Summary

  • start the full production release on each canonical master push
  • build and test release artifacts on Blacksmith
  • publish only the verified package artifact from a GitHub-hosted OIDC job
  • verify npm integrity and SLSA provenance before release finalization
  • preserve fork deployments without npm publication
  • release version 0.2.2

Verification

  • pnpm check
  • pnpm semark:check
  • pnpm build
  • Wrangler production dry-run
  • production dependency audit
  • actionlint with Blacksmith and GitHub queue schema exemptions
  • repeat package build and byte comparison
  • package installation test in a clean consumer
  • npm 12.0.2 publish dry-run

Rollout

The npm package name is empty. npm requires one interactive publication before it permits a trusted publisher. Publish version 0.2.1 from its signed tag, configure the release.yml trusted publisher, and then merge this pull request.

Release changes

  • Release version 0.2.2.
  • Start production releases on canonical master pushes.
  • Build and test artifacts on Blacksmith.
  • Publish only verified artifacts through npm Trusted Publishing.
  • Verify npm integrity and SLSA provenance.
  • Keep fork deployments without npm publication.
  • Update release operations documentation and workflow validation.

Required setup

  1. Publish version 0.2.1 from its signed tag.
  2. Configure the release.yml trusted publisher.
  3. Complete the initial npm package publication.

Verification

  • Run checks, builds, tests, and dependency audits.
  • Run the Wrangler production dry run.
  • Run actionlint and compare repeated package builds.
  • Install the package in a clean consumer.
  • Run the npm publish dry run.

Publish only the immutable Blacksmith artifact from a minimal GitHub-hosted job. Verify package bytes and npm provenance before signed release finalization.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The release process now starts on direct master pushes. It builds deterministic artifacts on Blacksmith, publishes npm packages through GitHub OIDC, validates provenance, and finalizes the GitHub release. Package versions and release documentation now target version 0.2.2.

Changes

Release pipeline

Layer / File(s) Summary
Release entry and boundary validation
.github/workflows/ci.yml, .github/workflows/release.yml, AGENTS.md, scripts/check-bootstrap-boundary.mjs
CI runs on pull requests. Releases run on untagged master pushes. Bootstrap checks enforce Blacksmith runners and npm Trusted Publishing settings.
Artifact preparation and version alignment
.github/workflows/release.yml, package.json, apps/*/package.json, packages/*/package.json, packages/client/README.md
The workflow validates the release commit, runs build checks, creates client and CLI artifacts, and records checksums and metadata. Package versions and the client example change to 0.2.2.
Release-state verification and npm publication
.github/workflows/release.yml
The workflow verifies npm package bytes and SLSA provenance, then publishes the prepared package through npm Trusted Publishing.
Attestation and release finalization
.github/workflows/release.yml, docs/OPERATIONS.md
Finalization uses uploaded artifacts for attestation and GitHub Release assets. Operations documentation describes Blacksmith builds, provenance checks, Trusted Publishing, and fork behavior.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔴 Critical · up to b02e5

The release workflow currently looks for downloaded artifacts in the wrong directory, so canonical releases fail before npm publication and GitHub Release finalization. The npm publication command also passes a derived path unsafely through the shell, creating a bounded but externally visible publication risk; merge should be blocked until these issues are fixed.

Pass the package path through env before invoking npm.

pnpm pack requires a non-empty version but does not enforce shell-safe characters. A crafted version can therefore reach the generated publish script and inject shell syntax despite the surrounding quotes. Use "$PACKAGE_PATH" instead.
