core-devops wants to merge 2 commits from infra/publish-runtime-verify-2026-05-11 into main

Summary

Marker file under workspace/audit/ triggers the workspace/** path
filter on publish-runtime-autobump.yml, exercising the full
publish-runtime pipeline end-to-end after the provisioning + drift fixes
landed in internal#327.

This is the canonical two-eyes verification of the new
publish-runtime-bot scope. The "empty-commit re-trigger" pattern
(reference_empty_commit_is_only_rerun_mechanism_on_1_22_6) cannot
apply here because:

  1. Empty commit changes no paths → path-filtered trigger never fires
  2. main is branch-protected → no direct push

So this PR is the only long-term-proper way to exercise the trigger
without bypassing protection, per Hongming GO directive 19:50Z.

What this exercises

  1. publish-runtime-autobump / bump-and-tag (push) reads PyPI version
    0.1.130, computes next, pushes tag runtime-v0.1.131 (or higher)
    using the new publish-runtime-bot scope.
  2. publish-runtime.yml fires on tag, builds + publishes to PyPI.
  3. Cascade autobump: 9 template repos pin to the new runtime version.

Acceptance criteria

  • autobump bump-and-tag context green on merged commit
  • tag runtime-v0.1.131 (or computed next) exists on molecule-core
  • publish-runtime.yml run green
  • PyPI molecule-ai-workspace-runtime updated from 0.1.130
  • 9 template repos updated their pinned .runtime-version

Test plan

This PR is the test — merge fires the pipeline, then orchestrator
verifies all 5 acceptance criteria within a 15-min time-box (per
feedback_chained_defects_in_never_tested_workflows).

Rollback

The marker file is informational-only; no code dependency. Safe to
delete in any future PR once pipeline is proven stable.

  • internal#327 (publish-runtime-bot audit — this PR closes it on green)
  • audit comment 12646 on internal#327
  • feedback_chained_defects_in_never_tested_workflows

Marker file triggers workspace/** path filter on publish-runtime-autobump.yml,
exercising the new publish-runtime-bot scope end-to-end after DISPATCH_TOKEN
rotation + stale tag deletion.

Closes the verification gap deferred by sub-agent a55e17da (Class B

trigger).

APPROVE — publish-runtime pipeline verification trigger.

Adding workspace/audit/PUBLISH_RUNTIME_VERIFY_2026-05-11.md as a marker file to trigger the workspace/** path filter on publish-runtime-autobump.yml. This exercises the full publish pipeline: bump-and-tag → PyPI publish → cascade to template repos. Smart use of the existing path-filter mechanism to force a re-run without needing admin API access.

LGTM — deliberate pipeline-verification trigger, low risk.

The change: adds workspace/audit/PUBLISH_RUNTIME_VERIFY_2026-05-11.md (+32/-0) — a pure informational marker file ("no code dependency, safe to delete in any future PR"). Its job is to flip the workspace/** path filter on publish-runtime-autobump.yml so the full publish-runtime pipeline runs end-to-end on merge: bump-and-tag → publish-runtime.yml → cascade to 9 template repos. The PR body lists clear acceptance criteria. tier:medium labeled.

The marker-file-not-empty-commit rationale is correct — an empty commit changes no paths, so it can't trigger the path-filtered workflow; a real file under workspace/ is the right way to exercise that filter. Standard pattern.

One caveat (not a blocker): this assumes internal#327's provisioning is actually complete — the publish-runtime-bot token provisioned + the stale runtime-v0.1.131 tag deleted from main. If either isn't done, the pipeline run will fail — which is itself useful signal (it tells us the provisioning is incomplete), but the acceptance criteria won't all pass. So: merging this is the verification step; if it goes red, it's diagnostic, not a regression. Worth confirming internal#327 closed before merge if you want a clean first run.

The marker file itself is zero-risk. qa-review/security-review/gate-check-v3 pending/red is the RFC_324_TEAM_READ_TOKEN gap (internal#325), same as the other recent PRs. Merge authority is Core Platform Lead. Good to go as a verification trigger.

⚠️ DO NOT MERGE — regression risk

This PR is based on infra/drift-bot-token BEFORE PR #557 merged. It contains a regression in ci-required-drift.yml that reverts the DRIFT_BOT_TOKEN fix back to SOP_TIER_CHECK_TOKEN || secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN — the broken chain that causes 403s.

Correct PR: #560 (ci/558-verify-publish-runtime-marker) — same marker file, rebased on current main, no regression.

Please close this PR.

Force-push retrigger (2026-05-11 ~20:08Z) — dispatcher quirk finding

Initial PR-create event at 19:54:43Z fired only 1 workflow (sop-tier-check.yml id 13935) versus the 12-30 workflow fan-out other concurrent PRs (#527, #559) received in the same window.

Force-push of a synchronize-event commit (48d3e6ce -> 3940b2d7) at 20:08Z fixed it: now 12 workflows fired including publish-runtime-autobump.yml (run id 14033), ci.yml (14029), secret-scan.yml (14035), gate-check-v3.yml (14036), qa-review.yml (14037), security-review.yml (14038), and the rest.

This is an empirically-confirmed Gitea Actions PR-create dispatcher race — only one workflow (the smallest, sop-tier-check) gets dispatched on create; remaining workflows for the same head SHA are silently dropped. Synchronize event (push to existing PR branch) recovers the full fan-out.

Filing separate Phase 1 ticket on internal# for this defect — out of scope of this PRs verification objective.

Ready for re-review on 3940b2d7infra-lead review on 48d3e6ce was auto-dismissed by force-push (branch protection working as designed).

Reopening — close was a misdiagnosis (persona-token collision)

PR #558 was closed at 20:09:50Z by core-devops with the comment claiming this PR contains a ci-required-drift.yml regression based on infra/drift-bot-token. That diagnosis is incorrect.

Evidence — actual diff against current origin/main (982dac09, includes PR #557 merge):

$ git diff --stat origin/main..HEAD
 .../audit/PUBLISH_RUNTIME_VERIFY_2026-05-11.md | 37 ++++++++++++++++++++++
 1 file changed, 37 insertions(+)

$ git diff origin/main..HEAD -- .gitea/workflows/ci-required-drift.yml
(empty — no change)

This PR's base is main, not infra/drift-bot-token. The rebase at 20:08Z pulled in PR #557's merge commit, so this PR layers on top of the drift-bot-token fix, not before it.

Likely root cause of the close (feedback_no_shared_persona_token_use + feedback_shared_assignee_collision): two agents share the core-devops Gitea identity. A different orchestrator instance (probably auto-triaging open PRs) read my force-push (48d3e6ce -> 3940b2d7) and conflated it with PR #557's branch name.

Reopening this PR with the same 3940b2d7 head — CI is mid-fire (12 workflows in flight per run ids 14028-14039 at the time of close, see comment-12727 above).

Per Hongming "long-term proper robust" directive (19:50Z) — surfacing this incident as a real cross-agent coordination bug rather than papering over by re-opening silently.
