feat: cast — the Coolify executor, extracted from the infra state repo
Public tool, private state. cast holds no hostnames, no bindings, no
secrets: it joins a product repo's .infra/ manifest with a state directory
you point it at, and makes Coolify match.
Extracted from heavy-duty/infra, which was half tool and half state — the
inconsistency that made it impossible to say whether "infra" named a CLI
or a runbook. rig builds the boxes; cast fills them; infra is what they
are filled with.
Two changes were required to make it genuinely stateless and publishable:
- The implicit cwd contract (environments.yaml / secrets/ / .coolify.env
resolved against the working directory, silently reading the wrong file
from the wrong place) is now an explicit --state <dir> / $CAST_STATE.
- BANNED_IN_PROD — a hardcoded list of one product's ALLOW_* flags, the
only product knowledge in the executor — becomes the generic, operator-
owned environments.<env>.forbidden_var_patterns. The guard now lives in
private state, so a product-side change cannot lower its own guard, and
it is a pattern rather than a list, so it catches unforeseen siblings.
Age identities resolve as $CAST_AGE_KEY_FILE_<ENV> then
~/.config/cast/age-<env>.key — which is the entire attended-vs-unattended
apply mechanism, with no environment names known to the tool.
Instance identity (org names, the GitHub App name, founder domains) is out
of the fixtures and out of register-github-app.sh, which took APP_NAME and
ORG as arguments rather than baking them in.
69 tests green; bin/cast + curl installer mirror rig's shape.

feat: release flow — tagged releases with a prebuilt dist asset (#96)
The cast half of the flow designed in heavy-duty/box#83, aligned with
box#90 and rig#40, plus the piece unique to cast: a prebuilt release
asset, because cast is the one repo where the source tarball is not the
package.
- CHANGELOG.md (box's format) with this PR's entry under Unreleased;
feature PRs land their entry as part of the PR.
- `cast --version` / `-V` answers with package.json's version, read
relative to the compiled module so a source checkout and an installed
prebuilt tree agree.
- release.yml, on EVERY tag push (no shape filter — a mismatched tag
must fail the assert loudly, not be pattern-skipped): asserts tag ==
package.json version FIRST, extracts that version's changelog section
(.github/scripts/release-notes.sh, shared with the tests; missing or
empty refuses), builds once (npm ci && npm run build && npm prune
--omit=dev), stages bin/ dist/ node_modules/ package.json as
cast-X.Y.Z/ and attaches cast-X.Y.Z.tgz to `gh release create
--verify-tag`. No tests here — ci.yml gated the merge commit, and the
suite needs age.
- install.sh grows the three channels: default = the latest release's
asset (tag resolved off the releases/latest redirect Location — no
API, no token; failure dies loudly naming CAST_REF=main, never a
silent fallback), CAST_REF=<tag> = pinned (asset first, source
fallback), CAST_REF=main = dev build-from-source. npm is required
only on the source path, and a prebuilt tree is sanity-checked
(dist/, node_modules/) before $DEST is replaced.
- test/release.test.ts drives it all offline: --version, the extraction
against fixtures (0.7.0 never matches 0.7.0-rc1) and the real
changelog, and REAL install.sh runs through all three channels with a
stub curl and a poisoned npm — including the loud no-releases refusal
with no $DEST side effects.

refactor: rescope to versioned installations — the release flow moves out
Maintainer direction: this PR's one goal is the versioned layout, the same
one box#79 built and rig#36 ported — the release flow (tags, release.yml,
prebuilt assets, CHANGELOG) is its own PR later, the shape rig#40 has.
So: release.yml, changelog-section.sh, CHANGELOG.md and the asset-aware
installer channels leave this branch, and in their place cast gets the
family layout for real:
- install.sh lands each build at $DEST/versions/<package.json version>,
'current' names the default (atomic rename flips), $BINDIR/cast points
through it. Converging no-op on an installed version (nothing rebuilt),
CAST_REINSTALL=1 replaces, a new version installs beside and becomes
default. Pre-versioning flat installs migrate in place, bit for bit.
CAST_INSTALL_SOURCE=<dir|tarball> installs locally (CI/tests, rig's
RIG_INSTALL_SOURCE precedent). No flip gate: box refuses under live
boxes, rig warns on a converged host — cast is an API client, a flip
strands nothing, 'cast use <old>' is one command away.
- bin/cast grows the layout verbs in bash (they must work when dist/ is
broken): versions (marks current+running), use (atomic flip, then
asserts the chain ANSWERS the new version), uninstall (consent gate,
CURRENT guard, dangling-current guard, ends with the absence assert).
valid_version/pkg_version are byte-identical copies in both files; a
test diffs them so the gates cannot drift.
- cast --version stays: package.json is the single source of truth,
printed with the install root, rig-style.
- ci.yml gains the install job: the real installer, from this checkout,
layout asserted, converge no-op asserted, uninstall --all asserted
absent — the box CI precedent.
- Tests drive the REAL install.sh and bin/cast offline (npm shim, local
source): the layout, the chain answering end to end, no-op/reinstall/
side-by-side/migration semantics, the hostile-version gates, refs/heads
download, every uninstall refusal.

