fix(ci): drop the uv flags that block every release - #86
Conversation
Two flags were added to the uv steps and both break the release pull request, which is the one that must not be blocked. --no-build refuses to build a source distribution, and this workspace's own three packages are exactly that. It passed while the runner cache held a wheel for the version in the lock, and fails the moment that version moves, which is what a release does. On the release branch it reports "Building source distributions for coordinode is disabled" and every job stops before its real work. --locked fails when uv.lock disagrees with pyproject, and the release bumps the version in pyproject without regenerating the lock, so it disagrees by construction. With --no-build removed, the same branch then reports "the lockfile needs to be updated". Both were reproduced against that branch with a cold cache, and plain `uv sync --all-packages` was confirmed to install, generate the stubs and run the suite there. The comment left in place records what each flag does and what would have to change before either comes back: the release has to update the lock first.

uv invocations to enforce the committed lockfile by using --locked or --frozen
for uv sync and uv run in lint, unit-test, and integration-test jobs; preserve
unlocked resolution only in the release path.

The comment said `--no-build` held only while a cache carried a wheel for the locked version. That was a guess and it is wrong. Measured on the release branch with a cold cache: with `uv.lock` regenerated so it names the new version, both `--no-build` and `--locked` pass there. Both fail only while the lock still names the old one. So the two flags have a single cause, not two: the release bumps the version in pyproject.toml and leaves the lock behind, forcing a re-resolve. `--locked` refuses the mismatch; `--no-build` refuses the build that re-resolving this workspace's own source packages requires. The comment now says that, states separately what restoring each flag would take, and records why fresh resolution on a pull request is wanted in the first place: a dependency that publishes a breaking release fails here, on a pull request, rather than after the merge that pins it. Also drops three em-dashes from earlier comments in the same file.

The comment said a dependency publishing a breaking release would fail these jobs. It would not. Measured on main with a cold cache: `uv sync` leaves uv.lock untouched and installs the locked versions whenever the lock already satisfies pyproject.toml, so an ordinary pull request tests exactly what is pinned. Fresh resolution happens only where pyproject moves without the lock: a dependency bump, or the release. There it is the behaviour we want, since uv resolves the new set and these jobs exercise it, where `--locked` would refuse to run and report a stale lock instead of saying whether the new version works.

The release pull request cannot pass CI. The cause is two flags I added to the
uv steps in #80, and measuring them properly shows both come from one mistake.
What breaks
The release bumps the version in
pyproject.tomland leavesuv.locknamingthe old one, so uv has to re-resolve. Each flag then refuses a different half of
that re-resolve:
--lockedrefuses the mismatch outright:--no-buildrefuses the build, because re-resolving means building thisworkspace's own three packages, which are source rather than wheels:
Why plain
uv sync, and not a lock regenerated by the releaseFixing the lock would let both flags back in, and we still do not want them.
uv syncfollows the committed lock while that lock satisfiespyproject.toml,so an ordinary pull request installs the locked versions; this is not a CI that
floats to newest on every run. What it does differently is handle the pull
requests that move dependency metadata without regenerating the lock, a
dependency bump or the release: uv resolves the new set and these jobs exercise
it, and we learn whether the new version works.
--lockedwould refuse to runthere and report a stale lock instead, which answers a different question.
Verification
Measured on the release branch with a cold cache, all four combinations:
--locked --no-build--locked--locked --no-buildThe last row is what corrects the record: my first explanation claimed
--no-buildonly ever held because a cache carried a matching wheel. That was aguess, and it is wrong. The restored commands were then run end to end on that
branch:
uv sync --all-packagesinstalls,uv run make protogenerates thestubs,
uv run pytest tests/unit/reports 123 passed and 2 skipped, theembedded pair this job is designed to skip.
How this got in
The flags were added to clear a static-analysis finding, not a problem anyone
had, in a pull request that was not about CI. A reviewer said
--no-buildwouldbreak the workspace install; I tested a case where it happens to work rather
than the one described, called it not reproducible, and left a comment
discouraging its removal. That comment is replaced by one that states what was
measured.
