build(solution): Consume ploch-common as released packages - #52
Conversation
Switch the cross-repo dependency on ploch-common from relative ProjectReference to PackageReference against the stable 4.0.47 release, so the packed libraries declare stable dependency ranges. A cross-repo ProjectReference becomes a NuGet dependency at pack time, carrying whatever version the sibling checkout happens to be on. The release therefore would have shipped a stable Ploch.CommandLine.Spectre depending on a prerelease Ploch.Common - fatal under NU5104 with TreatWarningsAsErrors. The packed nuspecs now list Ploch.Common, Ploch.Common.Apps.Shared and Ploch.Common.DependencyInjection at 4.0.47. Three defects had to be fixed for this to work at all: - nuget.config mapped Ploch.* only to GitHub Packages. Source mapping is longest-prefix-wins and exclusive, so nuget.org was never consulted for a Ploch package and the stable release was unreachable (NU1103). The pattern is now listed under both feeds. - The test projects declared no xunit packages, inheriting the harness through the sibling ProjectReference closure. A PackageReference only propagates what the nuspec declares, and Ploch.TestingSupport.XUnit3.Dependencies declares Microsoft.NET.Test.Sdk with exclude="Build,Analyzers" and omits xunit.runner.visualstudio entirely, so the suite built clean and discovered no tests. The harness is now declared in Directory.Build.props for every test project. - The solution included eight ploch-common source and test projects, so this repository compiled and tested another repository's code. Removed. UsePlochProjectReferences=true restores ProjectReference resolution for cross-repo development; both modes build clean and pass all 265 tests. release.yml no longer checks out ploch-common - it built only the main solution, so the sources were unused and the moving master ref was the last path by which a prerelease could reach a release. The sample now pins the stable 4.0.47 instead of 4.0.21-prerelease. It previously failed to build standalone with NU1109 then CS7069; it now builds with zero warnings, passes 41 tests and runs end to end. Ploch.Common.Apps.Shared is pinned locally because it is published but missing from the shared Ploch.Packages.props (mrploch/mrploch-development#21). Remaining CI cleanup: #51.

Hey - I've reviewed your changes and they look great!
Sourcery assessment
Needs a human reviewer. If package resolution or centralized versions are wrong, the release could publish packages with incorrect dependency metadata or incompatible sibling versions. Reverting stops future releases, but an already published package remains externally available and would need a corrective release or consumer upgrade.

TIP This summary will be updated as you push new changes.
ploch-common renamed its default branch from master to main, so every
workflow that checked the sibling out at `master` failed before doing
any work:
build Clone ploch-common fatal: Remote branch master not found
qodana actions/checkout A branch or tag with the name 'master'
could not be found
Confirmed against the remote: `git ls-remote --heads` lists `main` and
no `master`. Pre-existing breakage rather than a consequence of the
package switch - the last green build on main was 2026-08-28, before
the rename.
build-dotnet.yml keeps the clone: its `Build sample application` step
deliberately runs -p:UsePlochProjectReferences=true so a library change
cannot break the sample silently, and that needs the sources. Whether
publish-docs and qodana still need the checkout at all now that the
solution restores from packages is the open question in #51.

Pull Request Overview
This PR transitions the project to consume ploch-common via stable NuGet packages (v4.0.47) to resolve release-blocking dependency issues. The changes include an optional local development mode and updates to the GitHub release workflow. Codacy analysis indicates the PR is up to standards with no new quality issues or complexity regressions.
There is a notable gap in the implementation relative to the stated acceptance criteria. Requirements for updating nuget.config, Directory.Build.props, and the SampleApp, as well as the removal of projects from the solution (.slnx), are not reflected in the file list provided for this review. These components are critical for fixing the NuGet source mapping and ensuring test discovery in package mode. These missing changes should be addressed to fully satisfy the PR requirements.
Test suggestions
- Verify test discovery and execution in PackageReference mode
- Verify build and restore using UsePlochProjectReferences=true
- Verify SampleApp restores and builds as a standalone project with stable dependencies
- Ensure NuGet source mapping allows Ploch packages from both nuget.org and GitHub

