Add the git-clean currency check - #8
Conversation
This repo commits src/generated/ but had no check that it is still current, so generated drift was caught only at tag time, after a deploy had broadcast. Calls the rainix reusable, named to the org standard. Closes #7

Pin the reusable workflow to a reviewed commit SHA.
@main is mutable, and this job inherits repository secrets. An upstream change can execute code with this repository’s trust and secret context on every push. Replace @main with a reviewed commit SHA, and review the nested nix-cachix-setup@main reference.

Legitimate, declining here. Both refs you name are org-wide: all sixteen consumers use @main for the workflow, and the workflow itself uses nix-cachix-setup@main. The org does pin the nix shell via RAINIX_SHA (dbcd9d3… today), so the discipline exists and is applied to one of the two refs. Pinning this consumer alone would leave fifteen unpinned and diverge this file from them. Filed as rainlanguage/rainix#368.

@thedavidmeister, understood. The mutable references remain a valid security concern, but an organization-wide fix in rainlanguage/rainix#368 is the correct scope. Keeping this consumer consistent with the other consumers is reasonable for this PR.

Learning: In rainlanguage GitHub Actions workflows, sixteen consumers currently call the shared `rainlanguage/rainix` reusable workflow using `main`, and that workflow uses `nix-cachix-setupmain`. The organization pins the Nix shell through `RAINIX_SHA`. Address reusable-workflow and nested-action SHA pinning as an organization-wide Rainix change, tracked by `rainlanguage/rainix#368`, rather than changing one consumer in isolation.

GitHub Actions reusable workflows workflow_call secrets explicitly passed secret must be defined secrets inherit documentation
💡 Result:
In GitHub Actions, reusable workflows do not automatically receive access to secrets from the caller workflow [1][2]. You must explicitly provide secrets using one of two methods: explicit mapping or the inherit keyword [3][2]. 1. Explicit Mapping: If you do not use secrets: inherit, you must define the secrets in the reusable workflow under the on.workflow_call.secrets key [4][5]. The caller workflow must then explicitly map the secrets it wishes to pass to the reusable workflow using the jobs.<job_id>.secrets key [3][4]. If a caller passes a secret that is not defined in the reusable workflow's on.workflow_call.secrets configuration, the call will fail with a parsing error [4][6]. 2. Inheritance (secrets: inherit): The secrets: inherit keyword allows a reusable workflow to automatically access all secrets available to the caller workflow (including organization, repository, and environment secrets) [3][7]. When secrets: inherit is used, it is not strictly required to define the secrets in the reusable workflow's on.workflow_call configuration, though it is still considered a best practice to document expected secrets [3][8][5]. Key Considerations: - Security Boundary: Using secrets: inherit is a broad permission grant that exposes all secrets available to the caller to the reusable workflow [9]. This is primarily intended for workflows within the same organization or enterprise and should be used cautiously [3][10]. - Nested Workflows: Secrets are only passed to the directly called workflow [3]. If you have a chain of reusable workflows (e.g., A calls B, and B calls C), workflow C will not receive secrets from A unless they are explicitly passed or inherited at each step in the chain [3][10][4]. - Precedence: When using secrets: inherit, the available secrets are determined by the caller's scope [7]. Environment secrets are read when the job referencing the environment starts, and if a secret exists at multiple levels (organization, repository, environment), the lowest-level secret takes precedence [11].

Pass only the secret required by the reusable workflow.
The called workflow uses only secrets.CACHIX_AUTH_TOKEN, but its workflow_call declares no secrets. Add CACHIX_AUTH_TOKEN to that contract, then replace secrets: inherit with an explicit mapping.

Confirmed, and it cannot be fixed here. rainix-copy-artifacts.yaml is on: workflow_call: with no secrets: block, while line 15 uses secrets.CACHIX_AUTH_TOKEN — so secrets: inherit is currently the only way it can see that token, and there is no contract for a caller to map to. rainix has to declare it first. Filed as rainlanguage/rainix#366, which covers this and both sibling findings on this file.

