| description | Daily fleet-repo maintenance that promotes soak-cleared dependency exclusions. Runs check-soak-exclude-dates --fix to drop minimumReleaseAgeExclude entries whose 7-day soak has passed, then reconciles the lockfile. Sibling of updating-coverage / updating-security / updating-lockstep under the updating umbrella; the lightweight daily counterpart to the weekly /updating run. |

updating-daily
The daily, cheap maintenance pass: promote dependency soak-exclusions that have cleared their 7-day minimumReleaseAge window. A soak-exclude is a temporary bypass; once the package is old enough to install normally, the bypass is dead weight and should come out. Invoked daily by daily-update.yml (which routes through the same socket-registry reusable as the weekly run, opening a PR), or directly via /update-daily.
When to use
- The daily scheduled run (the workflow passes
updating-skill: updating-daily).
- Any time you want to clear soaked exclusions from
pnpm-workspace.yaml.
What it does NOT do
- npm version bumps. That's the weekly
/updating umbrella's job (taze, lockstep, submodules). Daily is soak-promotion only — small, predictable, safe to run unattended.
- Add exclusions. Adding a soak-bypass is the
Allow minimumReleaseAge bypass flow, not this skill.
- Touch repo-local non-exclude settings. Only
minimumReleaseAgeExclude entries are promoted; the rest of pnpm-workspace.yaml is untouched.
Phases
| # | Phase | Outcome |
|---|
| 1 | Promote | node scripts/check-soak-exclude-dates.mts --fix removes every entry whose removable: date has passed (the bullet + its # published/removable annotation). |
| 2 | Reconcile | If step 1 changed pnpm-workspace.yaml, run pnpm install so the lockfile matches the slimmed catalog/exclude set. |
| 3 | Report | If nothing was promoted, exit cleanly with no diff — the workflow opens no PR. Otherwise the changed files (pnpm-workspace.yaml + pnpm-lock.yaml) become the PR. |
Run
node scripts/check-soak-exclude-dates.mts --fix
pnpm install
--fix prints each promoted entry on stdout and is a no-op (clean exit, no
write) when nothing has soaked. A no-change run leaves the tree clean, so the
wrapping workflow opens no PR.
Commit shape
The change is mechanical and needs no tracking: chore(deps): promote soaked exclusions. List the promoted pkg@ver entries in the body. Cascade commits
and this daily promotion are exempt from the prose skill.