TIP How was this review? Give us feedback
Seven agent-configuration files were swept into 9232f00 by accident: the index still held them staged from a `git stash pop`, and a plain `git commit` commits the index rather than only the paths named in the preceding `git add`. None of them belong to this branch, which is about consuming ploch-common as released packages. Restored to their state on main so the pull request diff contains only the build and workflow changes. The content is not lost - it remains in 9232f00, and the working-tree copies are handed back uncommitted. One of them, .claude/rules/naming.md, is a real fix for #50 (the rule tells agents to use camelCase for C# methods) and wants its own branch and commit message rather than a silent ride on this one.

Addresses the findings from the three-reviewer external panel (Codex, Antigravity/Gemini 3.1 Pro, Copilot/Grok 4.6) and the four GitHub PR bots. All three external reviewers returned APPROVE_WITH_NOTES. Directory.Packages.props - the local Ploch.Common.Apps.Shared pin is now Remove-then-Include, versioned from $(PlochCommonPackagesVersion). A second PackageVersion for an id the imported shared file also defines is a hard error, verified: "error NU1506: Warning As Error: Duplicate 'PackageVersion' items found". Because CI checks out mrploch-development at the moving main branch, merging the upstream fix this pin anticipates (mrploch-development#21) would have broken restore here with no commit in this repository. Verified by simulating that merge: restore succeeds and resolves a single entry. Found by Codex. release.yml - GH_PACKAGES_TOKEN is now validated fail-fast alongside GH_TOKEN, since assigning an unset secret still sends an empty password and 401s. Its rationale is rewritten: an unauthenticated eligible feed neither reliably fails nor is merely cosmetic. NuGet queries sources concurrently and rethrows a terminal protocol failure, so whether the nuget.org match arrives before the GitHub feed exhausts its retries is a race - one green run is a sample of it, not a proof. It is also load-bearing, because prerelease Ploch builds exist only on that feed. build-dotnet.yml - the sample build now passes -p:GeneratePackageOnBuild=false. Copilot reported that this step repacks the libraries over the package-mode nupkgs the workflow publishes, with ploch-common as a prerelease ProjectReference dependency - the #47 defect returning. Codex investigated the same hypothesis and refuted it; measurement on a clean tree confirms the refutation, because the step packs into bin/Debug while the publish script globs bin/Release. The suppression is kept as defence in depth: the only thing preventing the bug is that the libraries are not members of the sample solution, so adding them would silently arm it. Also corrected several comments that had become false: the claim that both reference modes are exercised in CI (they are not - only the sample is built in project-reference mode, tracked in #51), the MSB3202 rationale for the ploch-common clones in build-dotnet and publish-docs, release.yml's reference to sibling repositories plural, and "four major versions" where 2.0.1 to 4.0.47 is two. Documented the residual dependency-confusion consideration of mapping a wildcard to a public feed, and added PrivateAssets to the test host and VSTest adapter to match the SDK template. Follow-ups filed rather than fixed here: #53 (release builds read Ploch versions from a moving sibling checkout) and #54 (fork PRs cannot authenticate the GitHub feed, so they will fail during any prerelease cycle).

Two findings from the PR reviewers on the previous commit. CodeRabbit: GH_PACKAGES_TOKEN was declared at job level, so the package credential was readable by every step in the job - checkout, artefact upload, the GitHub Release action, and the Qodana container action, none of which need it. Moved to the steps that actually restore: "Restore dependencies" in release.yml, "Build documentation site" in publish-docs.yml, and the Qodana Scan action, which restores inside its own container. The job-level declaration in build-dotnet.yml is pre-existing and left alone; several of its steps consume the feed. Copilot: the Validate GH_PACKAGES_TOKEN step only tested that the secret was non-empty, while its own message promised to catch an expired token or a missing read:packages scope. A non-empty but invalid token would have passed the gate and then 401'd during restore - the exact failure the step exists to pre-empt. It now authenticates against the GitHub Packages NuGet index and requires HTTP 200, mirroring how the existing GH_TOKEN validation curls the API.

