The harness packages declare the vendored framework as a peer, so installing
only the dsh tarballs left npm resolving @deepseek-ai/cordis from a private
registry the credential-free pack job cannot reach. The verification now takes
several pack directories and installs every tarball in them, and the dsh
workflow packs the vendored family for that purpose while still publishing only
its own set.
The verification also reads what each tarball declares instead of what the
checkout says, which is what let the process and tarball helpers become one
home each - the three copies of a spawn wrapper were a duplication finding.
release:dsh takes major, minor, patch, or an explicit version and writes one
version across the family; release:vendor takes none and increments each
package's own patch, but only for packages whose published payload changed since
their vendor-<package>-v* tag. That tag is the record of the commit a package
last published from, so the change judgement needs no state file, and the diff
is filtered through the manifest's files rules - editing a vendored comment does
not trigger a release.
Both refresh the lockfile, commit, and print the tag to create after the commit
merges. --dry-run reports the plan and writes nothing.
Incrementing the release numbers is also what drops an upstream prerelease
segment: cordis 4.0.0-rc.7 publishes as 4.0.1, because a prerelease version
would not satisfy a consumer's plain range.
