fix: correct smoke test command in vscode-publish workflow

[ajitpratap0]

Summary

• Fix smoke test: gosqlx version → gosqlx --version (CLI uses flag, not subcommand)
• Add fail-fast: false so one platform failure doesn't cancel all other builds

Context

The v1.10.1 publish workflow failed because the smoke test used the wrong command syntax.

Review Summary

This is a well-executed fix for the VSCode extension publishing workflow. The changes address a genuine workflow failure and implement best practices for CI/CD resilience.

✅ Code Quality & Best Practices

Excellent adherence to GitHub Actions best practices:

• Correct CLI syntax: The fix from gosqlx version → gosqlx --version follows standard POSIX conventions
• Robust CI strategy: Adding fail-fast: false prevents cascade failures across the 5-platform matrix
• Appropriate smoke testing: Only runs smoke test on linux-x64 target for efficiency
• Clear documentation: Workflow includes comprehensive comments explaining purpose and requirements

✅ Bug Fixes & Issues Resolved

Root cause correctly identified and fixed:

• The original workflow failed because CLI tools typically use flags (--version) not subcommands (version)
• The fix aligns with standard conventions used by tools like npm --version, go version, etc.
• Prevents single platform failures from blocking entire release pipeline

✅ Performance Considerations

Optimized execution strategy:

• Smoke test limited to one platform (linux-x64) reduces unnecessary compute
• Parallel matrix execution maintained for all 5 platforms (linux-x64/arm64, darwin-x64/arm64, win32-x64)
• Appropriate timeouts: 15min for builds, 10min for publishing

✅ Security Assessment

Secure workflow implementation:

• Minimal contents: read permissions (line 16)
• Secret verification before publishing (lines 123-130)
• No hardcoded credentials or sensitive data exposure
• Binary checksum generation for integrity verification (lines 63-65)

✅ Workflow Robustness

Enhanced reliability:

• fail-fast: false ensures all platforms build independently
• Proper error handling for version validation (lines 85-89)
• Artifact upload/download pattern correctly implemented
• Appropriate use of conditional execution (if: matrix.target == 'linux-x64')

Specific Technical Assessment

Lines 24 & 71 - The Core Fixes:

strategy:
  fail-fast: false  # ✅ Excellent addition for release stability
  
# And later:
./vscode-extension/bin/${{ matrix.binary }} --version  # ✅ Correct CLI syntax

Workflow Architecture - Line 1-139:

• Proper separation of concerns: Build job vs. Publish job
• Efficient artifact management: Platform-specific VSIXs uploaded then merged
• Conditional execution: Smoke test only on one representative platform

Minor Observation:

The Go version is pinned to 1.24 (line 52), which aligns with the project's requirement for Go 1.23+ mentioned in CLAUDE.md.

Recommendation: APPROVED ✅

This PR demonstrates excellent troubleshooting and implements the fix with production-grade quality. The changes are:

• Minimal and targeted (only 2 lines changed)
• Well-documented in commit message and PR description
• Follows best practices for both CLI design and CI/CD workflows
• Improves system resilience without introducing risk

The fix successfully resolves the v1.10.1 publish failure and prevents similar issues in future releases.
