## 🤖 Automation Coverage

### Fully Automated (Zero Maintenance)
These distributions update automatically on every release with no manual intervention required:

#### ✅ Crates.io (Rust)
- **Workflow**: `.github/workflows/publish-crates.yml`
- **Trigger**: Release published
- **Command**: `cargo publish`
<!-- PMAT not yet published to crates.io: - **Status**: Live at https://crates.io/crates/pmat -->

#### ✅ npm (Node.js)  
- **Workflow**: `.github/workflows/multi-ecosystem-release.yml`
- **Trigger**: Release published
- **Command**: `npm publish`
- **Status**: Live at https://www.npmjs.com/package/pmat-agent

#### ✅ Docker Hub
- **Workflow**: `.github/workflows/docker-publish.yml`
- **Trigger**: Release published + master push
- **Platforms**: linux/amd64, linux/arm64
- **Status**: Live at https://hub.docker.com/r/paiml/pmat

### Semi-Automated (One-Time Setup Required)
These distributions have automated package updates but require one-time manual submission to official repositories:

#### 🔄 Homebrew (macOS/Linux)
- **Workflow**: `.github/workflows/multi-ecosystem-release.yml`
- **Automation**: Formula auto-updated with SHA256
- **Manual Step**: Submit PR to homebrew-core (one-time)
- **Files**: `homebrew/pmat.rb`, `homebrew/SUBMIT_TO_CORE.md`
- **Post-Submission**: Fully automated forever

#### 🔄 Arch Linux AUR
- **Workflow**: `.github/workflows/multi-ecosystem-release.yml`  
- **Automation**: PKGBUILD auto-updated with SHA256
- **Manual Step**: Submit to AUR (one-time)
- **Files**: `aur/PKGBUILD`, `aur/.SRCINFO`, `aur/SUBMIT_TO_AUR.md`
- **Post-Submission**: Fully automated forever

#### 🔄 Chocolatey (Windows)
- **Workflow**: `.github/workflows/multi-ecosystem-release.yml`
- **Automation**: nuspec auto-updated with version
- **Manual Step**: Submit to community repository (one-time)
- **Files**: `chocolatey/pmat.nuspec`, `chocolatey/SUBMIT_TO_CHOCOLATEY.md`
- **Post-Submission**: Fully automated forever

#### 🔄 Debian/Ubuntu PPA
- **Workflow**: `.github/workflows/multi-ecosystem-release.yml`
- **Automation**: control/changelog auto-updated
- **Manual Step**: Create PPA and submit (one-time)
- **Files**: `debian/DEBIAN/control`, `debian/SUBMIT_TO_UBUNTU_PPA.md`
- **Post-Submission**: Fully automated forever

## 🚀 Release Process

### Current State (v2.12.0)
When you create a new release:

1. **✅ Automatic (Zero Action Required)**:
   - Crates.io publishes new version
   - npm publishes pmat-agent@new-version  
   - Docker Hub builds and publishes new tags
   - All package files are auto-updated in repository

2. **📋 Manual Actions (One-Time Setup)**:
   - Submit Homebrew PR to homebrew-core using `homebrew/SUBMIT_TO_CORE.md`
   - Submit AUR package using `aur/submit-to-aur.sh`
   - Submit Chocolatey package using `chocolatey/build-package.ps1 -Submit`
   - Create Ubuntu PPA using `debian/SUBMIT_TO_UBUNTU_PPA.md`

### Post-Setup (Future Releases)
After one-time manual submissions:

1. **✅ Automatic (Zero Action Required)**:
   - All 7 ecosystems update automatically
   - No manual intervention needed ever again
   - Complete hands-off distribution

## 📦 Installation Commands (Current)

### ✅ Live Now
```bash
# Rust ecosystem
cargo install pmat

# Node.js ecosystem  
npm install -g pmat-agent

# Docker (multi-arch)
docker run --rm paiml/pmat:latest pmat --version
```

### 🔄 After One-Time Submissions
```bash
# macOS/Linux package manager
brew install pmat

# Windows package manager
choco install pmat  

# Arch Linux
yay -S pmat

# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt install pmat
```

## 🔧 Maintenance Requirements

### Zero Maintenance Required
- **Crates.io**: Automated via `cargo publish`
- **npm**: Automated via GitHub Actions + NPM_TOKEN
- **Docker**: Automated via GitHub Actions + Docker credentials

### One-Time Setup (Then Zero Maintenance)
- **Homebrew**: Submit initial PR, then automated forever
- **AUR**: Submit initial package, then automated forever  
- **Chocolatey**: Submit initial package, then automated forever
- **Debian**: Create PPA, then automated forever

## 🎯 Success Metrics

### Distribution Reach (Target)
- **Rust Developers**: 100% coverage (crates.io + direct source)
- **Node.js Developers**: 100% coverage (npm global install)
- **macOS Developers**: 100% coverage (Homebrew - post submission)
- **Windows Developers**: 100% coverage (Chocolatey - post submission)  
- **Linux Developers**: 100% coverage (AUR + APT + Docker)
- **Enterprise**: 100% coverage (Docker + package managers)

### Automation Achievement  
- **Current**: 3/7 ecosystems fully automated (43%)
- **Post-Setup**: 7/7 ecosystems fully automated (100%)
- **Maintenance**: Zero ongoing effort required

## 🔄 GitHub Actions Workflows

### Primary Release Automation
- **`multi-ecosystem-release.yml`**: Updates all package files automatically
- **`docker-publish.yml`**: Multi-arch Docker builds and publishing
- **`publish-crates.yml`**: Crates.io publishing
- **`homebrew-update.yml`**: Homebrew formula maintenance (legacy - integrated into multi-ecosystem)

### Monitoring & Quality
- **`main.yml`**: CI/CD pipeline
- **`quality-gate-test.yml`**: Quality enforcement
- **`canonical-release.yml`**: Version management

## 📞 Support & Troubleshooting

### Automated Distributions
If crates.io, npm, or Docker publishing fails:
1. Check GitHub Actions logs
2. Verify secrets: `CARGO_REGISTRY_TOKEN`, `NPM_TOKEN`, `DOCKER_USERNAME`, `DOCKER_PASSWORD`
3. Workflows are self-healing for transient failures

### Manual Submissions  
Each ecosystem has comprehensive guides:
- Homebrew: `homebrew/SUBMIT_TO_CORE.md`
- AUR: `aur/SUBMIT_TO_AUR.md` 
- Chocolatey: `chocolatey/SUBMIT_TO_CHOCOLATEY.md`
- Debian: `debian/SUBMIT_TO_UBUNTU_PPA.md`

**Current Status**: 3/7 ecosystems live and automated. 4/7 ready for one-time manual submission to achieve 100% automated distribution coverage.
