ci: publish the next patch on every push that changes a file the package ships - #79
The release workflow published only when package.json named a version npm did not hold. No merge since 0.8.2 raised that version, so every release run since then (39565830449, 39587145308, 39982533286) read 0.8.2, found it on npm, skipped "Publish to npm" and went green. Master holds the Capacitor, sql.js, IndexedDB, exporter and resolver fixes of #68, #76 and #77, and none of them is on npm.
With this change every push to master runs the release, and it publishes whenever a file the package ships changed since the newest published version:
scripts/release-version.mjs decides before anything is installed. Only the run of master's head decides (read with git ls-remote): a run of a commit master has moved past publishes nothing, since that commit's own run publishes its changes.
The newest published version is the higher of npm's latest and the newest v<x.y.z> tag; the commit it was published from is its tag's, or npm's gitHead for it. When npm already holds the version the run would publish, the decision is made again from that version's commit.
When package.json names a higher version, that version is published, as before. Otherwise a change to src/, package.json, README.md, LICENSE, the two TypeScript configurations or the two build scripts publishes the newest version with its patch raised by one. A push that changed none of those publishes nothing. A commit whose history lacks the published commit fails the run instead of skipping it, so a stall cannot sit behind a green run.
The version is written into the run's own checkout (npm version --no-git-tag-version); nothing is committed to master. The publish goes through the trusted publisher with --provenance, then the GitHub release tags the published commit, with that version's CHANGELOG section as its notes, or the list of commits since the previous version.
When no tag names the newest published version (a run that published and failed before its release), the next run makes that release and tag at the commit it was published from, beside any version it publishes.
Only master publishes; a run started by hand on another branch is skipped. The checkout keeps no credential, since npm install runs dependencies' scripts in it.
The spec, tests/releaseVersion.spec.ts, runs the decision against real git repositories made for each test and a registry stub that answers as npm does. Each round of specs was pushed alone first, so CI shows it failing before the code that passes it.
CHANGELOG.md's Unreleased notes are headed 0.8.3, the version this merge publishes, and RELEASING.md, CONTRIBUTING.md and README.md describe the new flow.
After the merge, the release run on the merge commit should publish 0.8.3 with the merge commit as its gitHead.
The PR changes releases from a package.json-only check to a repository- and registry-aware decision process that publishes the next patch for shipped changes, safely skips or fails stale cases, and creates provenance-backed GitHub releases; it also adds comprehensive real-git integration tests and updates release documentation.
File-Level Changes

Details
Files
Reworked release planning to derive the next publishable version from repository history and npm state rather than only package.json.
Resolve the newest published version from npm latest and reachable version tags.
Use npm gitHead or the corresponding tag to identify the published base commit.
Publish an explicit higher package version, otherwise increment the patch only when shipped files changed.
Skip stale, already-published, non-shipping, and non-master runs; fail when published history cannot be verified.
Handle numeric semver comparison, patch rollover, registry errors, and missing published versions.
Added integration-style coverage for release decisions using temporary git repositories and an npm-compatible registry stub.
Cover shipped-file detection, version selection, tag/npm commit resolution, stale reruns, history mismatches, and registry failures.
Verify semver ordering and patch increments beyond version nine.
Assert release notes exclude changes to files the package does not ship.

Walkthrough
The pull request adds a release planner that uses npm versions, Git history, and shipped-file changes to decide whether to publish. The release workflow uses the plan to publish packages and create GitHub releases. Tests and documentation describe and verify the updated process.
Changes: Automated release planning and publishing
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Release planning and validation scripts/release-version.mjs, tests/releaseVersion.spec.ts
The planner selects a version from npm metadata, Git tags, the package manifest, and shipped-file changes. It generates release notes and reports its decision through GitHub Actions outputs and summaries. Tests cover version ordering, repository history, registry responses, and release decisions.
Pushes to master trigger the workflow, and manual runs publish only from master. When the planner requests publication, the workflow installs dependencies, tests, builds, updates the checkout’s package version, and publishes with provenance. It creates a GitHub release when the planner supplies a release output.
Release documentation and changelog CHANGELOG.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, README.md, RELEASING.md
The release guidance describes automatic patch releases for shipped changes and version bumps with changelog sections for minor or major releases.

High-Level Assessment
The following are alternative approaches to this PR:
1. Mock git commands
➕ Faster tests with simpler fixture setup.
➖ Less confidence in ancestry, tag reachability, and older-checkout behavior.
Recommendation: Keep real git repositories for history-sensitive decisions and stub only npm for deterministic responses. Treat this as a test-first commit: the referenced planner and workflow changes must arrive before the release behavior works.

releaseVersion.spec.ts imports ../scripts/release-version.mjs, but that module is absent from
this branch. Vitest includes the spec in both CI test runs and the release workflow's test step, so
module resolution fails before any of its tests can run.
+import { compareVersions, planFromRepository, raisePatch, releaseNotes } from '../scripts/release-version.mjs';
Evidence
The spec imports the missing module; Vitest includes all matching specs under tests, and both
workflows run Vitest. The branch's scripts directory contains build-cjs.mjs, fix-esm-imports.mjs,
test-sync-manager.mjs and verify-package.mjs, but no release-version.mjs.