User description
Describe your changes
Switches the cross-repo dependency on
ploch-commonfrom relativeProjectReferencetoPackageReferenceagainst the stable 4.0.47 release, so the packed libraries declare stable dependency ranges. This is the change the v4 release of ploch-common unblocked.Why it was a release blocker
A cross-repo
ProjectReferencebecomes a NuGet dependency at pack time, carrying whatever version the sibling checkout happens to be on. The release would therefore have shipped a stablePloch.CommandLine.Spectredepending on a prereleasePloch.Common— fatal under NU5104 withTreatWarningsAsErrors=true.Verified by inspecting the packed nuspecs (see Testing):
Ploch.Common*dependency beforePloch.CommandLine.Spectre4.1-prerelease)4.0.47Ploch.CommandLine.Spectre.Serilog4.0.47Ploch.CommandLine.Spectre.FluentValidation4.0.47Changes
Three separate defects had to be fixed before the switch worked at all. Each was found by building, not by reading.
1.
nuget.configmade the stable release unreachable.Ploch.*was mapped only to GitHub Packages. NuGet source mapping is longest-prefix-wins and exclusive, so the more specificPloch.*pattern won and nuget.org was never consulted for a Ploch package — restore failed withNU1103: ... Versions from nuget.org were not considered. GitHub Packages only ever holds CI prerelease builds, so this repository was structurally incapable of consuming a stable Ploch dependency regardless of how the csproj files were wired.Ploch.*is now listed under both feeds, making both eligible.2. The test projects had no test harness of their own. They declared no xunit packages at all, inheriting the runner through the sibling
ProjectReferenceclosure — aProjectReferencepropagates the referenced project's entirePackageReferenceclosure, aPackageReferenceonly propagates what the nuspec declares. The publishedPloch.TestingSupport.XUnit3.DependenciesdeclaresMicrosoft.NET.Test.Sdkwithexclude="Build,Analyzers"(stripping the MSBuild targets that register the test host) and omitsxunit.runner.visualstudioentirely. Result: the suite built clean and discovered nothing —No test is available ... Make sure that test discoverer & executors are registered. The harness is now declared once inDirectory.Build.propsfor every test project, matching the existingcoverlet.msbuildpattern.3. The solution contained another repository's code.
Ploch.CommandLine.Spectre.slnxincluded eightploch-commonsource and test projects, so this repository compiled and ran ploch-common's test suite as part of its own build. Removed.Plus:
Directory.Packages.propsnow imports the sharedmrploch-development/dependencies/Ploch.Packages.props, replacing a localPloch.Common 2.0.1pin that was two major versions behind what this repository's own published package depends on.release.ymlno longer checks outploch-common. It builds only the main solution, so the sources were unused — and the movingmasterref was the last path by which a prerelease could reach a release.samples/SampleApppins stable4.0.47instead of4.0.21-prerelease.External review
Three reviewers from three model families, each given the whole branch at high effort. All three returned
APPROVE_WITH_NOTES; every finding is fixed, declined with evidence, or filed.APPROVE_WITH_NOTESAPPROVE_WITH_NOTES--effort high)APPROVE_WITH_NOTESgit status --porcelainwas captured before the reviews and compared after: none of the reviewers modified the tree.The findings that changed the code
A latent restore-breaking time bomb (Codex). The local
Ploch.Common.Apps.Sharedpin was a plainIncludealongside the shared-props import. A secondPackageVersionfor an id the imported file also defines is a hard error, not a warning — verified:Since CI checks out