# $DEST/versions/<version>/ one full tree per installed version
# $DEST/current -> versions/<version> the default version
# $BINDIR/cast -> $DEST/current/bin/cast the PATH entry
feat: versioned installs — tagged releases with a prebuilt dist asset (#96)
cast gets the family's release flow (box#83's shape), plus the piece
unique to cast: because cast compiles, the source tarball is not the
package — so release.yml builds ONCE in CI and attaches cast-X.Y.Z.tgz,
and the installer's default channel extracts that asset instead of
running npm ci + tsc on the operator's machine.
- cast --version: package.json is the single source of truth (no VERSION
file); prints the install root too, rig-style.
- CHANGELOG.md with Unreleased; release notes are the curated section
(scripts/changelog-section.sh), never the auto-generated PR list.
- release.yml on a bare X.Y.Z tag: assert tag == package.json version,
check + build + test, prune, tar the runnable tree, gh release create.
- install.sh channels: unset → latest release asset (resolved via the
releases/latest redirect — no API, no token); CAST_REF=X.Y.Z → that
tag's asset; CAST_REF=<branch> → build-from-source, the old path.
- Tests drive the REAL install.sh offline via curl/npm PATH shims (all
three channels, plus the broken-asset and no-release refusals), and
the real changelog-section.sh against fixture changelogs.

feat: cast — the Coolify executor, extracted from the infra state repo
Public tool, private state. cast holds no hostnames, no bindings, no
secrets: it joins a product repo's .infra/ manifest with a state directory
you point it at, and makes Coolify match.
Extracted from heavy-duty/infra, which was half tool and half state — the
inconsistency that made it impossible to say whether "infra" named a CLI
or a runbook. rig builds the boxes; cast fills them; infra is what they
are filled with.
Two changes were required to make it genuinely stateless and publishable:
- The implicit cwd contract (environments.yaml / secrets/ / .coolify.env
resolved against the working directory, silently reading the wrong file
from the wrong place) is now an explicit --state <dir> / $CAST_STATE.
- BANNED_IN_PROD — a hardcoded list of one product's ALLOW_* flags, the
only product knowledge in the executor — becomes the generic, operator-
owned environments.<env>.forbidden_var_patterns. The guard now lives in
private state, so a product-side change cannot lower its own guard, and
it is a pattern rather than a list, so it catches unforeseen siblings.
Age identities resolve as $CAST_AGE_KEY_FILE_<ENV> then
~/.config/cast/age-<env>.key — which is the entire attended-vs-unattended
apply mechanism, with no environment names known to the tool.
Instance identity (org names, the GitHub App name, founder domains) is out
of the fixtures and out of register-github-app.sh, which took APP_NAME and
ORG as arguments rather than baking them in.
69 tests green; bin/cast + curl installer mirror rig's shape.