Tip of the day
💡 Did you know, you can enable the Remediation agent and Qodo fixes findings in a dedicated fix PR
This helper creates only lightweight tags. An annotated tag is a separate Git object, so these tests do not check whether the release decision resolves it to the tagged commit. Add an annotated-tag success case and a mismatch or rejection case.
Based on learnings, release verification tests should cover both tag types and the mismatch case.

…e the package ships
The release workflow published only when package.json named a version npm
did not hold, so the fixes merged after 0.8.2 never reached npm.
scripts/release-version.mjs now decides before anything is installed: the
newest published version is the higher of npm's latest and the newest
v<x.y.z> tag the commit contains, and a change to what the package ships
since the commit it was published from publishes that version with its
patch raised by one, or package.json's version when that is higher. The
version is written into the run's checkout alone; nothing is committed to
master. A run of an older commit publishes nothing, and a commit whose
history lacks the published one fails the run.
The spec also reads an annotated tag as the commit it names.

…no tag names, and make a published version's missing release
A re-run of an older commit counted only the tags that commit contains, so
with npm's latest lagging behind a newer commit's release it passed over
the version npm already held and published its older code as the next
patch. The decision now counts from every v tag, and when npm holds the
version it would publish, it decides again from that version's commit,
which tells an older commit it is older.
A run that published and failed before its GitHub release left no way to
make the release: the re-run found the version published from its own
commit and did nothing. When no tag names the newest published version,
the run now makes its release and tag at the commit it was published from.
…also makes the missing release of an untagged published version
A run of an older commit could still publish older code when npm held a
newer version that neither npm's latest nor a tag named while the next
patch was free. The decision now reads master's head with git ls-remote
(the repository is public, so no credential is needed) and publishes
nothing from a commit master has moved past, since that commit's own run
publishes its changes; a commit master's head does not hold fails the run.
The repair of a published version with no tag was made only when the run
published nothing. It is now its own output and workflow step, so a run
that publishes the next version also makes the missing release of the one
before it.
Qodo and CodeRabbit on the first head (7b8b007): the spec's module was missing. That was the spec pushed alone on purpose; the module came in f90ac20, and Qodo marks the finding resolved.
CodeRabbit's nitpick on annotated tags: taken. The repository holds 3 annotated v tags among its 51, so the spec reads one as the commit it names, and the case of a tag naming a commit outside this history uses an annotated tag.
CodeRabbit on release.yml: the checkout kept the job's write token where npm install runs dependencies' scripts. Taken in 2cfdc0d (persist-credentials: false); no later step needs it.
An independent Codex review of f90ac20 (gpt-6.1-sol, reasoning high) found two defects:
P1: a re-run of an older commit counted only the tags that commit contains, so with npm's latest lagging it could publish the older code as the next patch.
P2: a run that published and failed before its GitHub release left no way to make that release.
Specs first (27347e0; CI run 40199690838 failed exactly those six, 1950 passed), then the fix (8c69aac): every v tag counts, a version npm holds is decided from again, and a missing release is made at the commit it was published from.
A Codex fold check of that fix (gpt-6-luna, reasoning high) found the fix incomplete: an older commit could still publish when npm held a newer version that neither its latest nor a tag named, and a run that published the next version did not repair the untagged one before it. Specs first (614471b), then the fix (a6530a6): only the run of master's head publishes (git ls-remote, no credential on a public repository), and the repair is its own output and step, made beside a publish too.
A second Codex fold check (gpt-6-luna, reasoning high) of a6530a6: the repair is closed for every input it tried. It raised two more points:
Taken: a version npm holds that neither its latest nor a tag names, above a skipped patch (published by hand, say), was invisible to the decision, so master's head could publish a lower version over newer code. Spec first (2f0face), then the fix (6170469): the decision counts from every version npm holds, read from npm's abbreviated package document (no README in it; it parses as strict JSON, read 19:0x UTC).
Answered, no change: a run that read master's head as its own commit and publishes while a newer push lands does what the queue intends. It publishes its own commit, and the newer push's run, queued behind it (queue: max), counts from that version's tag and publishes the newer changes next.
Sourcery: its review budget was spent on the first push and its later checks read skipped; recorded as missing.
CodeRabbit on the final head: its summary has read "Reviewing" for 2cfdc0d through 6170469 since 19:06 UTC, 49 minutes with no review posted, so it is recorded as missing for that head. Qodo reviewed 6170469 with no bugs, every check is green, and no thread is open.
