The winget-pkgs repository has tightened its accepted schema. Per
doc/ValidationFailureGuide.md:
- 'Manifest-Version-Deprecated: Update your manifest to use a supported
schema version. The recommended schema version is 1.12.0
(1.10.0 is also accepted).'
- 'Manifest-Validation-Error: Address all reported errors and resubmit.'
What changed in the template heredocs:
1. ManifestVersion: 1.6.0 → 1.12.0 in all 3 files
2. Version file: dropped Publisher/PublisherUrl/PackageName/License/
ShortDescription (those belong in defaultLocale only).
Replaced PackageLocale: en-US with DefaultLocale: en-US — that
field was renamed in schema 1.12.
3. Installer file: replaced InstallerMode: interactive with
InstallModes: [interactive, silent] (the singular 'InstallerMode'
was removed; InstallModes is now an array per-installer or root).
Dropped PackageLocale (not part of installer schema) and
InstallerScope: user (no longer supported at root, only per-installer).
4. Added # yaml-language-server: $schema=... comment to all 3 files
pointing at the official 1.12.0 JSON schemas — helps editor/IDE
auto-complete AND validates against the same schema the winget
validators use.
Supersedes PR microsoft/winget-pkgs#391801 (closed in same batch —
manifests there used the 1.6.0 schema and got Manifest-Validation-Error).
Sami's winget-pkgs submission bot has been firing one PR per release.
Three of them (#391151/391368/391388) were generated with a buggy path
format and accumulated PullRequest-Error / Needs-Author-Feedback labels
before Sami noticed. That pattern reads as spam to winget-pkgs moderators
and risks the maintainer goodwill we've built with stephengillie.
Two new safeguards:
1. Pre-flight check (distribute.yml, winget job):
- Before opening a PR, scan existing SamiAhmed7777 PRs on
microsoft/winget-pkgs for PullRequest-Error or
Needs-Author-Feedback labels
- If any are found, abort this submission with a clear error
- Also skip if a PR for this exact version is already open
2. New winget-watchdog.yml workflow (cron */30 * * * *):
- Every 30 min, scan open SamiAhmed7777 PRs
- For each one, inspect wingetbot comments for validation result
- If a PR has automatic-validation failure comments, post a
summary comment + close the PR automatically
- This prevents 'broken PR opened, forgotten for 24h' pattern
that creates the spam appearance
Both changes keep the existing tag-triggered release flow intact.
PUBLISHER_INITIAL was hardcoded to 'C' but the winget-pkgs convention
requires lowercase 'c' for the first-letter prefix folder. Additionally,
the manifest was being placed at manifests/c/CryptographicTriangles/<full
PackageIdentifier with dot>/<version>/, but the correct convention is
manifests/c/CryptographicTriangles/<short package name>/<version>/ — the
file *names* still use the full PackageIdentifier (e.g.
CryptographicTriangles.TrianglesQt.installer.yaml).
Without these fixes, microsoft/winget-pkgs Automatic Validation rejects
the PR with: "the casing of the file in disk or identical file is not
merged" because the path written to the (Windows, case-insensitive)
validator filesystem differs from what's in the git tree.
Closes superseded PRs microsoft/winget-pkgs#391151, #391368, #391388.
Avoid 'fetch first' errors when the same version gets re-distributed
(multiple tags or workflow re-runs). Each run uses its own branch in
the winget-pkgs fork.
- Chocolatey 'Check' step: add shell: bash so the [ -z ] syntax parses
- WinGet fork: remove --fork flag (renamed), use --remote=false instead
which omits the clone in the same step
distribute.yml:
- New 'chocolatey' job: updates nuspec version + install script SHA256,
packs .nupkg, pushes to chocolatey.org. Gated by CHOCO_SKIP_WACATAC
env var so it can be disabled while the Microsoft false-positive is
still active (set CHOCO_SKIP_WACATAC=true on the repo, flip to empty
after Microsoft clears the detection).
- New 'winget' job: forks microsoft/winget-pkgs (auto-creates fork if
needed), generates the three manifest files (version/locale/installer)
in the winget-pkgs v1.6.0 format, opens a PR.
Both jobs use the Windows setup.exe as the installer source.
