Release Notes: v0.2.0¶

Release Date: 2026-04-25

Overview¶

PipelineConductor v0.2.0 introduces workflow compliance checking against reference repositories, local filesystem scanning, a GitHub Action for CI integration, and automated workflow remediation. This release also migrates the project to the PlexusOne organization.

Highlights¶

Workflow compliance checking - Check repositories against reference workflow patterns
Local filesystem collector - Scan local repositories without GitHub API
GitHub Action - Reusable action for compliance checks in CI pipelines
Workflow remediation - Generate missing workflows from templates
Dashboard generation - Dashforge integration for visual compliance dashboards
HTML/Markdown reports - New report formats for compliance check results

New Features¶

Compliance Checking¶

Check repository workflows against a reference repository:

# Check organization repos against reference
pipelineconductor check --orgs myorg --ref-repo plexusone/.github

# Check with strict mode (require exact reusable workflow matches)
pipelineconductor check --orgs myorg --ref-repo plexusone/.github --strict

# Output as HTML report
pipelineconductor check --orgs myorg --ref-repo plexusone/.github -f html -o report.html

Compliance levels:

Level	Description
`full`	All required workflows present (exact or equivalent)
`partial`	Some required workflows present
`none`	No required workflows found

Local Filesystem Collector¶

Scan repositories on local disk without GitHub API:

# Scan local directory
pipelineconductor check --local ~/projects --ref-repo plexusone/.github

# Filter by language
pipelineconductor check --local ~/go/src --languages Go

Supports automatic language detection for Go, TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Rust, and Crystal projects.

GitHub Action¶

New composite action for CI integration:

- name: Check Compliance
  uses: plexusone/pipelineconductor@v0.2.0
  with:
    ref-repo: 'plexusone/.github'
    orgs: 'myorg'
    format: 'markdown'

Workflow Remediation¶

Generate missing workflows from built-in templates:

# Dry-run to preview changes
pipelineconductor remediate --local ./myrepo --ref-repo plexusone/.github --dry-run

# Apply generated workflows
pipelineconductor apply --local ./myrepo

Built-in templates for:

Go CI (build, test, coverage)
Go Lint (golangci-lint)
Go SAST (CodeQL)
TypeScript CI
TypeScript Lint (ESLint)

New CLI Commands¶

Command	Description
`check`	Check workflow compliance against reference repository
`remediate`	Generate missing workflows from templates
`apply`	Apply remediation changes to repositories

Report Formats¶

New formats for compliance check results:

HTML - Styled report with summary tables and compliance indicators
Markdown - GitHub-flavored Markdown for PR comments

JSON Schema¶

Added JSON Schema validation for check results at schema/check_result.schema.json.

Dashboard Generation¶

Generate interactive Dashforge dashboards from compliance check results:

import "github.com/plexusone/pipelineconductor/internal/dashboard"

// Generate dashboard from check results
db := dashboard.GenerateComplianceDashboard(result, "https://example.com/data.json")

Dashboard includes:

Metric widgets - Total repos, compliant/partial/non-compliant counts, compliance rate
Bar chart - Compliance rate by language
Pie chart - Repository distribution by language
Tables - Non-compliant repos and all repos with pagination