feat: cast — the Coolify executor, extracted from the infra state repo
Public tool, private state. cast holds no hostnames, no bindings, no
secrets: it joins a product repo's .infra/ manifest with a state directory
you point it at, and makes Coolify match.
Extracted from heavy-duty/infra, which was half tool and half state — the
inconsistency that made it impossible to say whether "infra" named a CLI
or a runbook. rig builds the boxes; cast fills them; infra is what they
are filled with.
Two changes were required to make it genuinely stateless and publishable:
- The implicit cwd contract (environments.yaml / secrets/ / .coolify.env
resolved against the working directory, silently reading the wrong file
from the wrong place) is now an explicit --state <dir> / $CAST_STATE.
- BANNED_IN_PROD — a hardcoded list of one product's ALLOW_* flags, the
only product knowledge in the executor — becomes the generic, operator-
owned environments.<env>.forbidden_var_patterns. The guard now lives in
private state, so a product-side change cannot lower its own guard, and
it is a pattern rather than a list, so it catches unforeseen siblings.
Age identities resolve as $CAST_AGE_KEY_FILE_<ENV> then
~/.config/cast/age-<env>.key — which is the entire attended-vs-unattended
apply mechanism, with no environment names known to the tool.
Instance identity (org names, the GitHub App name, founder domains) is out
of the fixtures and out of register-github-app.sh, which took APP_NAME and
ORG as arguments rather than baking them in.
69 tests green; bin/cast + curl installer mirror rig's shape.

# --- prerequisites -----------------------------------------------------------
refactor: rescope to versioned installations — the release flow moves out
Maintainer direction: this PR's one goal is the versioned layout, the same
one box#79 built and rig#36 ported — the release flow (tags, release.yml,
prebuilt assets, CHANGELOG) is its own PR later, the shape rig#40 has.
So: release.yml, changelog-section.sh, CHANGELOG.md and the asset-aware
installer channels leave this branch, and in their place cast gets the
family layout for real:
- install.sh lands each build at $DEST/versions/<package.json version>,
'current' names the default (atomic rename flips), $BINDIR/cast points
through it. Converging no-op on an installed version (nothing rebuilt),
CAST_REINSTALL=1 replaces, a new version installs beside and becomes
default. Pre-versioning flat installs migrate in place, bit for bit.
CAST_INSTALL_SOURCE=<dir|tarball> installs locally (CI/tests, rig's
RIG_INSTALL_SOURCE precedent). No flip gate: box refuses under live
boxes, rig warns on a converged host — cast is an API client, a flip
strands nothing, 'cast use <old>' is one command away.
- bin/cast grows the layout verbs in bash (they must work when dist/ is
broken): versions (marks current+running), use (atomic flip, then
asserts the chain ANSWERS the new version), uninstall (consent gate,
CURRENT guard, dangling-current guard, ends with the absence assert).
valid_version/pkg_version are byte-identical copies in both files; a
test diffs them so the gates cannot drift.
- cast --version stays: package.json is the single source of truth,
printed with the install root, rig-style.
- ci.yml gains the install job: the real installer, from this checkout,
layout asserted, converge no-op asserted, uninstall --all asserted
absent — the box CI precedent.
- Tests drive the REAL install.sh and bin/cast offline (npm shim, local
source): the layout, the chain answering end to end, no-op/reinstall/
side-by-side/migration semantics, the hostile-version gates, refs/heads
download, every uninstall refusal.

# curl only when something must be downloaded — a local CAST_INSTALL_SOURCE
# needs none, which is what lets the test suite drive REAL installs offline.
feat: release flow — tagged releases with a prebuilt dist asset (#96)
The cast half of the flow designed in heavy-duty/box#83, aligned with
box#90 and rig#40, plus the piece unique to cast: a prebuilt release
asset, because cast is the one repo where the source tarball is not the
package.
- CHANGELOG.md (box's format) with this PR's entry under Unreleased;
feature PRs land their entry as part of the PR.
- `cast --version` / `-V` answers with package.json's version, read
relative to the compiled module so a source checkout and an installed
prebuilt tree agree.
- release.yml, on EVERY tag push (no shape filter — a mismatched tag
must fail the assert loudly, not be pattern-skipped): asserts tag ==
package.json version FIRST, extracts that version's changelog section
(.github/scripts/release-notes.sh, shared with the tests; missing or
empty refuses), builds once (npm ci && npm run build && npm prune
--omit=dev), stages bin/ dist/ node_modules/ package.json as
cast-X.Y.Z/ and attaches cast-X.Y.Z.tgz to `gh release create
--verify-tag`. No tests here — ci.yml gated the merge commit, and the
suite needs age.
- install.sh grows the three channels: default = the latest release's
asset (tag resolved off the releases/latest redirect Location — no
API, no token; failure dies loudly naming CAST_REF=main, never a
silent fallback), CAST_REF=<tag> = pinned (asset first, source
fallback), CAST_REF=main = dev build-from-source. npm is required
only on the source path, and a prebuilt tree is sanity-checked
(dist/, node_modules/) before $DEST is replaced.
- test/release.test.ts drives it all offline: --version, the extraction
against fixtures (0.7.0 never matches 0.7.0-rc1) and the real
changelog, and REAL install.sh runs through all three channels with a
stub curl and a poisoned npm — including the loud no-releases refusal
with no $DEST side effects.

