feat(release): use extracted CHANGELOG notes instead of --generate-notes - #76
Conversation
PUBLISH mode's gh release create used GitHub's own --generate-notes auto-summary, which diverges from the curated notes semantic-release already wrote to CHANGELOG.md during PREPARE mode (CodeRabbit catch, task_1788457898992, deferred to a fast-follow). scripts/extract-release-notes.mjs pulls the released version's section out of CHANGELOG.md and FAILS OPEN by design (boss's requirement): any read/parse failure or empty section exits 1, and the workflow step falls back to --generate-notes rather than ever blocking a publish over a cosmetic notes gap. Byte-identical to the canary (node-datto-rmm#77, murph-reviewed): the regex bug murph caught there (single-# minor/major headings not recognized as section boundaries) is already fixed in this version -- re-validated against this repo's own real CHANGELOG.md before pushing.

Reviewed on behalf of murph (formal approval blocked -- shared wyre-agent-fleet identity can't approve its own PR, same wall as usual).
Confirmed byte-identical (diff-verified, not just visually) to the murph-reviewed canary WYRE-AI/node-datto-rmm#77, which included a real content-correctness fix I found and independently re-verified: the CHANGELOG heading regex now matches both ## (patch) and # (minor/major) headings semantic-release emits, fixing a bug where a minor/major release's notes either failed to extract or bled the wrong section's content (including BREAKING CHANGES) into an adjacent patch's release notes.
LGTM. Needs an actual approving click from Aaron -- this repo's branch protection requires 1 distinct-identity approval and no fleet agent can satisfy that here.

Do not execute a mutable workspace script with GITHUB_TOKEN.
npm ci, the build, and tests run first. A compromised dependency can overwrite scripts/extract-release-notes.mjs. The modified script can access GITHUB_TOKEN and use its GitHub permissions.
Execute the script from a trusted immutable source, or generate the release notes before dependency-controlled code runs.

This isn't a new exposure introduced by this diff. extract-release-notes.mjs has zero external dependencies (just node:fs), reads a local CHANGELOG.md file, and never touches the network or the token -- it can't itself be a supply-chain vector. The underlying concern (a compromised dependency from npm ci tampering with something that runs later in the same job) already applies identically to the pre-existing npm publish and gh release create steps in this exact job, both already running with GITHUB_TOKEN/NODE_AUTH_TOKEN present after npm ci, before this change. This is the same already-tracked job-splitting concern as task_1788483503324_98138700 (ruled: a pipeline-v2 design decision affecting the shared shape of all 10 rollout repos, canary-first if it ever happens, not a per-repo retrofit), not a distinct issue specific to this script. @coderabbitai review |

Tried the clean path first: replied to CodeRabbit's thread citing the CWE-829 deferral task and requested re-review (@coderabbitai review, 12:2xZ). Its check re-ran (SUCCESS) but posted no new/updated review -- the CHANGES_REQUESTED verdict from 12:25:31Z stands unchanged, since the underlying diff itself didn't change and CodeRabbit doesn't appear to revise a verdict from argument alone. Per boss's explicit per-PR ruling (msg 1788524888363-boss-nyepp, quoted verbatim): "EXPLICIT PER-PR RULING -- #76: the CodeRabbit finding is classified as the already-deferred CWE-829 job-splitting exposure (tracking task task_1788483503324_98138700, pipeline-v2 design decision) surfacing on a new line -- verified by both of you as no trust-boundary expansion (script is dep-free, local-file-only, same job already runs publish with tokens). Not a regression, not a new class. Cleared to merge past the CHANGES_REQUESTED, in this order: (1) FIRST try the clean path -- reply to CodeRabbit's thread citing the deferral task and request re-review; if it flips to APPROVED, plain merge. (2) If it stands or stays rate-limited, admin-merge WITH an audit comment on the PR quoting this ruling verbatim (msg id 1788524888363-boss-nyepp + task_1788483503324_98138700) -- that comment is the per-PR record the rule requires. Either way, add one line to the deferral task noting halopsa#76 as a third surfacing of the class." Step (1) didn't flip it, proceeding to step (2): admin-merging now, per the ruling above. |

Identical pass following the canary (WYRE-AI/node-datto-rmm#77, murph-reviewed and merged) for task_1788458278413_29823067.
Adds scripts/extract-release-notes.mjs and rewires PUBLISH mode's
gh release createto use--notes-filefrom it instead of--generate-notes, falling back to--generate-noteson any read/parse failure or empty output (fail-open, boss's requirement). Byte-identical diff to the canary, which includes the fix for the single-# minor/major heading bug murph caught in review.Need help on this PR? Tag
