The merge half of the branching model was still prose, so it drifted per
session. create:finish mirrors create:branch: it asserts the merge-side
preconditions, fast-forwards a stale main (divergence is refused), merges
--no-ff, runs npm run verify, and deletes the branch only when green. The
push stays with create:release so the merge is reviewable first.
Add scripts/precompress.ts, a dependency-free Node 26 tool that writes
.br/.gz/.zst sidecars next to every text asset and keeps the originals, so
static-web-server can serve the variant matching Accept-Encoding and fall
back to the original. The coverage publish step runs it on the copied report.
Wire scripts/*.ts into the toolchain: type-check (tsconfig include), lint and
fix (oxlint paths), knip entry (CI invokes the file rather than importing it),
and a narrow .oxlintrc override allowing node:* imports in Node CLI scripts.
The publish job now opens a Gitea release for the tag, using the
matching Keep-a-Changelog section as the body via scripts/release-notes.sh.
It runs before npm publish so a broken page fails CI without burning an
npm version; npm publish stays the last step.
Uses the first-party gitea-release-action (the older actions/release-action
is deprecated and requires asset files) and contents: write for the run's
automatic token.
Introduce a setup: prefix for one-time clone configuration (mutates the
local environment, never a hook or CI step) with setup as its umbrella
aggregator. Move use:git-commit-message to setup:git-commit-message as
its first member, retiring use: — the undocumented prefix tracked in the
backlog. Update both CONTRIBUTING.md prefix lists, the bare-command
inventory, and the stale use: reference in branch.sh.
`branch` and `release` were bare commands, but bare in this repo means
"how you invoke a tier" or "runs one tool" — neither fits a command that
opens or closes a unit of work. They get their own prefix now, since a
prefix is how this repo records _when_ a script runs.
`create:` because both members genuinely create something (a branch, a
release) and it is a plain verb rather than VCS slang. No bare `create`
aggregator: running "all the workflows" describes nothing anyone wants,
and `publish:*` already precedents a prefix without one.
The rule "reuse an existing prefix, never invent one" now says what it
actually means: a new prefix is allowed when the scripts belong in the
pipeline, provided it enters both lists in the same commit as its first
member. That is the lesson from `use:`, which is referenced by prose yet
in none of the lists — already tracked in backlog.tasks.
The bare-command sentence shrinks to `build`, `clean`, `verify`.
The branching model assumed a clean, current `main` and a green baseline
before any edit, but both were prose, and prose nobody checks silently
becomes a suggestion. `npm run branch -- <prefix>/<desc>` asserts the
precondition and only then creates the branch, so a later failure is
attributable to the change that caused it.
Checks run cheap-first (`--porcelain` deliberately catches untracked
files, which would otherwise ride onto the new branch) and the suite
runs last, so an ineligible tree never pays for it. `main`'s remote is
derived from its upstream rather than hardcoded: this repo has both
`origin` and `origin_https`, and `main` tracks the latter, so a
`git fetch origin main` currency check would compare against a ref that
is never updated here. The baseline runs after switching to `main`, so a
red `main` restores the starting branch instead of stranding the caller
on it.
The prefix stays a judgment call: the script validates it against the
documented vocabulary instead of inferring it.
Prose kept as index only — AGENTS.md points agents at the command from
the task workflow, CONTRIBUTING.md owns the model and the bare-script
tier (dropping its stale hardcoded count of "two" conveniences).
Release front-door: pubv runs preflight + the interactive semver
heuristic and graduates CHANGELOG.md [Unreleased] -> dated; npm version
syncs package.json + lockfile; git commit --amend folds them into
pubv's single release commit; the tag is created AFTER the amend so it
marks the exact commit on main that gets published; then push. Tags are
v-less (--tag-prefix=none) to match the changelog compare refs.
@runwisp/pubv added as a devDependency. The short "how we got here /
what was rejected" note lives as a comment atop the script; the docs/
exploration was removed as too much to read.
