-# painlessMesh Release Guide
+# AlteriomPainlessMesh Release Guide
 
-This document provides comprehensive instructions for releasing new versions of the Alteriom painlessMesh library across all distribution channels.
+This repository publishes one version to the Arduino Library Manager,
+PlatformIO, npm, GitHub Packages, and GitHub Releases. A release starts only
+after the release pull request is reviewed, all required CI checks pass, and
+the version commit reaches `main`.
 
-## ⚠️ Important: Agent Requirements for Releases
+## Release checklist
 
-**Releases MUST be performed by Alteriom AI Agent (`@alteriom-ai-agent`) with full tool access.**
+1. Start from a clean branch based on the current release branch.
+2. Confirm the intended changes are documented under `Unreleased` in
+   [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md).
+3. Run the complete desktop, Arduino, PlatformIO, simulator, and hardware test
+   suites required by the pull request.
+4. Obtain approval and resolve every review conversation.
+5. After approval, select the next semantic version and update the version
+   metadata.
+6. Move the `Unreleased` changes to a dated version section.
+7. Run the release validation scripts.
+8. Merge the release pull request. Do not create a tag by hand; the release
+   workflow owns tags and publication.
 
-### Why This Matters
+   The workflow tags only when the push to `main` carries a version-file
+   change or a head commit whose message starts with `release:`. When the
+   version metadata was bumped earlier in the cycle (as for 2.0.0), merge the
+   release pull request with a commit titled `release: vX.Y.Z` — a squash or
+   merge commit with that title — or the push is ignored.
 
-A release requires updating 7 files consistently:
-1. library.properties
-2. library.json  
-3. package.json
-4. src/painlessMesh.h
-5. src/AlteriomPainlessMesh.h
-6. README.md
-7. CHANGELOG.md
+## Version metadata
 
-**✅ Correct Agent:** `@alteriom-ai-agent`
-- Has file editing tools (`replace_string_in_file`, `multi_replace_string_in_file`)
-- Can run terminal commands (`run_in_terminal`)
-- Can execute git operations
-- **Use this for release preparation**
+These files must always contain the same semantic version:
 
-**❌ Wrong Agent:** `@painlessmesh-coordinator` or specialized agents without tools
-- Lack file editing capabilities
-- Can only provide documentation/checklists
-- Cannot actually perform releases
-- Will result in manual work
+- `library.properties`
+- `library.json`
+- `package.json`
 
