Merge ci/macos-app-release: build, sign, notarize and attach Codeman.dmg on every release

release.yml and docs/releasing.md take the branch's text, which is master's text plus the macOS app additions (its first commit copied both files from master).

# Builds Codeman.app (Apple Silicon + Intel), signs it with the Developer ID,
# has Apple notarize the app and the DMG, and attaches Codeman.dmg and
# Codeman.dmg.sha256 to a Codeman release. The asset name never changes, so
# https://github.com/Ark0N/Codeman/releases/latest/download/Codeman.dmg always
# serves the newest app.
#
# Release calls this when npm took a Codeman release, with tag codeman@<version>,
# and it builds the release commit. By hand, once this file is on master:
# gh workflow run desktop-dmg.yml # dry run of master: artifacts only
# gh workflow run desktop-dmg.yml --ref <branch> # dry run of a branch that carries this file
# gh workflow run desktop-dmg.yml -f tag=codeman@1.50.0 # rebuild that tag, replace its Codeman.dmg
# Only a run on master (or Release itself) attaches anything; every run leaves
# the signed Codeman.dmg as an artifact on its run page.
#
# Three jobs, so no job that holds a secret runs code from a crate:
# - build runs cargo, and with it the build script of every crate in
# Cargo.lock. It has a read-only token and nothing else: no secret, no cache.
# - sign gets the built app as an artifact and runs only Apple's tools and this
# repository's scripts on it. It alone holds the signing and notary secrets.
# - attach has the one token that can write to a release, and no secret.

5. **Commit and deploy**: verify the branch first (`git branch --show-current`), then stage EXPLICIT paths — never `git add -A`, which has swept another session's WIP into a release. `git status --short` and account for every line before committing:
`git add <paths> && git commit -m "chore: version packages" && git push && npm run build && systemctl --user restart codeman-web`
6. **Refresh the getcodeman.com version badge**: the landing page's status bar carries the release version (`v<x.y.z> · getcodeman.com · MIT`), so it goes stale on every release if nobody bumps it. The site source and its deploy script are maintained outside this repository, on the maintainer's machine only; follow the local site handbook there, which also covers the numbers strip and `sitemap.xml` refresh that belong in the same pass. Poll production (`curl -s https://getcodeman.com/ | grep v<x.y.z>`) before calling it done, since the edge lags a deploy by up to a minute. Not applicable to contributor clones — skip it and say so.
7. **Wait for CI**: after `git push`, TWO workflows fire per master push: `CI` and `Release` (the npm publish, the GitHub release and the MCP registry publish). List both runs for the pushed commit with `gh run list --commit $(git rev-parse HEAD) --json databaseId,workflowName` and watch EACH with `gh run watch <id> --exit-status`. Confirm both pass before considering the release done (`gh run list -L 1` returns only one of the two).
A site change that links the Mac app (`Codeman.dmg`, `/mac`) deploys only after step 7 showed the `macOS app` job green and the [DMG check](#the-mac-app-codemandmg) answered 200: the DMG reaches the release well after the npm publish, and the download link answers 404 until then.

Confirm both pass before considering the release done (`gh run list -L 1` returns only one of the two).
8. **Check the MCP registry**: `codeman mcp` is listed in the official MCP registry as `io.github.Ark0N/codeman`, and the registry does not follow npm, so every release is published there. The `Release` workflow does this itself in its `MCP registry` job (`.github/workflows/publish-mcp.yml`): it waits until npm serves the version, because the registry checks that the npm package exists and carries `mcpName: io.github.Ark0N/codeman`, signs in with the workflow's GitHub OIDC token (no secret, no browser) and publishes the `config/mcp-registry/server.json` that `npm run version-packages` wrote (`scripts/sync-plugin.mjs`). A version the registry already has is skipped. Confirm with `curl -s 'https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/v0/servers?search=io.github.Ark0N/codeman' | jq -r '.servers[] | "\(.server.version) latest=\(._meta["io.modelcontextprotocol.registry/official"].isLatest)"'`: the new version must be the one with `latest=true`. If the job failed, `gh workflow run publish-mcp.yml` publishes the version on master again. Its publisher is pinned: bump `MCP_PUBLISHER_VERSION` and `MCP_PUBLISHER_SHA256` together, the digest from the release's asset. The local fallback is `cd config/mcp-registry && ~/.local/bin/mcp-publisher login github && ~/.local/bin/mcp-publisher publish`, signed in as the account that owns the `io.github.Ark0N/` namespace, with mcp-publisher 1.8.1 or newer, the release binary from https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/releases: the Snap Store package is stuck at 1.1.0 and rejects the current `$schema` with a false "deprecated schema detected", so never edit `server.json` for that error. Older publishers also save their login as `.mcpregistry_github_token` and `.mcpregistry_registry_token` (live tokens) in the current directory; move those out of the repo, never commit them.

