Promotes one commit, 6525cb8 from #1215, which settles two deferred contract defects.

D1.6, the Python coverage invocation

#1199 reported that pytest --cov-report=xml collects nothing, so no Python repo in the fleet reports coverage. The first half is true and the second is false, and the live runs said so: Financial-Modeling and aiopurpleair each log Coverage XML written to file coverage.xml and upload it, because each carries a --cov=<package> entry in its own pyproject addopts.

The real defect was narrower. D1.6 and spec/project-types.json documented the bare invocation as the thing that collects coverage, and it does not, so a repo onboarded by following D1.6 literally reported nothing while its gate stayed green. The contract now states the three obligations that were implicit, and the validator fails the test step when the run wrote no root coverage.xml, deleting any stale report first so the check tests what this run produced.

D4.5, the recovery a moved tip forecloses

#1214 reported that D4.5 and D5.2 between them imply a failed package push is unrecoverable once the branch tip moves, and assumed settling it needed a live publish against a real registry. It did not. 5B settles a question of this shape from the YAML: the publisher pins ref: ${{ github.sha }}, every build leaf checks out needs.get-version.outputs.GitCommitId, and GitHub replays a re-run under the original event's GITHUB_SHA, so Re-run all jobs rebuilds the same version and retries the push. D4.5 now names two recoveries and says which case each covers, with three qualifications on the second.

Review

Three reviewer rounds on the feature PR, all findings disposed: the PR title length and a change-framed doc sentence fixed, an overlong-comment finding declined on evidence (no such rule is committed, and the nearest one says the opposite), CodeRabbit's D1.6 precondition finding fixed across all four surfaces that state the rule, and two outside-diff findings answered in the PR conversation. Every reviewer covered the final head.

Seven issues were filed for defects the review passes surfaced but this change does not fix: #1216, #1217, #1218, #1219, #1220, #1221, #1222.

Two are worth naming here because they bear on what this promotes. #1216 records that a build artifact surviving a failed run may defeat the Re-run all jobs recovery this change documents, which needs a live failed publish to settle and is therefore yours to run. #1221 records that D1.6 requires coverage of tested Python repos the validator's uv.lock guard excludes, which this change makes visible by stating the precondition rather than resolving.

Closes #1199
Closes #1214

…te (#1215)

Settles two deferred contract defects, #1199 and #1214. Both were found
by adversarial passes on earlier pull requests and both were left for a
change that could touch CI behaviour rather than wording alone.

## D1.6, the Python coverage invocation

**#1199's headline is false, and the live runs say so.** It reported
that `pytest --cov-report=xml` collects nothing so no Python repo in the
fleet reports coverage. The first half is true, the second is not.
Financial-Modeling and aiopurpleair each log `Coverage XML written to
file coverage.xml` and upload it, because each carries a
`--cov=<package>` entry in its own pyproject `addopts`.
homeassistant-purpleair has no `uv.lock`, so the step's own `if` never
fires there, and PlexCleaner's Python subtree and ESPHome-Config are
lint-only.

The real defect is narrower. D1.6 and `spec/project-types.json` both
documented the bare invocation as the thing that collects coverage, and
it does not: `pytest-cov` reports on what `--cov` selects, so
`--cov-report=xml` alone measures nothing, writes no file, and exits
zero. A repo onboarded by following D1.6 literally therefore reports
nothing while its gate stays green, which is the failure D1.6's own
*Prevents* clause names. Nothing downstream notices, because the upload
is best-effort by design and reads a missing file exactly as it reads a
healthy run.

So the contract now states the three obligations that were implicit,
that the repo references `pytest-cov`, selects the coverage source in
its own `pyproject.toml`, and leaves the report at the root path the
upload step already reads, and the validator fails the test step when
that file was not written.

The step deletes any `coverage.xml` before the run, so the check proves
this run wrote one rather than that a file exists. Without that, a repo
committing the report satisfies the guard while measuring nothing, which
is the same false green in a new place. Proven by removing the delete
and watching that case pass.

Adding `--cov` to the shared validator was the obvious fix and is the
wrong one. Alongside a repo's own `--cov=<package>` it widens the
measured set to include `tests/`, which moves every existing repo's
percentage and would break a repo running `fail_under = 100`.

