# Release Workflow GitHub CLI Fix ## Date: January 21, 2025 ## Issue The GitHub release creation step was failing with: `Error: Resource not accessible by integration` This was caused by: 1. Using the deprecated `actions/create-release@v1` action 2. Missing permissions for the `GITHUB_TOKEN` to create releases ## Solution Updated the release workflow to use GitHub CLI (`gh`) instead of the deprecated action. ### Changes Made 1. **Added permissions** to the `create-release` job: ```yaml permissions: contents: write # Grant permission to create releases ``` 2. **Replaced deprecated action** with GitHub CLI: - Removed: `actions/create-release@v1` - Added: GitHub CLI commands using `gh release create` 3. **Fixed PyPI package name** in release notes: - Changed from: `pip install mcp-debugger` - Changed to: `pip install debug-mcp-server-launcher` ### Benefits of GitHub CLI Approach - **Native to GitHub**: Pre-installed on all GitHub Actions runners - **No setup required**: Automatically authenticated with `GITHUB_TOKEN` - **Actively maintained**: Unlike the deprecated create-release action - **Better error handling**: Clear error messages - **More flexible**: Full control over release creation options ### How It Works 1. Creates a `release_notes.md` file with the formatted release body 2. Detects if the version is a prerelease (contains `-beta` or `-alpha`) 3. Uses `gh release create` with appropriate flags 4. Automatically uses the `GITHUB_TOKEN` for authentication This approach is more reliable and future-proof than using third-party or deprecated actions.