-### Agent-Assisted Release (Recommended)
+Use the repository script to change them together:
 
 ```bash
-# Ask Alteriom AI Agent to prepare release
-@alteriom-ai-agent Prepare release v1.9.9 with these changes:
-- Fixed ESP8266 WiFiClientSecure scope issue  
-- Fixed TCP retry crash with AsyncClient cleanup
-
-# Agent will:
-# ✅ Update all 7 version files
-# ✅ Restructure CHANGELOG.md
-# ✅ Run validation: ./scripts/release-agent.sh
-# ✅ Commit: "release: v1.9.9 - Description"
-# ✅ Push to trigger automation
-```
-
-## 🚀 Quick Release Process
-
-### Standard Release (Manual)
-
-```bash
-# 1. Update version using the bump script
-./scripts/bump-version.sh patch  # or minor, major
-
-# 2. Update CHANGELOG.md with your changes
-# Add your changes under the new version section
-
-# 3. Update header file version comments (recommended)
-# Edit src/painlessMesh.h and src/AlteriomPainlessMesh.h
-# Update @version comments to match the new library version
-
-# 4. Run the Release Agent to validate readiness
-./scripts/release-agent.sh
-
-# 5. If all checks pass, commit and trigger release
-git add library.properties library.json package.json CHANGELOG.md src/*.h README.md
-git commit -m "release: v1.7.9 - Brief description"
-git push origin main
-```
-
-**That's it!** GitHub Actions will automatically handle:
-- ✅ Comprehensive testing across platforms
-- ✅ Git tag creation and GitHub release
-- ✅ NPM publishing (public + GitHub Packages)
-- ✅ **PlatformIO Library Registry publishing**
-- ✅ GitHub Wiki synchronization
-- ✅ Arduino Library Manager package preparation
-- ✅ Release notes generation from changelog
-
-## 📋 Distribution Channels
-
-### Automatic (Zero Manual Work Required)
-
-1. **GitHub Releases** - Created with changelog and downloadable packages
-2. **NPM Public Registry** - Published to <https://www.npmjs.com/package/@alteriom/painlessmesh>
-3. **GitHub Packages** - Published to GitHub's NPM registry (@alteriom/painlessmesh)
-4. **PlatformIO Registry** - Automatically published via GitHub Actions workflow
-5. **GitHub Wiki** - Documentation synchronized from repository
-
-### Semi-Automatic (One-Time Manual Submission)
-
-1. **Arduino Library Manager** - Submit once, then automatically indexed
-
-## 🎯 Detailed Process
-
-### Version Management
-
-> **📖 For detailed information about version management, see [VERSION_MANAGEMENT.md](docs/VERSION_MANAGEMENT.md)**
-
-**File Consistency**: All three files must have matching versions:
-
-```properties
-# library.properties
-version=1.6.1
-```
-
-```json
-// library.json  
-{
-  "version": "1.6.1"
-}
-```
-
-```json
-// package.json
-{
-  "version": "1.6.1"
-}
-```
-
-**Semantic Versioning**: Follow [semver.org](https://semver.org/):
-- **MAJOR**: Breaking changes (e.g., 1.6.0 → 2.0.0)
-- **MINOR**: New features, backward compatible (e.g., 1.6.0 → 1.7.0)  
-- **PATCH**: Bug fixes, backward compatible (e.g., 1.6.0 → 1.6.1)
-
-### Automation Triggers
-
-The release workflow triggers on commits to `main` that:
-1. Modify `library.properties`, `library.json`, `package.json`, or `CHANGELOG.md`
-2. Have version files modified OR commit message starting with `release:`
-
-### What Gets Automated

-
-## 📦 NPM Publishing Details
-
-### Dual Publishing Strategy
-
-Each release publishes to **two NPM registries**:
-
-1. **Public NPM** (npmjs.com)
-   - Package: `@alteriom/painlessmesh`
-   - Installation: `npm install @alteriom/painlessmesh`
-   - No authentication required
-
-2. **GitHub Packages** (npm.pkg.github.com)
-   - Package: `@alteriom/painlessmesh`
-   - Installation: Requires `.npmrc` configuration
-   - Authentication required for installation
-
-### NPM Package Contents
-
-The NPM package includes:
-- `src/` - Complete library source code
-- `examples/` - All Arduino examples
-- `docs/` - Documentation files
-- `library.properties` - Arduino metadata
-- `library.json` - PlatformIO metadata
-- Core documentation files (README, LICENSE, CHANGELOG)
-
-Excluded from NPM package:
-
-- Development files (`.github/`, `test/`, `scripts/`)
-- Build artifacts (`bin/`, `build/`)
-- IDE files and OS-specific files
-
-## 🔧 PlatformIO Library Registry
-
-### Automatic Publishing
-
-Each release triggers the **PlatformIO Library Publishing** workflow:
-
-1. **Validation**: Comprehensive library.json validation
-2. **Dependencies**: Verification that all dependencies exist in PlatformIO Registry
-3. **Authentication**: Uses `PLATFORMIO_AUTH_TOKEN` secret
-4. **Publication**: Direct publishing via PlatformIO CLI
-5. **Verification**: Post-publication registry verification
-
-### Setup Requirements
-
-#### One-Time Setup: PlatformIO Account & Token
-
-1. **Create Account**: <https://platformio.org/account/register>
-2. **Generate Token**: <https://platformio.org/account/token>
-3. **Add Secret**: Repository Settings → Secrets → `PLATFORMIO_AUTH_TOKEN`
-
-#### Automatic Workflow Trigger
-
-The PlatformIO workflow automatically triggers on:
-
-- New GitHub releases (tags)
-- Manual workflow dispatch for testing
-
-### PlatformIO Package Contents
-
-Published package includes:
-
-- Complete source code (`src/`)
-- All examples (`examples/`)
-- PlatformIO metadata (`library.json`)
-- Arduino compatibility (`library.properties`)
-- Documentation files
-
-### Installation
-
-Users can install via PlatformIO:
-
-```ini
-# platformio.ini
-[env:esp32dev]
-platform = espressif32
-board = esp32dev
-framework = arduino
-lib_deps = alteriom/AlteriomPainlessMesh@^1.6.1
-```
-
-Or via CLI:
-
-```bash
-pio pkg install --library "alteriom/AlteriomPainlessMesh@^1.6.1"
-```
-
-### Manual Publication (Fallback)
-
-If automatic publishing fails:
-
-```bash
-# Install PlatformIO CLI
-pip install platformio
-
-# Authenticate
-pio account token --set YOUR_TOKEN
-
-# Publish from repository root
-pio pkg publish .
+./scripts/bump-version.sh patch
 ```
 
-### Monitoring
-
-- **Registry**: <https://registry.platformio.org/libraries>
-- **Search**: <https://registry.platformio.org/search?q=AlteriomPainlessMesh>
-- **Workflow**: GitHub Actions → PlatformIO Library Publishing
-
-## 🛠️ Arduino Library Manager
+You may use `minor`, `major`, or an explicit version when the release plan
+requires it. Version 2.0 patch releases must remain wire-compatible with the
+2.0 protocol.
 
