Extract deterministic publish operations into shared script - #116
Extract deterministic publish operations into shared script#116adalton wants to merge 6 commits into
Conversation
Add _shared/scripts/publish.sh with subcommands for pre-flight checks, push, existing PR/MR detection, GitHub PR creation, GitLab MR creation, and metadata serialization. Update all six publish/PR phase skills (bugfix, implement, e2e, prd, design, docs-writer) to call the shared script for deterministic operations while keeping AI-dependent work (PR body generation, cross-cutting review, user prompts) in the skills. The script is shellcheck-clean, supports both GitHub (gh) and GitLab (glab) platforms, and uses structured exit codes so skills can detect specific failure modes (auth, push, PR creation) and apply the appropriate fallback strategy. PATCH bump: bugfix 0.8.1, implement 0.9.1, e2e 0.7.1, prd 0.9.2, design 0.9.2, docs-writer 0.3.2
WalkthroughAdded ChangesPublishing workflow migration
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Change: Refactor Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Fork-based GitLab MR publishing is currently blocked because the existing-MR lookup uses literal project placeholders instead of the selected projects. Expand both variables before merging. Suggested labels: 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 12✅ Passed checks (12 passed)

Inline comments:
In `@_shared/scripts/publish.sh`:
- Around line 304-306: Update the create-pr flow around the gh pr create
invocation at _shared/scripts/publish.sh lines 304-306 and the create-mr flow
around glab mr create at _shared/scripts/publish.sh lines 394-396 to capture
stderr separately, extract and emit only the resulting URL on stdout, and exit
with status 4 when no URL is found.
- Around line 203-208: Update the check-existing provider lookups around the gh
and glab commands to preserve and inspect command failures instead of
suppressing stderr and forcing success with “|| true”. Return a nonzero failure
status when either lookup cannot execute or fails, while retaining the existing
“found result” exit behavior and treating only a successful empty result as safe
to create.
- Around line 75-80: Update the duplicated argument-parsing loops in the publish
script, including cmd_push and the other value-taking flag parsers, to use one
shared helper for reading required flag values. The helper must detect a missing
"$2" before dereferencing it, fail clearly while naming the flag, and preserve
the existing shift and unknown-flag behavior for valid inputs. Ensure quoted
expansions and the script’s established error-handling mode are maintained.
- Around line 213-214: Update the glab mr list invocation in the result
assignment to use --output json instead of --json, while preserving --jq and the
valid --head "$head_project" argument so merge-request detection works
correctly.
- Around line 1-2: Add focused tests for _shared/scripts/publish.sh covering
argument parsing, expected exit codes, and JSON encoding. Extend or add the
relevant _shared/scripts/test_*.py test module while keeping the existing
provenance.py coverage unchanged.
- Around line 121-129: Align the preflight documentation with cmd_preflight’s
actual behavior by removing the documented exit-code 2 claim; keep the
structured auth, branch, and change-status output and existing zero return
behavior unchanged.
- Around line 456-463: Update the numeric check in the metadata serialization
branch to accept only exactly 0 or non-zero integers without leading zeros;
serialize values such as 007 as escaped JSON strings. Preserve the existing
numeric output for valid integer values and string escaping for all other
values.
In `@bugfix/skills/pr.md`:
- Around line 158-160: Update the change-detection step to treat
has_uncommitted, has_staged, or non-empty git status --porcelain output as
evidence of changes, including staged and untracked files. Preserve the existing
stop-and-inform-user behavior when all checks indicate no changes.
- Line 90: Resolve the publish script from the appropriate repository root and
reuse that resolved path across all execution contexts. In bugfix/skills/pr.md,
update lines 90, 444, 463, 479, and 492 so preflight and PR operations use the
root-resolved path. In prd/skills/publish.md, capture the source repository path
before switching repositories at line 74, then reuse it at lines 193, 226, and
242 for pushes, PR creation, and metadata saving.
In `@design/skills/publish.md`:
- Around line 74-75: Update the preflight and push command blocks to resolve the
shared publish script path relative to the invoking file before changing into
{docs_repo_path}; use that resolved path in both subshells so arbitrary docs
repository locations work while preserving the shared-resource reference.
- Line 267: Update the publish flow in publish.sh to invoke check-existing
before create-pr; when check-existing returns exit code 5, reuse its returned PR
data and skip create-pr, preserving the existing PR URL and metadata.
In `@docs-writer/skills/create-mr.md`:
- Around line 131-133: Update the no-change check in the pre-flight workflow to
consider both has_uncommitted and has_staged; when falling back to Git
inspection, include staged and untracked changes via git status --porcelain
rather than relying only on git diff --stat. Stop only when all supported change
checks indicate an empty working tree.
- Line 252: Update the Step 6 push commands in create-mr.md to use the remote
names discovered in Step 1, passing the upstream remote to the direct push and
the fork remote to the fork push instead of hardcoded origin and fork values.
Preserve the existing branch naming and push behavior.
In `@e2e/skills/publish.md`:
- Around line 181-182: Update the exit-code-5 existing-PR branches to parse the
shared command’s JSON payload and carry both number and url into the metadata
consumed by Step 7. Apply this in e2e/skills/publish.md lines 181-182 and
implement/skills/publish.md lines 177-178; both sites require the same direct
change so reruns provide pr_number as well as the returned URL.
- Around line 215-217: Update the PR-creation-failure fallback in
e2e/skills/publish.md lines 215-217 and implement/skills/publish.md lines
211-213 to use the direct-clone compare URL with {owner}/{repo} and
{branch-name}; reserve the {fork-owner}:{branch-name} form for fork-based
publishing.
- Around line 178-179: Update the shared check-existing lookup in
e2e/skills/publish.md lines 178-179 and implement/skills/publish.md lines
174-175 to accept and pass both the fork owner and branch name, ensuring the
lookup targets the intended fork rather than any matching branch; adjust the
shared publish script accordingly to apply both filters.
In `@prd/skills/publish.md`:
- Line 77: Update the preflight flow in the publish skill to stop before Step 4
when the parsed status reports auth_ok=false. Direct the agent to authenticate
and rerun preflight, or explicitly support and document a preparation-only mode
that does not create branches or commit.

