    # `:dev` builds were dropped 2026-05-26 to save a docker build per dev
    # push, on the reasoning that "operator tests from `:latest` after
    # merge-to-main". Restored 2026-08-27: that is testing by shipping, and
    # family rules 146/147 now name it directly — `main` IS production, and a
    # channel that can only be refreshed by shipping is not a channel. The
    # pressure to merge in order to try something does not come from
    # carelessness; it comes from `:dev` being unable to carry the build.
    #
    # All three images build on dev, deliberately: a `:dev` web image paired
    # with a stale `:dev` ml or agent is a worse trap than no dev channel at
    # all, since the mismatch only shows up as a runtime failure.
    branches: [main, dev]
    #
    # NO tag trigger (milestone 318 step 2). A `v*` tag names a commit `main`
    # already built and published; rebuilding it produces the same source under
    # the same names and RE-PUSHES `:c-<sha>`, which rule 145 forbids even when
    # the bytes match — image configs carry timestamps, so "same source" does
    # not mean "same manifest". The release build was publishing nothing new
    # and violating an immutability rule to do it.
    #
    # Releases still happen (rule 148, on explicit request per rule 2). They
    # produce a changelog, not an image.

# Requires repo secret RELEASE_TOKEN — a Forgejo PAT with scopes:
#   - write:package, read:package  (for docker push to git.fabledsword.com)
#   - write:release                (for ext-<version> release asset cache)
#   - write:issue                  (for future issue-management automation)
# The injected GITHUB_TOKEN cannot be used — it lacks write:package.

jobs:
  # Sign-or-fetch-from-cache: signs the extension via AMO if no ext-<version>
  # Forgejo release exists yet, otherwise downloads the cached signed XPI.
  # Result is uploaded as an Actions artifact for build-web to consume.
  #
  # Why this lives in build.yml (not a separate workflow): the image a push
  # publishes MUST carry the XPI. A separate sign workflow racing build.yml
  # leaves that image without one for ~5min (until the commit-back triggers
  # another build). Inline ordering eliminates the race.
  # Cache strategy: Forgejo Release Assets — picked 2026-05-25 over Generic
  # Packages (cleaner API surface) and commit-back-to-side-branch (no extra
  # branch to manage). AMO blocks re-signing the same version (returns 409),
  # so signing is intentionally one-shot per version.
  #
  # BOTH branches sign (milestone 271 step 6, 2026-08-27). Not two signatures:
  # the version is the commit TIME of the newest packaged-extension change, so
  # dev and main derive the SAME number for the same extension source. A dev
  # push that changes the extension signs it; the merge to main then finds the
  # ext-<version> release already there, hits the cache, and bundles the
  # byte-identical XPI into `:latest` with no second AMO call. One signature
  # per extension CHANGE, shared by both channels — that is what makes two
  # channels affordable, and it is why step 4 (derived version) had to land
  # first. Ungating this while the version was still the hand-set 1.0.11 would
  # have hit the existing ext-1.0.11 cache and bundled MAIN's stale XPI into
  # `:dev` — a dev channel confidently serving old code.
  #
  # Unconditional since milestone 318 step 2: main and dev are now the only
  # triggers, so the branch gate that used to exclude tag pushes matched
  # everything. A condition that is always true reads as if some path avoids
  # it, which is worse than no condition.

      # The test is `derived < highest already signed`, strictly. Equality is
      # the ORDINARY case, not a fault: an unchanged extension derives the same
      # version it did last build, which is exactly what lets the ext-<version>

          # "a third name for the same thing is upkeep for a model we do not

          # gone — recovery is revert-on-git plus a CI cycle.

      # Keyed on an `fc.revision` LABEL rather than on a tag of its own
      # (milestone 318 step 3). A tag would be a name minted per build that one
      # thing reads — what rule 145 narrowed against — and would be prunable
      # under the registry's keep_pattern (#3157), silently expiring the cache.
      # A label rides inside a tag that has to exist anyway.
      #
      # An image with no such label reads as a miss and rebuilds. That is the
      # migration, not a fault: labels cannot be backfilled, since the reuse
      # path copies a manifest and config labels are not manifest annotations.
      # Each artifact pays one rebuild, once.
      #
      # This is what stops a push that touched only `agent/` from rebuilding
      # web and ml, and a merge to main from rebuilding what dev already built.
      #
      # The failure direction is deliberate. An inspect that errors for ANY
      # reason — network, auth, a registry hiccup — reads as a miss and the
      # build runs. Only a genuine 200 skips one, so there is no path here
      # that skips a build that was actually needed; the worst case is paying
      # for a build we could have avoided.

      # no immutable name a refresh could contradict, and rule 145 already
      # allows a rebuild with different contents to republish a MOVING tag.

      # web and ml, and a merge to main from rebuilding what dev already built.
      #
      # The failure direction is deliberate. An inspect that errors for ANY
      # reason — network, auth, a registry hiccup — reads as a miss and the
      # build runs. Only a genuine 200 skips one, so there is no path here
      # that skips a build that was actually needed; the worst case is paying
      # for a build we could have avoided.

      # used to need rather than answering it — with no version tags there is
      # no immutable name a refresh could contradict, and rule 145 already
      # allows a rebuild with different contents to republish a MOVING tag.
      # So a refresh is just a build. A scheduled channel-only one is tracked
      # separately (#3154); it does not belong in the push path.