## D4.5, the recovery a moved tip forecloses

**#1214 assumed settling this needed a live publish against a real
registry. It does not.** 5B settles a question of this shape from the
YAML, and the YAML answers this one. `publish-release.yml` passes `ref:
${{ github.sha }}`, and every build leaf checks out
`needs.get-version.outputs.GitCommitId`. **Re-run all jobs** replays a
run under the original event's `GITHUB_SHA`, so `get-version` recomputes
the same version, the leaves rebuild the same commit, the package
artifact D5.2 deleted is rebuilt and re-uploaded, and `publish-<target>`
retries the push. What stays open is only whether the registry accepts
the retried push, and no route settles that in advance, the prescribed
re-dispatch included.

So D4.5 now names two recoveries and says which case each covers, rather
than one recovery and an implication that the other case is beyond
repair. Three qualifications ship with it: D4.4 and 5B's S9 describe a
re-run whose predecessor push succeeded, GitHub allows a re-run only
within 30 days, and `--failed` is unreliable because D5.2's delete has
usually taken the artifact its download needs.

Two claims in the surrounding sentences were false and are corrected
with it. "Leaves the first release without its package" is wrong for a
NuGet caller, since D4.3 in the same item has the NuGet leaf uploading a
`release-asset-*` carrying the package. And "since NBGV derives the
version from git height" was attached to the claim that a re-dispatch
builds the new tip, which git height does not explain.

**#1214's own claim that 5C reserves a real registry push for the
maintainer is not in 5C.** 5C reserves the deploy ref gate dispatch and
nothing else, so that citation was dropped rather than carried over.

## Reach

Financial-Modeling calls `validate-task.yml` at a pinned hub release and
picks the guard up at its next Dependabot bump. aiopurpleair still
carries its own copy of the file, so it gets nothing here until it
adopts the caller stub. Neither goes red: both carry a selector,
`pytest-cov`, a `uv.lock`, and no `[tool.coverage.xml]` redirect. The
precondition a Python adopter now owes is recorded on Stage 2's tracker
in `docs/reusable-workflows.md`.

The hub has no `tests/` and no `uv.lock`, so it cannot smoke-test this
itself. That is the lint-only carve-out working, not drift, but it means
CI here exercises the prose and not the guard.

## Verification

Guard measured on a real pytest tree in every direction: no selector
writes no file and exits zero, a selector writes it, a bogus selector
writes nothing, absent `pytest-cov` exits 4, a `[tool.coverage.xml]`
redirect leaves the root path empty, and a committed `coverage.xml`
passes the pre-delete version and reds the shipped one. Full gate set
green: 1046 script self-tests, `spec/validate.py`, `build_dist.py
--check`, prose, eol, eol-coverage, sha-pin, actionlint, markdownlint,
editorconfig-checker.

The three changed carried canonical units each carry a recorded pass,
and the branch carries a recorded diff review.

## Review cost, stated plainly

The D4.5 passage took six adversarial rounds and every round but the
last introduced a defect the next one caught, twice by correctly
applying the previous round's advice. The durable lesson is that prose
stating a rule on top of a mechanism fails differently from prose
stating the mechanism: when the mechanism turned out to be unverifiable,
re-deriving the rule from what was left produced a claim nothing
supported, and deleting the rule was the fix.

Nineteen pre-existing defects those passes surfaced are being filed
separately rather than fixed here.

High-Level Assessment

The current approach is appropriate: enforce the observable coverage artifact at the validator boundary while leaving repository-specific source selection in pyproject.toml, then synchronize that requirement across authoritative and distributed contracts. Passing a generic --cov value from the hub was considered but dismissed because the hub cannot reliably infer each repository's package layout. Documenting full-run replay for moved tips also matches GitHub's original-SHA semantics and rebuilds artifacts deleted after the failed push.

🟢 Approval recommended

The CI behavior change is internally consistent with the updated contract/spec text and the implementation correctly enforces the documented root coverage.xml invariant without introducing conflicting workflow logic.

Pull request overview

This promotion updates the workflow contract and shared validation logic to (1) make Python coverage collection requirements explicit and enforce that a root coverage.xml is actually produced, and (2) document/justify a reliable recovery path for failed package pushes when the branch tip has moved.

