feat(release): publish the bundled distribution manifest and lockfile - #2066
Conversation
scripts/build-distribution.mjs resolves gentle-pi at the release version and the exact pinned Pi with our pinned pnpm, producing gentle-shell-distribution.json (the files installVersion writes, versions and the lockfile sha256) and gentle-shell-distribution-lock.yaml. publish.yml builds them after npm publication, installs from them with a frozen lockfile and runs the launcher on Ubuntu, macOS and Windows, and only then attaches them to the release.
The build and verify commands remove their temporary prefix on success and failure, the launcher check runs in the same filtered environment as our pnpm, and the build retries for about five minutes while a just-published gentle-pi is not yet visible in the registry. pnpm's default non-strict minimum release age is kept and documented (an explicit value turns strict mode on and would refuse the release's own gentle-pi). The distribution and bundled-install tests remove every temporary folder they create.
pnpm prints install and postinstall failures on stdout, so installVersion's error now carries both stream tails and the exit status.
📝 Walkthrough
Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to Update the task status so release operators see the current Windows blocker. The documented verification gate prevents assets from being attached after a failed lane. Pre-merge checks |

after #2064, Windows installs 184 packages but the Gentle AI Go build fails
because published gentle-pi 4.0.0 lacks the deep-path fix from #2035; note that

The T1b status line is stale. It contradicts L11.
Line 21 says the Windows lane is "blocked by the pinned Go download defect fixed in #2064 (rerun after main is merged)". L11 (Line 41) records the later state. After #2064, Windows acquires Go and installs 184 packages. It then fails because the published gentle-pi 4.0.0 does not yet contain the deep-path Go build fix from #2035. Update the T1b status so it names the current blocker.
