Diagnose "I deployed a new Cloud Run / Docker image but a bunch of recently merged fixes regressed in production." Use when: (1) the deploy script does `gcloud builds submit ... "${SCRIPT_DIR}"` or `docker build <dir>` (build context = local filesystem, NOT a git ref), (2) the user has many git worktrees / multiple checkouts of the same repo, (3) the user reports "redeployed but the fix from PR #X isn't live" or "lots of fixes regressed after my deploy", (4) the deployed revision created at…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Deploy from a stale worktree silently rolls back merged fixes

## Problem

The user merged a PR (or many PRs), redeployed the serving service, and
reports the fix isn't live — sometimes "a lot of fixes regressed". The
deployed image is brand new (recent timestamp, latest revision) and the
deploy succeeded green. The diff between code and what's deployed is
*not* a baking issue, *not* a browser cache issue — the **image itself
contains old code**.

This happens when the deploy script's build context is the local
filesystem (`gcloud builds submit ... "${LOCAL_DIR}"`,
`docker build <dir>`, `gcloud run deploy --source <dir>`, `kaniko
--context dir://...`) and the user runs it from a stale checkout. With
many git worktrees, it is easy to be sitting in `worktrees/foo/` 21
commits behind `main` and not notice — the deploy ships whatever is on
disk.

## Trigger conditions

All of these are typical:

1. The repo has a deploy script that uses one of:
   - `gcloud builds submit --tag=... "${SCRIPT_DIR}"` (no commit SHA tag)
   - `docker build -t ... <local-dir>` then push
   - `gcloud run deploy --source <local-dir>`
2. The user has multiple checkouts of the same repo (worktrees,

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add wan-huiyan/agent-traffic-control/deploy-from-stale-worktree-silent-rollback@sha256:f987839313f96e10

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