Changes:

  • Enforce Python coverage report production in the reusable validate-task by deleting any stale coverage.xml and failing the test step if the run did not write a non-empty root report.
  • Clarify the coverage contract (D1.6) to reflect that pytest --cov-report=xml requires a repo-supplied --cov=<package> selector (typically via pyproject.toml addopts).
  • Update D4.5 recovery guidance to include Re-run all jobs as the moved-tip recovery path, and propagate the condensed-guarantee updates across skill distributions.

+- **D4.5 A build failure blocks every publish target.** Input: a real publish where one enabled build fails. Output: nothing publishes. `github-release` needs every build and carries the same `!failure() && !cancelled()` guard the terminal registry pusher (Docker) does, since the implicit `success()` would otherwise skip both on every run that disables a target rather than only on a failed one. A failed build therefore skips the release (no tag, no release), and Docker, which needs every other build, skips with it (no image push) while a disabled or unchanged target (skipped, not failed) still lets docker push. *Prevents: a partial publish, e.g. a Docker image pushed while .NET publish failed and no release was cut.* A package target's separate publish job needs its own gate for the same reason, since it sits outside the `github-release` and Docker `needs:` chains: it `needs:` the release-task call, so a failed build skips it with the rest. What no gate covers is a failed **push**, because that job runs after the whole release task and therefore after `github-release`, for the trusted-publishing reason section 3's package-registry bullet gives. A rejected token exchange, a registry outage, or a trusted-publishing policy naming the wrong workflow file therefore leaves a published release and tag for a version that never reached the registry. The recovery is a re-dispatch or a re-run rather than a cleanup, and which of the two applies turns on whether the branch tip has moved. A dispatch names a branch, `main` or `develop` per D2.3, and never a commit, so what it builds is that branch's tip at dispatch time. A re-dispatch therefore refreshes the failed version's release (D4.4) and runs its push again while the tip is still the commit whose push failed. Once the tip has moved a re-dispatch builds the new tip instead. NBGV derives the version from git height, so that is a further version, and the version whose push failed never reaches the registry. **Re-run all jobs** (`gh run rerun <id>`) is the recovery there. GitHub replays a run under the original event's `GITHUB_SHA` and `GITHUB_REF` and re-executes every job rather than only the failed ones, the publisher pins the release task to that commit with `ref: ${{ github.sha }}`, so `get-version` recomputes the version from the same commit and history and each build leaf checks out the `GitCommitId` `get-version` emits, the package artifact D5.2 deleted is rebuilt and re-uploaded rather than missing when `publish-<target>` downloads it, and that job retries the push it failed. The release needs nothing from that re-run, the failed run having already cut it, so whether D4.4's release-create step refreshes or skips does not bear on the recovery. What no route settles in advance is whether the registry accepts the retried push. Three qualifications come with **Re-run all jobs**. D4.4 and 5B's S9 describe a re-run whose predecessor push **succeeded**, where the registry dedupes the second one, so this recovery is the case they do not cover and its retried push is the first the registry ever receives for that version. GitHub offers a re-run only within **30 days** of the initial run, past which a moved tip leaves that version with no route at all. And **Re-run failed jobs** (`--failed`) is unreliable here rather than unavailable. D5.2's delete runs on the path that reaches this case, its gate being `!cancelled()` and the download having succeeded, and it removes the package artifact a `--failed` re-run would download. D5.3 leaves that delete best-effort, so the artifact survives where that delete ran and failed, and `--failed` works in that case alone.

2. Surviving artifacts block reruns 🐞 Bug ☼ Reliability
Description
D4.5 claims “Re-run all jobs” rebuilds and re-uploads package artifacts, but a failed best-effort
deletion leaves fixed-name artifacts that the immutable upload action cannot replace. The rerun then
fails during artifact upload before the package publisher can retry, potentially leaving the
released version absent from its registry.

D4.5 documents **Re-run all jobs** as recovery after a failed package push, but artifact cleanup is best-effort. If an earlier artifact survives, the full rerun uploads the same fixed artifact name without `overwrite: true`; immutable artifact handling rejects that upload before the registry push can be retried.

