Lane=Live end-to-end verification against the real feed, using the production
updater the GUI button calls: ReleaseManifestClient.ProductionManifestUri, real
network, real SHA-256/size verification, real ZIP extraction, real atomic
activation. Asserts what the launcher actually does next — that
LauncherExecutableSet can resolve BOTH hosts out of the activated directory,
and that current.json names the installed version — rather than merely that
files exist.
Excluded from the bounded gate (Lane=Live needs the public feed reachable);
run deliberately after a release lands. Writes only under an isolated
temporary path set, never the caller's real launcher data directory.
The launcher reported "no client available" because its update source was
pinned to a GitHub Releases manifest in a PRIVATE repo — nothing anonymous
could ever be fetched from it. Switch the feed to the PUBLIC Gitea repo so a
friend needs no account, and add the two commands that publish it.
- ReleaseManifestClient.ProductionManifestUri now points at
git.snakedesert.se/erik/acdream raw on the `dist` branch. No update
machinery changed: the existing strict reader already accepts any HTTPS
manifest, so this is a URL swap plus a build script.
- tools/publish-bin.ps1 publishes the payloads into /bin and writes
bin/manifest.json (schema v1, SHA-256 + size per artifact):
client-win-x64.zip AcDream.App + acdream-headless
launcher-win-x64.zip acdream-launcher + co-deployed acdream-bake
Stamps InformationalVersion ONLY — never -p:Version, which also rewrites
project-reference versions inside the committed packages.<rid>.lock.json
files and churned every one of them with a throwaway build stamp.
- tools/publish-dist.ps1 pushes /bin to the Gitea-only `dist` branch from a
throwaway worktree, leaving the developer's checkout, index, and HEAD
untouched. It refuses a GitHub remote outright.
Why `dist` and not main: the launcher payload is ~103 MB because the launcher
and its co-deployed bake CLI are each self-contained single files (deliberate,
see AcDream.Launcher.csproj). GitHub hard-rejects files over 100 MB, and all
three refs currently track main, so payloads on main would break every GitHub
push. `dist` is a single-commit orphan branch that each publish REPLACES, so
superseded builds never accumulate. /bin stays gitignored repo-wide and is
force-added only on that branch.
Verified live: manifest and both payloads serve anonymously over HTTPS, and a
downloaded client payload matches its declared SHA-256 and size byte for byte.