both values explicitly.
In `@e2e/skills/publish.md`:
- Line 183: Update the publish workflow around the fork lookup command to

This fallback always uses

PUBLISH_SCRIPTfrom the source repository root.
dirname "../../_shared/scripts/publish.sh"resolves from the shell current directory. This skill uses source-repository artifact paths but does not change intoprd/skills, so execution from the source repository root resolves the path outside the repository. Resolve the source root before changing into the docs repository.As per path instructions, shared resources from

In `@_shared/scripts/publish.sh`:
- Around line 534-537: Update cmd_save_metadata so newline-containing --pair
values are not split into separate metadata records before json_escape; preserve
embedded newlines through metadata sorting, or reject such values before
sorting. Keep normal pair parsing and JSON escaping behavior unchanged.
In `@bugfix/skills/pr.md`:
- Line 56: Move the PUBLISH_SCRIPT assignment using git rev-parse
--show-toplevel to after Step 0 enters the project repository and before Step 1,
so it resolves within the project’s Git worktree.
- Line 477: Update the check-existing invocations in the fork workflows to pass
the fork-qualified head: use FORK_OWNER:bugfix/BRANCH_NAME in
bugfix/skills/pr.md and {fork-owner}:{branch-name} in
implement/skills/publish.md. Preserve {branch-name} for direct-clone workflows.
In `@docs-writer/skills/create-mr.md`:
- Line 80: Quote the shared PUBLISH_SCRIPT variable in every publish.sh
invocation to preserve paths containing spaces: update
docs-writer/skills/create-mr.md lines 80-80 and all later commands, and
e2e/skills/publish.md lines 78-78 and all later commands, using the quoted
variable consistently.
- Line 294: Update both create-mr flows to run check-existing with the upstream
repository, docs branch, and GitLab platform before creation; reuse the returned
MR JSON on exit code 5, create only on exit code 0, and stop for other statuses.
Extend publish.sh fork checks to include FORK_PROJECT alongside source_branch so
existing merge requests are matched to the correct fork.
In `@e2e/skills/publish.md`:
- Line 78: Update the publish preflight dirty-state check to include the
has_untracked result alongside has_uncommitted and has_staged, and stop to
request an include-or-discard decision when untracked files are present.
- Line 78: Update the publish skill’s preflight flow after invoking the publish
script with the GitHub platform: check the returned auth_ok value, and when it
is false, stop all subsequent GitHub operations and instruct the user to run gh
auth login before retrying /publish.
In `@prd/skills/publish.md`:
- Around line 251-252: Update the publish flow to define the selected PR title
using the issue-key condition, then pass that value unchanged to create-pr via
--title. Use “{issue-key}: PRD - {title}” when an issue key exists and “PRD:
{title}” otherwise.

