[#326] Release validation, published-tooling adoption and matched cold/warm timings belong to #333. They are not required by this PR.
Unresolved:
[#338] Acceptance requires the authorized revision to be used consistently in the manifest, lock and isolated invocations. uv.lock is excluded from review by ignored_files (rule !**/*.lock). Lock consistency cannot be read. The PR description states that the exact lock check passed. This review does not treat that statement as independent evidence.
Resolution
Provide reviewable evidence that uv.lock records research-repo-tools at commit cd8594f658b5bf3ade063a685834565cc62e0cb3 at head 261bee3. The evidence must come from a source outside the excluded path, such as the output of the exact lock check run at that head. Re-run this assessment after that evidence is available.

- Around line 930-931: Update the release-benchmarks description to say it uses
the transfer from the retained owner record by default and that
CANDIDATE_TRANSFER_FILE is an optional recovery override. Preserve the existing
statement that dispatch returns without waiting or acquiring data.

Failed pre-merge checks:
- Linked Issues check:
Pin pyproject.toml, uv.lock, the isolated uvx invocations and workflow pins to a
published research-repo-tools release. That release must contain the validation
parallelism and Cargo-cache changes from research-repo-tools PR #207 (v0.2.7
target). Verify that the release is published before pinning. Update the
integration record to match the new revision and rerun the lock check. If
maintainers accept development-revision adoption before publication, amend the
#338 acceptance criteria in the issue first. This PR cannot satisfy the current
text.
