app-deploy

A release procedure for publishing a new kendex version, including its version files, changelog, tag, and update feed. Kendex is the software project this procedure belongs to.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare and publish a kendex release, create the version tag, push it, and manage the draft release and distribution packages.
Why use it?
It prevents release details from getting out of sync, such as a version number that does not match its tag or a changelog that was not prepared correctly.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

app-deploy scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured today.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Release kendex

  1. Bump the workspace version in Cargo.toml and the version in crates/app/tauri.conf.json — both must equal the tag minus the v, or the update feed no-ops or loops.
  2. Run .agents/skills/growth-guards/scripts/changelog-entries --collate to fold the changelog.d fragments into CHANGELOG.md's Unreleased. A nonzero exit halts the release: read its message, fix the fragment or CHANGELOG.md, run it again. Then move those entries under a new ## [<version>] - <date> heading, leaving an empty ## [Unreleased] above it; confirm every breaking change carries its Breaking call-out and migration note.
  3. Commit with GROWTH_GUARDS_CHANGELOG_COLLATE=1 — that declaration is what makes CHANGELOG.md count as the entry this commit owes for the version bump under crates/, whose fragments the collator just deleted, and the commit-msg lane refuses the commit without it. Then tag v<version> and push the tag. CI builds each target and publishes a draft GitHub Release with CLI binaries, app bundles, and feed.json (details: docs/RELEASING.md).
  4. Review the draft, then publish it — publishing is what makes the version "latest" for self-update.

Distro packaging (Arch, Fedora, Ubuntu…) would hook in after the draft exists; no such pipelines are built yet.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
