# Dagger Chores

## Go Version Bump

Use this checklist when asked to bump Go.

1. Update the Go version string in `engine/distconsts/consts.go`:

- `GolangVersion = "X.Y.Z"`

1. Update the Go default version string in `.dagger/modules/go/main.go`:

- `// +default="X.Y.Z"` on the `version` argument in `New(...)`

1. Use a short commit message in this format:

- `chore: bump to go <major.minor>`
- Example: `chore: bump to go 1.26`

1. Create a signed commit:

- `git commit -s -m "chore: bump to go <major.minor>"`

1. Tell the user to double-check whether new Go version locations have been introduced since the last bump, and mention they can ask the agent for help finding them.

- Suggested wording: `Please double-check if any additional Go version strings were added in new files; these locations can change over time. If helpful, I can also help search for those locations.`

## Regenerate Generated Files

Use this checklist when asked to regenerate generated files.

1. From the Dagger repo root, create a temp file for command output and store its path in `tmp_log`.

1. Run generation and redirect all output to the temp file:

- `dagger generate -y >"$tmp_log" 2>&1`

1. Search the temp file as needed instead of printing full output.

1. Delete the temp file when done.

## Regenerate Golden Tests

Use this checklist when asked to regenerate telemetry golden tests.

1. From the Dagger repo root, run `dagger call engine-dev test-telemetry --update -y`
