Summary
disabled/release.yml's changelog-extraction step uses an awk pattern that requires bracketed ## [VERSION] headings:
NOTES=$(awk "/^## \[${VERSION}\]/{flag=1; next} /^## \[/{flag=0} flag" docs/CHANGELOG.md)But the two most recent entries in docs/CHANGELOG.md dropped the brackets:
## [Unreleased]
## v0.7.0 (2026-08-07) ← no brackets, won't match
## v0.6.0-beta (2026-07-18) ← no brackets, won't match
## [0.5.0-beta] - 2026-07-19 ← bracketed, still matches
Traced the format drift to 0954e6b / 6806396 (the v0.7.0-beta release) — predates the recent docs/ reorg, unrelated to it.
Impact
None today — .github/workflows/disabled/release.yml is disabled. But if it's ever re-enabled and a tag like v0.7.0 triggers it, VERSION=0.7.0 and the awk would search for ## [0.7.0], find nothing, and silently produce empty release notes for that version (and for v0.6.0-beta).
Recommended fix
De-bracket the awk pattern (more resilient than re-bracketing historical changelog entries, since it tolerates both heading styles going forward). Not implementing now — no active impact while the workflow stays disabled.
