Summary

Follow-up to lane E (#5388). That PR moved npm publication behind packaging, but verification still lived in attach-release — after publication, and skipped on dry-run. The guarantee was "packaging finished before publish"; the guarantee a release needs is "everything about to be published was verified valid before publish". This PR closes that gap and adds a recovery path for partial publication. Two ordered commits:

  1. The pre-publication verifier (desktop/scripts/verify-release-assets.ts). It derives the expected platform file set from the release workflow's own packaging matrices and the producer tables — scripts/standalone-targets.ts (new shared module the builder and verifier both use; the workflow matrix must equal it), bundlesByTarget and platformFiles — then verifies: every recorded checksum against the bytes on disk, bound to its own payload in the producers' exact format; every updater signature cryptographically against the minisign public key pinned in tauri.conf.json (pure Ed25519 "Ed" mode, the form the Tauri bundler emits; the prehashed "ED" mode fails loudly); the updater manifest generated and parsed back against the files it names, with each manifest signature compared exactly to its verified sidecar; and finally that the bundle contains nothing beyond the expected set, because attach-release uploads dist/release/* verbatim. Signatures are required only for the assets the updater actually signs (app.tar.gz, MSI, AppImage) — the DMG and deb are never signed.

  2. The verify-release job and the resumable publish path. The job downloads the packaged artifacts, runs the verifier, and publishes the verified bundle plus a machine-readable receipt. publish now needs verify-release; attach-release downloads the verified bundle and refuses to upload unless the receipt names this run's version and commit. Checksum verification and latest.json generation moved out of attach-release into verify-release, so they now run on dry-run too — a dry run proves the same chain a real release relies on. Because npm and GitHub cannot publish atomically, a run that acknowledged npm publication and failed afterwards gets an explicit recovery path: the resume-after-npm-publish dispatch input (an operator attestation). On resume, the preflight requires the version to already exist on npm and refuses dry-run, the publish step skips npm publish while still emitting the receipt downstream steps gate on, the version-line gate lets the run past a tag it created itself, and release creation reuses an existing release — reuse outside resume remains a hard error. A successful publish records these instructions in the job summary at the moment they matter.

Security review: release automation changed, so this PR carries the explicit security review MAINTAINERS.md requires. The parts stay separable for a reviewer: no permissions blocks change (verify-release is read-only; publication jobs keep exactly their previous permissions), no secrets are added, renamed, or re-scoped (the updater key's presence only toggles manifest generation, as before), commit 1 is verification logic with unit tests, and commit 2 is ordering plus the recovery input. The recovery input can never run npm publish — it only skips it — and every non-resume path keeps its previous hard failures.

No GUI change; no screenshot required.

Verification

Local execution checks: NOT RUN (lane policy — no local bun test, bun run test, bun run test:changed, bun run typecheck, builds, installs, or ocx execution; hosted CI at the exact head SHA is the gate and is reported separately).

Static verification performed instead:

