fix: run release-please on this repo

[gberenice]

Problem

release-please.yaml here is workflow_call-only — it exists for other repos to consume. Nothing in this repo ever called it, so release-please has never run and no release was cut when #4 merged.

Consumers like github-action-tf-test have the caller half; this repo only had the callee half.

Two consequences, both fixed:

1. No caller. Added self-release-please.yaml, triggering on push to main.
2. No GitHub Releases. v0.1.0–v0.3.0 existed only as lightweight git tags created by hand. Release-please reads the Releases API to find the last version, so it would have ignored those tags and restarted versioning at 1.0.0. I backfilled releases for all three tags, with v0.3.0 marked latest, so the next run proposes v0.4.0.

Self-repository syntax

The call uses $/ rather than ./:

uses: $/.github/workflows/release-please.yaml

GitHub shipped this in July 2026. It resolves to the exact running commit with no checkout, and unlike ./ it counts as pinning for policy enforcement — which matters for a repo whose whole purpose is publishing pinned workflows. zizmor's self-repository audit recommends it. The alternative, pinning to masterpointio/actions@<sha>, would need a bump on every single release.

Tradeoff worth flagging: actionlint 1.7.12 predates the syntax and rejects it, hence the scoped trunk-ignore. Requires runner 2.336.0+, which GitHub-hosted runners satisfy. If the first run fails, swapping $/ for ./ is a one-line fallback.

Follow-up

This repo also runs no CI on its own PRs — lint.yaml is likewise workflow_call-only and there's no .trunk config. Separate PR, so a first-time trunk run surfacing pre-existing findings doesn't block this release fix.

Testing

actionlint, zizmor --persona=pedantic, yamllint, and prettier pass locally (borrowing a trunk config, since this repo has none).
