fix: remove make-immutable job from release workflow#4455
Merged
Conversation
The `gh release edit --make-immutable` flag does not exist in any current gh CLI version, causing the make-immutable job to fail on every release. The GitHub API also does not yet support setting immutable via REST or GraphQL. Remove the job until the feature is publicly available.

Pull request overview
Removes the failing “make release immutable” step from the repository’s Agentic Workflows-based release pipeline, since gh release edit --make-immutable isn’t supported by the gh CLI and the GitHub APIs don’t currently provide an alternative.
Changes:
- Removed the
make-immutablejob from the release workflow definition. - Updated the workflow description and agent NOTE to remove immutability references.
- Regenerated the compiled workflow lock file to reflect the workflow source changes.
