ci: have the generator declare which paths it owns, and check it wrote them - #392
Conversation
`rainix-copy-artifacts` currency-checks committed generated sources by re-running every consumer codegen hook and then `git diff --exit-code`. That method has one blind spot, and it is total: a generator that has STOPPED emitting a file writes nothing, so the committed copy — already correct — is left exactly as it is, nothing differs, and the job is green over a dead emitter (rainlanguage/rain.factory.deploy#35, reproduced there with a control). The blind spot is structural. The generator's output is the check's only oracle for what the committed files should contain, so a file the generator never writes has no oracle at all. Seeing it needs an INDEPENDENT statement of which committed files are generated: `script/codegen-manifest.txt`. New `rainix-static codegen-witness mark|verify --state <file>`, wired into the workflow as a composite action at `@main`: - `mark` records every git-tracked file's mtime before the first codegen hook. - `verify` re-stats after the last hook, before `forge fmt`, and calls a file WRITTEN when it exists and its mtime moved. `vm.writeFile` rewrites unconditionally, so a live emitter moves the mtime even when the bytes are identical — exactly the case the diff cannot tell from a dead emitter. - Any declared path nothing wrote fails the job, naming the file. Listed-must-be-written, not set equality: a file written but not declared is a printed note, never a failure, so an incidental write inside the window (forge build is in there) cannot redden every consumer at once. Scope is git-tracked files, keeping out/, cache/, broadcast/ and dependencies/ out of the witness regardless of a repo's .gitignore hygiene. A composite action rather than a pinned-sha run step, so the check version always matches the action version and no RAINIX_SHA bump window leaves consumers red with `unknown subcommand` between two merges. Consumers: the 15 rainlanguage repos that carry a codegen hook must each add a `script/codegen-manifest.txt` or their copy-artifacts job fails. The failing job prints the manifest that run would justify, for review and commit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

A generator reporting its own writes passes a dead emitter that still prints its `wrote` line. Writes are now observed: `mark` records every tracked file's mtime before the first codegen hook, `verify` after the last counts a moved mtime as written. Generators declare only `owns`; a `wrote` line is refused as an unknown verb. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Part of rainlanguage/rain.factory.deploy#35, which closes once consumers adopt the new
rain-deployfrom the companion PR rainlanguage/rain.deploy#327 — merging this alone checks nothing, because until then no generator prints anownsline.Reworked. The first version of this PR left the currency check defective and
added a second check beside it, paid for by a hand-written
script/codegen-manifest.txtin 15 repos. That approach was superseded by theruling on issue 35. This one repairs the check instead.
Nothing is declared by hand and no repo goes red on merge, so
#394 and its 15 child issues no longer describe any work this
needs.
The defect
rainix-copy-artifactscurrency-checks committed generated sources by re-runningeach codegen hook and then
git diff --exit-code. A generator that has STOPPEDemitting a file writes nothing, so the committed copy — already correct — is left
exactly as it is, nothing differs, and the job is green over a dead emitter.
Reproduced with a control in the issue: a marker appended to a generated file is
erased by a live generator and survives one whose single emitting call was
removed, with
git diffclean throughout.What the check lacked
Not a manifest. It could not tell a file left unwritten because its emitter is
dead from a file left unwritten because it is a frozen
src/generated/<tag>/release snapshot that is never meant to be rewritten. That is why a blanket
"delete the generated files, regenerate, diff" false-reds every deploy repo, and
it is the one fact neither the diff nor the filesystem has.
