Design: A Modernized, Declarative Rust Build and Release Pipeline

1. System Goals

This document outlines a unified, modern design for a reusable Rust build and release pipeline, intended for implementation within the shared-actions repository and consumption by projects such as netsuke. The system's primary goal is to replace the previous architecture, which relied on imperative Python scripts, with a declarative, tool-centric workflow.

2. High-Level Architecture: Configuration as Code

The new architecture embraces the principle of "Configuration as Code". The responsibility for how to build and package software is delegated to specialized tools, while the developer's intent—what to build—is captured in declarative configuration files.

This pipeline is composed of three core, best-in-class tools:

  1. cross: A zero-setup cross-compilation tool for Rust. It transparently manages containerized build environments (via Docker or Podman) to provide the correct C toolchains, linkers, and system libraries for any given target triple.
  2. clap_mangen: A utility for generating UNIX manual pages directly from a clap-based CLI definition. It is integrated into the build process via a build.rs script to ensure documentation is always synchronized with the application's interface.
  3. GoReleaser: A powerful, multi-format release automation tool. It reads a single .goreleaser.yaml file to create archives (.tar.gz), Linux packages (.deb, .rpm), and other formats, as well as checksums and GitHub Releases.

Any necessary "glue" logic will be implemented in self-contained Python scripts that use uv and PEP 723 to manage their dependencies, removing the need for actions/setup-python in consuming workflows.

The workflow proceeds in two distinct stages:

  1. Build Stage: A parallelized matrix job that uses cross to compile the Rust binary and its associated man page for each target platform. The resulting artifacts are uploaded for the next stage.
  2. Release Stage: A single job that downloads all build artifacts, then orchestrates GoReleaser to package them into archives and distribution formats before creating a GitHub Release.

3. Detailed Component Design for Implementers

3.1 Build Stage: Cross-Compilation and Man Page Generation

The build stage is responsible for producing compiled binaries and
