Render the WinGet and Chocolatey packages of a published release - #112
packaging/build-feeds.ps1 renders the WinGet manifests and the Chocolatey packages of one published release. It submits nothing: a pull request to microsoft/winget-pkgs and a choco push stay separate steps.
the window
the command line
WinGet
DonislawDev.BetterWindowsServices
DonislawDev.BetterWindowsServices.CLI
Chocolatey
better-windows-services
better-windows-services-cli
installs
BetterWindowsServices-win-x64.msi, and in WinGet the window zip second for --scope user
bws-cli-win-x64.zip
Installer first. Only the installer gives a Start menu entry. The window zip stays second, for --scope user and for portable installs to keep upgrading.
ProductCode on the installer entry, read out of the release's own MSI. WinGet looks an installed program up by the installer's ProductCode (SearchSourceUsingManifest), not by AppsAndFeaturesEntries. Without it, upgrading or uninstalling from a manifest found nothing.
Own folder on PATH, no link (ArchiveBinariesDependOnPath: true) for both archives. Each folder holds the program, its licence and its notices. The window restarts as administrator from its own path, and no link named bws.exe is made.
Chocolatey window = the same MSI. It is found again by its UpgradeCode to uninstall. The command line package unpacks the release archive and gets one shim.
Refusals. The script refuses a folder that is not the published release: SHA256SUMS lines, every hash, each program's version, the installer's version and UpgradeCode, and a signature by the pinned certificate with a timestamp.
Verification
Render of v0.5.0 from the published files: 11 files. winget validate succeeds on both manifests, and every URL answers 200. The exception is packageSourceUrl, which needs this branch on main.
WinGet and Chocolatey packages are now available for the Windows GUI and command-line tools.
The command-line package can be installed as a portable archive, while the GUI package supports installer and portable options.
Improvements
Packages are generated only for valid, signed releases with matching versions and checksums, helping ensure downloads correspond to the published release.
packaging/build-feeds.ps1 renders two packages per feed from the files of
one published release: DonislawDev.BetterWindowsServices and
DonislawDev.BetterWindowsServices.CLI on WinGet, better-windows-services
and better-windows-services-cli on Chocolatey. It submits nothing.
- The window's WinGet manifest lists the Windows installer first, with the
ProductCode read out of that file, and the window archive second for
--scope user. WinGet finds an installed program for a manifest by the
installer's ProductCode, not by AppsAndFeaturesEntries.
- Both archives put their own folder on PATH instead of a link. The
folders hold our files only, and no link named bws.exe is made.
- The Chocolatey window package runs the same installer and finds it again
by its UpgradeCode. The command line package unpacks the release archive
and gets one shim.
- The script refuses a folder that is not the published release: the sums,
every hash, the version of each program and of the installer, the pinned
signature with a timestamp, and the installer's UpgradeCode.
FeedGuards holds the shape of the templates, the published names and the
refusals, and 15 mutation entries prove it. PwshScript is now the one
runner the guards start packaging scripts with.

Walkthrough
The pull request adds a PowerShell script that validates a published release and renders WinGet and Chocolatey packages for the GUI and CLI. It also adds package templates and architecture tests for release validation, package contents, and installer behavior.
Changes: Release feed generation
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Release validation and output boundary packaging/build-feeds.ps1, tests/Bws.Architecture.Tests/FeedGuards.cs, tests/Bws.Architecture.Tests/PwshScript.cs, tests/Bws.Architecture.Tests/InstallerGuards.cs, tests/mutation/entries.ps1
The script validates release tags, checksums, files, archive programs, signatures, and MSI identity. It rejects unsafe or existing output destinations. Architecture tests exercise validation failures and use a shared PowerShell process runner.
Package templates and rendering packaging/build-feeds.ps1, packaging/winget/*, packaging/chocolatey/*, tests/Bws.Architecture.Tests/FeedGuards.cs, tests/mutation/entries.ps1
The script prepares package metadata, renders the WinGet and Chocolatey templates, and publishes staged output. The templates define GUI and CLI package manifests and install behavior. Architecture tests check package identities, installer entries, and install scripts.
The packages are mergeable with bounded follow-up, but locally repacked releases can produce unusable download hashes, malformed archives can exhaust temporary disk space, and package descriptions need corrections. Additional tests would improve confidence in generated output and installer identity checks.