It lives in the generator. In a deploy repo
LibRainDeploySnapshotalreadycomputes every path the generator owns, from the same contract list and the same
constants its writers use — and the frozen record is excluded there by
construction, because
cutRelease()is the only thing that writes it.The fix
The generator declares, on stdout, the paths it owns:
Whether each was written is observed by CI, never reported by the generator:
a generator whose write call is gone but which still printed a
wroteline wouldpass, which is the dead-emitter bug one level up. So the job runs
codegen-declaration markbefore the first codegen hook, recording every trackedfile's mtime, tees every hook's stdout into one log, and runs
codegen-declaration verifyafter the last hook and beforeforge fmt.verifyfails, by name, on any path declared
ownswhose mtime did not move or that isabsent.
vm.writeFilerewrites unconditionally, so a live emitter moves the mtimeeven when the bytes are identical — exactly the case the diff cannot tell from a
dead one. A tracked file written but not declared is a printed note. Any
rainix-codegenline other thanowns <repo-relative path>— includingwrote—fails the job.
Nothing is maintained by hand, so nothing goes stale: a repo whose generator
computes where to write emits these lines from the same code. A repo whose hooks
print nothing keeps exactly today's behaviour — green, with a note saying a dead
emitter there is still invisible.
Why not delete-and-regenerate in CI
Because it cannot compile. A deploy repo's generator imports its own generated
output:
rain.factory.deploy'sscript/Build.solpulls inCloneFactoryDeploySuites, which imports bothsrc/generated/candidate/CloneFactory.soland
src/lib/LibReleasedSuites.sol. Removing those before running the generatormakes the generator itself uncompilable. Foundry compiles before it runs, so a
generator CAN clear its own outputs mid-run — CI cannot clear them for it. Making
absence visible is therefore only available inside the generator process, which
is the other half of why this fact has to come from there.
Why stdout
A cheatcode write needs an
fs_permissionsentry for the path it writes.Consumers permit
./srcand little else, so a declaration written to a statefile would need a
foundry.tomledit in every deploy repo — an adoption costthis is specifically avoiding.
console.logneeds no permission at all. Verifiedagainst forge 1.7.2:
forge scriptprints the log lines on stdout under== Logs ==, indented two spaces, with nightly warnings on stderr — so the teecaptures declarations and not warning noise, and the parser matches trimmed.
pipefailis set in every teed step: bash reportstee's status otherwise, anda failing generator would pass the step it just failed. A test enforces it.
Composite action, not a pinned-sha run step
rainlanguage/rainix/.github/actions/codegen-declaration@mainresolves thebinary via
path:$GITHUB_ACTION_PATH/../../.., so the check version alwaysmatches the action version and no
RAINIX_SHAbump window exists in whichconsumers see
unknown subcommand. Same pattern asmutation-ledgerandprompt-cap. The workflow's other run steps still use the pinned sha, and a testenforces that.
Adoption cost: none
The check is driven by what the generator says, so a repo that says nothing is
unaffected — which is every repo, on merge. rainix#394 measured 15 repos that
would have had to commit a manifest before this could merge; none of them has to
do anything now, and nothing in this PR reddens them.
What a consumer changes to be covered
One repo, not fifteen: rainlanguage/rain.deploy#327.
BuildScript.run()there printsLibRainDeploySnapshot.generatedPaths(recordRoot(), releaseRecordNames(), snapshotContractNames())— every candidate snapshot, every current contract's released-suites lib and
LibReleasedSuites— computed from the names, independently of which writersregenerateSnapshots()/regenerateLibs()happen to call, which is what makes aremoved call detectable at all.
8 of the 15 repos inherit that
BuildScript(rain.deploy,raindex,rain.factory.deploy,rain.metadata.deploy,rainlang.deploy,rain.math.float.deploy,rain.extrospection.deploy,rain.tofu.erc20-decimals.deploy) and pick the declaration up on a soldeer bump.rain.factory.deploy#35 closes once those consumers have adopted it. The word repos

Both still conflict textually on
rainix-copy-artifacts.yaml,main.rsandflake.nix.#319 (run codegen to a fixed point). Writes are observed by mtime, and
forge fmtmoves mtimes, soverifymust run before fmt (a workflow testenforces it). #319 folds fmt into the looped pipeline; reconciling the two means
verifycloses the window before the first fmt in the loop, or fmt's own writesare excluded. That is a real ordering constraint, not textual.
#318 (one canonical generated-sources dir). Textual overlap only. This PR
