Two problems found while releasing 0.3.0.

Interrupted generation corrupted the generated files

scripts/generate_structs.rb wrote raw template output over the committed structs in lib/log_struct/log/ and then ran RuboCop on them in place. Task stops every running step when one fails, so a failure elsewhere in task ci (or a Ctrl-C) during the few seconds of formatting left all of the committed structs unformatted. Running task ci on Node 22.6 reproduced it: spellcheck and docs:test reject that Node version, and every generated struct came out changed.

A second race: docs:test didn't depend on generation, but its tests import docs/generated/logstruct. That directory isn't committed, and the generator deleted and rewrote it on every run. On a checkout without the directory, task --parallel docs:test ruby:generate failed five Jest suites with "Cannot find module", and that failure then interrupted the generator as above.

The changes:

  • The generators write into a staging directory under tmp/ that mirrors the repository. RuboCop formats the staged files, using a copy of .rubocop.yml at the staging root so its path rules still apply (plain.rb is allowed an untyped prop). Each file then moves into place with one rename. An interruption leaves the committed files as they were, and anything reading them during generation (Sorbet, tsc or Jest in task ci or the parallel pre-commit hook) gets either the old file or the new one.
  • docs/generated/logstruct is replaced file by file, and files that are no longer generated are removed, instead of deleting the whole directory first.
  • docs:test and docs:typecheck depend on ruby:generate.
  • scripts/generate_sorbet_log_structs.rb is deleted. It was an older copy of the generator that nothing called.

Regenerating gives byte-identical Ruby structs and log-fields.json. The docs/generated output has the same files and content, but the members of the LogField enum in enums.ts come out in a different order: the template follows LogField.constants, whose order depends on what code was loaded first. The members are strings, so their order doesn't matter.

A new test interrupts the formatter in a copy of the repository and checks that no generated file changed. It fails on the old generator. Unit tests cover the staging install.

The advisory audits only ran locally

bundler-audit and pnpm audit ran in task ci but not in GitHub CI. A new Security Audit job runs them through scripts/security_audit.sh, which task security now runs too. The Release workflow waits for the CI workflow to succeed, so a release now waits for the audits.

A newly published advisory will turn CI red on unrelated PRs until the dependency is updated. Dependabot alerts are on for this repository, but Dependabot security updates (the automatic PRs) are off.

Testing

task ci passes locally: typecheck, lint, spellcheck, the Ruby, Rails and docs tests, the Tapioca check and both audits.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Generated files are now prepared before being installed, reducing the risk of partial updates when generation fails.
  • Security
    • CI now checks locked Ruby and documentation dependencies for known security advisories.
  • Chores
    • Documentation type-checking and test tasks now generate required files before running.

The generator wrote template output over the committed structs and ran
RuboCop on them in place. Task stops every step when one fails, so a
failure elsewhere in `task ci` during formatting left the committed
structs unformatted. The generators now write into a staging directory
under tmp/, RuboCop formats the files there (with a copy of the config,
whose paths are relative to it), and each file moves into place with
one rename.

The docs tests and typecheck import docs/generated, which isn't
committed and was deleted and rewritten on every run, so they now wait
for generation.

scripts/generate_sorbet_log_structs.rb was an older copy of the
generator that nothing ran.
bundler-audit and pnpm audit ran in `task ci` but not in GitHub CI, so
the Release workflow, which waits for CI, didn't wait for them. A
Security Audit job runs them through scripts/security_audit.sh, which
`task security` runs too.

Walkthrough

Generation now writes artifacts to a temporary staging area before installing them. Documentation typecheck and test tasks depend on Ruby generation. A new script audits locked Ruby and docs dependencies, and a CI job runs that audit.

Changes

Staged Code Generation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Staging and installation behavior
tools/codegen/staging.rb, test/workflows/codegen_staging_test.rb
Adds staged file writes and installation, with optional pruning. Tests cover installation, preservation of unstaged files, pruning, and empty staged output.
Generators write through staging
tools/codegen/log_fields_generator.rb, tools/codegen/sorbet_generator.rb, tools/codegen/ts_generator.rb, scripts/generate_sorbet_log_structs.rb
Updates the generators to write through Staging and removes the separate Sorbet generation script.
Generation orchestration and validation
scripts/generate_structs.rb, Taskfile.docs.yml, test/workflows/generation_test.rb
Runs generation in a temporary staging directory, formats staged Ruby files, and installs generated outputs. Documentation tasks depend on Ruby generation. Tests cover formatter failure and interruption.

Dependency Security Audit

Layer / File(s) Summary
Audit script and CI wiring
scripts/security_audit.sh, Taskfile.yml, .github/workflows/test.yml, AGENTS.md
Adds a script that runs the Ruby dependency audit and then the docs pnpm audit. The security task and CI workflow run the script, and the quality command documentation lists the task.

Generation can leave some generated files updated and others stale if a later step fails. Rerunning generation fixes it, and CI does not continue past a failed generation. Moving the early installs after the export step is a small fix that is worth making, but it should not block the merge.

LogFieldsGenerator output directory in the generation flow so they run only
after the Sorbet JSON export succeeds. Keep the existing staging and export
steps unchanged, and install these outputs alongside the final TypeScript output
