What

Pin the OpenShell CLI/gateway version from a single source of truth so local dev, CI, and the runtime min-version check can never drift.

Local installs were landing on stale OpenShell (e.g. 0.0.85) because a bare brew install openshell off the tap installs whatever the formula defaults to — usually behind. This pins the version once; everything else derives from it.

How

  • .openshell-version — the pin (v0.0.85), single source of truth.
  • internal/gateway.MinOpenShellVersion — constant replacing the "0.0.85" literal in apply.go. TestMinOpenShellVersionMatchesPin fails if the constant and the file drift apart.
  • make openshell — installs the pinned version via the upstream install.sh (matches CI exactly; drives Homebrew on macOS, packages + systemd user service on Linux).
  • integration.yml — both jobs read .openshell-version instead of hardcoding v0.0.85.
  • Docs (README, profiles/gateways/*, AGENTS.md) — use make openshell and document the real gateway lifecycle; drop bare brew install.

Re-baselining to a newer release is now a one-line edit to .openshell-version (the pre-PR4 re-baseline plan is tracked separately in local modernization docs).

Test

  • go build ./..., full unit suite, golangci-lint (0 issues) — green.
  • New TestMinOpenShellVersionMatchesPin passes; make openshell resolves the pin; integration.yml validates.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a make openshell command to install the supported, pinned OpenShell CLI and gateway version.
    • Gateway installation now starts the gateway service automatically.
  • Documentation

    • Updated setup instructions to use the pinned OpenShell installation process.
    • Added guidance for restarting and registering the local gateway on macOS and Linux.
    • Refined local-container gateway and source-build instructions.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Improved version validation and added checks to detect version mismatches.
    • Made provider-state verification more reliable regardless of ordering.

Local dev drifted onto stale OpenShell because a bare `brew install openshell`
off the tap installs whatever the formula defaults to. Pin the version once and
have every consumer derive from it.

- .openshell-version: the pin (v0.0.85), single source of truth.
- internal/gateway.MinOpenShellVersion: constant replacing the "0.0.85" literal
  in apply.go; TestMinOpenShellVersionMatchesPin fails if it drifts from the file.
- make openshell: installs the pinned version via upstream install.sh (matches CI).
- integration.yml: both jobs read .openshell-version instead of hardcoding it.
- docs (README, profiles/gateways, AGENTS): use `make openshell` and document the
  real gateway lifecycle (brew services / systemd user service); drop bare brew.

Walkthrough

The PR centralizes the OpenShell version in .openshell-version. Make, CI, documentation, and gateway validation now use the pinned version. Tests verify the gateway version and provider-state behavior.

Changes

OpenShell version management

Layer / File(s) Summary
Pinned installation flow
.openshell-version, Makefile, .github/workflows/integration.yml, README.md, profiles/gateways/*
The repository defines one OpenShell version pin. Make and both integration jobs install that version. Installation and gateway setup instructions use make openshell.
Gateway version validation
internal/gateway/cli.go, cmd/apply.go, internal/gateway/version_test.go
Gateway validation uses the shared MinOpenShellVersion constant. A test verifies that the constant matches .openshell-version.
Provider state test stability
internal/plan/state_test.go
The provider-state test checks providers by name and type instead of relying on map ordering.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 3d7a4

The version pin improves consistency, but local and CI installs still execute a mutable upstream installer script, so installation behavior could change independently of the pinned release. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up to pin and verify the installer script.

TestReadCurrentState_ProvidersPopulated asserted a fixed [github, gcp] order,
but the fake stores providers in a name-keyed map so Providers() order is not
guaranteed — the test was flaky (passed or failed on map-iteration luck).
Production does not rely on provider order (the plan matches current providers
by name), so assert membership by name instead of position.

validation and installer environment setting.

openshell to state that it installs OpenShell and then starts the gateway
service, removing the claim that the make command itself starts the service.

Pin and verify the installer script at every execution site, and reject an empty version.

OPENSHELL_VERSION only pins the package version; Makefile and both integration jobs still fetch install.sh from mutable main without checksum or signature verification. Pin the script to an immutable commit and validate its SHA-256 or signature before execution. Also fail when .openshell-version is empty; otherwise the installer can resolve the latest release instead of the intended version.

Comment thread README.md
- Makefile + CI: download install.sh to a temp file and execute only on curl
  success (curl -fLsS -o). A piped `curl | sh` masks a failed download because
  sh exits 0 on empty stdin, so `make openshell` / the CI step falsely passed.
- CI: reject an empty .openshell-version (matches the Makefile guard) so a
  missing pin can't silently fall back to the latest release.
- README: the installer starts the gateway service, so drop the redundant manual
  start step; keep the one-time registration and a restart-later note.

Not addressed: pinning install.sh to an immutable commit + checksum. `curl
main/install.sh | sh` is upstream's canonical install method with no published
checksums; pinning the installer itself is a separate supply-chain decision out
of scope for this change.
