ci: migrate build artifact handoff from cache to artifacts#5740
Merged
Conversation
The publish job (and smoke/brew/scoop/preview consumers) pulled the compiled binaries + dist/ from a run-scoped GitHub Actions cache keyed by run_id, restored with fail-on-cache-miss. Caches share a 10 GB per-repo budget and are evicted LRU, so a large build cache can vanish mid-run between the producer and a later consumer — which is exactly what broke release v2.109.0: the cache restored fine for an early consumer, then was gone by the time publish ran, and the run_id-keyed cache could not be regenerated on re-run because the producer job was not re-executed. Replace the cache handoff with actions/upload-artifact / download-artifact. Artifacts have deterministic retention (set to 1 day for this intra-run handoff), survive job re-runs within the run, and are not subject to the cache LRU. Since artifacts drop the Unix executable bit, add a chmod +x in the publish job before it ships packages/cli-*/bin/supabase to npm (smoke and preview jobs already chmod). Rename the producer's cache_key_suffix input to artifact_name_suffix to match.

## Summary Reverts the release workflow handoff from uploaded artifacts back to `actions/cache` now that the repository has more GitHub cache capacity. This restores the previous run-scoped cache keys for CLI build outputs across smoke, publish, Homebrew, Scoop, and preview-package jobs while keeping the newer pinned `actions/cache` version from the dependency bump. Reverts supabase#5740

Replace GitHub Actions cache with artifacts for passing build outputs between jobs in the release workflow. This improves reliability by using run-scoped artifacts with deterministic retention instead of a shared 10 GB cache budget that can be evicted LRU mid-run.
Key changes:
build-cli-artifacts.yml: Replace
actions/cache/savewithactions/upload-artifactto hand off compiled binaries and dist files to downstream jobs. Artifacts are configured with 1-day retention, light compression (binaries already compressed), and overwrite enabled for job re-runs.release-shared.yml: Replace all
actions/cache/restorecalls withactions/download-artifactin publish, publish-homebrew, and publish-scoop jobs. Update artifact names to match the new naming scheme (cli-build-{shell}-{version}{suffix}).build-cli-artifacts.yml: Rename
cache_key_suffixinput toartifact_name_suffixfor clarity.release-shared.yml: Add missing binary permission fix step in the npm-publish job (chmod +x on compiled binaries) to match the pattern used in other publish jobs, since artifacts don't preserve Unix permissions.
publish-preview-cli-packages.yml: Update preview build artifact retrieval to use
actions/download-artifact.This change eliminates the risk of cache eviction between the build producer and downstream consumers while simplifying the artifact naming and handoff logic.