Full details: Tests For Changed Behavior
Explanation
The PR adds tests for the new feed-rendering behavior in tests/Bws.Architecture.Tests/FeedGuards.cs. The tests cover WinGet installer ordering and PATH behavior, Chocolatey install and uninstall behavior, package names, UpgradeCode sourcing, release validation, signatures, version checks, and output-directory safety. tests/mutation/entries.ps1 adds 15 mutations mapped to these guards. No tests were deleted, skipped, or weakened; the InstallerGuards change only moves the existing process runner into PwshScript.
Full details: No Secrets Or Debug Leftovers
Explanation
No failure condition is introduced. The changed-file inventory contains no CLAUDE.md, CLAUDE.local.md, AGENTS.md, .claude/, or .env files. Added-line searches found no credentials, tokens, API keys, personal emails, hardcoded local absolute paths, internal hostnames/IPs, or debug calls. The output calls are functional behavior: refusal/error reporting, successful render reporting, Chocolatey user guidance, and test diagnostics. The URLs are public schema and jsDelivr URLs.
Full details: No Hardcoded Ui Styling
Explanation
The pull request does not add or change GUI code. The diff contains PowerShell packaging scripts, WinGet and Chocolatey templates, C# tests, and mutation entries. It contains no XAML, Slint, Fyne, Tkinter, or WPF UI implementation, and no hardcoded UI styling issue applies.
Full details: No Obvious Performance Problems
Explanation
No clear performance problem is introduced. The changed code renders a fixed set of two packages and three release files, with small bounded loops over templates and archive entries. Hashing and signature checks run once per required release file, not over an unbounded collection. No UI-thread work, large bound collections, polling, or avoidable per-item batch operation is present.
Full details: Desktop Robustness
Explanation
PASS — The PR changes packaging scripts, feed templates, and tests, not desktop application code. build-feeds.ps1 resolves templates from $PSScriptRoot and stages rendered files in a temporary sibling directory before an atomic directory move. It uses invariant casing for hashes and fixed textual release dates, and it has no background work, app settings writes, or runtime network calls. The machine-scoped installer is limited to installation; the manifests also provide a user-scope portable option, and the generated descriptions state when administrator rights are needed.
Full details: Safe File Parsing
Explanation
The new parser accepts unbounded archive input. Expand-Checked calls ZipFile.OpenRead and ZipFileExtensions.ExtractToFile at packaging/build-feeds.ps1:193-208 without limits on archive size, entry size, entry count, or expanded bytes. A SHA256SUMS entry does not prevent a crafted or oversized ZIP from exhausting scratch-disk space or delaying the run before the later version and signature checks. The new script also builds release paths with Join-Path $folder $name at lines 129-133, while msiName and package zip values from components.json are only checked for non-empty values at lines 348-350 and 173-182. Rooted or traversal names, or reparse points in the release folder, can make Get-FileHash, signature checks, and MSI parsing read outside the release folder. Finally, both ConvertFrom-Json calls at lines 342 and 363 are outside error handling, so malformed repository JSON terminates the script with an unhandled parser error instead of the documented refusal.
Resolution
Before opening an artifact, require a bounded single relative filename and resolve it with Path.GetFullPath; reject rooted paths, .., directory separators, and reparse points, and require the canonical path to remain under the release directory. For archive validation, replace ZipFileExtensions.ExtractToFile with a bounded ZipArchiveEntry.Open() stream copy. Reject excessive archive length, entry count, entry length, and cumulative expansion, and enforce a timeout or cancellation while copying. Bound and catch all JSON and text reads; use a strict JSON parser with schema validation and convert parse failures to Stop-Render. Apply a size limit and an isolated timeout to WindowsInstaller.Installer.OpenDatabase before reading an untrusted MSI.
Full details: System Changes Are Reversible
Explanation
The PR adds new installation paths that modify registry-backed machine state. The WinGet window manifest selects the MSI at packaging/winget/installer.window.yaml.in:26-45, and the Chocolatey window script invokes it at packaging/chocolatey/tools/chocolateyinstall.window.ps1.in:17-33. The repository documents that this MSI creates HKLM\SOFTWARE\DonislawDev\Better Windows Services, Start menu and PATH entries, and an Apps entry (README.md:84-93). The new uninstaller only invokes MSI removal and deliberately leaves ProgramData\BetterWindowsServices; it does not save and restore prior state on interruption, crash, app close, or next start.
Resolution
Do not expose the MSI through these new feed packages unless the installer path records the pre-change registry, PATH, shortcut, and application-data state and restores it on failed or interrupted installation and on the required lifecycle events. Make the restore operation visible and user-controlled. Ensure uninstall removes only state created by this package, including the documented ProgramData folder, or remove the package path from this PR.
Full details: Clear User-Facing Text
Explanation
The new build-feeds.ps1 exposes user-facing refusal errors that often state only the condition, not the corrective action. Examples include SHA256SUMS ... is not UTF-8 text (line 115), lists $name twice (line 122), checksum mismatch (line 134), and version or UpgradeCode mismatches (lines 392-396). Several read/move failures also append provider-specific exception text through Get-Reason (lines 159, 202, 211, and 560), which can expose raw exception messages. No button or confirmation issues apply.
Resolution
Update each Stop-Render error to state the failure and the next action. For example: SHA256SUMS is not UTF-8 text. Download the release SHA256SUMS file again and run build-feeds.ps1.; SHA256SUMS lists $name twice. Remove the duplicate entry or download the release file again.; $name does not match SHA256SUMS. Download the matching release files and checksum file, then rerun.; $msiName is version ... but the tag is .... Use the installer from the tagged release. Replace Get-Reason $_ interpolation with stable, actionable messages such as The release archive could not be read. Replace it with the archive downloaded from the tagged release. Keep diagnostic details out of the normal user-facing error.
Full details: No Resource Leaks
Explanation
The PR adds two unreleased resource owners. packaging/chocolatey/tools/chocolateyuninstall.window.ps1.in:16 creates a WindowsInstaller.Installer COM object and never calls ReleaseComObject; this includes the early return, normal completion, and error paths. tests/Bws.Architecture.Tests/FeedGuards.cs:301-302 creates a JsonDocument and returns only its RootElement, so each call loses ownership without disposing the document.
Resolution
Wrap the Chocolatey uninstall logic in try/finally and release $installer with [Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::ReleaseComObject($installer) in the finally block. Change FeedGuards.Register() to dispose the document before returning, for example by returning document.RootElement.Clone() from a using-scoped JsonDocument, or return JsonDocument and dispose it at every caller.
Full details: Scope, Duplication And Docs
Explanation
Documentation is incomplete, and the PR preserves a duplicated PowerShell process runner. packaging/build-feeds.ps1 adds the public maintainer-facing -Tag, -Release, and -OutDir interface (lines 48-63) and adds WinGet and Chocolatey distribution paths, but no README, docs, or CHANGELOG file changed. README's download table still lists only the MSI and ZIP files (README.md:66-75). The new PwshScript helper duplicates the existing SigningRitualGuards.Execute process-launch, output-capture, timeout, and kill pattern; only InstallerGuards uses the helper. The package-feed feature is described in the PR text, but the repository documentation is not updated.
Resolution
Update README.md with WinGet and Chocolatey installation details and the exact build-feeds.ps1 -Tag -Release -OutDir rendering command, constraints, and publishing boundary. Add the user-facing package-manager support to CHANGELOG.md under Unreleased. Generalize PwshScript to run arbitrary PowerShell argument lists or extract its process runner, then refactor SigningRitualGuards.Execute to use it and remove the duplicate implementation.

