Closes #265

Type

  • Bug fix
  • New feature
  • Documentation only
  • Code refactoring
  • Maintenance/tooling
  • Breaking change

Summary

  • replaces fragile Bash FINALIZE parsing with a structured Node orchestrator;
  • treats npm, GitHub and Git state as typed fail-closed adapter results;
  • adds a read-only preflight and a 56-scenario hermetic interruption/replay matrix.

Changes

File Change
scripts/release-finalize-stable.mjs Adds bounded argv-only adapters and forward-only reconciliation.
scripts/release-finalize-stable.sh Keeps a strict compatibility entrypoint.
scripts/release-finalize-stable.test.mjs Verifies 56 runtime scenarios with no public network or mutation.
scripts/release-policy-contract.test.mjs Enforces Node FINALIZE and PREPARE safety invariants.

Test plan

  • node --check scripts/release-finalize-stable.mjs
  • bash -n scripts/release-finalize-stable.sh
  • Runtime harness: 58/58
  • Release policy contracts: 19/19
  • pnpm format:check
  • pnpm nx affected --target=lint --base=HEAD
  • Ruby Psych validates release-stable.yml
  • git diff --check

Contributor checklist

  • Linked an approved issue
  • Added exactly one type:* label
  • Shell wrapper syntax checked
  • Runtime behavior tested hermetically
  • Documentation impact reviewed
  • Conventional commit format
  • No Co-Authored-By trailers

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a release finalization workflow that verifies repository state, package versions, tags, and published releases before completion.
    • Supports creating missing release tags and GitHub releases, publishing missing packages, and confirming successful results afterward.
    • Provides preflight output and controlled retries for transient release-service issues.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved release consistency by preventing incomplete or mismatched stable releases from being finalized.
    • Strengthened validation of package metadata, commit references, tags, and release status.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The stable release workflow now delegates to a Node.js finalizer. It validates Git, manifests, npm, tags, and GitHub Releases, supports preflight output and bounded retries, performs verified mutations, and uses hermetic tests for replay and failure scenarios.

Changes

Stable release finalization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Finalizer validation and state inspection
scripts/release-finalize-stable.mjs
Adds bounded subprocess execution, strict JSON and tag parsing, manifest checks, npm inspection, GitHub API state classification, and preflight reporting.
Verified release mutations
scripts/release-finalize-stable.mjs, scripts/release-finalize-stable.sh
Creates and atomically pushes tags, creates and verifies GitHub Releases, publishes missing packages, verifies npm convergence, and keeps the shell entrypoint as a wrapper.
Hermetic runtime and replay coverage
scripts/release-finalize-stable.test.mjs
Replaces shell fakes with Node.js command emulation and a local GitHub server. The suite covers 56 release, retry, failure, replay, parsing, and preflight scenarios.
Release policy and mutation contracts
scripts/release-policy-contract.test.mjs
Validates Node finalizer integration, strict release contracts, action-prefix detection, mutation protections, atomic pushes, and publication ordering.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

A rabbit checks each tag in line

And parses npm’s JSON fine
GitHub answers, clear and bright
Packages hop to states just right
Replay leaves no change behind

Explanation

The reported changes address issue #265. They move orchestration to Node, retain the shell wrapper, parse npm output forms, fail closed on unknown states, validate GitHub releases and annotated tags, verify exact release state, provide read-only preflight behavior, and test zero-mutation replay scenarios.

Inline comments:
In `@scripts/release-finalize-stable.mjs`:
- Line 137: Update the missingTags loop around run and the git tag command to
make local tag creation idempotent: skip creation when the tag already exists,
or force the existing tag to expectedSha before continuing. Preserve the current
annotated tag name, target commit, and message behavior used by the missingTags
replay path.
- Line 150: Update the post-publish convergence verification loop in the states
iteration to use bounded retry/polling when npm reports an absent version, and
only accept the exact terminal state there; keep absent accepted for the
pre-publish inspection phase.
- Around line 57-63: Update npmState to classify an npm E404 from the versions
query as { kind: "absent" } while preserving { kind: "unknown" } for transport,
authentication, rate-limit, and other errors. Capture the rejected run error
around the versions lookup and detect only the E404 condition; also update the
test fake for the versions query to exit nonzero with E404 so this behavior is
exercised.

In `@scripts/release-finalize-stable.test.mjs`:
- Around line 100-101: Run the zero-mutation scenarios for npm-unknown,
GitHub-read-unknown, preflight, tag-failure, manifest-mismatch, and EXPECTED_SHA
in scenario mode "absent" instead of the default "exact". Keep their existing
nonzero exit-status and zero-mutation assertions unchanged so they verify
fail-closed behavior rather than an already-converged state.
- Line 32: Update the push fake in the test harness so it only materializes refs
in s.tags after confirming s.pushExit indicates success, preserving atomic
behavior on failure. Add a test scenario that configures pushExit to fail,
verifies the finalizer tolerates the failed push, then reruns it and asserts the
replay converges to the expected state.

In `@scripts/release-policy-contract.test.mjs`:
- Around line 761-764: Update the release-policy test around setupNodeIndex and
pnpmIndex to require actions/setup-node and pnpm/action-setup references to use
40-character commit SHAs rather than mutable tags or branches, and add or update
the corresponding workflow references to pinned SHAs. Preserve the existing
missing-action validation while enforcing immutable references for both
bootstrap actions.
- Line 525: Update the validation in the release-policy contract test to inspect
the finalizer file independently rather than the concatenated
shell-wrapper/finalizer content, and use that result to select strict validation
regardless of the finalizer’s exact import text. Remove the obsolete shell
fallback contract branch and its checks for legacy constructs such as gh release
view, MAX_NPM_READS, and awk tag parsing.

Enforce immutable references for bootstrap actions.

startsWith(...) accepts mutable tags and branches. The workflows use pnpm/action-setup@v6 and actions/setup-node@v5, and no pinning assertion covers them. Require 40-character commit SHA references in the workflows and policy test.

Not changed in this bugfix. Pinning every bootstrap Action is a repository-wide supply-chain policy change affecting workflows outside this issue. Existing references and policy remain unchanged; this PR only restores stable FINALIZE correctness.

@kattsushi, understood. Immutable GitHub Action pinning is outside the stable FINALIZE correctness scope of this PR.

The security concern remains separate from this bugfix. Would you like a follow-up GitHub issue for the repository-wide action-pinning policy change?
