Release Readiness Check

Run a comprehensive validation before merging to main or publishing.

Checklist

Run each step and report results. Stop early if a critical failure is found.

1. Check branch state

   git status
   git log --oneline main..HEAD
   

   Verify: clean working tree, commits ahead of main

2. Verify changesets exist for affected packages

   ls .changeset/*.md 2>/dev/null
   pnpm nx affected --base=main -t build --dry-run
   

   Cross-reference: every affected non-private package should have a changeset entry. Packages in the changeset ignore list (dill-docs, repopo-docs) can be skipped. Verify bump types make sense (patch for fixes, minor for features, major for breaking).

3. Policy compliance

   ./packages/repopo/bin/dev.js check
   

   Must pass with zero violations.

4. Dependency sync

   pnpm syncpack list-mismatches
   

   Must have zero mismatches.

5. Build all affected packages

   pnpm nx affected -t build --base=main
   

   Must succeed with no errors.

6. Run all affected tests

   pnpm nx affected -t test --base=main
   

   Must pass with no failures.

7. Format and lint check

   pnpm nx affected -t check --base=main
   pnpm nx affected -t lint --base=main
   

   Must pass with no issues.

Report Format

Summarize results:

• Total affected packages
• Changeset coverage (which packages have changesets, which are missing)
• Build/test/lint status per package
• Any warnings or issues found
• Final verdict: READY or NOT READY with reasons
