adityamparikh opened a new pull request, #219:
URL: https://github.com/apache/solr-mcp/pull/219
## Summary
`dev-docs/ATR_TESTING_GUIDE.md` presented
`atr-release.yml`/`atr-release-test.yml`
as a near-term testing checklist ("Dry Run Testing (Recommended First Step)",
"Real ATR Testing (After Onboarding)"), which reads as the current release
path. It isn't: that GitHub Actions automation is explicitly blocked
(`FUTURE USE ONLY — Blocked` in both workflow files) pending automated
release signing and ATR onboarding, and nothing has exercised it against a
real release.
The actual current process is manual, ATR-web-UI-based, and documented in
the still-open [PR #157](https://github.com/apache/solr-mcp/pull/157)
("Release Process"), which adds `dev-docs/release-process.md`. That file
does not exist on `main` yet, so this PR does not create or duplicate it —
it links to PR #157 instead.
## What changed
Restructured the guide into two clearly separated parts:
- **Part A — the real process today**: points to PR #157 as the
authoritative source, summarizes its current scope (release branch prep,
candidate tag, source tarball + JAR signing/staging, the
`[email protected]` vote with 72-hour minimum, and publish/announce to
`downloads.apache.org/solr/mcp/<version>/`), and is explicit that PR #157
is still open/under review (Jan's 2026-07-29 changes-requested review
predates the source-tarball and vote/publish sections) and still carries
Eric's open `**ERIC FIND THIS OUT**` TODO about whether ATR's
Finish/Publish action sends the release announcement itself. Neither of
those is resolved by this PR.
- **Part B — the future automation goal**: keeps the existing prerequisites
table, testing approaches, debugging tips, and implementation steps for
`atr-release.yml`/`atr-release-test.yml`, but reframes them as a blocked
future goal rather than a checklist to run now.
## Non-blocking doc hygiene
This is a documentation-only change. It does not touch PR #157, Eric's
fork branch, `release-publish.yml`, or any workflow/build file.
## Test plan
- [x] `./gradlew spotlessCheck` passes
- [x] Only `dev-docs/ATR_TESTING_GUIDE.md` is modified (`git diff --stat`)
