# Changelog History before 0.1.0 lives in git — rig grew its version surface (`VERSION`, `rig --version`, the side-by-side `versions/` install layout; #35/#36) on the way to cutting its first release, and this file starts there. ## Unreleased ### Fixed - **A `host=no` box with an `incus` group no longer hands out the bare socket** (#58) — `users apply` consulted the `host=` trait only when group `incus` was ABSENT (die on `host=yes`, skip on `host=no`). When the group was PRESENT the trait was never asked, so a `host=no` or marker-less box that nonetheless carried the group — `box setup-host` ran, then the box was re-bootstrapped with other traits — gave every box-role user a bare `usermod -aG incus`: the socket with no tier behind it, which `incus-user` answers by lazily building an UNHARDENED project under whoever opens it (`incusbr-`, NAT on v4 and v6, no ACL, no `dns.mode=none`, no port isolation). The marker now decides in BOTH directions, through one new pure gate (`assert_marker_hosts_vms`, testable against fixture markers non-root like `assert_marker_human`): the box role applies only where the box CLAIMS to host VMs, so the verdict is identical whether or not the group exists. The machine deliberately does not overrule the marker — but the skip is not silent either: when the group exists and the trait disagrees, the warning names the contradiction and `rig bootstrap` as the repair. On such a box exact-membership convergence now strips box-role users out of `incus`, on the same reasoning: a membership inherited from a previous life is the same half-grant as a freshly added one. - **Dropping the box role revokes through `box`, not behind its back** (#50) — `users apply` converged group `incus` with a bare `gpasswd -d`, the same move it makes for `rig-admin` and `rig`. Those two are rig's; `incus` is box's, and `box revoke` does strictly more with it: it says out loud that supplementary groups are read at LOGIN, so a session the dropped operator already holds keeps the Incus socket until it dies, and hands over `loginctl terminate-user ` as the remedy. rig logged `removed from incus` and moved on, so an operator who dropped someone from the users file and watched apply succeed believed the VM access was gone — and was wrong for as long as that user held a session. Both removal paths (the per-user convergence and the dropped-user sweep) now call `box revoke`, which keeps one owner for the group. Never `--purge`: that deletes the user's boxes, images and project, and destroying someone's running machines is not a convergence step — it stays an explicit admin act. The exit code is not trusted (#12's lesson): a revoke that returns 0 with the membership still standing has not closed the socket, and rig falls back to removing the group itself, as it also does where box is not installed. Every fallback path carries the session warning, because the silence was the bug. ## 0.1.0 — 2026-07-19 ### Fixed - **The release suite accepts the ceremony's own tree** (#44) — `test/release.sh` demanded a literal `## Unreleased` heading in the real `CHANGELOG.md`, extracting non-empty and containing `#32`. All three are false by construction on the `release: X.Y.Z` tree the ceremony's own PR produces (it stamps that heading into `## X.Y.Z — date`), so the first real release PR turned CI red and the flow blocked itself — invisible to both fork rehearsals, which tag a branch (`release.yml` runs; `ci.yml` never does). The guard now asserts what it was for: whatever the TOP `## ` section is — `Unreleased` between releases, the stamped version on and right after one — the exact `changelog_section` the workflow runs extracts it non-empty. The rotting issue-number grep is gone. - **The installer survives an environment with no `$HOME`** (#39) — cloud-init's `runcmd` runs `install.sh` with no `$HOME` set, and under `set -u` the first expansion died with a bash unbound-variable stack instead of an install — found live by box#88's template seed, which pins `HOME=/root` as its own scar. The installer now derives the home from `getent` for the effective user (root included) before any path is built from `$HOME`, and when getent has no answer either it refuses by name. Driven with a shim getent both ways: the derived-home install lands, the no-answer refusal is pinned. (#41 — merged without its entry; restored here at the release gate.) - **Headless credential prompts refuse loudly instead of dying silently** (#42) — the interactive credential prompts (`TS_AUTHKEY` in `bootstrap`, `RUNNER_TOKEN` in `runner install`, `RUNNER_REMOVE_TOKEN` in `runner remove`, and both tokens in `runner repoint` — a site the new no-bare-read test caught after the issue counted three) were bare `read -rsp`: with stdin not a tty (CI, `box exec`, any script), `read` fails, `set -e` ends the run, and the log just *stops* — exit 1, no last word, measured live in the 2026-07-19 release drill. Each prompt now checks for a tty first and dies naming the variable that unblocks an unattended run (`runner remove` also names `--local`), and every `read` is `|| die`-guarded so EOF at a real prompt gets the same courtesy. `db.sh` already held the line here; now all of rig does. ### Added - **Merging a release-labeled PR IS the release — and the release re-arms main itself** (#47) — the rig twin of heavy-duty/box#96, born of the ceremony retro: the tag was a separate, manual, silent-when-forgotten step, and a forgotten tag produces no red X. `release.yml` now fires on pushes to main (fork-sourced ceremony PRs get a read-only token on `pull_request` events), reading the transition from the push itself: `event.before` to the pushed head. A decide step answers four states — release-flow *work* merged under the `release` label (`-dev` endstates, the post-release window) no-ops green with a NOTICE; the two genuinely ambiguous bare states refuse loudly; a true transition then requires a merged, `release`-labeled PR behind the commit (read via the API — the label is the operator's declared intent). Then, in the same job, it API-creates the tag at the merge commit, publishes with the extracted notes — and bumps main to `X.Y.(Z+1)-dev` itself, direct push with a loud open-a-PR fallback, so no follow-up bump PR exists on the paved road. A `GITHUB_TOKEN`-created tag never fires the tag-push trigger, so the paths cannot double-publish — and that tag-push path survives intact as the documented manual fallback and backfill. - **Tagged releases, and an installer that installs them** (#32) — the rig half of the flow designed in heavy-duty/box#83, near-verbatim. A release is a PR, then a tag: the `release: X.Y.Z` PR bumps `VERSION` and stamps this file's Unreleased section with version + date; the merge commit is tagged bare `X.Y.Z` (box's tag scheme — no `v` prefix). `release.yml` turns the tag into the GitHub release — after asserting tag == `VERSION` (mismatch fails loudly and creates nothing) — with that version's section of this file as the body, extracted by the same `changelog_section` the test harness drives. No assets: for a pure-bash tree, GitHub's source tarball for the tag IS the package. `install.sh` now defaults to the **latest release**: the tag is resolved by following the `releases/latest` redirect and reading the `Location` header — no API, no token — and the download is `archive/refs/tags/.tar.gz`. `RIG_REF` picks the other two channels: a tag pins (`refs/tags` outranks a same-named branch), a branch (`RIG_REF=main`) tracks the development tree. Until 0.1.0 is cut the default channel has nothing to resolve and dies saying exactly that, naming `RIG_REF=main` as the way to install today — it never falls back to main silently, because "I installed the latest release" must not quietly mean "I installed whatever main was that second". Step 5 of #32 — pinning `BOX_REF` in the host-installs-box path — stays open until box cuts its next tagged release.
