Nocter v0.21.0 Publication and Audit

Status: published and externally audited (2026-08-30). This immutable record owns the final qualification, publication, and public-asset evidence for v0.21.0. Public changes are summarized in the English release notes; language behavior remains normative only in the specification.

Qualified Source and Artifact

The completed implementation scope and qualification are recorded in:

Release-content commit df0cf643c51e109fa80fe793d15f67668c82d2d4 passed two independent locked workspace test runs, each reporting 1,445 passed, zero failed, and one ignored public-HTTPS test. The explicit HTTPS test passed separately. Warnings-denied all-target Clippy passed twice in external targets. Formatting, manifest validation, 301-page documentation generation, and repository-integrity checks also passed.

Deterministic packaging generated the optimized compiler twice in independent temporary Cargo targets. The compressed archives matched byte for byte, their extracted .nocter/ homes matched recursively, and the fresh extraction passed the complete installed-home smoke matrix without mutating itself. The retained candidate was:

archive: dist/nocter-v0.21.0-arm64-darwin.tar.gz;
byte size: 8,170,000;
SHA-256: 3648737369b23086c7e70a91b59998c6f25402818b8bfb21a76bd6e2fcca62e8;
compiler: ARM64 Mach-O reporting release 0.21.0;
standard library: all 96 tracked source files.

Fresh extraction passed version and installation diagnosis, help, package initialization, locked/offline check and native test, deterministic JSON graph, run, explicit build, direct Mach-O execution, and framed LSP analysis of installed standard-library contract and implementation sources.

Publication

Nocter v0.21.0 was published at github.com/rvo-jp/nocter/releases/tag/v0.21.0 on 2026-08-30. Annotated tag v0.21.0 resolves to publication commit 3e283c2972a2676d2ec9b01193c05dcaf460b324, which contains the public download links, English release notes, current specification, standard library, packaging inputs, and generated website.

GitHub reports v0.21.0 as the latest release. It is neither a draft nor a prerelease and contains exactly one asset: nocter-v0.21.0-arm64-darwin.tar.gz, 8,170,000 bytes, with digest sha256:3648737369b23086c7e70a91b59998c6f25402818b8bfb21a76bd6e2fcca62e8. The publication timestamp is 2026-08-30T13:48:04Z.

Post-Publication Audit

The asset was downloaded from its public release URL into a new disposable directory. It compared byte for byte with the qualified local candidate, and its independently computed SHA-256 matched both the candidate record and GitHub's asset digest. The public latest-release endpoint resolved to v0.21.0. The public annotated tag object resolves through abd3e4689351d60e40454711a9b22ba60e180519 to the exact publication commit recorded above, and remote main contained that same commit when the audit ran.

The release asset is immutable by project policy. Any correction after v0.21.0 requires a new version, a new tag, a new qualification run, and a newly published archive; the existing tag and asset must not be replaced.