# No CAST_REF → the latest release. While no release exists (cast cuts its

# with the way out — never silently fall back to main: "I installed the

refactor: rescope to versioned installations — the release flow moves out
Maintainer direction: this PR's one goal is the versioned layout, the same
one box#79 built and rig#36 ported — the release flow (tags, release.yml,
prebuilt assets, CHANGELOG) is its own PR later, the shape rig#40 has.
So: release.yml, changelog-section.sh, CHANGELOG.md and the asset-aware
installer channels leave this branch, and in their place cast gets the
family layout for real:
- install.sh lands each build at $DEST/versions/<package.json version>,
'current' names the default (atomic rename flips), $BINDIR/cast points
through it. Converging no-op on an installed version (nothing rebuilt),
CAST_REINSTALL=1 replaces, a new version installs beside and becomes
default. Pre-versioning flat installs migrate in place, bit for bit.
CAST_INSTALL_SOURCE=<dir|tarball> installs locally (CI/tests, rig's
RIG_INSTALL_SOURCE precedent). No flip gate: box refuses under live
boxes, rig warns on a converged host — cast is an API client, a flip
strands nothing, 'cast use <old>' is one command away.
- bin/cast grows the layout verbs in bash (they must work when dist/ is
broken): versions (marks current+running), use (atomic flip, then
asserts the chain ANSWERS the new version), uninstall (consent gate,
CURRENT guard, dangling-current guard, ends with the absence assert).
valid_version/pkg_version are byte-identical copies in both files; a
test diffs them so the gates cannot drift.
- cast --version stays: package.json is the single source of truth,
printed with the install root, rig-style.
- ci.yml gains the install job: the real installer, from this checkout,
layout asserted, converge no-op asserted, uninstall --all asserted
absent — the box CI precedent.
- Tests drive the REAL install.sh and bin/cast offline (npm shim, local
source): the layout, the chain answering end to end, no-op/reinstall/
side-by-side/migration semantics, the hostile-version gates, refs/heads
download, every uninstall refusal.

feat: cast — the Coolify executor, extracted from the infra state repo
Public tool, private state. cast holds no hostnames, no bindings, no
secrets: it joins a product repo's .infra/ manifest with a state directory
you point it at, and makes Coolify match.
Extracted from heavy-duty/infra, which was half tool and half state — the
inconsistency that made it impossible to say whether "infra" named a CLI
or a runbook. rig builds the boxes; cast fills them; infra is what they
are filled with.
Two changes were required to make it genuinely stateless and publishable:
- The implicit cwd contract (environments.yaml / secrets/ / .coolify.env
resolved against the working directory, silently reading the wrong file
from the wrong place) is now an explicit --state <dir> / $CAST_STATE.
- BANNED_IN_PROD — a hardcoded list of one product's ALLOW_* flags, the
only product knowledge in the executor — becomes the generic, operator-
owned environments.<env>.forbidden_var_patterns. The guard now lives in
private state, so a product-side change cannot lower its own guard, and
it is a pattern rather than a list, so it catches unforeseen siblings.
Age identities resolve as $CAST_AGE_KEY_FILE_<ENV> then
~/.config/cast/age-<env>.key — which is the entire attended-vs-unattended
apply mechanism, with no environment names known to the tool.
Instance identity (org names, the GitHub App name, founder domains) is out
of the fixtures and out of register-github-app.sh, which took APP_NAME and
ORG as arguments rather than baking them in.
69 tests green; bin/cast + curl installer mirror rig's shape.

