https://github.com/typst-community/dev-builds/blob/main/.github/workflows/gh-pages.yaml triggered by publishing release deploys the wrong artifact.

At that time, in https://github.com/typst-community/dev-builds/actions/runs/19385417200/job/55472750894, the github-pages artifact includes https://github.com/typst-community/dev-builds/releases/tag/typst-main.2025-11-14.0da0165, but the deployed website does not.

$ gh run download --name github-pages
$ 7z x artifact.tar
$ jq .artifacts.typst[].name catalog.json
"typst-main.2025-11-14.0da0165"
"typst-main.2025-09-19.586b049"

$ curl -o deployed-catalog.json https://typst-community.github.io/dev-builds/catalog.json
$ jq .artifacts.typst[].name deployed-catalog.json
"typst-main.2025-09-19.586b049"

It has happened before and I thought it was caused by API delay and fixed it in 7d14b2f. Now it turns out that I was wrong.

Rerunning the job does not fix it, but dispatching a new job against the same commit on main fix it. I can't explain why.

Caused by actions/deploy-pages#383.

Debug

Look at the following three runs. The first two were triggered by pushing to main, and the last one was triggered by publishing a new release.
Their pages_build_version should be all different, but the last two are the same.
That's expected. pages_build_version is the commit SHA.
