Summary

  • Fix the main.Version/version ldflags mismatch so release builds report their injected version in the MCP initialize response instead of dev.
  • Add make build-mcp, create its ignored output directory safely, and include its artifact in the existing clean target.
  • Test the real MCP subprocess over stdio, including the exact Make-produced artifact.
  • Gate host-native MCP builds on both macOS (Mach-O) and Linux (ELF), with both matrix legs required by ci-success. Windows is not supported.
  • Document OpenAI Codex CLI registration and project trust behavior.

Part of #1890. The remaining registry, GoReleaser, and MCPB phases are handled by the sequenced follow-up PRs.

Verification for da420367a9bd0dadac3657115befff2c826ae9d9

  • Three consecutive complete local verification passes on the same rebased head and tree.
  • macOS: host-native make build-mcp VERSION=v0.0.0-version-test produced Mach-O arm64; the exact binary completed the MCP initialize handshake and reported v0.0.0-version-test.
  • Linux: the digest-pinned Go 1.26.6 Bookworm image produced ELF arm64; the exact binary completed the same handshake and reported the same version.
  • go build ./... with Go 1.26.6 and GOWORK=off.
  • Race tests for ./cmd/cudly-mcp and ./mcp/....
  • golangci-lint v2.10.1, actionlint, zizmor, git diff --check, clean-target dry run, and platform-scope scans.
  • Full rebased five-file diff independently reviewed with no actionables or nitpicks.
  • Exact-head GitHub Actions green: 28 checks, including required macOS and Linux build legs.
  • Substantive CodeRabbit review covers exact head with zero actionables; the sole historical inline thread is resolved and outdated.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The MCP command now supports linker-injected release versions. The Makefile adds a build target and cleanup support. Tests and CI verify version propagation and platform builds. The README documents OpenAI Codex CLI configuration.

Changes

MCP versioned build and integration

Layer / File(s) Summary
Versioned MCP build
Makefile, cmd/cudly-mcp/main.go
The Makefile adds the build-mcp target, release metadata flags, and cleanup for the MCP binary. The command exports Version and passes it to NewServer.
Injected version verification
cmd/cudly-mcp/version_test.go
The test builds or uses the command binary, starts it over stdio, performs MCP initialization, and verifies ServerInfo.Version.
Cross-platform build validation
.github/workflows/ci.yml
CI builds the MCP binary on Ubuntu and macOS, validates native formats and injected versions, checks cleanup, and requires the job for CI success.
Codex CLI configuration
mcp/README.md
The README adds Codex CLI configuration examples with provider environment variables and no real-purchase setting.

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

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to da420

The change makes release builds report the injected MCP version and documents Codex CLI setup; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

Independent adversarial review for head 34a6bb24ddcc6d9ea22ad3c0789f91558c27700d.

Verdict: no confirmed functional findings in the current diff.

What I attacked:

Local evidence from the clean feat/mcp-release-machinery worktree:

  • go test ./cmd/cudly-mcp/... ./mcp/... passed.
  • make build-mcp VERSION=v0.0.0-review passed and emitted -X main.Version=v0.0.0-review.
  • go test ./cmd/cudly-mcp -run TestBuiltBinaryReportsInjectedVersion -count=1 -v passed.
  • GOTOOLCHAIN=go1.26.6 go test ./cmd/cudly-mcp/... ./mcp/... passed.
  • GOTOOLCHAIN=go1.26.6 go build ./... passed.
  • GOTOOLCHAIN=go1.26.6 go test -race ./cmd/cudly-mcp -run TestBuiltBinaryReportsInjectedVersion -count=1 -v passed.
  • git diff --check origin/main...HEAD passed.
  • gh pr checks 1891 shows all normal CI checks passed on this head.

Merge blockers that remain:

  • CodeRabbit is not substantively clean for current head. The current CodeRabbit status is green but its description is Review rate limited; the last substantive review was for 988acfa1fa4176365176779bb9c0d4869f28729d, not 34a6bb24ddcc6d9ea22ad3c0789f91558c27700d. This needs a serialized @coderabbitai full review after the shared rate limit clears.
  • The branch is behind live main (ae331a0c4cbe6956b0b4a2ee33c45a5118076be8). GitHub reports MERGEABLE/CLEAN, and my merge-tree check found no conflicts, but the final merge gate should still run after the branch is updated or GitHub has refreshed the merge ref against current main.

Residual local limitation: local golangci-lint could not be used as extra evidence because the available binaries panic on Go version metadata in this environment. CI's Lint Code job is green on this head.

Superseding independent adversarial review

Head reviewed: 10bd57a7dfd35bde4605b9f90501d36cc09d5040
Base checked: 29056487023d64fe96d8bc9616431e1f2f9ca99e
Linked issue: #1890. This PR intentionally covers B1 and D only; the PR body says Part of #1890 and leaves B2-B4/C for follow-up PRs, so it does not prematurely close the tracking issue.

Verdict: NO CONFIRMED FINDINGS. I found no current-head blocker.

