# CI Pipeline
The CI runs on every push to `main` and every pull request. It uses smart scoping to skip expensive jobs when only unrelated areas changed.
## Job Overview
| Job | Purpose | When it runs |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- |
| `docs-scope` | Detect docs-only changes | Always |
| `changed-scope` | Detect which areas changed (node/macos/android/windows) | Non-doc changes |
| `check` | TypeScript types, lint, format | Non-docs, node changes |
| `check-docs` | Markdown lint + broken link check | Docs changed |
| `secrets` | Detect leaked secrets | Always |
| `build-artifacts` | Build dist once, share with `release-check` | Pushes to `main`, node changes |
| `release-check` | Validate npm pack contents | Pushes to `main` after build |
| `checks` | Node tests + protocol check on PRs; Bun compat on push | Non-docs, node changes |
| `compat-node22` | Minimum supported Node runtime compatibility | Pushes to `main`, node changes |
| `checks-windows` | Windows-specific tests | Non-docs, windows-relevant changes |
| `macos` | Swift lint/build/test + TS tests | PRs with macos changes |
| `android` | Gradle build + tests | Non-docs, android changes |
## Fail-Fast Order
Jobs are ordered so cheap checks fail before expensive ones run:
1. `docs-scope` + `changed-scope` + `check` + `secrets` (parallel, cheap gates first)
2. PRs: `checks` (Linux Node test split into 2 shards), `checks-windows`, `macos`, `android`
3. Pushes to `main`: `build-artifacts` + `release-check` + Bun compat + `compat-node22`
Scope logic lives in `scripts/ci-changed-scope.mjs` and is covered by unit tests in `src/scripts/ci-changed-scope.test.ts`.
## Runners
| Runner | Jobs |
| -------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------ |
| `blacksmith-16vcpu-ubuntu-2404` | Most Linux jobs, including scope detection |
| `blacksmith-32vcpu-windows-2025` | `checks-windows` |
| `macos-latest` | `macos`, `ios` |
## Local Equivalents
```bash
pnpm check # types + lint + format
pnpm test # vitest tests
pnpm check:docs # docs format + lint + broken links
pnpm release:check # validate npm pack
```