feat: versioned installs — tagged releases with a prebuilt dist asset (#96)
cast gets the family's release flow (box#83's shape), plus the piece
unique to cast: because cast compiles, the source tarball is not the
package — so release.yml builds ONCE in CI and attaches cast-X.Y.Z.tgz,
and the installer's default channel extracts that asset instead of
running npm ci + tsc on the operator's machine.
- cast --version: package.json is the single source of truth (no VERSION
file); prints the install root too, rig-style.
- CHANGELOG.md with Unreleased; release notes are the curated section
(scripts/changelog-section.sh), never the auto-generated PR list.
- release.yml on a bare X.Y.Z tag: assert tag == package.json version,
check + build + test, prune, tar the runnable tree, gh release create.
- install.sh channels: unset → latest release asset (resolved via the
releases/latest redirect — no API, no token); CAST_REF=X.Y.Z → that
tag's asset; CAST_REF=<branch> → build-from-source, the old path.
- Tests drive the REAL install.sh offline via curl/npm PATH shims (all
three channels, plus the broken-asset and no-release refusals), and
the real changelog-section.sh against fixture changelogs.

# --- acquire the tree --------------------------------------------------------
feat: release flow — tagged releases with a prebuilt dist asset (#96)
The cast half of the flow designed in heavy-duty/box#83, aligned with
box#90 and rig#40, plus the piece unique to cast: a prebuilt release
asset, because cast is the one repo where the source tarball is not the
package.
- CHANGELOG.md (box's format) with this PR's entry under Unreleased;
feature PRs land their entry as part of the PR.
- `cast --version` / `-V` answers with package.json's version, read
relative to the compiled module so a source checkout and an installed
prebuilt tree agree.
- release.yml, on EVERY tag push (no shape filter — a mismatched tag
must fail the assert loudly, not be pattern-skipped): asserts tag ==
package.json version FIRST, extracts that version's changelog section
(.github/scripts/release-notes.sh, shared with the tests; missing or
empty refuses), builds once (npm ci && npm run build && npm prune
--omit=dev), stages bin/ dist/ node_modules/ package.json as
cast-X.Y.Z/ and attaches cast-X.Y.Z.tgz to `gh release create
--verify-tag`. No tests here — ci.yml gated the merge commit, and the
suite needs age.
- install.sh grows the three channels: default = the latest release's
asset (tag resolved off the releases/latest redirect Location — no
API, no token; failure dies loudly naming CAST_REF=main, never a
silent fallback), CAST_REF=<tag> = pinned (asset first, source
fallback), CAST_REF=main = dev build-from-source. npm is required
only on the source path, and a prebuilt tree is sanity-checked
(dist/, node_modules/) before $DEST is replaced.
- test/release.test.ts drives it all offline: --version, the extraction
against fixtures (0.7.0 never matches 0.7.0-rc1) and the real
changelog, and REAL install.sh runs through all three channels with a
stub curl and a poisoned npm — including the loud no-releases refusal
with no $DEST side effects.

feat: cast — the Coolify executor, extracted from the infra state repo
Public tool, private state. cast holds no hostnames, no bindings, no
secrets: it joins a product repo's .infra/ manifest with a state directory
you point it at, and makes Coolify match.
Extracted from heavy-duty/infra, which was half tool and half state — the
inconsistency that made it impossible to say whether "infra" named a CLI
or a runbook. rig builds the boxes; cast fills them; infra is what they
are filled with.
Two changes were required to make it genuinely stateless and publishable:
- The implicit cwd contract (environments.yaml / secrets/ / .coolify.env
resolved against the working directory, silently reading the wrong file
from the wrong place) is now an explicit --state <dir> / $CAST_STATE.
- BANNED_IN_PROD — a hardcoded list of one product's ALLOW_* flags, the
only product knowledge in the executor — becomes the generic, operator-
owned environments.<env>.forbidden_var_patterns. The guard now lives in
private state, so a product-side change cannot lower its own guard, and
it is a pattern rather than a list, so it catches unforeseen siblings.
Age identities resolve as $CAST_AGE_KEY_FILE_<ENV> then
~/.config/cast/age-<env>.key — which is the entire attended-vs-unattended
apply mechanism, with no environment names known to the tool.
Instance identity (org names, the GitHub App name, founder domains) is out
of the fixtures and out of register-github-app.sh, which took APP_NAME and
ORG as arguments rather than baking them in.
69 tests green; bin/cast + curl installer mirror rig's shape.

