FAQPage Schema
How do I coordinate an npm package release with canary validation and GitHub releases?▼

To coordinate an npm package release, the workflow validates candidate SHAs, runs canary validation from master, executes type checks and builds, performs smoke testing, and publishes artifacts and GitHub release notes.

What is the process for promoting a canary build to a stable release?▼

Promoting a canary build to a stable release requires manual stable promotion from a chosen source ref, enforcing specific inputs, validating the candidate SHA, and running type checks and builds before publication.

How do I automate changelog generation and website announcements for a software release?▼

Automating changelog generation and website announcements involves drafting a stable changelog, creating a GitHub release, and executing website and announcement follow-up tasks across master and release pipelines.

Does the release workflow support Docker-based smoke testing before publishing?▼

Yes, Docker-based smoke testing and validation are supported as core features, running alongside type checks and builds to verify artifacts before stable promotion and npm publication.

What are the limitations of automating end-to-end release cycles across master and release pipelines?▼

Limitations include the requirement to enforce specific inputs and validate candidate SHAs manually, meaning the workflow depends on correct source refs and successful canary verification before stable promotion.
