Motivation

Releases are drafted from this repo but published from a separate central workflow. This moves publishing here: merging the release PR publishes the package and the drafted release once a maintainer approves it.

Changes

• Add a Release workflow that runs when CHANGELOG.md changes on main, with a manual run and a dry run as a fallback
• It runs when the top CHANGELOG.md version has no published release, so ordinary changelog edits are skipped; the draft release is checked after approval
• Tests run and the sdist and wheel are built with uv without any publishing rights; the build fails if the pyproject.toml version doesn't match CHANGELOG.md
• Publishing waits for approval on the release environment, then uploads the built files to PyPI through trusted publishing (no API token stored) and attaches them to the GitHub Release
• The draft release is pinned to the merged commit before it is published, so the tag lands on what was built
• A dry run now only tests and builds; it no longer uploads to TestPyPI

How to test

• Run the Release workflow manually with dry_run checked: detect and build pass, the dist artifact holds the sdist and wheel, Publish is skipped
• Merge the next release PR and approve the release deployment: the version is on PyPI, the release has the sdist and wheel attached and its tag on the merge commit

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Chores
  • Releases can be triggered by changelog updates on the default branch or by a manual request. Runs from other branches are rejected.
  • Release checks verify the project version against the changelog, run tests, build distribution packages, and save them as an artifact.
  • Dry runs can proceed without a pending release and stop after building. Automatic runs skip publishing when no release is pending; manual publishing runs fail if the latest changelog version is already released.
  • Publishing runs upload packages to PyPI and GitHub Releases, then publish the GitHub release.

Walkthrough

Adds a GitHub Actions release workflow. It detects pending releases, validates the project version, runs tests, builds distributions, and publishes them to PyPI and GitHub Releases unless dry-run mode is enabled.

Changes: Release workflow

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Release triggers and detection .github/workflows/release.yml	The workflow starts on CHANGELOG.md changes or manual dispatch. It rejects runs from non-default branches and handles missing pending releases based on the trigger and dry-run setting.
Version validation and distribution build .github/workflows/release.yml	The build job checks the project version against the detected changelog version, runs tests, builds distributions on Python 3.13, and uploads them.
PyPI and GitHub publication .github/workflows/release.yml	When dry-run mode is disabled, the publish job downloads the build artifacts, uploads them to the GitHub release, publishes them to PyPI with trusted publishing, and publishes the GitHub release.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

This adds a release workflow that publishes to PyPI and GitHub Releases after maintainer approval. No unresolved merge-blocking issue is evident from the supplied review context. Run the planned dry run and an approved release to confirm the workflow in practice.

Explanation

The title "Add release workflow" matches the main change. The PR adds .github/workflows/release.yml, which detects a pending release, runs tests, builds the sdist and wheel, and publishes to PyPI and GitHub Releases.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the repository template. Motivation, Changes, and How to test are filled in with specific content. The Images and GIFs section is absent. That section applies to UI changes, and this PR is a CI workflow, so the omission is not critical. The How to test items are concrete, and the author states they are planned checks.

Give the detect job access to draft releases

The resolver uses the job’s read-only token. GitHub can omit the matching draft from its release list. A push then skips the build, and a non-dry-run dispatch fails, so neither can publish the release.

Suggested fix

   detect:
     name: Detect pending release
     runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    permissions:
+      contents: write
@@
-      # dispatch: a real run needs an unreleased version; a dry run doesn't. detect can't see drafts
-      # (read-only token), so the publish job confirms the draft after approval.
+      # dispatch: a real run needs an unreleased version; a dry run doesn't.

Update the detect job’s token permissions so the resolver step can see matching draft releases, using the minimum permission required for that visibility. Keep the change scoped to the detect job so other jobs retain their existing permissions.

On the outside-diff comment about detect needing access to drafts: outdated. Since railsware/github-actions#80, resolve-pending-release reads only published releases (getReleaseByTag), so it works with the read-only token: the top CHANGELOG.md version is pending until it is released. The draft is checked after approval, in Check GitHub release.
