## Description
The 0.33.0 release PR (#2339) has sat in `changes-requested` since
2026-07-17. Root cause: **release-please only rewrites `pyproject.toml`
and its configured `extra-files`**, but other tracked files also carry
the version — and `server.json` is asserted byte-for-byte against
`render_server_json()`, which derives its version from `pyproject.toml`.
So the bump alone fails
`tests/test_mcp_registry/test_server_json.py::test_root_server_json_matches_builder`
(the `test (2)` shard) on every regenerated release PR.
Nothing in the repo regenerated `server.json` at all, so it fell behind
every release.
Unblocks #2339.
### Why the release *build* passes but the release PR does not
`release.yml` already runs `scripts/version-sync.py` immediately before
its own `verify-versions.py` gate (lines 145 and 278). That is why
`build` and `build-wheels` are green on #2339 despite the drift — it
syncs in the workspace, uncommitted. The regular CI test job does
**not** sync, so the fix has to be committed to the branch.
This also explains why reviewers kept seeing `verify-versions.py` fail
locally while CI's build jobs passed: the verifier is never run
un-synced inside `release.yml`.
## Type of Change
- [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)
- [ ] New feature (non-breaking change that adds functionality)
- [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing
functionality to change)
- [ ] Documentation update
- [ ] Performance improvement
- [ ] Code refactoring (no functional changes)
## Changes Made
- **`scripts/version-sync.py`**: also write `server.json`. It was the
one version-carrying file with no writer anywhere. Values are rewritten
in place so key order and formatting keep matching the builder's
byte-for-byte output (verified: the file is pure ASCII and round-trips
exactly through `json.dumps(..., indent=2) + "\n"`).
- **`.github/workflows/release-metadata-sync.yml`** (new): on a push to
`release-please--branches--**`, run version-sync → gate on
verify-versions → commit if changed.
- **Keyed off the branch push** because release-please force-regenerates
that branch on every merge to main. That is precisely what wiped the
hand-pushed metadata fixes on #2339 (`2a86c8ff`, `d5ea4dc5`) — a push
trigger re-heals after every regeneration instead of being lost.
- **Uses the same PAT as `release-please.yml`**: a `GITHUB_TOKEN` push
does not trigger workflows, so the release PR's checks would never
re-run against the synced commit and would stay red.
- **Idempotent**: the self-triggered rerun finds no diff and exits
before pushing, so the loop terminates after one no-op run.
- **Corrected pre-existing drift on `main`**: the agent-hooks plugin
manifests, both marketplace manifests, and `.releasemetadata` were
stranded at **0.31.0** — never bumped for 0.32.0 either.
`verify-versions.py` now passes on `main`.
### Why not more `extra-files` entries
That would need ~13 jsonpath entries restating what `version-sync.py`
already knows, and a jsonpath that fails to match **fails silently** —
the same class of failure this PR removes, discoverable only after a
real release PR regenerates. There is also no precedent for nested
jsonpath (`$.packages[0].version`, `$.metadata.version`) in the config
today; both existing entries are plain `$.version`. Running the script
keeps one source of truth, and files added to it later are covered with
no change here.
## Testing
- [x] Unit tests pass (`pytest`)
- [x] Linting passes (`ruff check .`)
- [ ] Type checking passes (`mypy headroom`) — no `headroom/` sources
touched
- [x] New tests added for new functionality
- [x] Manual testing performed
### Test Output
```text
$ python -m pytest scripts/tests/ tests/test_release_workflows.py tests/test_mcp_registry/ -q
207 passed in 2.69s
$ ruff check scripts/version-sync.py scripts/tests/test_version_sync.py tests/test_release_workflows.py
All checks passed!
$ ruff format --check <same>
3 files already formatted
$ actionlint .github/workflows/release-metadata-sync.yml
(clean)
```
New tests:
- `test_server_json_version_is_synchronized` — version-sync moves both
`server.json` version fields and preserves the other keys.
- `test_release_metadata_sync_runs_on_release_please_branch` — asserts
the trigger, the sync→verify→commit ordering, the no-op guard, and the
PAT.
- `test_version_sync_covers_every_file_the_verifier_gates` — guards
`version-sync.py` and `verify-versions.py` against drifting apart again,
which is the root cause here.
## Real Behavior Proof
- **Environment:** macOS (Darwin arm64), Python 3.12, repo venv.
