[written by AI]

Part of PickNikRobotics/moveit_pro#22309 (first of three stacked PRs: this one, then #902 for the update script, then #903 for the weekly drift issue).

Motivation

PR #887 replaced seven source submodules with vendored copies under src/external_dependencies, each pinned by an UPSTREAM.yaml. bin/validate_workspace_dependencies.py --verify-upstream proves a copy still matches its pin, but nothing says when the pin has fallen behind. Today franka_description is 89 commits behind main and nobody would know without checking by hand.

Brief description

bin/vendored_dependency.py status prints one row per vendored source: pinned commit, upstream branch, and how many commits that branch has moved past the pin, most stale first. --markdown emits a GitHub table, and the validate-workspace-dependencies CI job tees it into the job summary so it shows up on every check run without opening logs.

Design choices:

  • The count comes from the GitHub compare API (/compare/<pin>...<branch>), not from a clone. One request per source, about two seconds for all eight, reusing the validator's token and response-size conventions from fetch_upstream_tree_metadata. Adding a git rev-list --count inside fetch_and_validate_upstream was weighed and rejected: that function returns only error strings, and drift is a report, not an error, so it would have needed a second output channel threaded through three layers.
  • Drift is measured against the branch the manifest pins. Five manifests pin a fork or side branch, so this understates drift against the upstream default branch (phoebe_ws reads 4 behind for-example-ws-no-dups while its main moves far more). The pinned branch is the contract the validator enforces, so it is the number reported here; a second column can follow if the table shows it is needed.
  • Drift never fails CI, per the issue. The command itself exits 1 when a lookup fails (network, bad token, branch gone) so a person running it notices. The CI step runs with pipefail and continue-on-error, so a flaky compare marks the step with a warning instead of failing an unrelated PR; the failed row shows ? with the reason in the step log.
  • When GITHUB_OUTPUT is set, status also writes drifted=, resolved=, and unresolved= so a workflow can key on the verdict without parsing the rendered table. The weekly issue job in the third PR uses this.

Tests mock the HTTP call and manifest discovery: request URL and token header, a pin that is not on its branch, HTTP 404, an oversized response, malformed JSON, sort order, the markdown table, the Actions outputs, discovery and manifest errors, and the failure exit code. The pytest CI step now runs the whole bin/tests directory.

  • picknik:moveitpro-code-reviewer — findings applied: PR-facing step made non-gating, commit: rewrite verified up front (second PR), git return codes distinguished (second PR)
  • picknik:moveitpro-documentation-bot — no documentation impact
  • picknik:moveitpro-platform-architect-bot — findings applied: pipefail comment accuracy, machine-readable GITHUB_OUTPUT, explicit upstream-metadata check
  • CodeRabbit — permissions: contents: read on the job; Actions outputs written for an empty inventory too; JSON booleans rejected as commit counts; compare references URL-encoded; Markdown table cells escaped
  • picknik:moveitpro-sonar-bot — SonarCloud does not analyze this repo; predictions applied where cheap (composite asserts split, unused stub parameters, coverage of error branches); --quiet/utf-8 literal constants and import pytest form deferred to stay consistent with the sibling validator and its tests
  • picknik:moveitpro-test-runnerpython3 -m pytest bin/tests, validator offline run, and pre-commit; two pre-existing validator tests fail locally on Python 3.14 only (CI pins 3.12)

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a status command for reporting how far vendored dependencies have diverged from their pinned upstream branches.
    • Added text and Markdown reports, GitHub Actions summary output, and diagnostics for lookup or validation errors.
  • Documentation

    • Updated vendored dependency maintenance instructions with the new status command.
  • Tests

    • Expanded automated coverage for dependency drift reporting, error handling, output formats, and CI integration.
  • Chores

    • Dependency validation now runs the complete test suite and publishes a non-blocking drift report.

Walkthrough

The change adds a vendored dependency drift CLI, GitHub comparison handling, report rendering, GitHub Actions outputs, CI integration, documentation, and comprehensive tests.

Changes

Vendored dependency drift reporting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Drift retrieval and dependency collection
bin/vendored_dependency.py
The CLI defines immutable drift records, validates manifests, queries GitHub compare data, handles lookup errors, and sorts dependency results.
Status output and CI integration
bin/vendored_dependency.py, .github/workflows/ci.yaml, README.md
The status command renders text or Markdown reports, writes GitHub Actions outputs, runs in CI with read-only contents permission, and is documented in the vendored dependency workflow.
Drift reporting validation
bin/tests/test_vendored_dependency.py
Tests cover API requests, validation failures, ordering, rendering, GitHub outputs, exit codes, and empty or unresolved sources.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to e115b

The new status command reports vendored dependency drift and publishes CI summaries without blocking drift; no current merge-blocking risk remains.

Explanation

The pull request changes authentication and permissions. It adds permissions: contents: read to the validate-workspace-dependencies job, passes GITHUB_TOKEN to the new drift-report step, and sends that token as a Bearer authorization header to the GitHub API. It also changes .github/workflows/ci.yaml CI behavior by adding a workflow step. These are explicit failure conditions.

MoveIt Pro Example WS - Objectives Integration Test Report

Add bin/vendored_dependency.py status, which asks the GitHub compare API how many commits each pinned upstream branch has moved past the commit recorded in UPSTREAM.yaml, and publish the table in the CI job summary.
