Description

The stable release of 0.1.1260 failed after npm had already published it:

  • npm publish started at 20:08 UTC, and the version landed at 21:07:33.
  • The post-publish wait_for_npm_git_head check polls for a hard-coded 60 × 5s = 5 minutes. It gave up at 21:06:50, 43 seconds too early, and reported Published veryfront@0.1.1260 gitHead is , expected f9a278ca….
  • The job therefore stopped before creating the git tag, the GitHub releases (with binaries) and the downstream dispatch. veryfront@0.1.1260 is latest on npm with the correct gitHead, but nothing downstream exists. Because the stable path is fail-closed, recovery needs a version bump.

This makes the wait configurable and defaults it to 30 minutes: NPM_GIT_HEAD_WAIT_ATTEMPTS=180 × NPM_GIT_HEAD_WAIT_DELAY_SECONDS=10. The 30 minutes are a shared deadline for the whole release (NPM_GIT_HEAD_WAIT_TOTAL_SECONDS=1800), not per package: about 30 packages publish one after another, so per-package waits could add up past the 6-hour job limit and leave a partial publish. Only time spent in metadata lookups and waits counts toward it (a stalled npm view is charged too), so slow publishes of later packages do not consume it. Once it is spent, each remaining package does one confirmation read. Each lookup is bounded with --fetch-timeout (NPM_GIT_HEAD_LOOKUP_TIMEOUT_MS, default 60000) and --fetch-retries=1, so a stalled registry read cannot run npm's default ~15 minutes. The worst case is the budget plus ~30 bounded confirmations, well under the 6-hour job limit. A gitHead mismatch still fails immediately.

Verification

  • New tests:
    • metadata appearing at read Veryfront project returns 404 on root path #100 (beyond the former 60-read window) is accepted;
    • the wait is bounded by NPM_GIT_HEAD_WAIT_ATTEMPTS (3 reads plus the final confirmation, then failure);
    • one deadline is shared across packages (with a spent budget, each package makes one read plus a confirmation);
    • only waiting time counts (a clock jump does not consume the budget);
    • slow registry lookups, including successful ones, are charged to the budget;
    • every wait lookup carries the bounded fetch timeout and retry flags.
  • deno task test:file scripts/ci/publish-npm-packages.test.ts: 47 steps pass. deno fmt --check, deno lint and bash -n pass.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Reliability

    • Improved npm package publishing by bounding metadata checks with configurable attempt, delay, lookup-timeout, and total-wait limits.
    • Added a final metadata check when the shared wait budget is exhausted.
  • Tests

    • Expanded coverage for delayed metadata availability, wait limits, shared release-wide budgets, slow registry lookups, and lookup timeout settings.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The release script now uses configurable attempt, delay, total-time, and lookup-timeout limits for npm gitHead polling. Tests cover delayed metadata, shared budgets, elapsed lookup time, final checks, and fetch arguments.

Changes

npm gitHead polling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Polling controls and lookup flow
scripts/ci/publish-npm-packages.sh
Adds configurable polling defaults, tracks elapsed wait time across packages, applies npm fetch timeout and retry options, and performs a final lookup when the budget or attempt limit is reached.
Polling behavior validation
scripts/ci/publish-npm-packages.test.ts
Adds tests for delayed gitHead metadata, attempt limits, shared budgets, lookup duration accounting, timeout arguments, and lookup counting.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to bb971

Slow final registry confirmations can extend an npm release beyond its configured shared wait limit. Charge those reads to the budget before merging.

Code Review: 93/100 — Excellent

Small, well-reasoned, and well-tested fix for a real incident. Ready to merge pending human approval.

Strengths:

  • Root cause is precisely diagnosed with concrete timestamps from the failed 0.1.1260 release, and the fix is minimal: two hardcoded constants (60 attempts / 5s sleep) become overridable env vars (NPM_GIT_HEAD_WAIT_ATTEMPTS, NPM_GIT_HEAD_WAIT_DELAY_SECONDS), defaulting to 30 minutes total. No behavioral changes beyond the wait window — an immediate gitHead mismatch still fails fast.
  • New tests directly target the regression: one proves metadata landing at read Veryfront project returns 404 on root path #100 (beyond the old 60-read ceiling) now succeeds, the other proves the wait is still bounded (3 attempts + 1 final confirmation read, then failure) — good coverage of both the fix and its limit.
  • I checked .github/workflows/cicd.yml: neither the release job nor the prerelease job (nor their npm-publish steps) sets a timeout-minutes that this longer wait could blow through, confirming the PR description's claim.
  • Diff is tightly scoped to the script and its test file — no unrelated changes.

Minor, non-blocking nits:

  • wait_for_npm_git_head is also called from the conflict-retry path used by rc-publish (prerelease). This change silently extends that path's max wait from 5 to 30 minutes too, which seems fine given no timeout there, but the PR description frames this as a stable-release-only fix — worth a one-line mention that RC publishes get the same longer window.
  • The pre-existing test titled "tolerates npm gitHead metadata appearing after 120 seconds" is now slightly stale in spirit (delay changed 5s → 10s, though the test mocks sleep so it isn't actually time-based). Not something this PR needs to fix.