What I attacked:

  • Patch equivalence after rebase: the current patch against 29056487023d64fe96d8bc9616431e1f2f9ca99e and the prior reviewed patch at 34a6bb24ddcc6d9ea22ad3c0789f91558c27700d both produce stable patch-id ea510c4c8b47abc14b068eea063b316e90fa5680.
  • Scope: git diff --name-only origin/main...HEAD is exactly Makefile, cmd/cudly-mcp/main.go, cmd/cudly-mcp/version_test.go, and mcp/README.md.
  • Version injection: Makefile now routes build-mcp through $(LDFLAGS), and $(LDFLAGS) injects -X main.Version=$(VERSION). cmd/cudly-mcp/main.go exports Version and passes it to cudlymcp.NewServer; mcp/server.go puts that value in mcp.Implementation.Version.
  • Real MCP stdio behavior: the regression test builds the real cmd/cudly-mcp binary with -X main.Version=v0.0.0-version-test, starts it over stdio via the MCP Go SDK, and verifies InitializeResult.ServerInfo.Version equals the injected value.
  • make build-mcp: GOTOOLCHAIN=go1.26.6 GOWORK=off make build-mcp VERSION=v0.0.0-review emitted -X main.Version=v0.0.0-review and completed successfully; strings bin/cudly-mcp confirms that value is embedded.
  • Codex CLI docs: the README's ~/.codex/config.toml, [mcp_servers.cudly], command/args/env, and trusted-project caveat match official OpenAI docs checked during review: https://developers.openai.com/codex/mcp, https://developers.openai.com/codex/config-reference, and https://developers.openai.com/codex/config-advanced.
  • x/crypto inheritance: root, Azure, and GCP modules resolve golang.org/x/crypto v0.55.0 on this rebased head; this PR has no module-file diff against the updated main.
  • CodeRabbit: the prior actionable Codex trust comment is resolved and outdated; current CodeRabbit state for this head is non-substantive, with no actionable comments and no review threads requiring action.
  • Six review dimensions plus reuse/scope: completeness, correctness, security, bugs, duplication, and over-engineering all came back clean for the reachable B1/D behavior.

Commands and exit codes:

  • gh pr view 1891 --repo LeanerCloud/CUDly --json headRefOid,baseRefOid,mergeStateStatus,mergeable,statusCheckRollup exit 0: head/base match the SHAs above, mergeable MERGEABLE, non-success checks [].

  • CodeRabbit review-thread GraphQL query exit 0: only the old README thread exists, and it is resolved plus outdated.

Findings: NO CONFIRMED FINDINGS.

…setup

The Makefile's shared $(LDFLAGS) has always injected -X main.Version, but
cmd/cudly-mcp declared a lowercase `version` var ldflags cannot address by
name, so a release build would silently report "dev" in the MCP initialize
response. Rename to the exported `Version` used by the other binaries, add
a build-mcp target reusing $(LDFLAGS), and add a subprocess test that builds
the real binary with an injected version and asserts the MCP client sees it
over stdio (confirmed to fail against the old lowercase var and pass after).

Also documents registering cudly-mcp with OpenAI Codex CLI's
~/.codex/config.toml [mcp_servers.cudly] table, alongside the existing
Claude Code mcp.json example.
…droom

TestBuiltBinaryReportsInjectedVersion's 2-minute build timeout only
accounted for a warm local build cache. In the "Unit Tests" CI job the
preceding `go test -race` step only warms the race-enabled build cache,
so this test recompiles the full AWS/Azure/GCP SDK dependency tree from
scratch for the non-race binary and was hitting "signal: killed" at
exactly the 2-minute mark. Raise the timeout to 5 minutes.
Codex CLI only loads a project-scoped .codex/config.toml when the
project directory is marked trusted; an untrusted project's config
layer is silently ignored. Callers following the previous wording
could register cudly there and see nothing load, with no indication
why.

Independent adversarial review for exact head da420367a9bd0dadac3657115befff2c826ae9d9, tree 2b4ba0560432c4fb393f35d2672da40ede439487, against base ad8c0a413c2b3b9639dde5f99b93f08fa1f733d3.

Verdict: no actionable findings and no nitpicks.

The review traced the full five-file diff, not only the latest correction commit. It checked:

  • linker injection from make build-mcp through main.Version into the real MCP stdio initialize response;
  • exact Make-produced artifact execution on macOS and Linux;
  • Mach-O/ELF matrix coverage and fail-closed ci-success aggregation;
  • clean-checkout directory creation and dry-run clean-target coverage;
  • macOS/Linux parity with no Windows implementation or CI path;
  • test scope, comments, security, reuse, and over-engineering;
  • Codex CLI TOML fields and trusted-project behavior against official OpenAI documentation;
  • interactions with the live rebased main tree.

Fresh local evidence on this exact head completed three consecutive full passes. Each pass built and executed the host-native MCP binary on macOS and in a digest-pinned Linux container, ran the exact injected-version handshake, Go build and race gates, golangci-lint v2.10.1, actionlint, zizmor, diff checks, platform scans, and tracked-clean reconciliation. The base, head, tree, and remote lease stayed unchanged throughout.

This review does not substitute for exact-head GitHub Actions or a substantive CodeRabbit verdict; both remain merge gates.

All four merge gates are satisfied for exact head da420367a9bd0dadac3657115befff2c826ae9d9 against base ad8c0a413c2b3b9639dde5f99b93f08fa1f733d3:

  1. Exact-head GitHub Actions: all 28 status checks are terminal and successful, including macOS Mach-O and Linux ELF MCP builds.
  2. CodeRabbit: the substantive exact-head review reports no actionable comments; its only historical inline finding is resolved and outdated.
  3. Independent review: the full five-file base-to-head diff has no actionables or nitpicks, with three consecutive local verification passes on both supported platforms.
  4. GitHub merge gate: MERGEABLE and CLEAN, with no unresolved review threads.

Normal squash merge is authorized. No admin bypass is used.
