Port Sync

Port Sync — upstream check and plan

Keep flowmark-rs at parity with the Python flowmark source. This skill is the front door to a sync: it detects a new upstream release, computes the discrepancy, and proposes a plan. It routes to the canonical runbooks rather than restating them — read those for the exact, current command sequences:

• docs/port-sync-playbook.md — the flowmark-rs Mode B runbook (authoritative)
• repos/rust-porting-playbook/playbooks/auto-sync-agent-prompt-template.md — the reusable sync agent prompt (differential-sweep discipline, per-change table)
• repos/rust-porting-playbook/playbooks/python-to-rust-sync-release-workflow.md — Mode A (Rust-only) vs Mode B (upstream baseline change)

Modes

• Interactive (default): run steps 1–4, present the plan, then stop and ask for confirmation or adjustments. Do not start porting until the user approves.
• Autonomous (port-sync --yes, or when run by a Routine / GitHub Action): run the full Mode B playbook through validation, open a draft PR, and write the sync artifact. Never publish the Rust release — that boundary stays human. Escalate on genuine ambiguity instead of guessing (playbook Principle 1).

Step 0 — Ensure submodules

git submodule update --init repos/flowmark repos/rust-porting-playbook

Most sync work fails confusingly without these.

Step 1 — Detect versions (cheap; this is the on-open check)

The SessionStart hook .claude/scripts/port-sync-check.py already runs this on open and nudges when upstream is ahead. To check on demand:

python3 .claude/scripts/port-sync-check.py   # prints a nudge only if upstream is newer

Or compute both versions explicitly:

BASELINE=$(grep -A1 '\[package.metadata.parity\]' Cargo.toml | grep version | sed 's/.*"\(.*\)"/\1/')
git -C repos/flowmark fetch --tags >/dev/null 2>&1
LATEST=$(git -C repos/flowmark tag -l 'v[0-9]*' | sort -V | tail -1)
echo "Current parity baseline: v${BASELINE}"
echo "Latest upstream tag:     ${LATEST}"

Step 2 — If already in sync

If LATEST equals v${BASELINE}: report "up to date with Python v${BASELINE}" and stop. (If the user wants a Rust-only stabilization release, that is Mode A in the sync-release-workflow — different path.)

Step 3 — If upstream is newer: compute the discrepancy

Summarize the gap so the plan is grounded in the real diff:

git -C repos/flowmark log  --oneline "v${BASELINE}..${LATEST}"
git -C repos/flowmark diff  --name-status "v${BASELINE}..${LATEST}"

Then triage test/mapping gaps early (does not modify checked-in files):

cd python
TMP=$(mktemp)
uv run flowmark-dev discover-python --local-path ../repos/flowmark --output "$TMP"
uv run flowmark-dev check-mapping --python-yaml "$TMP" \
  --rust-yaml ../admin/port-coverage-mapping/rust-tests.yaml \
  --mapping-yaml ../admin/port-coverage-mapping/test-mapping.yaml || true
cd ..

Classify each upstream change: bug fix / new feature / test change / refactor-noop. Remember the divergence is bidirectional — comrak may already implement an upstream fix (port the tests only), or carry its own divergence the upstream diff never reveals (a real parity bug). The differential sweep, not the diff, is what proves parity. See the auto-sync template, steps 4–6.

Step 4 — Produce the proposed plan

Present, for confirmation:

1. Version move: v${BASELINE} → ${LATEST}.
2. Upstream change table (commit → type → expected Rust impact) — the format in the auto-sync template.
3. Mapping gaps: new/changed Python tests to port or mark excluded.
4. Required Rust edits (playbook §"Update all parity version references"): Cargo.toml parity version, .github/workflows/ci.yml FLOWMARK_PY_VERSION, python/src/flowmark_dev_tools/cli.py DEFAULT_REF, README.md last-sync line, docs/port-status.md, fixtures in tests/testdocs/.
5. Validation gates to be run before the PR is considered done:
   • cargo fmt --all -- --check, cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -D warnings
   • cargo test --all-features
   • FLOWMARK_PARITY_PYTHON=1 cargo test --test test_parity_cross_binary
   • cd python && uv run flowmark-dev check-mapping
   • scripts/generate-parity-golden.sh + cargo build --release + scripts/corpus-parity-check.sh
6. Sync artifact to be written at docs/sync-artifacts/$(date +%F)-sync-v${BASELINE}-to-${LATEST}.md.

Step 5 — Confirm

In interactive mode: ask the user to approve, adjust, or defer the plan. On approval, execute docs/port-sync-playbook.md end-to-end (tests-first), then open a draft PR and write the sync artifact. Stop before publishing the release.
