Publish Docs

Publish Docs (no new release)

Publishes a docs-only image to ghcr.io/vfarcic/dot-agent-deck-docs with a main-<short-sha> tag and updates site/helm/values.yaml so Argo CD picks it up. Does not create a release, version bump, binary build, Homebrew formula, Scoop manifest, or GitHub release.

When to Use

• Docs / site changes have been merged to main and you want them live now.
• You don't want to cut a SemVer release just for documentation.

When NOT to Use

• You're cutting a versioned release — use /dot-ai-tag-release instead. The release workflow already publishes docs as part of the release via the same underlying docs-publish.yml workflow.
• You have un-released non-docs (code) changes that should also ship — cut a release.

Workflow

Step 1: Sync main locally

The workflow dispatches against origin/main, so make sure you know what's there:

git fetch origin
git checkout main
git pull --rebase origin main

If the user is in a worktree, fetch is enough — they don't need to switch branches; gh workflow run --ref main dispatches against the remote ref regardless of local checkout.

Step 2: Confirm there are docs/site changes since the last release

LAST_TAG=$(git tag --list 'v*' --sort=-v:refname | grep -E '^v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+$' | head -1)
echo "Last release: ${LAST_TAG}"
git log --oneline "${LAST_TAG}..origin/main" -- docs/ site/
git diff --stat "${LAST_TAG}..origin/main" -- docs/ site/

If there are no docs/site changes since the last release, inform the user and stop — there is nothing meaningful to publish.

Step 3: Show the user what will change

Present:

• Current chart tag: read from site/helm/values.yaml image.tag (e.g. v0.26.0).
• New tag: main-<short-sha> where short-sha is git rev-parse --short=7 origin/main.
• Commits included: the list from Step 2.

Ask the user to confirm before triggering the workflow.

Step 4: Trigger the workflow

gh workflow run docs-publish.yml --ref main

Step 5: Watch the run

sleep 5
RUN_ID=$(gh run list --workflow=docs-publish.yml --branch=main --limit 1 --json databaseId --jq '.[0].databaseId')
gh run watch "$RUN_ID"

Step 6: Report result

On success, tell the user:

• The image tag that was pushed (main-<sha>).
• That a chore: publish docs image main-<sha> [skip ci] commit was pushed to main — they should git pull to pick it up.
• Argo CD will detect the values.yaml change and sync within a minute or two; the site at https://agent-deck.devopstoolkit.ai will update shortly after.
• The chart now points at a main-<sha> tag. The next /dot-ai-tag-release will re-pin it to v<semver> automatically.

Notes

• Same sha → no-op: re-running on a SHA that's already published is harmless — the workflow pushes the same image bytes and the values.yaml diff is empty, so no commit happens.
• :latest is untouched: manual runs never push or move the :latest tag. That tag follows formal releases only.
• Not for release flows: do not run this inside /pr-create, /prd-full, or any release skill — it would interfere with the release path's own docs publish step.
• No changelog fragment: a docs-only publish is not a release, so no entry in changelog.d/ is needed.
