newfuture Build and Release Maintenance
- Read the root
AGENTS.mdand the current files involved in the task:.github/workflows/,docker/,.github/patch.py,run.py,pyproject.toml, and relevant test scripts. - Treat current workflow inputs, Dockerfiles, lockfiles, and pinned settings as the source of truth. Do not rely on remembered versions, images, runners, or matrices.
- Identify the affected artifact and platform set before editing. Preserve Python source, wheel/sdist, native binaries, Linux libc variants, containers, installers, and scheduled-task validation unless the task explicitly changes support.
- Keep pull-request cache access restore-only and write shared caches only from trusted branches.
- Make the narrowest coherent change. Do not disable compression, LTO, tests, caching, or a platform globally to solve one architecture failure without evidence that the policy should change.
- Reuse existing build and offline E2E scripts. Keep required pull-request checks independent of deployed websites and external mutable services.
- For release preparation, verify version transformations, expected artifact names, checksums, release notes, and rerun idempotency.
- Run the affected package, binary, container, installer, and platform checks, then report any matrix entries not exercised.
Do not publish to PyPI, container registries, or GitHub Releases. Do not access release credentials, modify repository settings, bypass protected environments, or weaken required checks.
