At a glance: after this change, a merged release PR leaves both dist-tags on the released base —

push to main bumping 8.0.0-rc.6 → 8.0.0-rc.7
  publishes 8.0.0-rc.7        under latest   (as before)
  then publishes 8.0.0-rc.7-dev.1 under dev  (new)

Decision: the dev and release publishes are no longer alternatives. Every push to main publishes a <base>-dev.N build under dev; a version-changing push additionally publishes the release under latest first. Adopted from composer's model in prisma/composer#241 (prisma-cli made the identical change on 2026-08-18).

Previously a release push skipped the dev leg, so dev sat on a dev build of the previous base until the next routine push. That staleness caused a real outage on 2026-08-25: after 8.0.0-rc.7 released, dev still pointed at 8.0.0-rc.6-dev.1, whose @prisma/orm-toolchain peers @prisma/cli-engine@0.2.2 while the CLI ships 0.2.3. prisma-cli's dev channel builds against this repo's dev tag with no fallback, so its conformance check failed with an engine-pin mismatch and blocked its release until the tag was moved by hand.

How it works: determine-version.ts now emits a third output, devVersion, which is empty except on release pushes. The workflow gains a "dev follow-up" leg conditioned on it: re-stamp versions to <base>-dev.N, rebuild, re-run the version-sensitive dependency-specifier check, publish under dev, and create the lightweight v<version>-dev.N tag. The release steps already ran the full check battery against the same commit, so the follow-up repeats only the check the version stamp affects. Dev suffixes remain ephemeral CI stamps and are never committed.

One deliberate deviation from composer's step ordering: the follow-up runs before the "Notify prisma-cli" step. That notification triggers prisma-cli's auto-repin, which builds its dev channel against this repo's dev tag — notifying before the follow-up would re-create the exact outage at notify time.

The decision logic moved into a pure planPushPublish helper in determine-version-utils.ts (mirroring composer's), with unit tests covering the dev-only path, the release-plus-follow-up path, counter continuation, and the unreadable-previous-version fallback. docs/oss/versioning.md's trigger-model and dist-tag sections are updated to match.

Alternative considered: running the dev leg unconditionally before the release leg. Rejected to match composer's ordering — publishing the release first means latest never waits on the dev leg, and a failure in the follow-up leaves the release itself intact.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Development builds are now published on every push to main under the dev tag.
    • Release pushes publish both the stable package and a corresponding development build.
    • Development version numbering continues correctly across releases.
    • Re-running a release publish also restores the associated development build.
  • Documentation

    • Updated versioning guidance to describe the new publishing behavior and release process.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for development-only publishes, releases, version lookup failures, dry runs, and continued development numbering.

Ports the model from prisma/composer#241: every push to main publishes
a <base>-dev.N build under the dev dist-tag, and a version-changing
push additionally publishes the release. Previously the two were
alternatives, so after a release the dev tag sat on the previous base
until the next routine push — which broke prisma-cli dev-channel
publishing on 2026-08-25 (engine-pin mismatch against the stale
8.0.0-rc.6-dev.1).

The dev follow-up runs before the prisma-cli notification so the repin
it triggers sees the fresh dev tag.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds shared planning for release and development publishes, exposes devVersion through GitHub Actions outputs, publishes release commits under the dev dist-tag, and updates tests and versioning documentation.

Changes

Release dev follow-up publishing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Publish planning and validation
scripts/determine-version-utils.ts, scripts/determine-version-utils.test.ts
Adds push and dispatch planning for dev-only, release-plus-dev, dry-run, and non-latest cases.
Version output integration
scripts/determine-version.ts, .github/workflows/publish.yml
Uses the shared planners, passes dry-run state, and writes devVersion to $GITHUB_OUTPUT.
Dev follow-up publication and documentation
.github/workflows/publish.yml, docs/oss/versioning.md
Rebuilds and publishes the dev version, creates its tag before the prisma-cli notification, and documents dev publication on release and recovery runs.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to fb685

The workflow now publishes a dev build after release pushes, but the documented manual recovery path can still skip that follow-up after a partial failure, potentially leaving the dev tag stale until manually corrected; merge is reasonable with explicit owner awareness and a documentation fix.

Comment thread .github/workflows/publish.yml
Addresses CodeRabbit review on #30125: the non-dry-run workflow_dispatch
recovery path re-published only latest, so a failed dev follow-up could
not be recovered the same way and dev stayed on the previous base. A
real latest dispatch now emits devVersion too; dry runs never do, and
the mutating follow-up steps carry the independent dry-run guard the
other mutating steps have.

69-69: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Scope “every run” to non-dry-run pushes.

Line 69 says that every workflow run publishes a dev tarball. Line 100 says that dry-run executions skip registry publishing. A maintainer can invoke a dry run through workflow_dispatch, so the documentation contradicts itself. State that each non-dry-run push to main publishes the dev tarball.

As per coding guidelines, keep documentation current; this wording conflicts with the documented dry-run behavior.