refactor: rescope to versioned installations — the release flow moves out

one box#79 built and rig#36 ported — the release flow (tags, release.yml,
prebuilt assets, CHANGELOG) is its own PR later, the shape rig#40 has.
So: release.yml, changelog-section.sh, CHANGELOG.md and the asset-aware
installer channels leave this branch, and in their place cast gets the
family layout for real:
- install.sh lands each build at $DEST/versions/<package.json version>,
'current' names the default (atomic rename flips), $BINDIR/cast points
through it. Converging no-op on an installed version (nothing rebuilt),
CAST_REINSTALL=1 replaces, a new version installs beside and becomes
default. Pre-versioning flat installs migrate in place, bit for bit.
CAST_INSTALL_SOURCE=<dir|tarball> installs locally (CI/tests, rig's
RIG_INSTALL_SOURCE precedent). No flip gate: box refuses under live
boxes, rig warns on a converged host — cast is an API client, a flip
strands nothing, 'cast use <old>' is one command away.
- bin/cast grows the layout verbs in bash (they must work when dist/ is

prebuilt tree agree.
- release.yml, on EVERY tag push (no shape filter — a mismatched tag
must fail the assert loudly, not be pattern-skipped): asserts tag ==
package.json version FIRST, extracts that version's changelog section
(.github/scripts/release-notes.sh, shared with the tests; missing or
empty refuses), builds once (npm ci && npm run build && npm prune
--omit=dev), stages bin/ dist/ node_modules/ package.json as
cast-X.Y.Z/ and attaches cast-X.Y.Z.tgz to `gh release create
--verify-tag`. No tests here — ci.yml gated the merge commit, and the
suite needs age.
- install.sh grows the three channels: default = the latest release's
asset (tag resolved off the releases/latest redirect Location — no
API, no token; failure dies loudly naming CAST_REF=main, never a
silent fallback), CAST_REF=<tag> = pinned (asset first, source
fallback), CAST_REF=main = dev build-from-source. npm is required
only on the source path, and a prebuilt tree is sanity-checked
(dist/, node_modules/) before $DEST is replaced.

against fixtures (0.7.0 never matches 0.7.0-rc1) and the real
changelog, and REAL install.sh runs through all three channels with a
stub curl and a poisoned npm — including the loud no-releases refusal
with no $DEST side effects.

feat: cast — the Coolify executor, extracted from the infra state repo
Public tool, private state. cast holds no hostnames, no bindings, no
secrets: it joins a product repo's .infra/ manifest with a state directory
you point it at, and makes Coolify match.
Extracted from heavy-duty/infra, which was half tool and half state — the
inconsistency that made it impossible to say whether "infra" named a CLI
or a runbook. rig builds the boxes; cast fills them; infra is what they
are filled with.
Two changes were required to make it genuinely stateless and publishable:
- The implicit cwd contract (environments.yaml / secrets/ / .coolify.env
resolved against the working directory, silently reading the wrong file
from the wrong place) is now an explicit --state <dir> / $CAST_STATE.
- BANNED_IN_PROD — a hardcoded list of one product's ALLOW_* flags, the
only product knowledge in the executor — becomes the generic, operator-
owned environments.<env>.forbidden_var_patterns. The guard now lives in
private state, so a product-side change cannot lower its own guard, and
it is a pattern rather than a list, so it catches unforeseen siblings.
Age identities resolve as $CAST_AGE_KEY_FILE_<ENV> then
~/.config/cast/age-<env>.key — which is the entire attended-vs-unattended
apply mechanism, with no environment names known to the tool.
Instance identity (org names, the GitHub App name, founder domains) is out
of the fixtures and out of register-github-app.sh, which took APP_NAME and
ORG as arguments rather than baking them in.
69 tests green; bin/cast + curl installer mirror rig's shape.