mrploch-developmentat the movingmainbranch, merging the upstream fix this pin anticipates (mrploch/mrploch-development#21) would have broken restore here with no commit in this repository. Now written asRemove-then-Includeversioned from$(PlochCommonPackagesVersion), so it is collision-proof and degrades into a no-op once upstream lands. Verified by simulating that merge: restore succeeds, single entry resolved.GH_PACKAGES_TOKENwas never validated (Copilot). Setting the env var is not the same as having the secret — an unset secret still sends an empty password and takes the 401. AValidate GH_PACKAGES_TOKEN secretstep now mirrors the existingGH_TOKENvalidation. The token was also added topublish-docs.ymlandqodana_code_quality.yml, which had the same gap.A false claim in my own comment (Codex).
Directory.Build.propsasserted that both reference modes are exercised in CI. They are not — the single-p:UsePlochProjectReferences=trueinvocation builds the sample, not the main test projects. Comment corrected; adding a CI job for it is tracked in #51.A disagreement between reviewers, settled by measurement
Copilot reported as should-fix that the sample build step repacks the libraries over the package-mode nupkgs this workflow publishes, with
ploch-commonas a prereleaseProjectReferencedependency — the #47 defect returning through the back door. Codex independently investigated the same hypothesis and refuted it.Measured on a fully clean tree: the sample build packs the libraries into
bin/Debug, whilepublish-nuget-packages.shglobs*/bin/Release/*.nupkg. The published artefacts are untouched. Codex was right.Copilot's caveat was kept, though, because the only thing preventing the bug is an incidental configuration-mapping quirk — the library projects are not members of the sample solution, so they do not inherit its
Releasemapping. Adding them would silently arm it. The step now passes-p:GeneratePackageOnBuild=falseas defence in depth.Declined, with reasons
Ploch.TestingSupport.XUnit3.Dependenciesreference fromSpectre.Testsas redundant, sinceAutoMoqsupplies it transitively. Verified it is redundant (removal builds and passes 265 tests) and declined anyway: the central lesson of this PR is that relying on a transitive closure you do not control is what silently broke test discovery. Depending onAutoMoq's nuspec continuing to declareDependenciesreintroduces exactly that fragility.Ploch.*wildcard to a public feed. Real in principle, not actionable today — everyPloch.*package this repository consumes is published on nuget.org. Documented innuget.configwith the condition under which it would become real.Corrections to my own verification, on the record
PlochPackagesVersionis still1.0.26-pr.11.3-..., a PR prerelease build (flagged by both Codex and Copilot). So the standalone sample verification exercised an olderPloch.CommandLine.*package, not this branch's code — thePloch.Commonpin it fixes is the part SampleApp does not build against the published packages (Ploch.Common pinned to 2.0.1) #46 was about. Bumping it is a release-commit task, noted in the file's own comment and in Get the project into releasable state and release as v1 #6.2.0.1→4.0.47is two major increments, not four. Comment fixed.Design Decisions
Dual-mode rather than pure PackageReference.
UsePlochProjectReferencesdefaults tofalse(packages) for CI, the release, and everyday work;-p:UsePlochProjectReferences=truerestoresProjectReferenceresolution for cross-repo development, where a ploch-common change must be visible here before it is published. Chosen over deleting theProjectReferences outright because the localploch-commoncheckout is on4.1-prerelease— five commits ahead of thev4.0.47tag — so the two modes are genuinely not interchangeable and both need to keep working. The property name reuses the existing in-repo convention fromsamples/SampleApp/ProjectReferences.propsrather than importing ploch-data's separateUseProjectReferences, so the repository has one switch, not two.Ploch.Common.Apps.Sharedpinned locally. It is published at 4.0.47 but missing from the sharedPloch.Packages.props, so it cannot be centrally versioned from there yet. Filed upstream as mrploch/mrploch-development#21; the local pin carries a pointer and should be removed once that lands.ploch-data untouched. This repository consumes no ploch-data packages. The shared props bump from 3.0.1 to 4.0.1 is already in flight as mrploch/mrploch-development#20.