-### ✅ IMPORTANT: Library Name Fixed
+## Changelog
 
-**Current Status**: ✅ **REGISTERED AND FIXED**
-
-The library IS registered in the Arduino Library Manager. The issue was a library name change that prevented new versions from being indexed.
-
-**Issue Resolved**: Library name in `library.properties` has been restored to match the original registration.
-
-**Result**: New releases will now be automatically indexed by Arduino Library Manager within 24-48 hours.
-
-### One-Time Submission Process

-
-## 🚨 Troubleshooting
-
-### Common Issues
-
-**Version Mismatch Error**
-```bash
-# Fix version inconsistencies
-./scripts/bump-version.sh patch 1.6.2  # Force set version
-```
-
-**Missing Changelog Entry**
-```bash
-# Add changelog entry for current version
-vim CHANGELOG.md
-# Add section: ## [1.6.2] - YYYY-MM-DD
-```
-
-**Build Failures**
-```bash
-# Test locally before release
-npm run build
-npm run test
-```
-
-**NPM Token Invalid**
-```bash
-# Verify NPM authentication
-npm whoami
-# If not logged in: npm login
-```
-
-**GitHub Packages Authentication**
-```bash
-# Check if GITHUB_TOKEN has packages:write permission
-# Repository Settings → Actions → General → Permissions
-```
-
-**Wiki Update Failure**
-```bash
-# Wiki may need manual initialization
-# Go to: https://github.com/Alteriom/painlessMesh/wiki
-# Create any page to initialize, then re-run release
-```
-
-**NPM/GitHub Packages Not Published Automatically**
-
-The automated workflow triggers a release in two ways:
-
-1. **Automatic (Recommended)**: When version files are updated in a commit
-   - The workflow detects changes to `library.properties`, `library.json`, or `package.json`
-   - Automatically creates tag, release, and publishes packages when these files are modified
-   - Works seamlessly with PR merges and direct commits
-
-2. **Manual trigger**: Commit message starts with `release:` (lowercase with colon):
-
-```bash
-# ✅ Correct - Will trigger full release
-git commit -m "release: v1.7.7 - Complete mqtt-schema implementation"
-
-# ✅ Also works - Version file changes detected automatically
-# (No special commit message needed when library.properties/json/package.json are modified)
-git commit -m "Bump version to 1.7.8"
-```
-
-**Note**: If version files weren't modified and commit message doesn't start with "release:", the workflow will skip publishing.
-
-**Solution: Use Manual Publishing Workflow**
-
-If this happens, you can manually publish packages:
-
-1. Go to **Actions** → **Manual Package Publishing**
-2. Click **Run workflow**
-3. Select options:
-   - ✅ Publish to NPM Registry
-   - ✅ Publish to GitHub Packages
-4. Click **Run workflow**
-
-The manual workflow will:
-- Read the current version from `library.properties`
-- Publish to NPM (if selected)
-- Publish to GitHub Packages (if selected)
-- Show success/failure status for each
-
-Alternatively, from command line:
-```bash
-# Trigger via GitHub CLI
-gh workflow run manual-publish.yml
-```
-
-### Manual Override
-
-If automation fails, you can manually perform any step:
-
-```bash
-# Manual NPM publish
-npm publish --access public
-
-# Manual GitHub release  
-gh release create v1.6.2 --title "painlessMesh v1.6.2" --notes-file CHANGELOG.md
-
-# Manual tag creation
-git tag v1.6.2
-git push origin v1.6.2
-```
-
-## 🔍 Validation Commands
-
-### Pre-Release Checks
-```bash
-# Comprehensive validation
 ./scripts/validate-release.sh
-
-# Version consistency check
-./scripts/bump-version.sh --verify || echo "Use proper arguments"
-
-# NPM package validation
-npm run validate-library
-
-# Build test
-npm run build && npm run test
-```
-
-### Post-Release Verification
-```bash
-# Check NPM publication
-npm view @alteriom/painlessmesh
-
-# Check GitHub Packages
-npm view @alteriom/painlessmesh --registry=https://npm.pkg.github.com
-
-# Check PlatformIO Registry
-pio pkg search "AlteriomPainlessMesh"
-
-# Verify GitHub release
-gh release view
-
-# Check wiki update
-curl -s https://github.com/Alteriom/painlessMesh/wiki | grep -q "v1.6.2"
-```
-
-## 🎉 Success Indicators
-
-### Successful Release Shows:
-- ✅ GitHub release created with changelog
-- ✅ Git tag pushed to repository  
-- ✅ NPM package published (check npmjs.com)

