This PR fixes two critical issues in the base-installer-cd.yml workflow that were preventing proper file uploads to GitHub releases and masking upload failures.

Issues Fixed

1. Missing fail_on_unmatched_files Parameter

The GitHub release action was missing the fail_on_unmatched_files: true parameter, which meant the workflow would silently continue even when files failed to upload. This made it difficult to detect when releases were incomplete.

2. Broken File Upload References

The release step was referencing steps.prepare_paths.outputs for file paths, but no step with the ID prepare_paths existed in the workflow. This caused the file upload to fail silently, resulting in empty releases.

Changes Made

• Added fail_on_unmatched_files: true to the GitHub release action to ensure builds fail when files cannot be found
• Added missing step ID compress_artifacts to the "Compress Build Artifacts" step
• Fixed file path references from steps.prepare_paths.outputs to steps.compress_artifacts.outputs

Before vs After

Before:

- name: Compress Build Artifacts
  if: ${{ inputs.make_release == 'true' }}
  # Missing ID, outputs not accessible

- name: Create Release and Upload artifacts
  uses: softprops/action-gh-release@...
  with:
    files: |
      ${{ steps.prepare_paths.outputs.build_dir_zip }}  # ❌ Step doesn't exist
      ${{ steps.prepare_paths.outputs.proc_runner_zip }} # ❌ Step doesn't exist
    # Missing fail_on_unmatched_files parameter

After:

- name: Compress Build Artifacts
  id: compress_artifacts  # ✅ Added step ID
  if: ${{ inputs.make_release == 'true' }}

- name: Create Release and Upload artifacts
  uses: softprops/action-gh-release@...
  with:
    fail_on_unmatched_files: true  # ✅ Added fail parameter
    files: |
      ${{ steps.compress_artifacts.outputs.build_dir_zip }}  # ✅ Correct reference
      ${{ steps.compress_artifacts.outputs.proc_runner_zip }} # ✅ Correct reference

Testing

• ✅ YAML syntax validation passes
• ✅ All step references are validated as correct
• ✅ Workflow structure maintains compatibility with existing triggers and conditions

This ensures that releases will now properly include the BuildDir.zip and ProcRunner.zip artifacts, and the build will fail early if these files cannot be found rather than creating incomplete releases.