Replace the process substitution in save-metadata with a temp-file approach so sort failures are detected and reported. The prior `mapfile < <(... | sort -z)` silently masked sort exit status. Add project:branch format support to the GitLab check-existing path, matching the owner:branch pattern already used for GitHub. The docs-writer fork workflow now passes FORK_PROJECT:branch so the MR lookup filters by source_project_id, preventing false matches from other forks with the same branch name.

In the context of the flightctl/ai-workflows repository, _shared/scripts/publish.sh is not a standard or documented component of the project's repository structure [1][2][3]. The project uses a structured architecture where shared components are located in the _shared/ directory, and individual workflows may contain an optional scripts/ directory [1]. According to the project's documentation: 1. Shared files are maintained in _shared/ and can be referenced by various workflows [1]. 2. Workflow-specific scripts are located in a workflow's local scripts/ folder [1]. 3. The project provides installation and management scripts at the root level, such as install.sh and uninstall.sh, but publish.sh is not among the documented utility scripts [2]. If you are encountering this path in a specific environment, it may be a custom script or part of a deployment pipeline not covered by the public repository documentation. Given the project's conventions, any script named publish.sh within a _shared/ directory would likely be intended for centralized automation or release management of shared components, though it is not a recognized part of the official flightctl/ai-workflows codebase [1].

PATCH-bump every consuming workflow with the shared-script change.
Commits 6a1ac87, 37d073b, b049d3f, d305a84, and f332146 change _shared/scripts/publish.sh without changing any version: line. Bump bugfix/SKILL.md, design/SKILL.md, docs-writer/SKILL.md, e2e/SKILL.md, implement/SKILL.md, and prd/SKILL.md in the same commit as each shared behavior change. Separate version-bump commits do not satisfy CONTRIBUTING.md.

Expand the recorded project variables in the fork lookup.
This command passes literal UPSTREAM_PROJECT and FORK_PROJECT. The shared script then queries those literal project names and fails before MR creation. Set the recorded values as shell variables, then expand both values here.

In `@docs-writer/skills/create-mr.md` at line 298, Update the fork lookup command
using "$PUBLISH_SCRIPT" and the check-existing operation to expand the shell
variables holding the upstream and fork project values instead of passing the
literal UPSTREAM_PROJECT and FORK_PROJECT placeholders, while preserving the
existing head branch and platform arguments.

Summary
Extract deterministic publish/PR/MR operations from 6 workflow skill files
into a shared
_shared/scripts/publish.sh, reducing AI token consumptionby an estimated ~12,000–18,000 tokens per full workflow run.
This follows the pattern established by triage's
scan.pyandrender_report.py: deterministic CLI work moves to a script; the AI skillfile retains ownership of AI-dependent work (PR body generation,
cross-cutting review, user confirmation prompts).
What changed
New:
_shared/scripts/publish.sh(499 lines, shellcheck-clean)preflight,push,check-existing,create-pr,create-mr,save-metadatagh) and GitLab (glab)Updated skill files (6):
bugfix/skills/pr.mdimplement/skills/publish.mde2e/skills/publish.mdprd/skills/publish.mddesign/skills/publish.mddocs-writer/skills/create-mr.mdEach skill now calls
publish.shfor deterministic operations whileretaining AI-dependent work (PR body generation, cross-cutting review,
user confirmation).
PATCH version bumps on all 6 consuming SKILL.md files per repo
convention (shared script change).
Motivation
From a token-savings audit of all workflows (excluding cve-fix), the
publish/PR ceremony was identified as the #1 opportunity: ~10 sequential
deterministic commands (auth check, fork detection, push, PR creation,
metadata JSON) repeated across 6 workflows, with only PR body generation
requiring AI judgment.