-
-## 🌟 Advanced Topics
-
-### Custom Release Notes
-
-To customize release notes beyond the changelog:
-
-1. Edit the generated `release_notes.txt` in the workflow
-2. Or create a custom release notes file in `.github/release-template.md`
-
-### Environment-Specific Releases
-
-For testing releases:
-
-```bash
-# Use pre-release tags
-git tag v1.6.2-beta
-git push origin v1.6.2-beta
-
-# This creates a pre-release without full publication
+./scripts/release-agent.sh
 ```
 
-### Rollback Procedure
-
-If a release has issues:
+The pull request must also pass all required GitHub checks, including:
 
-```bash
-# Delete remote tag
-git push origin :refs/tags/v1.6.2
-
-# Delete local tag  
-git tag -d v1.6.2
-
-# Delete GitHub release
-gh release delete v1.6.2
-
-# Unpublish NPM package (contact npm support)
-# GitHub Packages: Delete from package settings
-```

-## 📊 Release Metrics
+- gcc, clang, and AddressSanitizer desktop builds
+- Arduino ESP32 and ESP8266 compilation
+- PlatformIO builds and build-flag validation
+- formatting and documentation checks
+- CodeQL
+- simulator scenarios
+- ESP32, ESP32-C3, and ESP32-S3 hardware-in-the-loop coverage when the change
+  touches radio, routing, gateway, OTA, or platform-specific behavior
 
-Monitor your releases:
-- **GitHub**: https://github.com/Alteriom/painlessMesh/releases
-- **NPM**: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@alteriom/painlessmesh
-- **PlatformIO**: https://registry.platformio.org/libraries/alteriom/painlessMesh
-- **Wiki**: https://github.com/Alteriom/painlessMesh/wiki
+For a hardware defect, attach the HIL run identifier and report link to the
+pull request. A unit test alone is not sufficient evidence for a radio or
+multi-device timing fix.
 
-## 🤝 Security & Permissions
+## Review gate
 
-### Required GitHub Secrets
+A release pull request is ready only when:
 
-- `GITHUB_TOKEN`: Automatically provided by GitHub Actions
-- `NPM_TOKEN`: Required for NPM publishing (add in repository secrets)
-- `PLATFORMIO_AUTH_TOKEN`: Required for PlatformIO Library Registry publishing
+- it has an approving review;
+- all review comments are resolved;
+- required checks are green on the final commit;
+- the branch is current with its target branch;
+- version metadata and changelog validation pass;
+- there are no unexplained skipped hardware scenarios.
 
-### Repository Settings
-- **Actions**: Enabled with write permissions
-- **Packages**: Enabled for GitHub Packages publication
-- **Wiki**: Enabled for documentation deployment
-- **Releases**: Public releases enabled
+Any code change after approval invalidates the approval and requires another
+review of the final commit.
 
----
+## Automated publication
 
-## Quick Reference
+When a qualifying version commit reaches `main`, `.github/workflows/release.yml`
+validates the metadata, creates the `vX.Y.Z` tag and GitHub release, uploads the
+Arduino archive, publishes npm and GitHub Packages, and dispatches the
+PlatformIO publication workflow.
 
-**Release a patch version:**
-```bash
-./scripts/bump-version.sh patch
-# Edit CHANGELOG.md
-git add . && git commit -m "release: v1.6.2" && git push
-```
+Monitor every publication job to completion. Verify the version is visible in
+each registry before announcing the release. Arduino Library Manager indexing
+can lag behind the GitHub release.
 
-**Check release status:**
-```bash
-./scripts/validate-release.sh
-```
+## Recovery
 
-**Monitor release:**
-- GitHub Actions: https://github.com/Alteriom/painlessMesh/actions
-- Releases: https://github.com/Alteriom/painlessMesh/releases
-- Documentation: https://github.com/Alteriom/painlessMesh/wiki
+Never reuse a published semantic version. If publication succeeds in one
+registry and fails in another, fix the credential or workflow problem and
+rerun only the failed publication path for the same tag. If shipped code is
+defective, prepare a new patch release rather than replacing the existing tag.
 
-For questions or issues with the release process, create an issue with the `ci/cd` label.
+Security-sensitive release failures or suspected credential exposure must be
+handled according to [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md).
