* fix(release): prevent untagged fallback from tauri publish
Set explicit github-script output for release_id and validate it before build jobs.
This prevents tauri-action from creating untagged releases when release id wiring
breaks and keeps assets attached to the intended app-v tag release.
* fix(release): add source-only promote mode and harden release binding
Add a source_only dispatch option to promote workflows and propagate it into
channel publish so maintainers can skip platform builds and verify-nix when needed.
Also validate release/tag/commit binding to prevent untagged fallback and ensure
source archives stay aligned with the intended app-v tag.
When an existing app-v tag points to a different commit than source_ref,
re-point it to the checked out source commit and continue publishing.
This preserves Source code archive correctness without blocking artifact release.
Ensure GitHub release tags are created from the checked out channel ref and fail
early if an existing tag points to a different commit. This keeps Source code
archives aligned with built artifacts and prevents mixed-release snapshots.
* ci(release): sync Cargo/tauri versions after npm version on promote
Keep bundle artifact names aligned with package.json by updating
src-tauri/Cargo.toml and tauri.conf.json when promoting channel branches.

* ci(release): sync Cargo/tauri in post-release dev bump PR
Run the same package.json→Tauri sync after bumping main to the next -dev
version so local builds match auto-generated PR contents.
An empty VERSION produced the invalid GitHub tag "app-v" and broke
update-manifest downloads (release tag mismatch).
Validate semver prefix, write package version via heredoc to GITHUB_OUTPUT,
and refuse to compute tag app-v.

* ci(release): split channel pipelines and automate version transitions
Introduce dedicated next/release orchestration workflows backed by a reusable publish pipeline with RC/final package version updates and post-release main dev bump PRs. Add a strict release process SOP with RC freeze, hotfix override, and mandatory backport rules.
* ci(release): gate main-to-next promotion on green CI
Add a dedicated workflow that validates main branch checks/statuses and block the promote-main-to-next flow unless main is green. Update the release SOP to reflect the enforced pre-promotion validation.
* ci(release): fix channel promotion edge cases and policy gaps
Switch channel promotions to reset-based snapshots with force-with-lease pushes, stop auto-merging channel nix-refresh PRs, and guard main dev bump against version downgrades. Add RC changelog fallback, require AUR release updates in SOP, and extend npmDepsHash sync to main/next/release pushes.
* docs(release): clarify backport and nix refresh survivability rules
Require RC fix backports to reach main before the next main-to-next promotion, and document that channel-local nix refresh PRs are advisory unless equivalent changes are merged into main.