  • Expected-red reasoning, by source extraction (not execution): against the pre-change tree, the contract assertions fail because verify-release does not exist (needs/ordering tests), attach-release still contains shasum and updater-manifest.ts steps (absence test), the receipt check does not precede gh release upload (ordering test), and publish.needs is the old packaging pair. The verifier's unit tests fail against their corresponding defects by construction: a tampered payload changes the digest, a foreign key id or a tampered signature fails Ed25519 verification against the fixture keypair, a foo.sha256 naming bar violates the binding rule, a stray file violates the exact-set rule, and a missing MSI violates the expected-set rule.
  • Independent subagent audit (gpt-5.6-sol, read-only static review, same execution prohibition): eight blockers found and all folded before commit — a missing RELEASE_VERSION env that would have failed the publish step under set -u after npm publish succeeded; the version-line gate blocking resume after tag creation; signatures wrongly required for the unsigned DMG and deb; a fixture key-id collision that made one test vacuously red; extras not rejected; checksum companions not bound to their payloads; manifest signatures not compared to sidecars; and the standalone expectation not derived from the builder's target set. Its four concerns are also folded: the recovery input is now an explicit operator attestation, release reuse is resume-gated, the full-flow fixture is an independent hand-written oracle, and the contract test asserts step environments and the version-line resume branch directly.
  • End-to-end path walk (read-only): package jobs upload standalone-*/desktop-*; verify-release downloads both flattened into dist/release, verifies, and uploads verified-release + release-verification-receipt; attach-release downloads exactly those two, checks the receipt's version and commit, then uploads dist/release/*. YAML parses cleanly (ruby/psych): validate-dispatch → package-* → verify-release → publish → attach-release, no cycles, no inputs.* interpolation inside any run: block.
  • House-rule checks (static): no new test files (nothing to register in the layout maps); the only touched file covered by tests/fixtures/file-size-baseline.json is tests/ci-workflows/ci-workflows.test.ts at 5615/5628; git merge-tree --write-tree origin/dev HEAD clean; no host names, IPs, SSH accounts, or absolute user paths in added lines; structure/desktop-shell.md updated to describe the verification-first flow.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup. (Ten files: the workflow, the verifier and its shared module, the two producer-script exports, the structure doc, and the tests.)
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed. (structure/desktop-shell.md now describes the pre-publication verification and the receipt gate; workflow comments carry the recovery runbook.)
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults. (Release automation changed with no permission or secret-scope change; resume can never republish; non-resume paths keep their hard failures; see the security-review note above.)

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The release pipeline now verifies packaged assets before publication, uploads only verified artifacts, centralizes standalone target metadata, and supports controlled resume after acknowledged npm publication.

Changes

Release asset contracts and verification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared release target metadata
scripts/standalone-targets.ts, scripts/build-standalone.ts, desktop/scripts/collect-release-assets.ts, desktop/scripts/updater-manifest.ts
Standalone targets, executable names, archive names, bundle definitions, and updater platform mappings are centralized or exported.
Pre-publication asset verification
desktop/scripts/verify-release-assets.ts
The verifier derives expected assets from workflow matrices, validates checksums and Ed25519 minisign signatures, re-parses manifests, rejects unexpected files, and writes a version-and-commit receipt.

Release workflow and recovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Verified publication pipeline
.github/workflows/release.yml, structure/desktop-shell.md
A new verify-release job runs before publication. publish and attach-release consume its verified bundle and receipt. The documentation describes the new ordering.
Resume after npm publication
.github/workflows/release.yml
The resume-after-npm-publish input permits recovery only when preflight confirms the package and release state. Resume mode skips npm republishing and can reuse an existing GitHub release at the requested commit.

Validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Release verification and workflow contracts
tests/ci-workflows/release-desktop-scripts.test.ts, tests/ci-workflows/release-pipeline-contract.test.ts, tests/ci-workflows/ci-workflows.test.ts, tests/gui/standalone-build-script.test.ts
Tests cover asset derivation, checksum and signature failures, manifest and receipt validation, job dependencies, verified artifact attachment, shared target usage, and resume wiring.

P1 Badge Decode Tauri's signature envelope before parsing

With a signed desktop build, Tauri writes each updater .sig as a Base64 encoding of the complete minisign signature box, while this line passes that outer encoding directly to a parser expecting the inner 74-byte Ed || key-id || signature record. The decoded value is therefore the minisign text rather than 74 bytes, so verify-release rejects every real signed bundle before publication. Decode the Tauri envelope first, parse its minisign payload, and update the fixture to match an actual Tauri-generated .sig rather than the currently hand-written inner form.

The standalone checksum file name breaks the pre-publication gate.

The workflow writes ocx-${RELEASE_VERSION}-${STANDALONE_TARGET}.sha256, but expectedReleaseAssets requires ${archive}.sha256, such as ocx-<version>-<target>.tar.gz.sha256. The upload glob includes the incorrectly named file, so verify-release reports the expected checksum asset as missing. The checksum record also names the archive, while verifyChecksums requires the record to match the checksum file name without .sha256.

