📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

GitHub Actions release workflow refactored to correct job-to-workflow mappings, swap custom-publish-docker and custom-publish-npm job implementations, add a new announce job with conditional success criteria, and adjust publish job permissions. Distribution workspace configuration updated to include npm in the publish job pipeline.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Release Workflow Restructuring .github/workflows/release.yml	Job mappings corrected: custom-publish-docker now invokes publish-docker.yml and custom-publish-npm invokes publish-npm.yml. Permissions restricted to id-token: write and packages: write. New announce job added that depends on host and all publish jobs, runs only when host succeeds and publish jobs are skipped or successful, with credentials disabled checkout.
Distribution Configuration dist-workspace.toml	NPM publish job added to publish-jobs list alongside existing PyPI and Docker publish jobs.

Poem

🐰 A rabbit hops through workflows grand,
Publishing jobs now rearranged as planned,
With announce calls after success rings true,
And npm joins the pipeline crew! 🚀

Add contents: read to caller permissions for reusable publish jobs.

Both called workflows perform actions/checkout@v6; without contents: read at the caller, checkout will fail due to reduced token scope in reusable workflow execution.

🔧 Proposed fix

 custom-publish-docker:
...
permissions:
+ "contents": "read"
"id-token": "write"
"packages": "write"
custom-publish-npm:
...
permissions:
+ "contents": "read"
"id-token": "write"
"packages": "write"