## The Mac app (Codeman.dmg)
Every Codeman release carries the native macOS app (`packages/desktop`) as `Codeman.dmg` plus `Codeman.dmg.sha256`. The name never changes, so https://github.com/Ark0N/Codeman/releases/latest/download/Codeman.dmg always serves the newest app, while each release keeps its own copy at `https://github.com/Ark0N/Codeman/releases/download/codeman@<x.y.z>/Codeman.dmg` (link that one in release notes). The app keeps its own version (`packages/desktop/Cargo.toml`), so the DMG of Codeman 1.50.0 holds app 0.1.0.
**How it gets there.** When npm took a Codeman release (not one that moved only xterm-zerolag-input), the `Release` run's `macOS app` job calls `.github/workflows/desktop-dmg.yml` with the tag `codeman@<x.y.z>`. It has three jobs, so no job that holds a secret runs code from a crate: `build` runs `cargo test --locked` and `bundle-macos.sh --universal` on the release commit with a read-only token and no secret; `sign` imports the Developer ID certificate into a throwaway keychain and runs `packages/desktop/scripts/sign-macos.sh`, which signs the app with the hardened runtime, has Apple notarize it, staples the ticket, builds the DMG around it and signs, notarizes and staples that too; `attach` uploads both files to the release (`--clobber`) and checks that the download links serve those bytes. The release job's `Keep Latest on the Codeman release` step puts the Latest badge back on the newest `codeman@` release after every publish, since the stable link follows that badge.
**The secrets** are repository secrets, passed to the job by name (never `secrets: inherit`, which would hand it `NPM_TOKEN`): `MACOS_CERT_P12` (the Developer ID Application certificate WITH its private key, exported from Keychain Access as a .p12, then `base64 -i <file>.p12`), `MACOS_CERT_PASSWORD` (the export password), `APPLE_ID`, `APPLE_APP_PASSWORD` (an app-specific password for that Apple ID, made at account.apple.com) and `APPLE_TEAM_ID`. A Developer ID certificate lasts five years; its successor replaces the first two secrets and nothing else.
**Check it before anything links to it.** The DMG lands after a universal build and two notary submissions, so well after the npm publish, and until then the stable link answers 404:
```bash
gh release view codeman@<x.y.z> --json assets -q '.assets[].name' # Codeman.dmg and Codeman.dmg.sha256
curl -sIL -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' https://github.com/Ark0N/Codeman/releases/latest/download/Codeman.dmg # 200
```
**Dry run.** `gh workflow run desktop-dmg.yml` builds, signs and notarizes master and attaches nothing; `gh workflow run desktop-dmg.yml --ref <branch>` does the same for a branch that carries the workflow (GitHub starts a manual run only for a workflow file that is also on master). The signed DMG is the run's `codeman-dmg` artifact (`gh run download <run-id> -n codeman-dmg`). For a first-launch test, download it on a Mac through the browser from the run page instead, so the copy is quarantined like one from a release.
**Rebuild a release's DMG.** `gh workflow run desktop-dmg.yml -f tag=codeman@<x.y.z>`, started from master (the only ref allowed to attach), builds that tag and replaces its `Codeman.dmg`. It works for any release that carries `packages/desktop/scripts/sign-macos.sh`. A failed job is also retried in place with `gh run rerun <run-id> --failed`.
**If notarization fails.** The `Sign and notarize` job's log names the submission and prints Apple's log for it (`xcrun notarytool log <id>` with the same login shows it again).
- `HTTP status code: 401` (invalid credentials) or `403` (a required agreement is missing or has expired) at the first submission: a new Apple ID password revokes every app-specific password, so make a new one and update `APPLE_APP_PASSWORD`, or accept the new agreement at developer.apple.com, then `gh run rerun <run-id> --failed`.
- `0 valid Developer ID Application identities` in the `Signing keychain` step: the .p12 lacks its private key or holds another certificate type. A team mismatch there means `APPLE_TEAM_ID` names another team than the certificate.
- `In Progress` at the 45-minute limit, or a network error: Apple's service was slow. Rerun the failed job.
- `Invalid`: Apple's log names the file and the reason (a binary without the hardened runtime or a secure timestamp, an entitlement it refuses). That is a code fix and a new release. Until then keep the stable link on the last app that passed, `gh release edit codeman@<previous> --latest`, and hold any site change that links the new one.
**By hand on a Mac**, only when the workflow cannot be fixed in time: in a clean checkout of the tag, `env -u CODEMAN_DESKTOP_INSTALLER_URL -u CODEMAN_DESKTOP_INSTALL_BRANCH packages/desktop/scripts/bundle-macos.sh --universal`, then `SIGN_IDENTITY="Developer ID Application: ..." NOTARY_PROFILE=<profile> packages/desktop/scripts/sign-macos.sh packages/desktop/dist/Codeman.app <out-dir>` (a profile saved with `xcrun notarytool store-credentials`), then `gh release upload codeman@<x.y.z> <out-dir>/Codeman.dmg <out-dir>/Codeman.dmg.sha256 --clobber`. Never upload a build made with either of those two variables set: it installs Codeman from the test branch it names.
**Toolchain and runner.** `desktop-dmg.yml` and the pull-request check `desktop-ci.yml` (`cargo fmt --check`, clippy with `-D warnings` and `cargo test --locked` on macOS, for changes under `packages/desktop`) both pin `RUST_TOOLCHAIN` and run on `macos-26`. Move them together.
## Security notices
A security notice is a sticky warning card about something outside Codeman that its users should act on (the first: OpenCode's Console breach, October 2026). On a browser that gets the release's update toast it appears inside that toast instead, so nobody sees it twice. Notices live in `src/web/public/security-notices.json`, which is maintained BY HAND; never put one in `whats-new.json`, which `npm run version-packages` rewrites. A notice reaches users only with a release, so add it before the COM that should carry it.