refactor: rescope to versioned installations — the release flow moves out
Maintainer direction: this PR's one goal is the versioned layout, the same
one box#79 built and rig#36 ported — the release flow (tags, release.yml,
prebuilt assets, CHANGELOG) is its own PR later, the shape rig#40 has.
So: release.yml, changelog-section.sh, CHANGELOG.md and the asset-aware
installer channels leave this branch, and in their place cast gets the
family layout for real:
- install.sh lands each build at $DEST/versions/<package.json version>,
'current' names the default (atomic rename flips), $BINDIR/cast points
through it. Converging no-op on an installed version (nothing rebuilt),
CAST_REINSTALL=1 replaces, a new version installs beside and becomes
default. Pre-versioning flat installs migrate in place, bit for bit.
CAST_INSTALL_SOURCE=<dir|tarball> installs locally (CI/tests, rig's
RIG_INSTALL_SOURCE precedent). No flip gate: box refuses under live
boxes, rig warns on a converged host — cast is an API client, a flip
strands nothing, 'cast use <old>' is one command away.
- bin/cast grows the layout verbs in bash (they must work when dist/ is
broken): versions (marks current+running), use (atomic flip, then
asserts the chain ANSWERS the new version), uninstall (consent gate,
CURRENT guard, dangling-current guard, ends with the absence assert).
valid_version/pkg_version are byte-identical copies in both files; a
test diffs them so the gates cannot drift.
- cast --version stays: package.json is the single source of truth,
printed with the install root, rig-style.
- ci.yml gains the install job: the real installer, from this checkout,
layout asserted, converge no-op asserted, uninstall --all asserted
absent — the box CI precedent.
- Tests drive the REAL install.sh and bin/cast offline (npm shim, local
source): the layout, the chain answering end to end, no-op/reinstall/
side-by-side/migration semantics, the hostile-version gates, refs/heads
download, every uninstall refusal.

log " default version switched: $old_ver -> $new_ver ('cast use $old_ver ' switches back) "
feat: versioned installs — tagged releases with a prebuilt dist asset (#96)
cast gets the family's release flow (box#83's shape), plus the piece
unique to cast: because cast compiles, the source tarball is not the
package — so release.yml builds ONCE in CI and attaches cast-X.Y.Z.tgz,
and the installer's default channel extracts that asset instead of
running npm ci + tsc on the operator's machine.
- cast --version: package.json is the single source of truth (no VERSION
file); prints the install root too, rig-style.
- CHANGELOG.md with Unreleased; release notes are the curated section
(scripts/changelog-section.sh), never the auto-generated PR list.
- release.yml on a bare X.Y.Z tag: assert tag == package.json version,
check + build + test, prune, tar the runnable tree, gh release create.
- install.sh channels: unset → latest release asset (resolved via the
releases/latest redirect — no API, no token); CAST_REF=X.Y.Z → that
tag's asset; CAST_REF=<branch> → build-from-source, the old path.
- Tests drive the REAL install.sh offline via curl/npm PATH shims (all
three channels, plus the broken-asset and no-release refusals), and
the real changelog-section.sh against fixture changelogs.

Filed as cast's record of heavy-duty/box#116: a `shopt -s globstar;
files=(bin/* **/*.sh)` sweep never descends into `.github/`, because globs
do not match dot-prefixed names without `dotglob`. cast has no such sweep —
it has no shellcheck step at all. Its only shell gate was
bash -n install.sh bin/cast scripts/*.sh .github/scripts/*.sh
a syntax check over a hand-maintained list. The reported symptom holds
(release-notes.sh and labels-reconcile.sh ship unlinted) but so does every
other script here, and `bash -n` parses without linting: it would not catch
a quoting or unset-variable bug in any of them.
.github/scripts/shellcheck-all.sh now runs `shellcheck -x` over the tracked
tree, from CI and from `npm run check:shell`. The file list comes from
`git ls-files`, not a glob. `dotglob` was measured and does work today —
cast's dependency tree ships zero `.sh` files, so sweeping after `npm ci`
pulls in nothing — but that is a property of somebody else's package tree,
re-decided by every install. `git ls-files` does not depend on it.
Extensionless scripts are matched by shebang, which covers bin/cast without
naming it.
It carries a class check in box#112's shape: the sweep asserts its own list
covers `git ls-files '*.sh'` and fails naming the strays otherwise. Verified
by swapping the derivation for the buggy globstar glob, which reports
exactly the two .github/scripts files.
All eight scripts pass as they stood; the three findings were intentional
($PATH written literally into a profile, advice text in backticks) or a
false positive, and are annotated in place. No behavior changes.

