Action Summary

The Release Regression Guard action automates the verification of critical URLs after a deployment by comparing a repository-owned manifest with the deployed origin. It checks for broken redirects, noindex, canonical/metadata regressions, sitemap gaps, and missing internal links. The main functionality is to report these issues in the workflow Job Summary as pass, fail, unknown, or documented temporary exceptions.

What’s Changed

Release Regression Guard v1.1.0 adds a bounded GitHub Job Summary and strengthens deterministic release verification across positive, negative, exception, and unknown states.

Highlights:

  • Validate Action exit codes, annotations, outputs, JSON, SARIF, Markdown, summaries, and privacy canaries through the spawned entrypoint.
  • Correct robots wildcard precedence, noindex handling, document and base URL resolution, sitemap membership, and invalid redirect handling.
  • Prevent comments and script, style, or template text from creating false document facts; ambiguous JavaScript remains unknown.
  • Align report provenance with package version 1.1.0 and tighten manifest path validation.
  • Keep the Node.js 24 runtime, existing inputs and outputs, target-only network boundary, and default-disabled affiliate mode.
