Coordinated release prep for v0.18.0-rc.1, the first Guardian release on the Miden 0.17 release candidates (#485): miden-protocol / miden-standards 0.17.0-rc.7, miden-client 0.17.0-rc.3, @miden-sdk/miden-sdk 0.17.0-rc.3.

Changes

  • Versions. Workspace, internal crate pins and the four npm packages move to 0.18.0-rc.1. The internal TypeScript range is ^0.18.0-rc.1, as on the 0.17.0-rc line. Cargo.lock and packages/package-lock.json change version metadata only, and the internal packages stay workspace links.
  • New dev dependency bumped. @openzeppelin/miden-multisig-client depends on @openzeppelin/guardian-operator-client for the qualification suite (feat(qualification): black-box end-to-end qualification suite #478). Left at ^0.17.0, npm resolved the published 0.17.0 tarball instead of the workspace package, so the range moves too.
  • OpenAPI. The four docs/openapi*.json files are regenerated with gen-openapi; only info.version changes.
  • Example lockfiles. Refreshed for the new versions of the linked packages.
  • Docs.
    • The root README's Miden baseline note named the stable 0.16 line; it now names the 0.17 rc pins.
    • The MIDEN_COMPATIBILITY.md matrix row is 0.18.0-rc.1, with a note that the release candidates publish under the npm rc dist-tag.
    • Both package READMEs mark 0.18.x as pre-release.
    • The install snippets in docs/MULTISIG_SDK.md and the TypeScript README pin 0.18.0-rc.1 explicitly, so readers do not get the latest (Miden 0.16) package.

Verification

Check Result
guardian-shared / guardian-client / miden-confidential-contracts / miden-multisig-client tests 44 / 53 / 32 / 248 pass
TypeScript build and tests (guardian-client / guardian-evm-client / miden-multisig-client / guardian-operator-client) 92 / 10 / 706 / 106 pass
cargo publish --dry-run --locked (4 crates) all verify
npm publish --dry-run --tag rc (4 packages) all succeed
gen-openapi --check docs, cargo fmt --check clean

The dry run warns about the yanked wnaf / chacha20 lockfile entries, which predate this release and are not blockers.

After merge

Cut a draft GitHub Release v0.18.0-rc.1 (prerelease), review it, then publish it to trigger the crates, npm and Docker workflows.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Release

    • Updated the Rust and TypeScript packages to version 0.18.0-rc.1.
  • Documentation

    • Updated installation instructions to pin the release candidate version.
    • Clarified that this release targets Miden 0.17 release candidates. Miden 0.16 accounts, local stores, and networks are not compatible.
    • Explained that unversioned npm installs may still resolve to the Miden 0.16-compatible package line.

<excerpt>### Pre-releases ... Version requirements exclude pre-release versions, such as `1.0.0-alpha`, unless specifically asked for. For example, if `1.0.0-alpha` of package `foo` is published, then a requirement of `foo = &quot;1.0&quot;` will not match, and will return an error. The pre-release must be specified, such as `foo = &quot;1.0.0-alpha&quot;`. Similarly `cargo install` will avoid pre-releases unless explicitly asked to install one. ... Cargo allows “newer” pre-releases to be used automatically. For example, if `1.0.0-beta` is published, then a requirement `foo = &quot;1.0.0-alpha&quot;` will allow updating to the `beta` version. Note that this only works on the same release version, `foo = &quot;1.0.0-alpha&quot;` will not allow updating to `foo = &quot;1.0.1-alpha&quot;` or `foo = &quot;1.0.1-beta&quot;`. ... Cargo will also upgrade automatically to semver-compatible released versions from prereleases. The requirement `foo = &quot;1.0.0-alpha&quot;` will allow updating to `foo = &quot;1.0.0&quot;` as well as `foo = &quot;1.2.0&quot;`. ... Beware that pre-release versions can be unstable, and as such care should be taken when using them. Some projects may choose to publish breaking changes between pre-release versions. It is recommended to not use pre-release dependencies in a library if your library is not also a pre-release. Care should also be taken when updating your `Cargo.lock`, and be prepared if a pre-release update causes issues.</excerpt>

Pin the Rust crate to the documented release candidate.

Cargo treats "0.18.0-rc.1" as a caret requirement. It can therefore select the stable 0.18.0 release. This removes the guarantee that the example uses the documented miden-multisig-client and miden-client release pair. Use an exact requirement.

Proposed fix
-miden-multisig-client = "0.18.0-rc.1"
+miden-multisig-client = "=0.18.0-rc.1"
