Changelog

History before 0.1.0 lives in git — rig grew its version surface (VERSION, rig --version, the side-by-side versions/<v> 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-<uid>, 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.

• 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.

• 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/<tag>.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.
