## What changed - Authenticate eligible protected `main` runs and Rust release tags with GitHub OIDC. Allow cache uploads only on `main` pushes; use read-only access for manual runs and release tags, and leave pull requests without GCS credentials. - Rename the shared wrapper to `.github/scripts/run_bazel.py` and route Bazel callers through it. Disable the disk cache in GitHub Actions and default macOS GCS connections to 20 while respecting explicit limits. - Gate additional Bazel release artifacts on `CODEX_BAZEL_RELEASES` and cache configuration, sharing the selected build systems across building, signing, and packaging. Keep Cargo as the default and prepare native Windows dependencies for Bazel releases. - Add a `Bazel result` check for the full workflow and extend Bazel job timeouts. ## Testing Add wrapper tests for cache access by event, argument preservation, and macOS connection limits. The wrapper test suite passes. GitOrigin-RevId: d85edbd083acfaa8bafaa8fd5241daed3e9ef871
Workflow Strategy
The workflows in this directory are split so that pull requests get fast, review-friendly signal while main still gets the full cross-platform verification pass.
Pull Requests
- Required checks run against GitHub's synthetic merge commit, not the pull
request head alone. This includes changes already on
mainand catches conflicts before they reach the branch. bazel.ymlis the main pre-merge verification path for Rust code. It runs Bazeltestand Bazelclippyon the supported Bazel targets, including the generated Rust test binaries needed to lint inline#[cfg(test)]code.rust-ci.ymlkeeps the Cargo-native PR checks intentionally small:cargo fmt --checkcargo shearargument-comment-linton Linux, macOS, and Windowstools/argument-comment-lintpackage tests when the lint or its workflow wiring changes
Post-Merge On main
bazel.ymlalso runs on pushes tomain. This re-verifies the merged Bazel path and populates the public GCS cache.rust-ci-full.ymlis the full Cargo-native verification workflow. It keeps the heavier checks off the PR path while still validating them after merge:- the full Cargo
clippymatrix - the full Cargo
nextestmatrix via per-platform archive-backed shards - Windows ARM64 nextest archives cross-compiled on Windows x64, then replayed on native Windows ARM64 shards
- release-profile Cargo builds
- cross-platform
argument-comment-lint - Linux remote-env tests
- the full Cargo
Rule Of Thumb
- If a build/test/clippy check can be expressed in Bazel, prefer putting the PR-time version in
bazel.yml. - Keep
rust-ci.ymlfast enough that it usually does not dominate PR latency. - Reserve
rust-ci-full.ymlfor heavyweight Cargo-native coverage that Bazel does not replace yet.
Public Bazel action cache
Set CODEX_BAZEL_GCS_BUCKET and CODEX_BAZEL_GCS_WORKLOAD_IDENTITY_PROVIDER
as GitHub Actions secrets in openai/codex. They identify the bucket and its
GitHub OIDC provider. The job exchanges its identity for temporary Google
credentials. Protected main pushes populate the cache. Protected main
dispatches and Rust release tags can read it. Pull requests build without
GCS credentials.
After a main push populates the cache and a separate runner reports a remote
cache hit, set the repository variable CODEX_BAZEL_RELEASES to true to
build the additional Bazel artifacts on Rust release tags. The release
workflow selects one build-system matrix for the build, signing, and
packaging jobs. Cargo artifacts remain the default.
Once public Bazel CI passes, require the Bazel result check in the main
branch ruleset. It reports the result of the full Bazel workflow.
