Per owner direction: no automatic stable releases for now; every release cut from master is a beta prerelease, and a stable release is a deliberate manual action.

What changes

  • release-please.yml on every push to master runs release-please with release-please-config.json, which is now the prerelease config (versioning prerelease, type beta). The PR it opens is the next vX.Y.Z-beta.N; merging publishes a GitHub prerelease, which release-beta.yml already turns into tracedecay-beta-<tag>-<platform> assets.
  • Stable is workflow_dispatch only: gh workflow run release-please.yml --ref master -f channel=stable -f version=X.Y.Z. That selects release-please-config-stable.json (the old default config, which also bumps the TypeScript SDK) and passes release-as. The channel step refuses stable without an exact X.Y.Z.
  • Both channels share .release-please-manifest.json (set to 0.1.0-beta.40, the last published tag). The codex-branch beta channel (beta-release-please.yml, release-please-config-beta.json, .release-please-manifest-beta.json) is deleted; that branch is fully merged into master and no longer a release source, so it's also dropped from ci.yml and the release-PR acceptance gate's base list.
  • tests/release_safety_test.sh now asserts the default config proposes prereleases and the stable config publishes full releases, both draft-until-lockfile.

Evidence

tests/release_safety_test.sh, tests/release_pr_integrity_test.sh, tests/release_drift_check_test.sh, scripts/test-build-mcpb.py, and actionlint on the three touched workflows all pass locally.

Follow-up on merge: close #1556 (stable 0.1.0) and #1555 (codex-branch beta.41); release-please will open the beta.41 PR against master on the next push.

Every push to master now runs release-please with the prerelease config, so the
release PR it opens is the next vX.Y.Z-beta.N and merging it publishes a GitHub
prerelease for release-beta.yml. A stable release requires dispatching
release-please.yml with channel=stable and the exact version, which selects
release-please-config-stable.json. The codex branch beta channel, its config,
and its manifest are gone; one manifest tracks both channels.
