ci(release): gate stable releases behind esengine approval#3528
Merged
Conversation
Stable publish jobs (CLI goreleaser, npm tag push, desktop tag/stable dispatch) now run in the `release` environment, which requires esengine's approval before anything goes public. Canary dispatches use the open `canary` environment so any maintainer can self-serve a pre-release. Adds docs/RELEASING.md documenting the trunk+tags model, channels, and who can ship what.

Locks down who can publish what, the way we agreed: maintainers can cut canary freely; only esengine can ship

release(esengine = required reviewer) andcanary(open).releaseenvironment, so a stable release — even one a maintainer starts by pushing av*/npm-v*/desktop-v*tag — pauses in the Actions UI until esengine approves.canaryenvironment → any maintainer (write access) self-serves a pre-release, no approval.Gating per workflow
