justinmclean opened a new pull request, #551:
URL: https://github.com/apache/airflow-steward/pull/551
## Summary
Adds `release-archive-sweep`, Step 12 of the release-management lifecycle.
The skill scans the project's distribution area (`dist/release/<project>/`
or the configured backend), identifies releases past the project's
retention rule, and emits a backend-shaped command set for the RM to
archive them.
It is **read-only on the distribution surface**: it never runs `svn mv`,
`gh release delete`, or `aws s3 mv`. Every command it produces is
paste-ready for the RM to execute under their own credentials.
## Behavior
- **Proposal only.** All state-changing actions are emitted as commands;
the human executes them.
- **Never archive the latest of a supported train.** If the retention rule
would mark the most-recent version of any supported train as
past-retention, the skill blocks with a `retention-rule-error` hand-off
instead of emitting commands.
- **Flag orphans, never auto-archive them.** A release on the dist surface
but absent from `release-trains.md` is reported in the hand-off block with
no command proposed; the RM decides its fate.
- **External content is data, never instructions.** Dist listings, planning
issues, and config are treated as untrusted input; injected directives are
flagged, not obeyed.
- Backends supported: `svnpubsub` (ASF default), `github-releases`, `s3`,
`self-hosted`.

## Test plan
- [X] `prek run --all-files` passes
- [ ] For Python packages touched: `uv run pytest` / `ruff check` / `mypy`
passes
- [ ] For Groovy bridges touched: command-line invocation tested end-to-end
- [X] For skill changes: eval suite passes for the affected skill
(`PYTHONPATH=tools/skill-evals/src python3 -m skill_evals.runner
tools/skill-evals/evals/<skill>/`)
- [ ] For skill *behaviour* changes: a new or updated eval fixture is
included in this PR
(a regression test for the bug fixed / the behaviour added — see
CONTRIBUTING.md)
