latest dist-tag#1234Conversation
…` dist-tag
The channel fallback in `packages/script/src/index.ts` was not prerelease-aware.
`release.yml` publishes with `OPENCODE_VERSION: ${{ github.ref_name }}`, so for a
beta tag that is `v0.10.0-beta.1`. If `OPENCODE_CHANNEL` ever failed to reach the
step, the chain fell through to the `OPENCODE_VERSION` branch, saw a version that
does not start with `0.0.0-`, and returned "latest" — moving the stable dist-tag
onto a beta and auto-upgrading every existing user on next launch. That is the
exact outcome the beta channel exists to prevent.
It has not happened: `release.yml` sets `OPENCODE_CHANNEL` from
`contains(github.ref_name, '-') && 'beta' || 'latest'`, which never evaluates
empty, there is exactly one publish step and it carries the variable, and all
three `npm publish` calls pass `--tag ${Script.channel}` with none publishing
bare. So today the hazard is masked entirely by one workflow expression.
That is thin protection for a whole-user-base blast radius, because the
documented recovery (`npm dist-tag add …@<good> latest`) needs npm publish
credentials most of the team does not hold. Detection without the ability to
remediate is not a safety net.
Extracted the decision into `packages/script/src/channel.ts` as a pure
`resolveChannel`, so it can be tested without importing the module that checks
the bun version, shells out to git and fetches the registry at import time. A
semver prerelease now resolves to `beta`; `0.0.0-` preview builds still fall
through to the branch-name channel, and ordinary stable versions still resolve
to `latest`.
Tests in `packages/opencode/test/release/channel.test.ts` cover both directions
plus the preview path. Mutation-verified: restoring the old `return "latest"`
fails exactly the prerelease regression test.
Closes #1233

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The release-channel change can misclassify stable versions containing hyphens in build metadata as beta, while conflicting release inputs can still place a prerelease on the latest channel. This could publish packages under the wrong npm dist-tag, so the PR is not merge-ready until the channel rules are corrected or explicitly accepted. Poem

Check only the SemVer prerelease component.
Line 29 checks for - anywhere in the full version string. A valid stable version such as 1.2.3+build-42 contains a hyphen in build metadata, so this returns "beta" instead of "latest". Inspect the portion before + or parse the SemVer prerelease component. Add this case to the stable-release test.
As per the PR objectives, stable versions must resolve to latest.

WARNING: This fork divergence is not wrapped in an altimate_change start/end block, so it will be lost on the next upstream merge.
packages/script/src/index.ts is upstream-shared (not in keepOurs/skipFiles), so the bridge-merge tool overlays it with upstream's version and only re-applies altimate_change start … altimate_change end blocks (extractMarkerBlocks in script/upstream/bridge-merge.ts; computeMarkedLines in script/upstream/analyze.ts only tracks start/end pairs). A bare // altimate_change — comment is not a block, so this resolveChannel divergence would be reverted to upstream's CHANNEL IIFE on the next merge — reintroducing the exact prerelease→latest bug this PR fixes. Wrap the divergence like the other three blocks in this file (lines 38–48, 56–62, 89–91).

SUGGESTION: altimate_change start is never closed — the matching altimate_change end is missing.
Line 1 opens a marker block with no end. Every other marker block in this codebase uses paired start/end markers, and the repo's own tooling flags unbalanced blocks (runRequireMarkersCheck in script/upstream/analyze.ts reports unbalanced markers (1 starts, 0 ends)). Add // altimate_change end at the end of the file to close the block.

Closes #1233
Audited while preparing the
v0.10.0beta. Split out of #1232 because it is unrelated to that release's content — this is release infrastructure, and it should be reviewable on its own.The failure case
.github/workflows/release.yml:338publishes withOPENCODE_VERSION: ${{ github.ref_name }}, which for a beta tag isv0.10.0-beta.1. IfOPENCODE_CHANNELever failed to reach that step, the fallback chain inpackages/script/src/index.tsran:OPENCODE_CHANNELempty → skippedOPENCODE_BUMPunset → skippedOPENCODE_VERSION→0.10.0-beta.1→ does not start with0.0.0-→ returnslatestAll three

Worth stating plainly, since the fix is precautionary:
release.yml:98and:344setOPENCODE_CHANNELto${{ contains(github.ref_name, '-') && 'beta' || 'latest' }}, which always yields one of those two strings and never empty.env:block.npm publishcalls inpublish.tspass--tag ${Script.channel}; none publishes bare.So the hazard is masked entirely by one workflow expression. Nothing in the fallback itself prevents it.
Why fix it anyway
The blast radius is the whole user base, and the documented recovery —
npm dist-tag add @altimateai/altimate-code@<good> latest— needs npm publish credentials that most of the team does not hold. Detection you cannot act on is not a safety net. The release process makes "confirmlatestdid not move" a mandatory post-publish assertion precisely because this class of mistake is unrecoverable for most people who would hit it.The change
