The release preflight ran yarn doctor --diff against the previous tag as a
hard gate, but many error-level diagnostics flag intentional patterns rather
than bugs (e.g. resetting preview state when the reply modal closes, mirroring
long-accepted code). Mark the step continue-on-error so it still runs and posts
annotations without blocking a release.
* feat(electron): sign and notarize mac release builds when Apple credentials are present
* fix(electron): work around codesign PID parsing for digit-leading app name in @electron/notarize
codesign interprets a bare '5chan.app' argument as process ID 5, so
@electron/notarize 2.5.0's pre-upload signature check fails with 'No such
process'. Backport the './' basename prefix from electron/notarize#245 as
a yarn patch until forge depends on notarize >= 3.x.
* docs(agent-playbooks): record codesign PID parsing surprise for digit-leading app name
* fix(ci): keep mac signing env consistent with certificate availability
Spaces in Electron Forge filenames (e.g. "5chan Setup.exe") broke
markdown download links in the release body. Also add allowUpdates
to finalize-release so it succeeds when a release already exists.
Restructure the release workflow so build jobs upload workflow artifacts
instead of creating GitHub releases directly. A single finalize-release
job downloads all artifacts and creates the release only when every
platform build succeeds. Also removes the unused gradle bundle step
from the Android job and adds retry logic to gradlew assembleRelease.
Replaced test.yml with ci.yml, added a built-app smoke runner in scripts/smoke-web-app.js, and inserted a release preflight so tags run the same core checks before packaging.
Remove unnecessary rename steps that were adding duplicate architecture suffixes to AppImage and ZIP filenames. Electron Forge already includes architecture in AppImage filenames, and ZIPs include it in the darwin-arch pattern.
Fix Android Capacitor compatibility by downgrading tar to 6.2.1. Add Windows-specific icon file for Squirrel installer. Update electron-forge to 7.8.0 and change DMG format to ULFO for macOS Sequoia compatibility. Add retry logic for transient SSL errors on Mac Intel runners.
Fix route parameter name in use-initial-theme hook (communityAddress -> boardIdentifier), correct release workflow artifact paths (dist -> out/make), add BUILD_ARCH env var for Linux arm64 builds, fix macOS app name dev check, and update capacitor webDir to match vite output.
