# Synthetic post-deploy journey. # # `post-publish-verify.yml` proves the published image boots. This one # proves that on a running instance a person can sign in, write a reading # and read it back, and that the instance serves the version that was just # published. # # Deliberately manual for now: the maintainer picks the target instance and # creates the two repository secrets. Nothing calls this from the deploy # path yet. # # Secrets, both required: # SYNTHETIC_USERNAME — the probe account's username or email # SYNTHETIC_PASSWORD — its password # # The probe account must be password-only (the password flow stops at the # MFA ticket, which the script reports as a configuration failure), and the # target must not be the demo instance, where every mutation is blocked. name: Synthetic journey on: workflow_dispatch: inputs: # A closed list, not free text. The dispatcher chooses where the probe # account's password is POSTed, so the choice is between the hosted # instances and nothing else. The script re-checks the host against its # own const allowlist and exits 2 on anything else, so a dispatch that # goes round this form still cannot reach a stranger's collector. base_url: description: Instance to walk required: true type: choice default: https://review.healthlog.dev options: - https://review.healthlog.dev - https://healthlog.bombeck.io expected_version: description: Version the instance must serve, e.g. v1.38.13 required: true type: string permissions: contents: read jobs: journey: name: Sign in, write a reading, read it back runs-on: ubuntu-latest timeout-minutes: 10 steps: - uses: actions/checkout@3d3c42e5aac5ba805825da76410c181273ba90b1 # v7.0.1 - uses: actions/setup-node@820762786026740c76f36085b0efc47a31fe5020 # v7.0.0 with: node-version: 22 # A check that cannot fail is worse than none.
