Interfaces defined for data structures (not inline types) +- [ ] No usage of `any` (use `unknown` + type guards if needed) +- [ ] Proper null/undefined handling (`?.` optional chaining, `??` nullish coalescing) +- [ ] tsconfig.json `strict: true` enforced + +### Async/Await Patterns +- [ ] All `async` functions return `Promise` or are `void` +- [ ] All promises are awaited (no floating promises) +- [ ] Try/catch blocks around all external calls (GitHub API, file I/O) +- [ ] Error messages include actionable context +- [ ] No usage of `.then()` chains (prefer async/await) + +### GitHub Actions Integration +- [ ] Inputs retrieved via `core.getInput()` with validation +- [ ] Outputs set via `core.setOutput()` +- [ ] Failures reported via `core.setFailed()` +- [ ] Logging uses `core.info/warning/error()` not console +- [ ] Secrets masked via `core.setSecret()` if applicable +- [ ] Job summaries use `core.summary` API +- [ ] Annotations use `core.notice/warning/error()` with file/line + +### Code Organization +- [ ] Single Responsibility Principle (functions < 50 lines) +- [ ] DRY - no duplicated logic +- [ ] Modules organized by domain (pullrequest/, graphql/, etc.) +- [ ] Interfaces in dedicated files or at module top +- [ ] No circular dependencies + +### Error Handling +- [ ] User-friendly error messages (what failed + how to fix) +- [ ] Errors include relevant IDs (PR number, username, etc.) +- [ ] Network errors handled gracefully (retries? fallbacks?) +- [ ] Validation errors caught early (fail fast) +- [ ] No silent failures (catch blocks that swallow errors) + +### Build & Distribution +- [ ] `npm run build` produces `dist/index.js` +- [ ] dist/ committed to repository (required for actions) +- [ ] No development dependencies in production bundle +- [ ] action.yml references `dist/index.js` not `src/` +- [ ] Version tags match package.json + +## Common Issues & Solutions + +### Issue 1: Promise Rejection Not Handled +**Symptom**: Unhandled promise rejection warnings in workflow logs + +**Root Cause**: Async function called without await, error not caught +```typescript +// BAD +async function main() { + fetchData() // Floating promise! + processSomething() +} +``` + +**Solution**: Always await async calls +```typescript +// GOOD +async function main() { + try { + await fetchData() + await processSomething() + } catch (error) { + core.setFailed(`Workflow failed: ${error.message}`) + } +} +``` + +### Issue 2: GitHub API Rate Limiting +**Symptom**: 403 errors with "API rate limit exceeded" + +**Root Cause**: Too many sequential API calls without checking limits + +**Solution**: Batch operations, use GraphQL, check rate limits +```typescript +// GOOD: GraphQL reduces API calls +const query = ` + query($owner: String!, $repo: String!, $prNumber: Int!) { + repository(owner: $owner, name: $repo) { + pullRequest(number: $prNumber) { + commits(first: 100) { + nodes { + commit { + author { user { login databaseId email } } + } + } + } + } + } + } +` +const result = await octokit.graphql(query, variables) + +// Check rate limits +const { data: rateLimit } = await octokit.rateLimit.get() +core.info(`API calls remaining: ${rateLimit.resources.core.remaining}`) +``` + +### Issue 3: TypeScript Compilation Errors +**Symptom**: `npm run build` fails with type errors + +**Root Cause**: tsconfig.json too strict or missing type definitions + +**Solution**: Ensure @types packages installed, fix type errors +```bash +# Install missing types +npm install --save-dev @types/node @types/jest + +# Check tsconfig.json settings +{ + "compilerOptions": { + "strict": true, + "esModuleInterop": true, + "skipLibCheck": true // For third-party types + } +} +``` + +### Issue 4: Action Inputs Not Found +**Symptom**: Empty string returned from `core.getInput()` + +**Root Cause**: Mismatch between action.yml and workflow configuration + +**Solution**: Validate action.yml defines all inputs +```yaml +# action.yml +inputs: + path-to-signatures: + description: 'Repository with signatures.json' + required: true + personal-access-token: + description: 'GitHub PAT with repo scope' + required: true +``` + +```typescript +//

Status Context vs Check Runs + +**Issue:** Two different APIs creating status checks + +**Lesson:** +- **Status Context API** (legacy): `repos.createCommitStatus()` +- **Check Runs API** (modern): Automatic from GitHub Actions +- Don't mix both - causes duplicates + +**Best Practice:** +- Use Check Runs exclusively for GitHub Actions +- Only use Status Context for external integrations +- Remove manual status updates when using Actions + +--- + +### 3. GitHub Actions Summary Formatting + +**Issue:** Markdown didn't render in job summaries + +**Lesson:** +- `core.summary.addRaw()` doesn't parse Markdown +- Use HTML tags for formatting: ``, `` +- Test summaries in actual workflow runs, not locally + +**Code Pattern:** +```typescript +// Use HTML, not Markdown +core.summary.addRaw(`${var} Link`) +``` + +--- + +### 4.

Git Commit Author vs Pusher + +**Issue:** `git commit --author` didn't create unsigned commits + +**Lesson:** +- GitHub API returns pusher, not commit author (in some contexts) +- To test unsigned commits: Use `git config` to set user/email locally +- Remember to restore original config after testing + +**Correct Test Pattern:** +```bash +# Temporary config +git config user.email "test@example.com" +git commit -m "Test" # Author will be test@example.com + +# Restore +git config --unset user.email +``` + +--- + +### 6. PR Comment as Communication Channel + +**Issue:** No immediate feedback on signature/recheck comments + +**Lesson:** +- Current implementation: Silent updates (no reaction to user comment) +- Better UX: Add emoji reactions (πŸ‘, πŸ‘€, πŸŽ‰) to comments +- Alternative: Reply comments (but can clutter conversation) + +**Recommendation:** +```typescript +// Add after signature processed +await octokit.reactions.createForIssueComment({ + comment_id: signatureCommentId, + content: 'hooray' // πŸŽ‰ +}) +``` + +--- + +### 7.

"Watch" signatures repository +2. Enable notifications for: + - All activity (if low volume) + - Issues and PRs only (if high volume) + +**Purpose:** Catch signature-related discussions + +#### Workflow Failure Notifications +**Setup:** +```yaml +# Add to CLA workflow +jobs: + CLA-Lite: + runs-on: ubuntu-latest + steps: + # ... existing steps + + - name: Notify on Failure + if: failure() + uses: actions/github-script@v7 + with: + script: | + github.rest.issues.createComment({ + owner: context.repo.owner, + repo: context.repo.repo, + issue_number: context.issue.number, + body: '⚠️ CLA check encountered an error. @cla-maintainers will investigate.' + }) +``` + +**Alternative:** Slack, email, PagerDuty integration + +#### Security Alert Monitoring +**Setup:** +1.