No test in FeedGuards.cs runs packaging/build-feeds.ps1 to completion.

The render step (Write-Rendered, lines 326 and 546 of packaging/build-feeds.ps1) runs in no test. The .in template checks read template text only, so they do not check substituted values. A renderer regression that leaves a {{ placeholder or writes a file to the wrong path would not fail the suite.
A success-path test would assert that each rendered file exists under the output folder, contains no {{ placeholder, and contains the expected values.
The fixtures in this file are signed by a different certificate, so they cannot pass the signature check. The signature check must stay in place. Choose a fixture design for this step before writing the test.

Check local digests against the published release before rendering.
The renderer compares each file only with the folder's own SHA256SUMS. A repacked archive that contains a validly signed program passes every check, and its emitted hash then fails against the published asset. As per path instructions, package manager manifests must have hashes that match the release artifacts. Compare each hash with the published asset digest first, as packaging/sign-release.ps1 does.

Update the hash validation in the build-feeds flow after Read-Sums so each
artifact’s local digest is also verified against its published release asset
digest before rendering. Reuse the established published-digest comparison from
sign-release.ps1, while retaining the existing SHA256SUMS checks and
Assert-Hashed validations.

…the program
The renderer copied each program out of its archive before asking its
signature, and with no limit. The .NET reader stops a compressed entry at
the size its header declares but reads a stored one to the end of its data,
so the copy now refuses a declared size past 1 GiB and counts the bytes it
writes, refusing an entry that holds more than it declares.
Three sentences of the package descriptions said more than the program does:
- what should be up and is not is mismatch:stopped, the question the window
asks, since start:auto !status:running also answers per-user templates and
services a trigger starts, which are stopped by design
- --json is taken by the commands that read or change a service, and
license, tool and tool fix refuse it
- the tool reaches no network unless --follow-network is passed
FeedGuards binds each WinGet id, Chocolatey id and moniker to the block of
its own package, so two packages with their names swapped no longer pass,
and gains two archives whose headers lie about the size of their program.
The Chocolatey uninstall script releases its Windows Installer objects on
every path. SigningRitualGuards runs pwsh through PwshScript, which leaves
one copy of the process runner. Three mutation entries show the new checks
can fail.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The header patching added for the archives that lie about their size took
FeedGuards.cs to 308 lines of code, the fifth test file within 70% of the
406-line ceiling where four are allowed. The archives FeedGuards writes -
from named entries, and with a header that lies about the size of an
entry - are the bytes of the zip format rather than rules of a package,
so they move unchanged to ReleaseArchive.