## Issue Context
NuGet and PyPI package artifacts use fixed branch-based names. NuGet and .NET release assets can independently cause the same failure when release-asset cleanup fails. Make every artifact rebuilt by this recovery replace a surviving artifact, or revise the documented recovery to require explicit deletion first.

3. Coverage comment block is overlong 📜 Skill insight ⚙ Maintainability
Description
The new pytest explanation is a three-line prose comment block, although comments must use one line
by default and at most a justified second line. This makes the workflow commentary more verbose than
the required comment style permits.
Code

.github/workflows/validate-task.yml[R311-313]

+      # --cov-report=xml names the report format and selects nothing to measure, so the repository's own pyproject.toml supplies the --cov selector, per D1.6.
+      # The report is checked rather than assumed, because the best-effort upload below reads a missing file exactly as it reads a healthy run.
+      # The pre-run delete makes that a check on what this run wrote, since a committed coverage.xml would otherwise satisfy it without any measurement.

## Issue description
The pytest step introduces a three-line prose comment block, exceeding the permitted comment structure.

## Issue Context
Retain only the essential rationale that the repository supplies the coverage selector and that deleting the previous report prevents stale output from satisfying the check.

In @.agents/skills/workflow-ci-contract/references/d-guarantees.md:
- Line 35: Update all three D4.5 copies to qualify the “Re-run all jobs”
recovery: require successful deletion of the prior NuGet/PyPI artifacts, or
configure uploads with overwrite enabled, or use run-attempt-specific artifact
names consistently in producers and consumers. Preserve the existing same-commit
rerun guidance and note that without one of these conditions, artifact upload
can fail before publish-target jobs execute.

In `@spec/project-types.json`:
- Line 45: The python.coverage.codecov contract in project-types.json must apply
only when the repository has tests, matching the validator’s tests/** condition.
Update the coverage_active/profile logic in spec/audit.py or revise the profile
contract so package-only build repositories do not require CODECOV_TOKEN or
codecov.yml, while preserving coverage requirements for Python profiles that
include tests.

In `@WORKFLOW.md`:
- Line 180: Update the D4.5 recovery guidance for full reruns so rebuilt NuGet
and PyPI artifacts can replace surviving artifacts with the same names, by
configuring the relevant actions/upload-artifact steps with overwrite enabled or
an equivalent collision-safe mechanism. Anchor the change to the nuget-build and
pypi-build artifact upload definitions and ensure package publish jobs can
proceed after rerunning all jobs.

Answering Qodo's third finding, which posted no thread on this PR.

3. Coverage comment block is overlong — The new pytest explanation is a three-line prose comment block, although comments must use one line by default and at most a justified second line.

Declined, as it was on #1215 where the same finding carried a thread. Recording the disposition here for completeness, and one clarification worth more than the decline itself.

The cited rule is Qodo's, not this fleet's. The finding attributes it to "PR Compliance ID 2826677", one of the 78 platform compliance rules Qodo's own summary reports it applied. That resolves something I got slightly wrong the first time: I declined on #1215 saying no such rule is committed here, which is true, but I framed it as Qodo asserting a rule that does not exist. It exists, as a Qodo platform rule, and it simply is not one of ours.

The fleet's own committed rule says the opposite. .agents/skills/python-codestyle/references/code-style.md reads: "One line is preferred, but multi-line is fine when you need to document a non-obvious implementation constraint, a local trade-off, or coupling that future edits could easily break. Keep that rationale next to the affected block." The three lines each carry a distinct constraint rather than elaborating one: that --cov-report=xml selects no measurement so the repo's own pyproject supplies the selector, that the best-effort upload below reads a missing report identically to a healthy one, and that the pre-run delete is what makes the check test this run rather than the checkout's contents. .github/workflows/validate-task.yml carries ten multi-line comment blocks, two of them three lines, including the adjacent C# coverage step.

The general point, since this is the second time. Where a Qodo platform rule and a committed fleet rule disagree, the committed rule governs, and this one disagrees in both directions rather than merely being stricter. Worth knowing when reading Qodo's compliance counts: a finding tagged "Skill insight" may be citing a platform rule rather than anything in this repository.
