Summary

Implements #557: tag name validation, opening the CC4xx rule range with CC401. GitHub gates tag name patterns behind Enterprise-plan metadata restrictions; this brings the same policy to every plan and forge, closing the last ref-naming gap next to the branch rules.

How it works

  • --tag / -t validates every tag pointing at the revision under test (--rev, or HEAD). A commit with no tag is a skip, not a failure — the rule validates how tags are named, and the absence of one is not a naming violation.
  • Pattern sources, in the usual precedence: --tag-regex > CCHK_TAG_REGEX > [tag] regex in TOML > default. The default accepts SemVer with an optional leading v (v1.2.3 or 1.2.3, pre-release and build-metadata suffixes included). An empty pattern deliberately disables the match.
  • Piped input names tags directly, one per line. When the lines are the four-field refs a pre-push hook receives, the tags under push are extracted from refs/tags/* instead — so the new check-tag pre-commit hook (stages: [pre-push]) validates exactly what a push carries. Tag deletions are exempt: they remove a name rather than creating one.
  • GitHub Actions tag builds: when a shallow checkout doesn't carry the tag ref, GITHUB_REF_NAME (guarded by GITHUB_REF_TYPE=tag) stands in.
  • validate_tag() joins the public Python API; JSON output carries rule_id: CC401 and the docs URL like every other rule.

Notes for release

  • The rules reference on commit-check.com needs a CC401 section when this ships — the site's docs-sync suite will flag it against the released version, and docs_url already points at https://commit-check.com/rules/#cc401.
  • README pins stay at v2.15.1 per AGENTS.md (they track the latest published release; the release PR bumps them). The check-tag snippet becomes installable once the release containing the hook exists.

Testing

  • 34 new tests across engine (validator incl. pre-push parsing), rule_builder (default/custom/empty regex, default-regex accept/reject matrix), util (get_tags_at incl. env fallback precedence), api, main (flag parsing, help), config_merger (env + defaults)
  • Full suite: 630 passed; the one failure (test_load_config_file_permission_error) is a sandbox artifact — this environment runs as root, which ignores chmod 000, and it fails identically on a clean main checkout
  • pre-commit run clean across changed files (ruff check/format, mypy, codespell, yaml)
  • End-to-end verified in scratch repos: fail on bad tag at HEAD, pass via --rev on an older tagged commit, skip with exit 0 on untagged commits, piped and multi-tag behavior, GITHUB_REF_TYPE fallback, JSON output shape

GitHub gates tag name patterns behind its Enterprise-plan metadata
restrictions; this brings the same policy to every plan and forge,
closing the last ref-naming gap next to the branch rules (#557).

A new CC4xx range opens with CC401, checking every tag pointing at
the revision under test. --tag (-t) requests it; the pattern comes
from regex in the [tag] config section, CCHK_TAG_REGEX, or
--tag-regex, defaulting to SemVer with an optional leading v
(v1.2.3 or 1.2.3, pre-release and build suffixes included). A commit
with no tag is a skip, not a failure: the rule validates how tags
are named, and the absence of one is not a naming violation.

Piped input names tags directly, one per line — and when the lines
are the four-field refs a pre-push hook receives, the tags under
push are extracted from refs/tags/* instead (deletions exempt: they
remove a name rather than creating one). That makes the new
check-tag pre-commit hook validate exactly what a push carries. In
GitHub Actions tag builds where a shallow checkout may not carry the
tag ref, GITHUB_REF_NAME stands in.

validate_tag() joins the public API, and the JSON output carries the
rule ID and docs URL like every other rule.

Closes #557

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds configurable tag-name validation with a default SemVer pattern. It supports API and CLI usage, pre-push hooks, GitHub Actions tag fallback, stdin parsing, skip handling, and tests for configuration, rule construction, lookup, and validation.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to a0f3e

The PR adds CC401 tag-name validation across CLI, API, and pre-push flows. At the current head, edge cases can accept invalid SemVer identifiers, crash on malformed configuration, validate the wrong GitHub tag, or mis-handle Git lookup failures, while custom patterns have no execution bound. These bounded correctness and runtime risks should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge.

Inline comments:
In `@commit_check/__init__.py`:
- Line 101: Update the version regex in the module initializer to enforce strict
SemVer numeric identifiers: allow zero alone or nonzero-leading numeric
components for the version core and numeric pre-release identifiers, while
retaining the optional v prefix and existing alphanumeric pre-release/build
support.

In `@commit_check/api.py`:
- Line 205: Update the tag normalization around stdin_text to check explicitly
whether tag is None, preserving an explicit empty string instead of converting
it to None; keep the documented Git fallback limited to tag is None.

In `@commit_check/rule_builder.py`:
- Line 79: Update RuleBuilder’s tag configuration handling before constructing
ValidationRule: validate that config["tag"] is a mapping, and normalize invalid
or absent values to the expected empty/default structure. Also ensure tag.regex
is absent or a string before it reaches TagValidator and re.match(), preventing
non-mapping and non-string values from raising runtime errors.

In `@commit_check/util.py`:
- Around line 94-97: Update the tag fallback in get_tags_at to compare the
requested revision with the workflow event revision before using
GITHUB_REF_NAME. Only assign the workflow tag when they match; otherwise
preserve an empty tag result so --tag --rev other-sha cannot validate a tag from
another commit.
- Line 89: Update the command-output handling around cmd_output so a nonzero Git
exit status produces an empty list instead of parsing stderr as tag names.
Preserve normal output parsing for successful commands, allowing the
missing-HEAD case to return SKIP rather than triggering CC401.

In `@README.md`:
- Around line 260-263: Update the pre-commit snippet’s rev value to a released
commit-check tag that includes the check-tag hook and matches an available PyPI
package version; keep the existing hook configuration unchanged.

Five review findings, all verified before fixing:

* get_tags_at ran git through cmd_output, which returns stderr text
  on a nonzero exit instead of raising — so a git diagnostic could be
  parsed as a tag name and fail CC401 where the check should skip.
  Run git directly and read stdout only on exit 0.
* The GitHub Actions fallback could hand the event's tag name to
  --rev at a different commit; it now applies only to HEAD or the
  workflow's own GITHUB_SHA.
* The default pattern accepted leading zeroes (v01.2.3, v1.2.3-01),
  which SemVer forbids; the body is now the official semver.org
  pattern with the optional v prefix kept.
* A malformed [tag] section (non-table value, non-string regex) fell
  through to AttributeError/TypeError at validation time; it now
  falls back to the defaults.
* validate_tag("") read tags from HEAD behind the caller's back; an
  explicit empty string now names an empty tag list and skips.

The README check-tag snippet keeps its v2.15.1 pin per AGENTS.md
(pins track the latest published release) with a note that the hook
ships in the first release after it.
