Lets amicode's release workflow drive the fork build with an explicit channel (repository_dispatch + client_payload {tag, channel}), so a promoted release provisions its own beta-channel binary instead of vendoring whatever the lock pinned (historically dev → DEV badge in customer builds). Tag/channel resolve inputs → client_payload → ref_name; dev stays the default for hand-run internal builds.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added support for triggering release builds from external workflows.
    • Release builds can now use a supplied tag and channel when initiated through a dispatch event.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Ensured dispatched releases consistently use the requested tag and channel throughout the build and release process.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The release workflow now supports external repository_dispatch events. It uses payload tag and channel values for concurrency, checkout, versioning, embedded UI builds, and release-note badges.

Changes

Amicode release workflow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Dispatch inputs and tag selection
.github/workflows/amicode-release.yml
The workflow accepts amicode-release dispatch events. Payload tag values control concurrency, checkout, and version derivation.
Channel propagation
.github/workflows/amicode-release.yml
Payload channel values control OPENCODE_CHANNEL and the release-notes badge channel. Defaults remain dev when no channel is provided.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔴 Critical · up to b598d

Externally supplied release values can currently execute commands, select unapproved code, and publish altered releases or binaries from a job with repository write access. Merge should be blocked until tag and channel validation, safe shell value handling, approved-ref verification, and checkout credential isolation are implemented.

actions/checkout v7 persist-credentials default token .git/config documentation

💡 Result:

In the actions/checkout action, the persist-credentials input determines whether the authentication token or SSH key used for checking out the repository is persisted in the local.git/config file [1][2]. As of version v7, the default value for persist-credentials remains true [3]. When set to true (the default), the action configures the Git credential helper to use the provided token, allowing subsequent steps in your workflow to run authenticated Git commands (such as git push) without needing to manually re-authenticate [1][4]. The token used is typically the GITHUB_TOKEN provided by GitHub Actions [5][6]. Key points regarding this functionality: - Security Mechanism: Because the token is written to the local.git/config, it is technically accessible to other processes running within the same job environment. The action is designed to remove this configuration during the post-job cleanup phase [1][7]. - Opt-Out: If you do not require authenticated Git operations in later steps, you can set persist-credentials: false in your workflow file to prevent the token from being written to the local Git configuration [1][8]. - Context: While there have been community-led discussions and pull requests proposing to change this default to false to mitigate potential security risks, the default behavior in official releases, including v7, has remained true [3][9][10].

Sensitive Data Exposure (CWE-522): Insufficiently Protected Credentials

Reachability: External · Exploitability: Moderate

Do not persist checkout credentials for dispatch-selected code.

actions/checkout@v7.0.1 persists GITHUB_TOKEN by default. Set persist-credentials: false; the release step already provides GH_TOKEN explicitly.

Validate the promoted release tag before checkout.

client_payload.tag directly selects the checkout ref and the tag passed to gh release create, with no format or approved-commit check. A caller that can dispatch amicode-release can publish code from an unapproved ref. Require the expected tag format and verify that it resolves to the approved immutable commit before building.

Reject unsupported channel values before building.

client_payload.channel is accepted without an allowlist. The release notes code emits BETA only for beta and DEV for every other value, while .github/workflows/publish.yml Lines 312-325 also recognizes prod. A prod value or typo can therefore produce a binary and badge for different channels. Accept only dev and beta for this workflow, then reuse the validated value for both build and release notes.
