Follow-up to #123: make CI actually report the compile error, then fix it

#123 was merged, and merging it exposed two things that were previously invisible:

  1. .github/workflows/ci.yml asked dtolnay/rust-toolchain@v1 for a toolchain
    literally named v1. The step failed on every run — including main —
    before a single cargo command ran, so cargo check, cargo test, clippy
    and cargo fmt --check never executed anywhere. Fixed to stable (carried in
    from feat(print): record machine-filled form provenance in the print path (#118) #123).
  2. With the toolchain actually installing, cargo check --workspace now fails
    with exit code 101
    . That is a real compile error in the code merged from
    feat(print): record machine-filled form provenance in the print path (#118) #123, and the sandbox this work was produced in has no Rust toolchain and no
    crates.io access, so CI is the only compiler available.

GitHub Actions logs are not readable from that sandbox (the log and blob hosts are
unreachable), so the one commit on this branch temporarily replaces the four cargo
steps with a single step that tees each command's output and republishes the first
error block of each as an ::error annotation — the one channel that is
readable.

That commit is explicitly temporary and will be reverted here once it has done its
job. The follow-up commits on this branch are the actual compile fixes.

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Chores
    • Updated automated checks to validate the Rust workspace, run selected tests, check code formatting and detect lint issues. Results are reported together, with failures clearly flagged.

Walkthrough

The CI workflow replaces four Rust validation steps with one step. It runs workspace checks, selected-crate tests, Clippy, and formatting, and reports diagnostic output when a command fails.

Changes

CI validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Validation and failure diagnostics
.github/workflows/ci.yml
The workflow runs workspace checks and Clippy across all targets, retains the selected-crate tests and formatting check, and logs each command’s output. On failure, it reports extracted diagnostic lines and nearby locations, or the last 60 lines if no diagnostic lines are found. The step exits unsuccessfully if any command fails.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Suggested reviewers: metadatastician

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to b0add

CI should still reject failing checks, but some failures may lack the details needed to diagnose them from the published annotation. Include the diagnostic body before merging if the temporary step must make those failures actionable.

Review details

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in .github/workflows/ci.yml: The four separate validation steps are replaced by a single step that logs each command’s output, extracts diagnostic lines and nearby locations (or the last 60 lines if none are found), and emits a GitHub Actions error annotation on failure. It runs cargo check and Clippy across the workspace and all targets, retains the selected-crate test command and format check, and exits non-zero if any command fails.

Then logs the errors on the way.

And marks the failures clear for you.

Include the diagnostic body in the annotation.

The extractor retains an error line and, at most, one --> location line. If rustc reports the cause below that location, the annotation omits the cause. Include the following diagnostic lines up to the next diagnostic or a suitable size limit. Keep the output escaping at Line 66.
