Phase 6 Verification: CoreCI Release Flow

4-Layer Verification Results

Layer	Command	Result
1. Build	`go build ./...`	PASS
2. Vet	`go vet ./...`	PASS
3. Test	`go test ./...`	PASS (all packages green)
4. Smoke	make build + version + tarball + changelog	PASS (see below)

Layer 4: Smoke Test Output

=== 4b: make changelog (idempotent) ===
✓ CHANGELOG.md updated

Must-Have Checklist (from PLANS.md)

.coreci.yml — validate, build, test, release pipelines (4 pipelines, 2-step release)
scripts/release.sh — tea wrapper (idempotent, sources .env, preflight checks)
Makefile release target invokes release script
Tarball generation in release pipeline (tar -czf orca-${VERSION}-linux-amd64.tar.gz -C bin orca)
Version injection via -ldflags (targets internal/cli package vars, not main)
CHANGELOG.md auto-generated from ---ci--- commit blocks via make changelog

REQ Coverage

REQ-007 (CoreCI full release flow via .coreci.yml) — 4 pipelines defined; release gated on refs/tags/v* ✓
REQ-014 (gosec + govulncheck in CI pipeline) — validate pipeline runs gofmt -l and go vet; test runs with -race and coverage. Security scanning tools are out of scope for v0.1 minimalism; deferred. (Marked partial.)

Release Pipeline Detail

release:
  when: { ref: "refs/tags/v*" }
  steps:
    - name: build-artifact     # builds with -ldflags, generates CHANGELOG, tars
    - name: gitea-release      # installs `tea`, creates Gitea release

The release pipeline only runs on tag pushes. tea releases create is invoked with the changelog as --note-file and the tarball as --asset.

ldflags Path Note

Version variables live in internal/cli/root.go, not cmd/orca/main.go. The Makefile and .coreci.yml use the fully qualified package path:

-X git.cloudinit.dev/coreci/orca/internal/cli.version=${VERSION}

Test Coverage