a syntax check over a hand-maintained list. The reported symptom holds
(release-notes.sh and labels-reconcile.sh ship unlinted) but so does every
other script here, and `bash -n` parses without linting: it would not catch
a quoting or unset-variable bug in any of them.
.github/scripts/shellcheck-all.sh now runs `shellcheck -x` over the tracked
tree, from CI and from `npm run check:shell`. The file list comes from
`git ls-files`, not a glob. `dotglob` was measured and does work today —
cast's dependency tree ships zero `.sh` files, so sweeping after `npm ci`
pulls in nothing — but that is a property of somebody else's package tree,
re-decided by every install. `git ls-files` does not depend on it.
Extensionless scripts are matched by shebang, which covers bin/cast without
naming it.
It carries a class check in box#112's shape: the sweep asserts its own list
covers `git ls-files '*.sh'` and fails naming the strays otherwise. Verified
by swapping the derivation for the buggy globstar glob, which reports
exactly the two .github/scripts files.
All eight scripts pass as they stood; the three findings were intentional
($PATH written literally into a profile, advice text in backticks) or a
false positive, and are annotated in place. No behavior changes.

feat: cast — the Coolify executor, extracted from the infra state repo
Public tool, private state. cast holds no hostnames, no bindings, no
secrets: it joins a product repo's .infra/ manifest with a state directory
you point it at, and makes Coolify match.
Extracted from heavy-duty/infra, which was half tool and half state — the
inconsistency that made it impossible to say whether "infra" named a CLI
or a runbook. rig builds the boxes; cast fills them; infra is what they
are filled with.
Two changes were required to make it genuinely stateless and publishable:
- The implicit cwd contract (environments.yaml / secrets/ / .coolify.env
resolved against the working directory, silently reading the wrong file
from the wrong place) is now an explicit --state <dir> / $CAST_STATE.
- BANNED_IN_PROD — a hardcoded list of one product's ALLOW_* flags, the
only product knowledge in the executor — becomes the generic, operator-
owned environments.<env>.forbidden_var_patterns. The guard now lives in
private state, so a product-side change cannot lower its own guard, and
it is a pattern rather than a list, so it catches unforeseen siblings.
Age identities resolve as $CAST_AGE_KEY_FILE_<ENV> then
~/.config/cast/age-<env>.key — which is the entire attended-vs-unattended
apply mechanism, with no environment names known to the tool.
Instance identity (org names, the GitHub App name, founder domains) is out
of the fixtures and out of register-github-app.sh, which took APP_NAME and
ORG as arguments rather than baking them in.
69 tests green; bin/cast + curl installer mirror rig's shape.

refactor: rescope to versioned installations — the release flow moves out
Maintainer direction: this PR's one goal is the versioned layout, the same
one box#79 built and rig#36 ported — the release flow (tags, release.yml,
prebuilt assets, CHANGELOG) is its own PR later, the shape rig#40 has.
So: release.yml, changelog-section.sh, CHANGELOG.md and the asset-aware
installer channels leave this branch, and in their place cast gets the
family layout for real:
- install.sh lands each build at $DEST/versions/<package.json version>,
'current' names the default (atomic rename flips), $BINDIR/cast points
through it. Converging no-op on an installed version (nothing rebuilt),
CAST_REINSTALL=1 replaces, a new version installs beside and becomes
default. Pre-versioning flat installs migrate in place, bit for bit.
CAST_INSTALL_SOURCE=<dir|tarball> installs locally (CI/tests, rig's
RIG_INSTALL_SOURCE precedent). No flip gate: box refuses under live
boxes, rig warns on a converged host — cast is an API client, a flip
strands nothing, 'cast use <old>' is one command away.
- bin/cast grows the layout verbs in bash (they must work when dist/ is
broken): versions (marks current+running), use (atomic flip, then
asserts the chain ANSWERS the new version), uninstall (consent gate,
CURRENT guard, dangling-current guard, ends with the absence assert).
valid_version/pkg_version are byte-identical copies in both files; a
test diffs them so the gates cannot drift.
- cast --version stays: package.json is the single source of truth,
printed with the install root, rig-style.
- ci.yml gains the install job: the real installer, from this checkout,
layout asserted, converge no-op asserted, uninstall --all asserted
absent — the box CI precedent.
- Tests drive the REAL install.sh and bin/cast offline (npm shim, local
source): the layout, the chain answering end to end, no-op/reinstall/
side-by-side/migration semantics, the hostile-version gates, refs/heads
download, every uninstall refusal.
