Implementation Checklist - Bot Development Complete ✅

Phase 1: Foundation (Shared Types) ✅

• Updated shared/src/types.ts with extended fields

  • Added updateUrl (new) and update_json (deprecated) support
  • Added patchedVersions for manual patching
  • Added GeneratedMeta, LatestVersionInfo, ProcessResult, PluginError

• Regenerated meta.schema.json from TypeScript types

  • Verified schema generation script works
  • Schema available at shared/schemas/meta.schema.json

Phase 2: Data Loading ✅

• Implemented loadPluginMeta() (bot/src/loaders/meta.ts)

  • Reads and validates meta.json
  • Checks ID matches directory name
  • Validates tags against enum
  • Throws descriptive errors

• Implemented loadUpdateJson() (bot/src/loaders/update-json.ts)

  • Fetches remote update.json
  • Parses Zotero manifest format
  • Handles version compatibility (Zotero 7+ and Zotero 6)
  • Returns strongly-typed Version array

Phase 3: Utilities ✅

• Implemented fetchData() (bot/src/utils/http.ts)

  • Axios HTTP client
  • Auto-detects GitHub domains
  • Applies Bearer token to GitHub URLs
  • 10-second timeout for normal requests

• Implemented XPI utilities (bot/src/utils/xpi.ts)

  • downloadXpi() with 30-second timeout
  • extractXpiInfo() for manifest.json parsing
  • verifyXpi() for ID validation
  • Graceful error handling

• Implemented detectChangedPlugins() (bot/src/utils/git.ts)

  • Git diff against origin/main
  • Extracts plugin directory changes
  • Error recovery

Phase 4: Version Management ✅

• Implemented mergeVersions() (bot/src/merger.ts)

  • Combines remote + patched versions
  • Patched versions override remote
  • Semantic version sorting (with fallback)
  • Maintains version fidelity

• Implemented extractCompatibility() (bot/src/merger.ts)

  • Extracts min/max Zotero versions
  • Handles semver and non-semver versions
  • Graceful fallback to string comparison

Phase 5: Core Processing ✅

• Implemented processPlugin() (bot/src/processor.ts)

  • Complete 7-step pipeline
  • Detailed consola logging
  • Error tracking with stage identification
  • Generates meta.generated.json
  • Generates latest.json
  • Updates .cache.json

• Implemented processPlugins() (bot/src/processor.ts)

  • Batch processing with error collection
  • Individual error tracking
  • Returns ProcessResult

Phase 6: CLI Interface ✅

• Implemented Commander CLI (bot/src/cli.ts)

  • build [plugins...] command
  • check [plugins...] command
  • --help option
  • --version option
  • Default command behavior

• Implemented build orchestration (bot/src/build.ts)

  • buildPlugins() function
  • checkPlugins() function
  • Auto-discovery of all plugins
  • Proper exit codes

Phase 7: GitHub Integration ✅

• Implemented GitHub Reporter (bot/src/github-reporter.ts)

  • commentOnPR() via Octokit
  • reportToIssue() creation/update
  • Respects environment variables
  • Graceful fallback

• Implemented unified reporting (bot/src/report.ts)

  • Console output
  • GitHub PR comments
  • GitHub issue creation
  • Environment-aware routing

Quality Assurance ✅

• Linting

  • All ESLint errors resolved
  • Import ordering correct
  • No unused imports/variables
  • Code style consistent

• Type Safety

  • No TypeScript errors
  • All external data typed
  • Proper error types

• Testing

  • CLI help works (--help, --version)
  • Build command executes
  • Plugin processing successful
  • Output files generated correctly
  • Compatibility detection working

• Dependencies

  • All required packages installed
  • Version compatibility checked
  • No missing imports