- **Exact command / steps:** reproduced the CI failure locally by
simulating release-please's partial bump, then applying the fix.
**Reproducing the exact `test (2)` failure** — set `pyproject` to 0.33.0
while `server.json` stays at 0.32.0, as release-please leaves it:
```text
$ python -m pytest tests/test_mcp_registry/test_server_json.py -q
FAILED tests/test_mcp_registry/test_server_json.py::test_root_server_json_matches_builder
1 failed, 3 passed
```
**After `version-sync.py`:**
```text
$ python scripts/version-sync.py && python -m pytest tests/test_mcp_registry/test_server_json.py -q
4 passed
```
**Both gates green on a simulated 0.33.0 bump:**
```text
$ python scripts/version-sync.py --version 0.33.0
Version synchronized to 0.33.0
$ python scripts/verify-versions.py
All versions aligned at 0.33.0
$ python -m pytest tests/test_mcp_registry/test_server_json.py -q
4 passed
```
**Idempotency** (the property the workflow's loop-termination relies
on): re-running against an already-synced tree leaves `pyproject.toml`,
`server.json`, `openclaw`, and `sdk/typescript` untouched.
- **Not tested:** the workflow has not executed on a real release-please
branch regeneration — that can only be exercised once this is on `main`
and release-please next updates #2339. The PAT push path and the
self-trigger no-op are reasoned from `release-please.yml`'s existing
token comment and from local idempotency, not observed in CI.

## Additional Notes
**Context on the v0.32.0 release failure, since it is easy to misread as
"images never build".** Every artifact built for v0.32.0 — all 5 wheel
platforms including Windows, all 16 Docker builds + 8 manifests +
`promote-latest`, npm, and GitHub Packages. Only `publish-pypi` failed
(PyPI attestations, already fixed by `f9cbdd6e` / #2405), and
`create-release` was skipped because it depends on it. That is why the
release looked like it produced nothing.
**Separate, approaching blocker — not addressed here.** PyPI is at
**9.69 GB of its 10 GB project cap (96.9%)**, leaving ~305 MB against
~68 MB per release, so roughly 4 more releases fit. The `0.21.x` series
alone holds **6.58 GB across 31 releases**, from the old
every-push-is-a-release era; pruning it would reclaim two thirds of the
quota. Worth a separate issue.
**`.releasemetadata` is written but never read** by anything outside
`version-sync.py` and its test. It is kept in sync here for internal
consistency, but it may be a deletion candidate.

# Keep generated version-carrying files in sync on release-please's branch.
|
|
#
|
|
# Why this exists
|
|
# ---------------
|
|
# release-please only rewrites `pyproject.toml` plus the `extra-files` listed in
|
|
# `.release-please-config.json` (currently the TypeScript SDK and OpenClaw
|
|
# package.json). Several other tracked files also carry the version, and
|
|
# `server.json` is asserted byte-for-byte against `render_server_json()` — which
|
|
# derives its version from `pyproject.toml`. So the moment release-please bumps
|
|
# the version, `tests/test_mcp_registry/test_server_json.py::
|
|
# test_root_server_json_matches_builder` fails on the release PR, and the release
|
|
# cannot be merged. That is what blocked v0.33.0 (PR #2339).
|
|
#
|
|
# `release.yml` already runs `scripts/version-sync.py` before its own
|
|
# `verify-versions.py` gate, so the release *build* self-heals in the workspace.
|
|
# The regular CI test job does not, so the fix has to be committed.
|
|
#
|
|
# Why a workflow rather than more `extra-files` entries
|
|
# ----------------------------------------------------
|
|
# `scripts/version-sync.py` is the single place that knows every version-carrying
|
|
# file. Restating that list as per-file jsonpaths would duplicate it, and a
|
|
# jsonpath that silently fails to match produces exactly the failure we are trying
|
|
# to remove. Running the script instead means files added to it in future are
|
|
# covered with no change here.
|
|
#
|
|
# Why the push trigger
|
|
# --------------------
|
|
# release-please regenerates (force-pushes) its branch on every merge to main.
|
|
# That is what repeatedly wiped the hand-pushed metadata fixes on #2339. Keying
|
|
# off a push to the branch means the sync re-applies after every regeneration
|
|
# instead of being lost.
