📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughStaging Launchable processing now separates image publication from one-off E2E execution. Release qualification uses ChangesStaging Launchable qualification
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The one-off workflow’s permission guard does not currently enforce the intended contents-read-only token scope, so future changes could grant broader repository actions access without failing validation. Merge readiness requires tightening this check or obtaining explicit owner acceptance. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Require an exact one-off job permission set.
Line 1934 checks only contents. A job can add another permission, such as actions: write, without failing this boundary validator. Require permissions to equal { contents: "read" }. Add a mutation test that adds an extra permission.
Proposed fix
- asRecord(job.permissions).contents !== "read"
+ !isDeepStrictEqual(asRecord(job.permissions), { contents: "read" })As per path instructions: “Keep permissions least-privileged.”

Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Could the two Launchable jobs keep separate IDs and credential scopes while sharing one base contract? In .github/workflows/e2e.yaml, staging-brev-launchable and staging-brev-launchable-e2e-once repeat the same dependency, runner, timeout, permissions, concurrency group, trusted sparse checkout, private work-directory setup, lane script, and artifact-upload action. tools/e2e/workflow-boundary.mts mirrors that structure with validateStagingBrevLaunchableJob and a new validateOneOffStagingBrevLaunchableJob of about 100 lines.
A validateLaunchableJobBase helper or small contract table could own those shared fields. Each job-specific validator would then own only its selector, mode flag, credential environment, step order, and artifact set. This preserves the security and release distinction while reducing the new lines of code and preventing the common checkout or concurrency rules from drifting. The existing tests for both jobs are current consumers that can protect the shared contract.

Summary
Correct the scope introduced by #9351: staging Launchable image publication remains the normal and release behavior, while a separate explicit-only job can run one staging deployment and full E2E on demand. Maintainer skills and release policy no longer describe the full Launchable run as permanent or required.