-          if [[ "$RUNNER_OS" == "Windows" ]]; then sha256sum "ocx-${RELEASE_VERSION}-${STANDALONE_TARGET}.zip" > "ocx-${RELEASE_VERSION}-${STANDALONE_TARGET}.sha256"

Add a workflow-shape assertion that checks the standalone checksum target against the verifier's ${archive}.sha256 expectation. The current test oracle derives checksum names with writeAsset, so it does not inspect this shell command.

이 PR은 릴리스 파일을 올리기 전에 검사하게 만든다. 예전에는 파일을 붙인 뒤에 체크섬을 봤고, 연습 실행(dry-run)에서는 그 검사를 건너뛰었다. 이제는 패키징이 끝나면 검사 작업이 돌고, 그 검사가 끝나야 npm에 올린다. 검사 영수증의 버전과 커밋이 이번 실행과 같을 때만 GitHub 릴리스에 파일을 붙인다. npm만 올라가고 그 다음이 실패한 경우를 위해 재개 스위치가 있다. 그 스위치는 npm publish를 다시 하지 않고 GitHub 쪽만 이어서 한다.

desktop/scripts/verify-release-assets.ts verifyUpdaterSignature - 서명이 Ed일 때만 통과시키고, 파일 원본 바이트에 서명을 맞춘다. 이 저장소의 @tauri-apps/cli 2.5.0은 그렇게 서명하지 않는다. minisign 0.7.3은 알고리즘을 ED로 적고, 파일 전체가 아니라 BLAKE2b-512 해시에 서명한다. 서명 상자에는 trusted comment와 전역 서명이 붙고, 디스크의 .sig는 그 상자 문자열을 base64로 한 번 더 감싼 값이다. 테스트(makeMinisignKeypair)는 Tauri 출력이 아니라 테스트가 만든 Ed 두 줄 서명을 쓴다. 업데이터 비밀키가 없는 연습 실행은 통과할 수 있다. 키가 있는 실제 릴리스는 여기서 멈춘다. 나쁜 파일은 안 올라간다. 정상 파일도 못 올라간다.

메인테이너의 판단이 필요한 지점
재개 스위치는 npm에 같은 버전 이름이 있는지만 확인한다. 그 패키지가 이 커밋에서 나왔는지는 보지 않는다. 운영자가 직접 켜는 스위치라서 이 정도로 둘지, npm의 gitHead가 이번 커밋과 같은지까지 볼지 정해 주면 된다.

너의 추천
머지하지 말고, 서명 검사를 Tauri 2.5.0이 만드는 .sig에 맞춰 고쳐라. 바깥 base64를 풀고, ED와 BLAKE2b 해시를 검사하고, tauri signer sign으로 만든 파일을 테스트에 넣어라.

The release pipeline verified checksums and generated the updater manifest
inside attach-release, a job that runs after publication and is skipped on
dry-run. The guarantee that gives is "packaging finished before publish";
the guarantee a release needs is "everything about to be published was
verified valid before publish".

desktop/scripts/verify-release-assets.ts is the verification authority.
It derives the expected platform file set from the release workflow's own
packaging matrices and the producer tables (build-standalone targets,
collect-release-assets bundle names), verifies every recorded checksum
against the bytes on disk with the bare-name rule the flat verification
directory requires, verifies every updater signature cryptographically
against the minisign public key pinned in tauri.conf.json (pure Ed25519
"Ed" mode, the form the Tauri bundler emits; the prehashed "ED" mode
fails loudly rather than mis-verifying), generates the updater manifest
and parses it back against the files it names, and writes a
machine-readable receipt that a later stage can require.

bundlesByTarget and platformFiles are exported from their owning scripts,
and the standalone target set, archive naming, and executable naming move
into scripts/standalone-targets.ts, which the builder and the verifier
share — a target added to one side without the other fails verification,
not the release. Unit tests in
release-desktop-scripts.test.ts cover the derivation against the real
workflow, checksum acceptance and the three refusal modes, signature
verification with real Ed25519 fixtures (tampered payload, foreign key
id, unsupported algorithm), and the full flow including the receipt.
They were reviewed statically and are first executed by hosted CI.
…le publish path

