📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughChangesSite Mirror Publishing
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to This workflow adds automated cross-repository publishing, but the current version grants an insufficiently constrained App token and uses mutable action references, increasing the risk of unauthorized scope or unexpected action changes. These bounded security issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

Pin both actions to full commit SHAs.
.github/workflows/site-mirror.yml uses mutable v4 and v2 tags for workflow actions. Replace both references with full commit SHAs to prevent action code from changing without a repository change.

Restrict the App token to repository contents write access.
Add permission-contents: write. The job uses this token for git push, and repositories: pythinker-site does not restrict the token’s permissions. .github/workflows/release.yml:333-339 uses this least-privilege pattern.

Superseded: apps/site is moving out of this repo entirely rather than being mirrored. PyModel/pythinker-site already holds its full history. |

No issue — infrastructure change requested directly: the CDN site should build from a repository that contains only the site.
Problem
Dokploy builds
code.pythinker.comfromapps/site/Dockerfileinside this monorepo, so every unrelated push tomainis a candidate build context and the deploy app is coupled to the whole tree.What changed
A one-way mirror. On any push to
maintouchingapps/site/**,git subtree split --prefix=apps/siteis force-pushed toPyModel/pythinker-site, which Dokploy will build instead. This repo stays the only source of truth — commits made in the mirror are overwritten on the next push.The push uses a
pythinker-release-botinstallation token scoped topythinker-siteonly, the same shaperelease.ymluses for the Homebrew tap. Deploy keys are disabled org-wide on PyModel, so an App token is the only available path, and no new secret is needed:vars.RELEASE_BOT_APP_IDandsecrets.RELEASE_BOT_PRIVATE_KEYalready exist.Verified by running the split locally and priming the mirror:
PyModel/pythinker-site@mainnow holds the 14-commit history ofapps/sitewithDockerfile,Caddyfile, andvite.config.jsat its root. That run also exposed the\rprogress countergit subtree splitwrites to stdout, which silently corrupts the push refspec — the workflow strips it.Follow-up, not in this PR: repoint the Dokploy app and its deploy webhook at
pythinker-site, and update the stale comment atrelease.yml:207.Checklist
