ci(release): protect beta publication on master
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughBeta publication now uses SUPPRESS, PREPARE, and FINALIZE modes. PREPARE pushes a verified SHA-based release branch. FINALIZE verifies the merged SHA, tags, prereleases, and npm packages before publishing. ChangesProtected beta release
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This PR promotes protected release automation without publishing artifacts, but the current merge has concrete readiness gaps: authorization and credential-scope checks are not fully enforced, the documented file-scope gate conflicts with the nine-file promotion, and finalization has bounded registry and branch-freshness concerns. These could weaken release controls or reject the promotion, so merge should wait for alignment or explicit release-owner acceptance. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

explicitly permit the six OpenSpec artifacts in the implementation PR and

loop to require the FINALIZE assignment binds EXPECTED_SHA to the expected_sha
input. Add a mutation case that replaces this assignment with a HEAD-derived
value and assert betaViolations reports a violation, while preserving the

- Around line 242-244: Update the betaViolations validation around the resolve,
prepare, and finalize step lookups to require exact step.condition values for
the PREPARE and FINALIZE predicates, not just matching command content. Ensure
altered or missing if predicates fail validation, and add mutation fixtures
covering each predicate independently.
- Around line 308-315: Update the beta workflow contract checks around
betaViolations and sensitiveShellViolations so NODE_AUTH_TOKEN and
NPM_CONFIG_PROVENANCE are permitted only in the FINALIZE scope, rejecting
job-level or PREPARE declarations. Extend the release-policy fixtures with a
job-level credential declaration and assert that it is reported as a violation.

Align the stated file scope with the nine-file promotion.
The task requires an exact three-file diff, but the PR objective and progress record define a nine-file delivery that includes six OpenSpec artifacts. The parent gate can reject this promotion as out of scope.

Require exact PREPARE and FINALIZE mode predicates.
betaViolations selects both steps from command content but never checks step.condition. Removing or altering either if: predicate can pass the validator. Assert both exact predicates and add mutation fixtures for each.

Sensitive Data Exposure (CWE-522): Insufficiently Protected Credentials
Reachability: Internal · Exploitability: Difficult
Enforce FINALIZE-only npm credential scope.
betaViolations only checks that credentials occur somewhere in the workflow, while PREPARE isolation scans only prepare.source. A job-level or non-FINALIZE declaration can therefore pass the contract and expose NODE_AUTH_TOKEN to PREPARE. Restrict both credentials to FINALIZE, and add a mutation fixture for job-level scope.
