ci: own .NET template validation and publication - #535
Conversation

✅ Action performedReview finished.

Validated signed source The workflow-boundary test first failed because the owner-local validation workflow did not exist. After migration it passes, including seven mutations rejecting a missing OS, widened permissions, a mutable/remote callee and incorrect publishing credentials. Self-review covered correctness, simplification and security: publication retains its existing tag/manual entrypoints, exact tool/action revisions and job-scoped permissions; pull requests never receive the package credential. No OIDC publisher identity changes are involved. Hosted local and established protected matrices both passed on Ubuntu, Windows and macOS. These are source and validation results, not proof of a NuGet publication or native protection cutover. #534 remains open for that cutover. |

- Line 34: Move the .NET SDK setup action ahead of the source snapshot command
in the workflow, ensuring `dotnet nuget list source --format Detailed` runs only
after the pinned SDK is installed and does not depend on the runner’s
preinstalled SDK.
- Line 51: Update the github-token condition in the workflow so merge-group runs
receive no package credentials, matching pull-request validation; only
non-merge-group, non-pull-request events may pass secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN.
Review comments at @scripts/workflow-ownership.test.sh:
- Around line 14-18: Extend the workflow contract assertions for both jobs to
require checkout steps with persist-credentials set to false, and add a
negative-control case proving the validation fails when either setting is
removed. Preserve the existing permission and action-ownership checks.

## Feature flags
**Protected-source cutover (#534):** the existing organization rule still requires the centralized .NET workflow during overlap. Do not remove that source or its protection until the declarative rule points at this repository's reviewed `main` and live enforcement is verified. The local PR-triggered matrix runs alongside it during this bounded migration. `ci.yaml` aggregates the retired-link documentation check, not the .NET gate. Generated projects must configure their own branch protection; copying a workflow does not copy a ruleset.

All three review threads are addressed by signed source The old-head ancillary docstring percentage is not a callable API documentation gap: these are two internal shell test predicates, with a file-level purpose, explicit boundary checks and diagnostic messages. No production interface is undocumented, and a language-level percentage does not establish otherwise. The old-head permission-vocabulary warning no longer applies because candidate validation now requests only Contents read. Publication keeps Contents read; no extra write grant was added. CodeRabbit's authenticated review reports zero included reviews remaining in its hourly allowance, so the corrected head was sent to the next serving lane without buying an extra review. Existing protected-source overlap remains active; #534 is not complete until its declarative cutover is verified. |

Resolved the merge conflict at GitHub-verified signed head Local The previous green is stale at the new head. This stays draft while complete hosted CI and a fresh substantive review are collected; the protected-source overlap remains intact. The exact signed PR claim was retired after the push. |
The refreshed review-lane check reports CodeRabbit's included-review limit until 10:40:30 UTC; no paid review is requested. The direct current-head no-gate guard returns ADMIT. Continue with the serving Codex lane under the existing same-head review lock. All 22 current check contexts are settled success/skip; this remains draft pending substantive review. @codex review |

## Feature flags
**NuGet publication:** `dotnet-releaser.toml` targets the library only and explicitly disables
GitHub publication, which stays owned by semantic-release. The publisher validates a `v`-prefixed
release tag using current `main` tooling before checking out its source. Both automatic and manual
runs require the tagged commit to belong to fetched `main` and contain the local publisher migration;
historical tags predating that migration are explicitly rejected. The tag version passes through
the SDK's `Version` property. Build and packaging have no publication credentials. A separate job
downloads only prepared package artifacts, checks out no repository, and exchanges its OIDC identity
through pinned `NuGet/login` for a temporary key used only by `dotnet nuget push`. Only that clean
job has `id-token: write`; neither job receives a GitHub release-write token. Generated projects
must register their NuGet trusted publishing policy for `publish.ya...

Validation and user evaluation at signed head
No NuGet publication, registry-account change or branch-protection cutover was performed. #534 retains that cutover and live setup acceptance. The PR stays draft pending complete current-head controls and fresh substantive review; the composed CodeRabbit request is #issuecomment-6319106504. |

CodeRabbit's edited summary now carries a finding-free I assessed the ancillary 0% docstring metric on merit. The two functions are private test predicates over a workflow YAML path, with the full allowed contract expressed in their checks and exercised by positive layouts and 24 negative controls. I found no missing public-interface documentation or ambiguous behavior requiring a source change. No threshold or check was changed, and no replacement coverage percentage is claimed. Promotion remains on hold: all nine source-bound workflow envelopes report success and the readable required-gate inventory passes, but native workflow-scan job 119290268646 still reports |
Ready at The complete review read contains 20 conversation comments, 21 review objects and 11 resolved threads, with no unaddressed maintainer requirement or comment-form finding. CodeRabbit summary 6310101572, updated after the authenticated request for this head, still returns GREEN through the canonical parser. The current guide contains the formerly missing validation commands, and the recorded exact-head validation and user evaluation covers the workflow controls, three-platform scaffold and actual stable/prerelease package bytes. The branch includes current main, is conflict-free, has no live local holder, and passes the effective PR-body contract. Every readable required gate passes. GitHub's separate configured code-quality analysis remains unreadable to this client; its protected merge API will decide that gate, without any bypass. #534 remains open for registry setup and the branch-protection cutover; no live package publication is claimed. |
Protected merge and post-merge verification passed. #535 merged as All three native post-merge workflows and their five jobs completed successfully at that merged source: Push on main, Code Quality, and TODOs. No unfinished or failed native job remains in that collection. The source-preparation slice is delivered. #534 stays open for the reviewed protection-source cutover, registry setup, and final hosted enforcement/publication acceptance; this receipt does not claim a NuGet release or completed migration. |
Why
The template depends on centralized build and publication pipelines despite having no second production consumer. Generated projects need self-contained pipelines with clear release and credential boundaries.
What
Bring these pipelines into the template while retaining the three-platform checks and existing branch protection. Build packages without publishing credentials, then publish prepared packages separately using temporary credentials; accept only releases from the reviewed main branch after migration.
Part of #534
📦 New dependency: GitHub artifact actions and registry login transfer prepared packages and obtain temporary credentials.
💥 Breaking change: Package owners must register their repository with the package registry before publishing.
