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/fleet/check/soak-excludes-have-dates.mts --fix removes every entry whose removable: date has passed — the bullet plus 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/fleet/check/soak-excludes-have-dates.mts --fix
# then, only if pnpm-workspace.yaml changed:
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.
