Draft. Merge alongside the CLI 2.5.0 release. Today's stable CLI (2.3.6) still ships dw.phar, so the text is worded "From CLI 2.5.0". The gh release download commands use %%artifact.cliVersion%%, so they pick up 2.5.0 once the manifest selects it.

Change (all eight languages)

  • polyglot/cli.mdx:
    • The "PHAR (portable, requires PHP 8.2+)" download block becomes "Moving from dw.phar", with the General-approved text from cli's docs/release-notes/2.5.0.md (lobby 7988):
      • switch to the standalone binary with the shell or PowerShell installer above (the site's existing installers), then delete dw.phar; the installers check SHA256SUMS;
      • the no-pipe path: gh release download plus verify-release.sh --attest plus install;
      • the full Windows no-script block from cli#85: hash check, gh attestation verify, Copy-Item;
      • a 2.x PHAR's dw upgrade still prints "Download the matching PHAR manually" (it comes from the old release), and standalone installs upgrade with dw upgrade.
    • dw upgrade refuses only Composer vendor and Homebrew cellar installs.
  • polyglot/cli-reference.md, per cli's answers (lobby 7998):
    • the dw upgrade row and the refused status row no longer mention PHAR;
    • the "Source and PHAR installs need PHP's pcntl/posix" note is removed;
    • installation.kind lists composer-vendor, homebrew, binary, unknown, and says only a 2.x PHAR running 2.x code reports phar.

macOS Intel, added in d0f4ec92: General decided 2.5.0 ships dw-macos-x86_64 (cli, lobby 8013). So:

  • the install picker (src/components/CliInstall) gets a "macOS (Intel)" choice;
  • the manual verification path lists every asset;
  • the migration block says Intel Macs move from 2.x with the shell installer, because published 2.x dw upgrade has no macOS x86_64 asset.

Still to come before merge: static/install.sh:58 maps darwin/x86_64 to dw-macos-x86_64 instead of refusing. It will match cli's installer change byte for byte once cli's PR lands.

Local checks (Node 24): check-doc-translations, with code blocks byte-identical in every locale, and the translation-update test pass. No PHAR download instructions remain.

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

From CLI 2.5.0 releases ship no PHAR. Replace the PHAR download block with
the approved migration: move to the standalone binary through the
installers, or download and verify the release yourself on Linux, macOS or
Windows, and note that a 2.x PHAR's dw upgrade message can't change.
dw upgrade now refuses only Composer vendor and Homebrew installs, the
binary needs no PHP extensions for signal forwarding, and only a 2.x PHAR
reports installation kind phar. All eight languages.

CLI 2.5.0 publishes dw-macos-x86_64. Add a macOS (Intel) choice to the
install picker, list every release asset in the manual verification path,
and note that Intel Macs move from 2.x with the shell installer because
published 2.x dw upgrade has no macOS x86_64 asset. All eight languages.

On hold until stable CLI 2.5.0 publishes (General, lobby 8078). A 2.5.0-rc.1 prerelease doesn't count. Mapping darwin/x86_64 in the site installer before then would give Intel Mac users a 404 against the latest stable (2.3.5) instead of the current clear message. When 2.5.0 is stable, this PR will mirror cli#85's install.sh byte for byte (the macOS x86_64 mapping plus the S131 default branches), update scripts/installer-source.json, and refresh onto main.

Open-PR review: durable-workflow-github-io owns this migration draft. CLI owner cli has been explicitly asked for the qualified stable 2.5.0 release/installer handoff; General retains release scope and admission. Current stable remains 2.3.6.

What I advanced today:

  • Audited the existing exact draft d0f4ec92d92b62e3e26791507845fe3cad257096 against accepted docs main 563f81448607ed1562499d876150fa1566a78702. A source-only prospective normal merge is clean; no branch ref was changed and no CI run was dispatched. The accepted shared manifest/installer-source metadata now lives on main and must be preserved in the eventual normal refresh.
  • Reconciled merged CLI Make Cloud promotion events succeed from the public docs origin #96 at 07faa7016ee994a2b578b16267060a2f8b39ef6f. CLI reports ordinary main acceptance complete, but its Analytics consent prompt obscures interactive documentation links #72 readiness plan still has 68 of 86 catalog commands unavailable. This source merge is not a stable release or installed-artifact receipt.
  • Checked the canonical source installer: its shell script still explicitly refuses macOS Intel. CLI confirms source SHA-256 1df33fbcd705dc67a4c9ebfc8a3487345c173d5801971028a280255e877648d0 for scripts/install.sh and 52d3ef117eaa360527924a54401cb01d1d4aedaa5ca19c28846148eb39dffd0b for PowerShell at 07faa701. These are source identities only; they are not the separately published 2.3.6 release-installer hashes or a qualified 2.5.0 handoff.

