Summary
Extracts the consumer repo update logic from the release workflow into a standalone, manually-triggered workflow. This decouples consumer updates from the release process, allowing them to be run independently and enabling better error recovery without re-triggering expensive releases.
Changes
.github/workflows/release.yml: Removed theupdate-consumersjob (157 lines). Simplified thenotifyjob to only depend on core release steps. Updatedpre_releaseinput description to clarify it only skips Slack notifications (no longer mentions consumer updates)..github/workflows/update-consumers.yml(new): New standalone workflow triggered viaworkflow_dispatchwith optional version input. Resolves the latest release or specified version, discovers consumer repos via GitHub code search, and updates their cagent-action references. Includes version/SHA resolution logic and proper sed escaping for special characters in replacements.The logic itself is unchanged—the same discovery and update sequence runs—but is now independent and reusable without affecting the release workflow's success criteria.
