From 069f926a3274f609b87aa070cf532c0ef8797e46 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gabor Demeter Date: Fri, 14 Aug 2026 16:49:47 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] Docs: point CLAUDE.md at docs/ and install the L2 AI layer CLAUDE.md duplicated docs/pipeline-map.md and docs/architecture.md inline. Replaced with summaries plus links; the docs were already the better source. Verified every fact in the removed text against the two routed docs before cutting it - nothing was dropped, it was already covered there. Adds the gforce-github-actions skill (lockfile) and the gha-workflow-author agent, and AGENTS.md as a symlink for cross-vendor coverage. Also fixes two pre-existing defects in docs/ surfaced by reviewing the new skill, since it now routes every session straight to these files: - docs/consuming-sf-cicd.md still pointed at the frozen v1 release tag and told readers to copy examples/sf-pr-validate.yml and examples/sf-release.yml, filenames that do not exist post-rename (they are reusable-sf-pr-validate.yml and reusable-sf-release.yml now). Its sibling consuming-sf-dispatch.md was updated to v2 during the rename; this one was missed. Fixed both. - docs/claude-actions-reference.md was missing entries for six assets added in PR #27 and PR #28: sf-artifact-build, sf-artifact-deploy, sf-env-config-apply, reusable-sf-org-deploy, smoke-sf-artifact, and smoke-sf-org-login. Added an entry for each, sourced from each asset's own action.yml / workflow file.

That claim was inaccurate: the removed text named ApexTestSelectionService and package.xml parsing as the substance of libraries/salesforce, and neither appeared anywhere under docs/ - architecture.md described that directory only generically. Restored the detail to docs/architecture.md (the doc that owns code layering), not back into CLAUDE.md, which is already near its 150-line budget. Also: - docs/consuming-sf-cicd.md: the @v1 fix in 069f926 was incomplete. Lines 9, 18, 52 and 55 still used the pre-rename short names sf-pr-validate.yml / sf-release.yml while the real files, examples/README.md, and this doc's own link targets all use reusable-sf-pr-validate.yml / reusable-sf-release.yml - line 52 was self-contradictory within one link. Completed the rename throughout; re-read the file end to end afterward and found no remaining v1 references, no dead paths, and no contradiction with consuming-sf-dispatch.md. - docs/claude-actions-reference.md: sf-artifact-build's head-commit entry claimed a default of GITHUB_SHA; the action.yml declares default: "" with the $GITHUB_SHA fallback applied in the script body at runtime. Corrected. - docs/claude-actions-reference.md: the smoke-sf-artifact.yml entry called reject-validate-without-tests "a fifth job" while conflating it with the workflow's five-property header comment. The workflow has 4 jobs (build-artifact covers properties 1/3/4, unset-replacement-fails covers 2, reject-tampered-artifact covers 5); reject-validate-without-tests is the 4th job, sitting outside the five-property enumeration. Reworded. - docs/claude-actions-reference.md: the note flagging that sf-org-login predates PR #16's credential-source: github-env input lived only at the end of the smoke-sf-org-login.yml entry (~line 396), 280 lines from the stale sf-org-login entry itself (~line 115) where an editor would actually need it. Added a one-line pointer at the sf-org-login entry; left the existing note in place. The underlying staleness is still out of scope.

Two are in service today — `E2E_DISPATCH_TOKEN` in sf-docker-images and `CATALOG_SCAN_TOKEN` here. A PAT is the worst credential available for the job: it belongs to a person, it has account-wide scope, it never expires on its own, and it dies with the account. An App installation token is better on all four counts, but only if it is actually scoped. `actions/create-github-app-token` is generous in two directions at once — omit `repositories` and the token reaches every repo in the installation; omit every `permission-*` and it inherits every permission the App holds. Do both and the replacement for an over-broad PAT is an over-broad token that merely expires sooner. So this action refuses to mint until the caller has named the repositories AND named the permissions. `allow-broad-scope: true` is the deliberate opt-out, and it logs a warning saying so. Also validated here, because each failure is otherwise diagnosed from a bare 401/404 in a later step: - neither client-id nor app-id set (an unshared org variable arrives as an empty string, indistinguishable from never passing one) - a private key without its PEM armour - an empty private key `client-id` is preferred; upstream deprecated the numeric `app-id` in v3, and both are accepted so a caller can migrate without a flag day. Three CI smoke steps pin the guards. They run with a throwaway key and no App credentials at all, which is the point — the two scope rejections would otherwise SUCCEED and hand back a working, over-broad token. Verified locally across 11 input combinations before wiring: every reject case rejects, every scoped case passes, and `allow-broad-scope` still opens the door. Registered with Dependabot per the authoring convention — the action carries a third-party `uses:`, and composite directories are not covered by "/".

Verify + +The next `sf-ci` pull request exercises all three token mints. In the job log the action +prints its own scope: + +``` +✅ Minted an installation token + App: gforce-ci-bot (installation 12345678) + Owner: Gforce-Innovation-Kft + Repositories: sf-develop-demo + Permissions: + actions write + contents read + Expires: 1 hour from now +``` + +Failure modes, in the order they actually happen: + +| Symptom | Cause | +| --------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | +| `Pass client-id (preferred) or app-id. Both were empty` | the org variable is not shared with the calling repo — an unshared org variable arrives as an empty string, not an error | +| `private-key does not look like a PEM` | the key was pasted without its `-----BEGIN-----`/`-----END-----` lines | +| 404 on the installation lookup | App registered but not installed on that repo | +| 403 on `PATCH /orgs/.../packages/...` | the **organization** Packages permission is missing (the repository one was granted instead) | +| `repositories is empty` / `No permission-* input was set` | the caller did not scope the token; this is the action refusing to mint, not a misconfiguration | + +## Rotating the key + +Generate a new private key on the App page, run the `gh secret set` above again, then +delete the old key from the App. In that order — the reverse breaks every in-flight run. + +Nothing else needs to change: no workflow holds the key, only the org secret does. + +## Retiring the PATs + +`gforce-ci-bot` replaces `E2E_DISPATCH_TOKEN` (removed from `sf-docker-images` in +`feat(ci)!: authenticate the E2E gate as a GitHub App`). The fleet's other PAT, +`CATALOG_SCAN_TOKEN` in this repo's `catalog-refresh.yml`, can move to the same App — +it needs org-wide `contents: read` plus `pull-requests: write`, so it wants +`allow-broad-scope: true` or an explicit repository list, and is worth doing as its own +change.