The pipeline now has a verify-release job between packaging and
publication. It downloads the packaged artifacts, runs the verifier over
them — expected platform set, checksums, updater signatures, manifest
generation and parse-back — and publishes the verified bundle plus the
verification receipt. publish waits for verify-release instead of
verifying nothing, and attach-release downloads the verified bundle and
refuses to upload unless the receipt names this run's version and
commit. Checksum verification and latest.json generation moved out of
attach-release into verify-release, so they now run on dry-run too: a
dry run proves the same chain a real release relies on.

npm and GitHub are not published atomically, so a run that acknowledged
npm publication and failed afterwards needs a path that completes the
GitHub side without republishing. The new resume-after-npm-publish
dispatch input is that path: the preflight requires the version to
already exist on npm and refuses to combine with dry-run, the publish
step skips npm publish while still emitting the publication receipt the
downstream steps gate on, and release creation is idempotent so a
release left behind by the failed run is reused for attachment. A
successful publish records these recovery instructions in the job
summary at the moment they matter.

The workflow-contract tests assert the new ordering graph, the absence
of verification steps in attach-release, the receipt gate's ordering
before the upload, and the recovery branches; the publish-needs
assertion in ci-workflows.test.ts follows the new graph. Release
automation changed, so this carries the explicit security review the
repository requires: no permissions blocks change, no secrets are added
or re-scoped, and verification (commit 1) is reviewable separately from
publication ordering and the recovery input (this commit).

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Use a Tauri-compatible Minisign verifier at this boundary. @tauri-apps/cli is pinned to 2.5.0, and createUpdaterArtifacts is enabled. Tauri writes each .sig as a base64-encoded Minisign envelope. Its inner signature uses ED and signs the BLAKE2b-512 digest, not the raw asset bytes.

verifyUpdaterSignature currently decodes the outer value as a 74-byte payload, so it rejects a Tauri signature as malformed before reaching the algorithm check. A parser that only changes "Ed" to "ED" would still verify the wrong data. Replace this hand-rolled path with Tauri-compatible Minisign parsing and verification. The verifier must decode the envelope, read the inner ED payload, and verify the BLAKE2b-512 digest.

When TAURI_SIGNING_PRIVATE_KEY is configured, verify-release adds --require-signatures and calls this function. The job fails, and publish and attach-release cannot proceed.

Bun.file(...).text() and toContain can pass when a target appears in a comment or unused string. The test would then pass even if standaloneTargets exports an incorrect list. Import standaloneTargets from scripts/standalone-targets.ts and compare the exact expected array. Also verify the build script imports or uses that export, rather than only checking for the path text.

Also applies to: 17-17

In `@tests/gui/standalone-build-script.test.ts` at line 5, Update the standalone
build script test to import standaloneTargets from scripts/standalone-targets.ts
and assert it equals the exact expected target array instead of reading source
text with Bun.file and toContain. Also verify the build script actually imports
or uses standaloneTargets, ensuring the assertion covers the exported value and
its integration.

…ater table (#5425)

dev went red at the union of #5405 and #5391: lane F made the deb a second
Linux updater target, so the verifier's derived expected set gained
OpenCodex-<version>-linux-amd64.deb.sig, while the test's hand-written
oracle still described the earlier world where only the AppImage was
signed. Each branch was green alone; the merge was not.

The fix is derivation, not list-keeping. The signed set and the manifest
platform list in the fixture now come straight from platformFiles — the
table that decides which bundles carry the updater key — and the produced
payload list comes from the shared standalone target module and the bundle
table. A future updater target changes both sides of the assertion by
itself. The derivation test keeps its concrete payload anchors (a renamed
or dropped bundle should still fail for a human to review) and asserts the
rule instead of the roster: a bundle's signature is expected exactly when
the updater table names it.

Only the two test oracles changed; the verification ordering (checksums,
signatures and the manifest all precede publication) is untouched.
