[DevonMorris]

Summary

Allow the publish workflow to continue even if clifford-codegen is already published. This handles the case where a previous publish attempt published clifford-codegen but failed on clifford.

Greptile Overview

Greptile Summary

Added error handling to the publish workflow by allowing the clifford-codegen publish step to continue on failure. This addresses the case where a previous publish attempt successfully published clifford-codegen but failed on clifford, preventing retries from being blocked.

• Changed the clifford-codegen publish command to use || echo pattern to suppress errors and continue workflow execution
• The change enables recovery from partial publish failures without manual intervention

The implementation solves the immediate problem but could be more robust by specifically checking for "already published" errors vs other failure types.

Confidence Score: 4/5

• Safe to merge with minor consideration for error handling improvement
• The change solves a real problem with the publish workflow and is a practical fix. Minor deduction because the error handling is broad and could mask genuine failures, though this is acceptable for the use case.
• No files require special attention - the workflow change is straightforward

Consider checking the actual exit code to distinguish between "already published" vs other errors. The current implementation continues on ANY error, including network failures or authentication issues.

Suggested change

	run: cargo publish -p clifford-codegen || echo "clifford-codegen may already be published, continuing..."
	run: |
	if ! cargo publish -p clifford-codegen 2>&1 | tee publish.log; then
	if grep -q "already uploaded" publish.log; then
	echo "clifford-codegen already published, continuing..."
	else
	echo "Unexpected error publishing clifford-codegen"
	cat publish.log
	exit 1
	fi
	fi