@thedavidmeister, thanks for confirming and filing the upstream issue. Your analysis is correct. The reusable workflow's workflow_call trigger has no secrets: block. A caller cannot map a secret that is not declared in that contract. secrets: inherit is the only working option until rainlanguage/rainix#366 adds the declaration in rainix-copy-artifacts.yaml. I will not raise this again on this line until that upstream change lands.

Learning: In rainlanguage/rain.extrospection.deploy, `.github/workflows/git-clean.yaml` calls the reusable workflow `rainlanguage/rainix/.github/workflows/rainix-copy-artifacts.yamlmain` with `secrets: inherit`. This is required because the reusable workflow's `on.workflow_call` trigger declares no `secrets:` block, even though it uses `secrets.CACHIX_AUTH_TOKEN` internally. Callers cannot switch to an explicit secrets mapping until rainix declares the secret in its `workflow_call` contract. Tracked upstream as rainlanguage/rainix#366.

Closes #7
This repo had no currency check at all. It commits
src/generated/(built byscript/Build.sol), so until now drift between the committed generated sources and what thecommitted sources actually build was caught only at tag time — after a deploy had already
broadcast.
Adds
.github/workflows/git-clean.yaml, at the org standard triple: filegit-clean.yaml,workflow
name: Git is clean, job idgit-clean. It calls the shared reusable,rainlanguage/rainix/.github/workflows/rainix-copy-artifacts.yaml@main, the same way the otherconsumer repos do — the reusable regenerates via
script/Build.sol, runsforge buildandforge fmt, and thengit diff --exit-code.Shape taken from the conforming repos rainlanguage/rain.solver and rainlanguage/rain.uniswap
for the naming, and from the sibling deploy repos for the
uses:+secrets: inheritbody(rain.solver and rain.uniswap hand-roll their own steps; this repo has no reason to).
Branch protection
Checked: this repo has no branch protection and no repository rulesets. Nothing
required a
copy-artifactscontext, because nothing produced one. Adding this check does notby itself make it required — an owner would have to add
Git is clean / git-cleanto aruleset for that, which is deliberately not done here.
Expect this to go red
The check has never run on this repo, so it may well fail on its first run if any committed
generated file has drifted. That is the check working, and it is the reason for adding it.
Any drift found is reported on this PR rather than fixed inside it — fixing generated drift
moves contract addresses and codehashes and is its own change with its own review.
QA
discriminating evidence is the check itself, which is the point of the PR: it fails exactly when
a committed artifact under
src/generated/does not match a rebuild from committed sources.Its first run on this PR is that test executing against real state; the result is reported here.

git diff --exit-codegate is the assertion being installed, notone this PR could mutate.
the reusable's contract (regenerate →
forge build→forge fmt→git diff --exit-code) isread from
rainix/.github/workflows/rainix-copy-artifacts.yaml, and the applicability of thesrc/generated+script/Build.solbranch of it is confirmed against this repo's own tree.rainix reusable, plus a branch-protection check; all covered. It does not ask for drift to be
fixed, and this PR does not fix any.
What the check context actually reads
Verified on this PR's live check list rather than assumed. Because this workflow calls a
reusable, GitHub names the check run
<caller job id> / <reusable job id>, so the context is:git-clean / copy-artifactsThe trailing
copy-artifactsis the job id insiderainix/.github/workflows/rainix-copy-artifacts.yaml, not anything this repo controls. This PRdoes everything a consumer repo can do; the remaining half is a one-line job-id rename in rainix
itself. That rename would not break any
uses:line —uses:resolves the workflow file, not ajob id — but it would change the context on every consumer at once, including the one repo that
requires it (rain.math.float.deploy), so it belongs in its own rainix change rather than here.
The fully-conformant repos (rain.solver, rain.uniswap) show a bare
git-cleanbecause theyhand-roll their steps instead of calling the reusable.
