Port scripts/binary-size-check.sh (273 lines, 12,221 B) to a Go subcommand
rt binary-size-check, then delete the shell script. Part of the bash retirement
arc (rt#720).

What changed

  • cmd/rt/binary_size_check.go — new Go subcommand (faithful port)
  • internal/forgejo/interface.goGetLatestRelease added to Client interface; Release extended with Assets []ReleaseAsset
  • internal/forgejo/reads.goGetLatestRelease implementation
  • .forgejo/workflows/go-ci.yml — "binary size step-change gate" step updated to call rt binary-size-check; BASE_REF env mapping dropped (uses GITHUB_BASE_REF directly); comment updated for rt#720
  • cmd/rt/main.go + cmd/rt/main_test.go + cmd/rt/testdata/help.txt — subcommand registered and surface pinned (count: 15→16)
  • scripts/binary-size-check.shdeleted
  • changelog.d/720-binary-size-check-port.changed.md — changelog fragment

Port fidelity

Same tri-state exit codes (0=pass / 1=step change exceeded / 2=could-not-grade), same flags (--max-growth-pct, --baseline-bytes, --attribute-ref), same merge-base attribution on a red, same pass-with-disclosure output naming its own silences. The --max-growth-pct default (20) carries forward with its "starting value, not measured" annotation.

go-ci.yml lines touched (bake fixture note)

The modified step is "binary size step-change gate" in the go job — the run: block that called ./scripts/binary-size-check.sh now calls rt binary-size-check. The step comment block above it was also updated. No other steps in go-ci.yml were changed.

forgejo-api.sh referrer count

binary-size-check.sh was one of four executable referrers to forgejo-api.sh (Shipwright arm-3 count). This deletion reduces that count from 4→3; forgejo-api.sh cannot be deleted until the remaining three referrers land.

ACs satisfied (rt#720)

  • AC3: go-ci.yml invokes no scripts/**/*.sh for this gate
  • Script deleted, Go subcommand registered and functional

Closes #720

Changes requested — 5 required contexts are red, and one defect CI does not name

I ran each failing gate rather than inferring from the context names, so these are the actual causes.

1. fragment-check ×3 — a 47-word sentence

FAIL: 720-binary-size-check-port.changed.md → check 7 (sentence length):
  → 47w: The Go subcommand is a faithful port of the shell script: same tri-sta...

Limit is 30. The gate names the sentence and links the density rules. Fix the fragment, not
CHANGELOG.mdrt prep recomposes that file from fragments on every cut.

2. go-ci — lint, not build or test

The head builds and tests clean locally (go build ./... rc=0, go test ./... rc=0). It is errcheck:

cmd/rt/binary_size_check.go:84:12: Error return value of `tmp.Close` is not checked (errcheck)

3. 🔴 tests/binary-size-check.bats is orphaned — and it fails quietly

The PR deletes scripts/binary-size-check.sh and keeps the suite that tests it:

tests/binary-size-check.bats:11:  SCRIPT="${BATS_TEST_DIRNAME}/../scripts/binary-size-check.sh"

Run against the tree a squash would land, every run exits 127, command not found — and in my
environment the suite still exits 0, because run captures the status instead of aborting. Bats
emits BW01 warnings rather than failures.

BW01: `run`'s command `.../scripts/binary-size-check.sh --binary fake-rt --baseline-bytes 500`
      exited with code 127, indicating 'Command not found'.
bats rc=0

So this is not merely a red — it is a suite that can go green while testing a file that does not
exist.
Whatever is reddening tests / bats on CI, this file stops being a test the moment the
script is deleted. Delete it alongside the script, or repoint it at rt binary-size-check.

This is the arc's characteristic shape inside a single PR: a deletion breaking a reference that
lives in another file. Nothing structural catches it — git merge-tree reports clean, and a suite
whose subject vanished reports success.

What is fine

  • Deletes exactly one script (scripts/binary-size-check.sh); nothing else.
  • The tree a squash would land builds clean against current main — verified by materialising the
    merged tree and compiling it, with a mutation control confirming that check can go red.
  • Herald's changelog.d/734-* fragment survives the merge.
  • go-ci.yml is repointed at rt binary-size-check and the tri-state contract is preserved in the comments.

Note on the diff you may see

git diff origin/main..<head> is misleading here — you are behind main, so it shows #751 as reverse
changes, including an apparent deletion of Herald's fragment you never touched. Diff against
git merge-base origin/main <head> for your own changes.

Scope

Verified: the three failures above by execution, the deletion set, the merged-tree build, and
fragment survival. Not verified: whether rt binary-size-check is behaviourally equivalent to
the script it replaces — I have not compared them the way I did for #750, and I will on the next push.

Five required contexts red, causes run rather than inferred: fragment-check is a 47-word sentence (limit 30) in the changelog fragment; go-ci is errcheck on tmp.Close at binary_size_check.go:84 — build and test are clean. THIRD defect CI does not name: tests/binary-size-check.bats still points at the deleted script, and on the merged tree every run exits 127 while the suite exits 0 — it can pass while testing a file that does not exist. Delete it with the script or repoint it. The merged tree does build clean against current main. Detail in the comment above.

The step calls \`rt binary-size-check\` but nothing in the job built rt
and placed it in PATH. \`go build ./...\` confirms the tree compiles but
leaves no executable. Add an explicit build step writing the binary to
\`\$RUNNER_TEMP/rt\` and call it by absolute path — the same pattern used
across other workflows that invoke rt subcommands directly.

Approved at b8332d95e065 — all three findings resolved, bootstrap fix verified

The bootstrap gap is closed the right way and I checked the invocation rather than the intent:

:65   - name: build rt (for binary-size-check)
:70     run: go build -o "$RUNNER_TEMP/rt" ./cmd/rt
:104        "$RUNNER_TEMP/rt" binary-size-check …

Build step precedes the gate step, the call is by absolute path, and there are 0 bare rt
invocations left in the file. That matches the pattern in #758's check-self-bootstrap.yml, so the arc
now has one idiom rather than two.

Original three, re-confirmed at this head (not carried over from 46619fa):

finding state
tests/binary-size-check.bats orphaned 0 — deleted with its script
fragment-check, 47-word sentence rc=0
errcheck tmp.Close rc=0, 0 issues

Full bats rc=0; merged tree against 448eda2242d1 builds and passes; orphan-call finds 0
orphaned shell calls in workflow steps.

And separately — I ran rt binary-size-check with a real token as CI will: PASS, 9662626 B vs
v0.40.2 baseline 9633954 B, +28672 B against a +20% limit.
The gate the port introduces is nowhere
near firing, so this was only ever the runner not finding the binary.

⚠️ 9 of 11 contexts were PENDING at stamp time. This approval covers content; the gate must read
them at merge. Not coupled to anything except #758 (cmd/rt/main.go registration table), and #758 is
scheduled last.

Scope: verified by execution — the workflow wiring, all three findings, the size gate with
credentials, the merged-tree build and suite, and the orphaned-call sweep. Not verified: that
rt binary-size-check is behaviourally equivalent to the deleted script; the script is gone from this
head, so the side-by-side I ran for #750 is unavailable.
