fix: add a CHANGELOG gate to the release-beta process - #1281
Conversation
beta.5 was tagged without a changelog section (release-beta skill's gate list doesn't call one out) — fixing forward via PR. The already- built beta.5 binary still ships with beta.4 as its embedded latest entry, since the changelog is baked in at tag time; this is correct starting with the next beta.

beta.5 shipped without a changelog entry because the skill's gate checklist never asked for one, unlike the stable /release flow which has a natural checkpoint (release branch + PR review) that would have caught it. Adds it as gate 0 in Step 3, and calls out in Hard Rules that it must land on main before the tag exists -- the changelog is baked into the compiled binary at build time, so fixing it after tagging only helps the next beta, not the one just cut.

…ariant wording - packages/opencode/script/build.ts / packages/opencode/script/publish.ts, not script/build.ts at repo root (doesn't exist). - Resolve the previous beta tag with a real command instead of a literal <last-beta-tag> placeholder, which a shell parses as redirection into a file named "beta-tag>" rather than a git range. - The actual invariant is "in the tagged commit," not "on main" -- Step 4 already supports tagging a branch. main's branch protection needing a PR first is a separate, situational fact about that one ref, not a rule the release process itself imposes.

Select the previous beta from HEAD history.
git tag --list considers beta tags from all local branches. A higher beta tag on another branch can become LAST_BETA_TAG. The following git log can then use the wrong range and produce incorrect changelog content. Step 4 tags HEAD, so filter tags reachable from HEAD.
Proposed fix
-LAST_BETA_TAG=$(git tag --list 'v*-beta.*' --sort=-version:refname | head -1)
+LAST_BETA_TAG=$(git tag --list 'v*-beta.*' --merged HEAD --sort=-version:refname | head -1)📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Summary
release-beta.md's pre-tag gate checklist never included a changelog step, unlike the stable/releaseflow, which has a natural checkpoint (arelease/vX.Y.Zbranch + PR review) that would have caught this. Adds it as gate 0 in Step 3, and calls it out explicitly in Hard Rules: the changelog entry must exist in the commit being tagged, before the tag exists — it's baked into the compiled binary at build time, so a follow-up commit only helps the next beta, not the one just cut.CHANGELOG.mdsectionv0.11.0-beta.5itself should have shipped with, covering the three commits since beta.4: feat: expose Altimate Base registration over HTTP for non-TUI hosts #1266 (Altimate Base registration over HTTP for non-TUI hosts), fix: trim per-install-id line from Altimate Base consent gate; soften rate-limit wording #1268 (consent gate copy softened), fix: carry the IDE entry's env when wiring the datamate stdio MCP server #1081 (datamate stdio MCP server env fix).Follow-up tracked separately
#1282 tracks turning this from a documented step into an automated
release-preflight.tscheck, so a future release can't skip it the way beta.5 did.Note
The already-built
v0.11.0-beta.5binary still ships with beta.4 as its embedded "latest" changelog entry, since this PR necessarily lands after that tag. The new gate applies starting with beta.6.Test plan
