Use this checklist for every release tag (vX.Y.Z).
-
❏ Version metadata is consistent:
-
Project.tomlversion -
src/Axiom.jl→const VERSION -
CHANGELOG.adoc(if release notes are curated manually)
-
-
❏ Manifest is resolved on the target Julia line (
1.10+).
julia --project=. -e 'using Pkg; Pkg.resolve(); Pkg.instantiate(); Pkg.precompile()'-
❏ Full package pipeline passes.
julia --project=. -e 'using Pkg; Pkg.instantiate(); Pkg.build(); Pkg.precompile(); Pkg.test()'-
❏ Consolidated readiness gate passes (no skipped critical checks).
./scripts/readiness-check.sh-
❏ Runtime smoke test passes (inference + verification + certificates).
julia --project=. -e 'using Axiom; model=Sequential(Dense(10,5,relu),Dense(5,3),Softmax()); x=Tensor(randn(Float32,2,10)); result=verify(model, properties=[ValidProbabilities(), FiniteOutput(), NoNaN(), NoInf()], data=[(x,nothing)]); @assert result.passed; cert=generate_certificate(model, result, model_name="release-smoke", test_data=[(x,nothing)]); p=tempname()*".cert"; save_certificate(cert,p); loaded=load_certificate(p); @assert verify_certificate(loaded); println("RELEASE_SMOKE_OK")'-
❏ Example scripts pass.
julia --project=. examples/simple_classifier.jl
julia --project=. examples/mnist.jl-
❏ No unresolved code/work markers in tracked source paths.
rg -n "OPEN_ITEM|FIX_ITEM|XXX|HACK" src test ext-
❏ No legacy marker strings remain.
rg -n "TO[D]O|FIXM[E]|TB[D]" .-
❏ README and wiki claims match implemented, tested behavior.
-
❏ Deferred/unshipped promises are tracked in:
-
docs/wiki/Roadmap-Commitments.md -
ROADMAP.md -
ROADMAP.adoc
-
-
❏ User/developer docs reflect current workflows:
-
docs/wiki/User-Guide.md -
docs/wiki/Developer-Guide.md
-
-
❏ Create and push tag.
git tag vX.Y.Z
git push origin vX.Y.Z-
❏ Confirm GitHub
Releaseworkflow succeeded:-
build-julia -
build-rust -
generate-sbom -
create-release -

-
-
❏ Confirm assets exist on release page:
-
Julia artifact archives
-
Rust backend binaries (
.so,.dylib,.dll) -
checksums.txt -
sbom-julia.json,sbom-rust.json -
SLSA provenance artifacts
