Nocter v0.24.0 Publication and Audit

Status: published and externally audited (2026-09-01). This immutable record owns the final qualification, publication, and public-asset evidence for v0.24.0. 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 2e96d14feed60b0e7f33ee3fd9eb5950a6b9efd0 passed two independent locked workspace test runs, each reporting 1,473 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, 342-page documentation generation and reproducibility, and repository-integrity checks also passed. Qualification evidence was committed as 480a601e7d8405f8700148bfc18582b1aa10e7b3.

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-v0.24.0-arm64-darwin.tar.gz;
byte size: 8,177,851;
SHA-256: bf0cafd12b4c7cdc4f7ac467a468035d37ce4ff41d4c3636a1ed2cb0bfadcd06;
compiler: ARM64 Mach-O reporting release 0.24.0;
compiler SHA-256: 49745aa20380d301734c61f4db27ba7b9da1f43f20c9bfb9cb456d5e6819e0d4;
standard-library tree SHA-256: ec253598f6a19017b7562dbe551466bf072af3189f48cd554d23ff44de101139;
standard library: exactly 112 tracked regular files.

Fresh extraction passed version and installation diagnosis, help, package initialization, locked/offline check and native test, two byte-identical package graphs, run, explicit build, direct Mach-O execution, every public example check, and framed LSP analysis. Separate copied homes were rejected after either the installed compiler or standard-library content was changed.

Publication

Nocter v0.24.0 was published at github.com/rvo-jp/nocter/releases/tag/v0.24.0 on 2026-09-01. Annotated tag v0.24.0 resolves to publication commit f7e372c63cc4a8c1a831bf95c7dd8f6f75d1bdbf, which contains the public download links, English release notes, current specification, standard library, packaging inputs, and generated website.

GitHub reports v0.24.0 as the latest release. It is neither a draft nor a prerelease and contains exactly one asset: nocter-v0.24.0-arm64-darwin.tar.gz, 8,177,851 bytes, with digest sha256:bf0cafd12b4c7cdc4f7ac467a468035d37ce4ff41d4c3636a1ed2cb0bfadcd06. The publication timestamp is 2026-09-01T01:00:38Z.

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 v0.24.0. The public annotated tag object resolves through c0512ba8cbbb234731fec31f7fa60382d40afdbf 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 v0.24.0 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.
