+# CI and Release Packaging Contract — Implementation Plan
+
+> Requirements and acceptance criteria are defined in [spec.md](./spec.md), and execution progress is
+> recorded in [tasks.md](./tasks.md).
+
+## 1. Architecture
+
+Build, Release, and package regression become thin callers. They invoke three operating-system
+reusable workflows with an immutable source SHA and architecture matrix. The reusable workflows own
+native preparation and package verification, while deterministic Node scripts own file discovery,
+manifests, updater metadata, size policy, and release assembly.
+
+The package layer has two artifact purposes:
+
+- `distribution` creates an exact downloadable target artifact. On macOS it requires and verifies
+  signing and notarization.
+- `verification` creates a package only inside the current runner, enforces smoke and size policies,
+  and uploads diagnostics without distributing the unsigned installer.
+
+Build and Release always request distribution artifacts. Pull-request, scheduled, and manually
+dispatched package regression always request verification.
+
+## 2. Shared Package Contract
+
+`scripts/ci/package-contract.mjs` defines the six target IDs, allowed architectures, artifact roles,
+raw updater metadata names, and required public release files. Other scripts import this contract
+instead of maintaining extension globs independently.
+
+`scripts/ci/package-manifest.mjs` locates exactly one file for every required role, rejects unknown or
+unsafe entries, hashes files, validates raw electron-builder metadata, and stages a self-contained
+target artifact. It derives check results from completed workflow evidence. For macOS distribution it
+also invokes the existing application and DMG verification helpers before recording distribution
+status.
+
+The internal artifact layout is:
+
+```text
+package-output/
+  manifest.json
+  files/
+  metadata/
+  reports/
+```
+
+Only distribution-mode `package-output` directories include distributable files. Verification mode
+retains reports and a manifest locally and uploads only diagnostic content.
+
+## 3. Installer Size Policy
+
+The Light OCR budget file retains only component budgets. Installer facts and policy move to:
+
+- `resources/package-size-baseline.json`
+- `resources/package-size-policy.json`
+
+The baseline records bytes and SHA-256 for the selected package roles from run `29978292769`. A
+baseline-import command validates that all six target directories contain exactly one expected
+candidate for every measured role before writing reviewable JSON.
+
+The comparison command matches by target and role rather than versioned filename. Initial growth and
+shrink limits are both 90 MiB. It always writes a report, including on policy failure.
+
+## 4. Reusable Workflows
+
+Each OS reusable workflow validates its inputs before dependency installation, re-declares CI and
+JavaScript-action runtime environment, uses a bounded timeout, and keeps repository permissions
+read-only.
+
+Common behavior includes frozen installation, Sharp target configuration followed by a second frozen
+installation, runtime setup, source build, target package creation, packaged smoke tests, manifest
+generation, and optional size comparison.
+
+Operating-system differences remain explicit:
+
+- Windows uses PowerShell network isolation for Light OCR and verifies both supported plugins.
+- Linux uses network namespaces, verifies OpenDAL, and omits CUA for ARM64.
+- macOS uses sandbox network isolation, verifies the application and DMG distribution chain, and
+  receives signing secrets only for distribution.
+
+Distribution outputs use unique `deepchat-package-<platform>-<arch>` artifact names, error on missing
+files, and disable redundant artifact compression.
+
+## 5. Callers
+
+`build.yml` retains the platform dispatch selector and invokes the appropriate OS matrices with
+`distribution`. macOS secrets are passed only to the macOS caller.
+
+`package-regression.yml` supports `workflow_call`, `workflow_dispatch`, and a daily 18:37 UTC
+schedule. It invokes all six targets with `verification`, enforces installer size, and passes only the
+runtime token and existing non-signing build configuration.
+
+`prcheck.yml` adds a small impact job and one conditional reusable-workflow job. The existing static,
+main, renderer, Native Memory, build, and aggregate jobs remain. `pr-required` validates both the
+classifier and the expected success-or-skip state of package regression.
+
+## 6. Release
+
+A preflight job resolves and checks the tag, main ancestry, package version, CHANGELOG section, and
+release notes before invoking any package matrix.
+
+After all six distribution artifacts are downloaded, `scripts/ci/assemble-release.mjs`:
+
+1. Validates target completeness, source identity, purpose, checks, paths, sizes, and SHA-256.
+2. Recomputes and validates raw updater metadata SHA-512 and sizes.
+3. Copies only the current public contract into a clean staging directory.
+4. Merges Windows and macOS metadata using electron-updater architecture-selection semantics.
+5. Preserves separate Linux architecture metadata.
