dev dist-tag must never fall behind latest#194Conversation
A release publish moves the release tag and leaves `dev` on the last routine push, so `dev` names an older version than `latest` until someone pushes again. prisma-cli reads the products' `dev` tags to build its dev channel, so while that lasts every dev CLI regresses to older product code than the released CLI carries — silently, since a dev build depending on dev builds breaks no rule. Operator ruling 2026-08-17: fix it in the products' publish strategies rather than working around it here by comparing versions. This repo has the same defect and fixes it the same way, in a follow-up. Signed-off-by: willbot <w.a.madden+machine@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Will Madden <madden@prisma.io>

npm's docs are explicit that OIDC authentication supports `npm publish` and `npm stage publish` only; other commands still need traditional authentication, and a dist-tag write is one of them. The brief prescribed `npm dist-tag add`, which would have sent both product repos into the same wall. The fix is what the operator said in the first place: publish a dev build for every main build, including the release commit. It needs no new credential because it goes through the publish path that already works. Signed-off-by: willbot <w.a.madden+machine@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Will Madden <madden@prisma.io>

How can I continue?After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews. How do review limits work?CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability. For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

- Line 9: Update the fenced code block in the handover document to specify the
text language identifier, changing the opening fence to use text while
preserving the block’s contents.
- Around line 28-30: The dev-version publish flow must explicitly use the npm
dev dist-tag. Update the release publish command or its wrapper to invoke npm
publish with the dev tag when publishing the <version>-dev.<run> version, while
leaving the stable release publish path unchanged.
- Line 32: Update the version-pair validation described around the release and
dev tag examples to require the release tag to resolve to the base version and
the dev tag to resolve to that same version with the matching dev run suffix for
the same commit. Do not validate the pair using SemVer precedence.

A handover brief for the agents working in
prisma/composerandprisma/prisma, plus the record of the ruling behind it.The defect
A release publish moves the release tag and leaves
devwhere the last routine push tomainput it, so right after a releasedevnames an older version than the release:This repository follows the products'
devtags to build the CLI's dev channel. While a product'sdevtag lags, every dev build of the CLI regresses to older product code than the released CLI carries — and nothing fails, because a dev build depending on dev builds is exactly what that channel is for. It is silent by construction.The ruling
Operator, 2026-08-17: fix it in the products' publish strategies — publish a corresponding dev build for every
mainbuild — rather than working around it here by comparing versions and picking whichever tag is newer. The tag should be right.This repository has the same defect
prismaand@prisma/clisit atdev: 8.0.0-rc.2-dev.51whilenextis8.0.0-rc.3. The fix is one step after the publish, pointingdevat the released version.Deliberately not in this PR: that step edits
publish.yml, and the8.0.0-rc.4release is going through that workflow now. It follows once the release lands, and the brief flags the two things worth checking while implementing it — whether OIDC-issued publish credentials can write a dist-tag at all, and idempotence on a rerun.Docs only, no code.