Both jobs skip gracefully with a warning if their respective GitHub
secrets aren't set.
packaging/chocolatey/tools/chocolateyInstall.ps1:
- Rewritten to use the NSIS installer (.exe) instead of the old .zip
format (the v5.9.x release ships an NSIS .exe setup)
- Uses $env:ChocolateyPackageVersion so the workflow can substitute the
version at pack time
- checksum64 is '__CHECKSUM_PLACEHOLDER__' which the workflow replaces
with the computed SHA256
Required GitHub secrets (all added):
CHOCO_API_KEY - Chocolatey API key
WINGET_TOKEN - GitHub PAT with public_repo scope
The previous commit had a literal '***' placeholder where the GitHub
Actions expression ${{ secrets.HOMEBREW_GITHUB_TOKEN }} should have
been. The workflow couldn't parse, so runs showed as 'failure' with
zero jobs and the display name fell back to the file path.
Fixed by writing the correct expression directly.
Observed the workflow firing on regular push-to-master events, not just
tag pushes. GitHub is sometimes over-eager about workflow re-runs on
commits that touch the workflow file. Add an explicit job-level guard
if: github.event_name == 'workflow_dispatch' || startsWith(github.ref, 'refs/tags/v')
to all four jobs so the distribute jobs only run on tag pushes or
manual workflow_dispatch events.
New 'homebrew' job in distribute.yml:
- Waits for the macOS .dmg to be available on the GitHub release
- Computes the new SHA256
- Clones SamiAhmed7777/homebrew-triangles
- Updates version + sha256 in both Formula/triangles.rb and
Casks/cryptographic-triangles.rb
- Commits and pushes to main
- Skips gracefully with a warning if HOMEBREW_GITHUB_TOKEN is not set
Required GitHub secret: HOMEBREW_GITHUB_TOKEN (added)
GitHub Actions doesn't allow 'secrets' context in 'if:' conditionals,
only in 'env:'. Reworked the workflow to:
- Capture DOCKERHUB_TOKEN and AUR_SSH_KEY into env vars at job level
- Each step that needs a secret checks env.* and exits 0 with a
::warning:: annotation if not set
- Skipped steps display a final summary in the job log
Same behavior, just no parser errors.
New workflow .github/workflows/distribute.yml:
- Triggers on v* tag push (and workflow_dispatch for manual runs)
- Docker job: builds + pushes to samiahmed7777/trianglesd with both
:VERSION and :latest tags, plus a post-push smoke test
- AUR job: runs in archlinux container, downloads the release .debs,
updates PKGBUILD with new version + SHA256s, regenerates .SRCINFO
via makepkg, commits and pushes to AUR via SSH
- Both jobs skip gracefully (with a clear warning) if their respective
GitHub secrets aren't set, so the workflow can be merged and tested
before secrets are configured
- Waits up to 10 minutes for the build-all release artifacts to be
available (build-all and distribute run in parallel on the same tag)
Required GitHub secrets:
DOCKERHUB_TOKEN — Docker Hub access token (have in vault)
AUR_SSH_KEY — Private key of the AUR packager (~/.ssh/aur_key)
* Add triangles-cli: JSON-RPC client (port bitcoin-cli pattern)
Triangles never had a CLI client (bitcoin-cli analog). This adds
triangles-cli as a third build target alongside trianglesd and
triangles-qt.
- src/triangles-cli.cpp: self-contained JSON-RPC 1.0 client.
Reads triangles.conf for credentials, supports -rpcuser/-rpcpassword
/-rpcconnect/-rpcport/-testnet/-datadir/-conf flags. Implements
-getinfo (synthesized summary from getnetworkinfo/getblockchaininfo
/getwalletinfo) and raw method dispatch. JSON via json_spirit compat
shim (json_compat.h), HTTP via boost::asio, base64 auth inline.
No util.cpp / wallet.cpp / net.cpp / triangles_common link dep —
keeps the binary small (~600 KB Linux, ~1.5 MB Windows).
- CMake: new option(BUILD_CLI ON) + add_executable(triangles-cli)
in src/CMakeLists.txt. Status line added.
- CI: BUILD_CLI=ON added to build-windows-daemon and build-linux-daemon
jobs. triangles-cli.exe bundled into windows-daemon artifact
alongside trianglesd.exe. triangles-cli added to linux-daemon .deb
package (with launcher in /usr/bin).
- Default ON; set BUILD_CLI=OFF to skip.
Closes the open 'triangles-cli.exe missing from Windows build'
follow-up (the binary wasn't missing — it never existed).
Patterned after Bitcoin Core bitcoin-cli and Dash Core dash-cli.
* Fix macOS build: drop Boost::system/find_package component, use std::filesystem
Homebrew's boost formula doesn't ship the boost_system CMake config file,
so find_package(Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS system) failed on macOS.
