From 114d4b5b43a9b4a75d3f1f6ea0e15ecd7309c7c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Michaelis Date: Sun, 17 May 2026 07:24:03 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/4] feat: Cancel pending deployments on successful production deployment Implement automatic cancellation of pending workflow runs when a production deployment succeeds. This prevents multiple redundant deployments and saves CI/CD resources. Changes: - Add 'actions: write' permission to workflow and deploy-production job - New 'Cancel pending deployments' step in deploy-production job - Runs after smoke test to ensure only successful deployments trigger cancellation - Implements pagination for large numbers of queued runs - Includes error handling with try-catch for API resilience - Detailed logging showing commit SHA and branch for each cancelled run Addresses issue #149 --- .github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml | 45 +++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 45 insertions(+) diff --git a/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml b/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml index 5afc3a7c..794e65c0 100644 --- a/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml +++ b/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml @@ -8,6 +8,7 @@ on: permissions: id-token: write contents: read + actions: write jobs: build-and-test: @@ -155,6 +156,7 @@ jobs: permissions: id-token: write contents: write # needed for git deploy tag + actions: write steps: - uses: actions/checkout@v6 @@ -230,6 +232,49 @@ jobs: # --retry-all-errors ensures HTTP 5xx (cold-start 503s) also trigger retries curl --fail --retry 10 --retry-delay 15 --retry-all-errors --max-time 30 "https://$FQDN/health" + - name: Cancel pending deployment workflow runs + uses: actions/github-script@v9 + with: + script: | + let totalCancelledCount = 0; + let page = 1; + let hasMore = true; + + while (hasMore) { + const { data: runs } = await github.rest.actions.listWorkflowRuns({ + owner: context.repo.owner, + repo: context.repo.repo, + workflow_id: 'Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml', + status: 'queued', + per_page: 100, + page: page + }); + + if (runs.length === 0) { + hasMore = false; + break; + } + + for (const run of runs) { + if (run.id !== context.runId) { + try { + core.info(`Cancelling queued run #${run.id} (commit: ${run.head_sha.substring(0, 7)}, branch: ${run.head_branch})`); + await github.rest.actions.cancelWorkflowRun({ + owner: context.repo.owner, + repo: context.repo.repo, + run_id: run.id + }); + totalCancelledCount++; + } catch (error) { + core.warning(`Failed to cancel run #${run.id}: ${error.message}`); + } + } + } + + page++; + } + core.info(`Cancelled ${totalCancelledCount} pending workflow run(s)`); + - name: Tag commit as deployed run: | git config user.email "github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com" From d668e4a927fd531c0173765c7f83f57155a1e94f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Benjamin Michaelis Date: Sun, 17 May 2026 07:28:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 2/4] fix: Apply critical fixes to deployment cancellation step Address blocking issues identified by GPT 5.5 and Opus 4.6 code reviews: Critical Fixes: - Replace hardcoded 'Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml' with context.workflow Eliminates maintenance trap and silent failure mode on file renames - Add outer try-catch around listWorkflowRuns API call Prevents transient API errors from blocking production deployment tagging - Fix pagination check: runs.length < 100 instead of hasMore flag Clearer logic, prevents extra empty page fetch - Add debug logging for skipped current run Improves auditability and debugging Improvements: - Better comments explaining purpose and context - Improved error messages with action suggestions - More detailed logging with created_at timestamp - Outer error handling preserves deployment success despite API issues Note: Remaining consideration from review - filtering by commit age could be added in future to only cancel older commits (not newer ones). This is a design choice pending business requirements clarification. --- .github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml | 55 +++++++++++++-------- 1 file changed, 34 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) diff --git a/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml b/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml index 794e65c0..6f862c61 100644 --- a/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml +++ b/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml @@ -236,29 +236,34 @@ jobs: uses: actions/github-script@v9 with: script: | + // Cancel pending workflow runs queued from earlier commits. + // Uses context.workflow instead of hardcoded filename for resilience. let totalCancelledCount = 0;

Fix API Response Handling (Comment 3254800774) GitHub Actions API returns response object with data.workflow_runs array, not an array directly. Updated all three locations (lines 253, 255, 259, 279) to correctly destructure: const runs = data.workflow_runs; This fixes pagination and iteration logic that would have failed silently. 2. Remove Over-Scoped Workflow Permissions (Comment 3254800781) Removed actions: write from workflow-level permissions to follow least-privilege. Only deploy-production job needs this permission; it remains at job level. --- .github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml b/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml index 1230922f..72055207 100644 --- a/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml +++ b/.github/workflows/Build-Test-And-Deploy.yml @@ -8,7 +8,6 @@ on: permissions: id-token: write contents: read - actions: write jobs: build-and-test: @@ -243,7 +242,7 @@ jobs: try { while (true) { - const { data: runs } = await github.rest.actions.listWorkflowRuns({ + const { data } = await github.rest.actions.listWorkflowRuns({ owner: context.repo.owner, repo: context.repo.repo, workflow_id: context.workflow, @@ -251,6 +250,7 @@ jobs: per_page: 100, page: page }); + const runs = data.workflow_runs; if (runs.length === 0) { break;