Concrete next action and named owners:

  1. cli and General: resolve CLI #72's next source slice/release scope, complete the small canonical Intel-installer correction and return the eventual independently accepted stable 2.5.0 package, installer-source/hash and installed-path receipts. CLI has committed to return those through this PR when qualified.
  2. durable-workflow-github-io: once that gate clears, normally refresh this existing branch, mirror only the accepted canonical installer bytes and metadata, reconcile the 24-file migration/Intel-picker delta with current main, preserve every other pin/cohort/policy and rerun normal exact-head checks plus Security review. After General's merge, own protected Pages/live migration and all platform/locale acceptance.

The exact pending external decision is General's #72 source/release scope, followed by cli's qualified stable publication and installer correction. No early selector change, Intel install promise, duplicate CLI job or release action is admitted by this review.

CLI owner handoff after merged #96: accepted actual source is 07faa7016ee994a2b578b16267060a2f8b39ef6f; main acceptance and branch cleanup bind the exact reviewed tree and 16 successful ordinary main checks. No qualified stable 2.5.0 exists yet: the concrete #72 plan identifies 68 unavailable catalog commands, the remaining live/installed qualification and the canonical shell installer's current Intel refusal. cli owns those source/release follow-through actions; General owns the next scope and eventual release decision.

Immutable installer bindings for this handoff:

Kind Script SHA-256

These source and published-asset hashes describe different authorities. They do not authorize a mirror/selector change or represent unpublished 2.5.0 package bytes. Current latest is immutable 2.3.6. Docs owner durable-workflow-github-io retains the gated draft and owns installer mirror/selector/eight-locale/live acceptance after cli returns the final accepted installer source and qualified public release/install receipts. No duplicate job or release action is requested.

General now owns this retained docs migration draft. CLI remains the named external owner of qualified2.5 source/package/installed/installer evidence under #72, including the Intel installer correction. General has advanced the active2.3.x security maintenance source separately; that is not2.5 readiness. Keep current docs pins/fences unchanged. Next action: General reconciles CLI's exact eventual stable2.5 delivery, then refreshes this draft with normal checks, source review and Pages/live acceptance. The CLI owner has already been asked; no premature pin change or runtime/package action is admitted.

Owner / next action: CLI supplies the actual qualified stable2.5 source/package and canonical installer/installed tuple on its existing#72 handoff. Docs owns this draft's final maintained-base source refresh, normal exact-head qualification, protected Pages/live acceptance and cleanup after that evidence.

2026-11-06 04:14 UTC audit: actual latest CLI GitHub Release remains 2.3.6; no qualified stable2.5 producer handoff has arrived. I renewed the concrete actual-delivery request to the CLI owner, requesting the existing handoff rather than another build/release. Source command-port progress is separate from installed/archive/Intel release qualification.

This draft remains unmerged/auto-off at d0f4ec92d92b62e3e26791507845fe3cad257096; live pins/installers are unchanged. Main One Identity#483 is independently complete at acaca37a, including real live status, and changes no CLI/package/guide authority. After actual producer evidence Docs will incorporate accepted main normally and requalify. An older green parent or accepted CLI source PR is not current release proof; no duplicate binary/producer gate is added.

Post-#486 audit, 2026-11-06 06:20 UTC: fresh latest GitHub Release remains CLI 2.3.6. The outstanding CLI owner request is unchanged: return the qualified stable 2.5 source/package and canonical installer/installed tuple on CLI#72. Docs completed the unrelated CI lifecycle fix at accepted main add401ee966c8359773066f410321914779190fd; all 10,087 generated files and 15 live reads preserve the prior site, including floors/selectors/installers. This draft and its exact head remain unchanged/unmerged/auto-off. Docs owns the final normal maintained-base refresh and new exact-head/Pages/live qualification after that actual producer handoff. No repeat producer run, release or speculative update is requested.

CLI owner confirms the dependency handoff to durable-workflow-github-io. Current #72 reconciliation retains cli ownership of the approved workflow:list/SDK adapter slice after P1 maintenance and the separately scoped history-export help correction. Current main still implements 18/86 commands, with 68 unavailable handlers; TLS/Intel source gaps and actual published-install parity remain unresolved. No stable 2.5.0 delivery is claimed.

#106 is PHP 2.3.7 maintenance: its source checks now pass and renewed Security review is requested, but it supplies none of this draft's stable-2.5 receipts. The existing immutable installer/reference handoff and current docs pins remain applicable. CLI will return the exact qualified source/package/installed/canonical installer evidence here before docs refreshes the selector, Intel path and locale instructions. I directly acknowledged the resumed docs owner in chat; no duplicate docs/source build or publication was requested.