- Replace boost::filesystem with std::filesystem (C++17, no Boost dep)
- Drop 'filesystem' from find_package — only headers needed (asio + system)
- Link libboost_system explicitly per-platform by library name, resolved
via the platform's default search path (Homebrew toolchain on macOS,
system libs on Linux, MSYS2 on Windows)
CI will rerun automatically on PR push.
* Fix macOS build: add Boost::boost target for headers, link boost_system
The previous fix dropped the find_package component but also killed the
boost include path. Now use the modern Boost::boost header-only target
(available in Boost 1.83+) which sets up include directories without
requiring a per-component config file.
Link libboost_system explicitly by name on all platforms — the linker
finds it via the platform's default search path:
- Linux: /usr/lib (libboost_system.so)
- macOS Homebrew: /opt/homebrew/lib (libboost_system.dylib)
- Windows MSYS2: mingw64/bin (libboost_system-mt-X-XX.dll)
* Drop Boost entirely from triangles-cli: use raw sockets for HTTP
Third time's the charm. After two CI failures chasing boost::asio / libboost_system
linking issues across platforms (Homebrew missing config on macOS, MSYS2 versioned
names on Windows, CMake targets that don't quite work everywhere), rip the whole
Boost dependency out of the CLI and use raw POSIX/Winsock sockets.
- triangles-cli.cpp: replaced boost::asio with raw socket() / connect() / send()
/ recv() / getaddrinfo(). Cross-platform: #ifdef _WIN32 for Winsock + WSAStartup
/ WSACleanup, else POSIX. ~100 lines of clean portable socket code.
- src/CMakeLists.txt: dropped find_package(Boost) entirely. Only links
json_compat (header-only) + ws2_32 on Windows. No boost libs to find.
Should be the last fix needed for this PR.
* Fix Windows packaging step: simplify bash { } | sort -u | while pattern
The previous step used a bash group command piped through sort -u and a
while loop. Under MSYS2 bash + 'set -e -o pipefail' (GitHub Actions
default), this triggered a non-zero exit even when the loop body
succeeded, causing the Windows daemon job to fail at the packaging step
(the actual link of both trianglesd.exe and triangles-cli.exe succeeded).
Replaced the { } | sort -u | while pattern with a temp-file-based dedup:
- ldd both binaries, append to /tmp/cli-dlls.txt (or cli-libs.txt on Linux)
- sort -u the temp file
- pipe the result into the while loop (simpler pipeline, no group)
Also applied the same simplification to the Linux .deb packaging for
consistency, even though the Linux build was passing.
* Simplify DLL packaging: plain for loop, no pipe-into-while
The previous attempts used 'ldd | sort -u | while read; do ... done' patterns
that exit 1 under MSYS2 bash + 'set -e -o pipefail' even when the script
ran successfully. Replaced with a plain 'for bin in ...; do ldd > list.txt;
while read; do cp; done < list.txt; done' pattern that has no pipelines
other than the standard redirection, and uses IFS= read -r for safe line
iteration.
Also moved temp files from /tmp to the working directory (./dll-list.txt)
to avoid any MSYS2 /tmp path-translation edge cases.
* diagnostic: add tracing to Windows packaging step
* Add package-windows-daemon.sh + package-linux-daemon.sh scripts
Move the Windows daemon packaging step and the Linux .deb build into
committed shell scripts under scripts/ci/. This bypasses GitHub Actions'
inline-run-block quirks (silent exit 1 under msys2 + set -e -o pipefail
with multi-line scripts) and makes the packaging logic debuggable locally.
* Switch to script-file packaging for Windows + Linux daemon jobs
Replace inline multi-line run: blocks with invocations of the
scripts/ci/package-*.sh scripts. This sidesteps the GitHub Actions
msys2 + 'set -e -o pipefail' issue that caused silent exit 1 on the
Windows daemon packaging step. The scripts are also debuggable locally.

The secure-messaging store (smsgDB) used the LevelDB API directly. Mass-
mapped to the equivalent RocksDB types: leveldb::DB/Status/WriteBatch/
Iterator/Slice/ReadOptions/WriteOptions/WriteBatch::Handler -> rocksdb::*.
The RocksDB API surface for our usage is binary-compatible — pure namespace
substitution, no semantic changes. Consumers in rpcsmessage.cpp and
qt/messagemodel.cpp updated to match.
RocksDB now becomes a hard build dependency (was optional behind
BUILD_ROCKSDB). The chain-DB rocksdb backend is consequently always
available; -chaindb=leveldb remains the default until the Phase-4
LevelDB retirement. Removed the BUILD_ROCKSDB cmake option, the
#ifdef BUILD_ROCKSDB guards in txdb*, and the runtime error path
that triggered when the flag was off.