+6. Writes `release-index.json` with target evidence and SHA-256 for the other eighteen assets.
+7. Verifies the final staging directory contains exactly nineteen allowed assets.
+
+The draft release action runs only after assembly succeeds and is the only job with write permission.
+
+## 7. Tests and Validation
+
+Vitest fixtures cover success and every fail-closed boundary: missing targets or roles, unsafe paths,
+duplicates, digest changes, invalid updater references, wrong architecture metadata, verification
+manifests in Release, missing macOS distribution evidence, and package-size limits.
+
+Parsed-YAML workflow tests cover reusable inputs, runner mappings, permissions, explicit secret
+passing, pinned actions, environment declarations, distribution versus verification behavior,
+artifact upload safety, package-impact aggregation, and release preflight ordering.
+
+Validation proceeds through focused tests, complete main and renderer suites, type checking, the
+canonical build, format, localization, lint, and a final format check. Native runner and notarization
+evidence remains pending until a future user-authorized push.
+
+## 8. Rollback
+
+The implementation is divided into documentation, deterministic tooling, reusable package workflows,
+regression integration, and release assembly commits. Reverting the caller and reusable-workflow
+commits together restores the previous duplicated pipeline. The baseline and tooling commits do not
+change application runtime behavior and can remain inert during a workflow rollback.

+# CI and Release Packaging Contract — Specification
+
+> Status: **in progress**
+>
+> Classification: **architecture**
+>
+> GitHub issue: **not requested**
+
+This document defines the maintained native packaging, regression, and release-assembly contracts.
+The implementation design is described in [plan.md](./plan.md), and execution progress is tracked in
+[tasks.md](./tasks.md).
+
+## 1. Purpose
+
+The Build and Release workflows currently duplicate six native package paths, rebuild a historical
+baseline once per target for installer-size checks, and collect release files through permissive
+globs. A missing target or updater payload can therefore be hidden by tolerant copy commands, while
+routine packaging changes require parallel edits in multiple workflow files.
+
+The new architecture makes three operating-system reusable workflows the sole owners of native
+packaging. Every distributable is described by a machine-verifiable target manifest, and release
+assembly fails closed against an explicit six-target contract.
+
+## 2. Goals
+
+- Keep electron-builder and electron-updater as the packaging and update implementation.
+- Build x64 and ARM64 packages on the repository's existing native GitHub-hosted runners.
+- Reuse one Windows, one Linux, and one macOS packaging workflow from Build, Release, and package
+  regression callers.
+- Require every macOS Build and Release artifact to be signed, notarized, stapled, and verified.
+- Keep Windows signing outside this change and never claim that Windows artifacts are signed.
+- Keep pull-request and scheduled package regression unable to access Apple signing secrets.
+- Replace permissive release collection with exact manifests, digests, updater metadata validation,
+  and a public release index.
+- Replace historical baseline rebuilds with a committed installer-size baseline and policy.
+- Preserve the existing parallel PR quality gates and add package regression only for relevant
+  packaging or runtime changes.
+
+## 3. Acceptance Criteria
+
+### AC-1 — Reusable Native Packaging
+
+- `_package-windows.yml`, `_package-linux.yml`, and `_package-macos.yml` are the sole owners of their
+  operating system's runner mapping, native runtime installation, packaging, packaged smoke tests,
+  and target artifact staging.
+- Each reusable workflow accepts an immutable source SHA, an `x64` or `arm64` architecture, an
+  `artifact-purpose` of `distribution` or `verification`, and an installer-size gate switch.
+- Build and Release use `distribution`; package regression uses `verification`.
+- Secrets are passed explicitly at every reusable-workflow boundary. `secrets: inherit` is absent.
+- Called workflows declare their own required environment because caller workflow-level environment
+  values are not inherited.
+
+### AC-2 — Signing Boundary
+
+- Every macOS package produced by `build.yml` or `release.yml` requires the signing certificate and
+  Apple notarization credentials before expensive work starts.
+- Distribution packaging verifies the signed and stapled application bundle and final DMG with
+  `codesign`, `stapler`, `spctl`, and DMG integrity checks.
+- Verification packaging explicitly disables certificate auto-discovery, receives no Apple signing
+  secrets, and never uploads a complete unsigned installer.
+- Windows and Linux manifests contain no macOS distribution fields and no generic `signed` claim.
+- Windows signing and certificate acquisition remain outside this goal.
+
+### AC-3 — Target Manifest
+
+- Each target manifest binds the package to one platform, architecture, source commit, application
+  version, artifact purpose, toolchain version, check result, and exact file list.
+- Manifest files include byte size and SHA-256 for every staged file.
