Upgrade dependencies and frameworks under evidence
Inventory the affected surface, change in controlled increments, and retain compatibility evidence before delivery.
What does this maintenance workflow workflow cover?
Inventory the affected surface, change in controlled increments, and retain compatibility evidence before delivery.
What should an evaluator inspect?
Inspect the stated requirements, workspace boundary, validation evidence, approval points, and stated deployment scope rather than inferring results from an example workflow.
Is this customer proof?
No. Workflow pages describe an evaluation model and may use fictional product artifacts. They do not assert customer adoption, outcome, or availability evidence.
Can we run this workflow today?
A released self-managed artifact and tested quickstart are not published. Review the self-hosted requirements or register interest in future Cloud or Enterprise offerings.
What is the next step?
Use the ungated sample run and pilot scorecard to frame the evaluation, then choose a request path only if the operating model fits.
Starting condition and desired outcome
A dependency or framework is behind, while migration notes, transitive impact, and runtime compatibility are spread across several manual checks. The outcome is a bounded upgrade with the required checks and remaining risks visible.
The current manual workflow
The BranchRunner workflow
- 01Inventory impact
Record versions, advisories, affected APIs, and explicit compatibility requirements.
- 02Upgrade a bounded slice
Provision an isolated workspace and change one dependency boundary at a time.
- 03Validate compatibility
Run builds, tests, migrations, and preview checks selected for this repository.
- 04Review and deliver
Review the diff and migration evidence before approving a draft pull request.
Evidence produced
The run keeps claims separate from checks and decisions. The evidence below describes the record, not a guaranteed outcome.
Product example. Repository, checks, and identities are illustrative; configure them for your system.
Where a person stays in control
A person approves version range and migration boundary before edits.
Ambiguous or destructive migrations wait for a named decision.
Compatibility checks and known exceptions are visible at handoff.
The change remains a draft until a person approves delivery.
What the workflow can produce
Integrations, deployment, and edition fit
Validate the workflow against one real repository
Bring the starting condition, required checks, and approval boundaries. We will identify what can be configured today and what remains deployment work.