CI updated: librocksdb-dev (Ubuntu), mingw-w64-x86_64-rocksdb (MSYS2),
and rocksdb (Homebrew) added to all build jobs.

Format and tidy enforce only on lines changed in PRs (diff-only via
git-clang-format and clang-tidy-diff.py) — existing files keep their
current style until edited. Mass reformat deferred; .git-blame-ignore-revs
stub is in place for whenever that happens.
Sanitizer lane builds with -fsanitize=address,undefined and runs the
unit suite. continue-on-error: true initially so we can triage findings
without blocking PRs. UB categories pervasive in the Hash9 C cascade
(alignment, signed-integer-overflow, vptr) are suppressed pending
file-by-file fixes.

Linux Qt .deb: bundles all .so files + LD_LIBRARY_PATH wrapper
Linux daemon .deb: same + systemd Environment= for LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Windows: already handled (ldd scan for DLLs)
macOS: already handled (install_name_tool into Frameworks)
Removed all Depends: from .deb control files. Every package
runs on a clean machine with nothing pre-installed.
Windows Qt: ldd scan copies every MSYS2 DLL into installer
Windows daemon: ships with DLLs + Tor in a zip
macOS: copies Homebrew dylibs into .app/Frameworks with install_name_tool
Linux: unchanged (.deb Depends handles it via apt)
Windows: NSIS setup.exe — double-click to install with Start Menu
shortcuts, desktop icon, uninstaller in Add/Remove Programs.
Tor bundled in tor/ subfolder, auto-detected by wallet.
Linux: .deb packages (dpkg -i) for both Qt wallet and daemon.
Wallet gets desktop entry + app icon. Daemon gets systemd service.
Tor bundled in /usr/lib/cryptographic-triangles/tor/.
macOS: DMG with Tor inside .app bundle (unchanged).
All platforms: download one file, install, run. Zero configuration.
Every release now ships with Tor integrated:
- Windows Qt/daemon: tor.exe + geoip data in tor/ subfolder
- Linux Qt/daemon: tor binary + geoip data in tor/ subfolder
- macOS DMG: tor binary inside .app/Contents/MacOS/tor/
The wallet auto-detects tor in the tor/ subfolder next to the binary.
No user configuration needed - Tor starts automatically on launch.
Release assets now packaged as archives (zip/tar.gz) to include
the tor/ directory alongside the wallet binary.
Every release now ships with the Tor Expert Bundle included:
- Windows Qt: tor/ directory alongside triangles-qt.exe
- Windows daemon: tor/ directory alongside trianglesd.exe
- Linux Qt: tor/ directory in release tarball
- Linux daemon: tor/ directory in release tarball
- macOS: tor/ inside .app bundle (Contents/MacOS/tor/)
The wallet already auto-detects tor binary next to itself or in
a tor/ subfolder. Zero configuration needed for users - Tor starts
automatically with the wallet and stops when it exits.
Release assets now packaged as zip/tar.gz to include tor directory.
Build jobs extract MAJOR.MINOR.REVISION from src/clientversion.h.
Release job extracts from the git tag name. No more forgetting to
update the workflow when bumping versions.

miner_tests.cpp references CreateNewBlock() which was never ported
from Bitcoin to Triangles (PoS-only chain). Exclude it from TESTOBJS
via make filter-out. The remaining 23 test suites should compile.
CI job uses continue-on-error so we can see what passes without
blocking builds.

Sync fixes:
- Extend stall detection beyond IBD to catch post-IBD sync gaps
- Walk-forward inv continuation to avoid CBlockLocator exponential gap loop
- Track walk-forward progress for stall recovery without restarting from scratch
GUI fixes:
- Load transactions synchronously in constructor (deferred QTimer never fired)
- Use beginResetModel/endResetModel instead of deprecated reset()
- Schedule full refresh on TRY_LOCK failure to avoid dropped CT_NEW notifications
- Only update cachedNumBlocks after successful balance check (prevents permanent loss)
- Add GetAllBalances() single-pass balance retrieval with TRY_LOCK
Bootstrap:
- Add trusted snapshot manifest verification for bootstrap archives
- Add IsKnownCheckpoint() to validate manifest against compiled-in checkpoints
- Skip txleveldb rebuild when verified manifest is present
Bump version to 5.3.7 across all packaging manifests.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add test-linux-unit CI job; release now depends on tests passing
- Replace LOCK(cs_wallet) with TRY_LOCK in transactiontablemodel to avoid GUI freezes