+- Only regular files inside the target staging root are accepted. Absolute paths, traversal,
+  symlinks, duplicate basenames, duplicate roles, and unknown public files are rejected.
+- A distribution manifest is generated only after package smoke and requested size gates pass.
+- macOS distribution status is derived from actual verification commands, not caller-supplied
+  booleans.
+
+### AC-4 — Fail-Closed Release
+
+- Release preflight resolves an existing lightweight or annotated tag to a commit and never falls
+  back to the workflow context SHA.
+- The tagged commit must be reachable from `origin/main`, match `package.json` version, and have a
+  non-empty matching CHANGELOG section before any native package job starts.
+- Assembly requires exactly the six supported targets: Windows, Linux, and macOS on x64 and ARM64.
+- Every manifest must use the release source commit, version, and `distribution` purpose.
+- Missing files, duplicate public names, unexpected targets, digest mismatches, incomplete macOS
+  distribution evidence, or invalid updater metadata fail the release.
+- Only the final draft-release job receives `contents: write`.
+
+### AC-5 — Updater Compatibility
+
+- Windows publishes `latest.yml` with x64 and ARM64 NSIS entries plus both EXE blockmaps.
+- macOS publishes `latest-mac.yml` with x64 and ARM64 ZIP entries plus both ZIP blockmaps.
+- DMG remains a manual installer and is excluded from updater metadata and blockmap generation.
+- Linux publishes separate `latest-linux.yml` and `latest-linux-arm64.yml` files that reference the
+  corresponding AppImage.
+- Every metadata URL resolves to a staged release file, and its SHA-512 and byte size match that file.
+- Windows and macOS entries are ordered x64 before ARM64, with legacy `path` and `sha512` fields
+  pointing to x64.
+- The workflow uploads exactly nineteen assets under the current package target configuration,
+  including `release-index.json`.
+
+### AC-6 — Package Regression
+
+- Component budgets for OCR assets, Node, and other packaged runtimes remain part of every packaged
+  Light OCR smoke test.
+- Installer comparison reads committed baseline facts instead of rebuilding the historical commit.
+- The initial baseline records successful run `29978292769` and source commit
+  `dfb4ba0f34c008c27cfb6bd98a08fdbd36f7b343`.
+- Windows EXE, Linux AppImage and tarball, and macOS ZIP and DMG enforce upper and lower delta bounds.
+- `package-regression.yml` supports reusable, manual, and scheduled execution, always covers all six
+  targets, and uploads reports rather than complete unsigned installers.
+- A packaging-impact classifier runs on every PR. Relevant changes require package regression;
+  unrelated changes require it to be skipped; classification failure fails the aggregate check.
+
+## 4. Constraints
+
+- Do not migrate to Electron Forge or universal macOS packages.
+- Do not add dependency caching.
+- Do not modify Windows signing, OAuth build-time credential behavior, or
+  `windows-arm64-e2e.yml`.
+- Preserve frozen pnpm installs and the second install required after `install:sharp`.
+- Preserve current native runtime, Light OCR, DuckDB VSS, OpenDAL, CUA, and Feishu verification.
+- Keep Actions pinned to immutable commit SHAs and checkout credentials disabled.
+- Do not create or synchronize a GitHub issue.
+- Do not push from this implementation branch.
+
+## 5. Non-Goals
+
+- Changing application runtime behavior or public application APIs.
+- Publishing unsigned macOS verification artifacts.
+- Replacing GitHub Releases or electron-updater.
+- Introducing Windows certificates, package signing, or signing assertions.
+- Refactoring the standalone Windows ARM64 E2E workflow.
+- Changing branch-protection settings.
+
+## 6. Compatibility and Risks
+
+- The final metadata intentionally follows electron-builder 26 and electron-updater 6 selection
+  semantics. Dependency upgrades must rerun the metadata contract tests before release.
+- The exact nineteen-asset allowlist intentionally rejects new package formats until the contract,
+  tests, and release index are updated together.
+- Verification-mode macOS package sizes can differ slightly from signed distribution sizes. The
+  initial 90 MiB delta bounds tolerate signing overhead while still catching material omissions.
+- Native GitHub runner behavior and real Apple notarization cannot be proven locally. Local tests
+  cover structure and deterministic scripts; a future pushed run remains required for remote
+  evidence.
+- The package-impact classifier deliberately trades runner cost for safety: any packaging-related
+  change runs all six native targets.
+
+## 7. Open Questions
+
+None. Tooling choice, signing boundary, target set, public asset set, regression trigger behavior, and
+deferred work are fixed for this implementation.
