To prevent versioning disasters in multi-package projects, you can automate release governance by enforcing simultaneous lockstep version bumps, pre-release validation, and strict semver compliance via CI/CD workflows. This ensures synchronized, error-free Squad launches.

The best way to enforce strict semver compliance during a Squad launch is to apply an automated release runbook. It validates branch cleanliness, npm token types, and package versions in lockstep before any tagging or publishing occurs.

To rollback a published npm package, you follow the runbook's rollback and deprecation guidance, which includes reverting tags and deprecating versions. Post-release synchronization steps ensure all repositories align with the stable state.

Yes, you can use CI/CD workflows to validate branch cleanliness and npm token types before publishing. The release runbook automates these pre-release checks to ensure the repository is stable and authenticated correctly for npm deployments.

Lockstep version bumps are designed for multi-package projects requiring strict semver compliance and simultaneous releases. If your project requires independent package versioning, this approach may not fit your specific release strategy.
