GOAL
Debug a failing rattler-build for the process-compose-feedstock and fix the underlying license detection issue, then validate with rerender and lint.
- +0Prompt · +0rattler-build build fails for process-compose-feedstock; run it, observe the error and fix using the conda-forge skill.
- +0mAgent did · +0mLoaded conda-forge skill docs and ran the failing rattler-build command to capture the error output.
- +0mAgent did · +0mDiagnosed the failure as go-licenses being unable to detect the license for github.com/alecthomas/chroma/v2, read the recipe and the skill's go-licenses reference.
- +1mAgent did · +1mEdited recipe/recipe.yaml to add --ignore for the chroma/v2 package and a manual copy step for its COPYING file.
- +1mFail · +1mTried to validate the YAML with python3 to sanity-check the edit, but python3 was not found on the system.
- +1mAgent did · +1mRe-ran the build via pixi exec rattler-build instead; build succeeded with all tests passing.
- +2mAgent did · +2mRan conda-smithy rerender and lint to finalize the feedstock changes; lint reported the recipe in fine form.
- +4mOutcome · +4mBuild fixed: recipe.yaml patched for go-licenses ignore + manual COPYING copy, build passes all tests, rerender and lint clean.
VERDICT
I'd start the prompt by pointing straight at the conda-forge skill's go-licenses reference since that's exactly where the fix came from — it saved a lot of guesswork. The python3-not-found hiccup was a minor detour; switching to pixi exec for validation is what actually got the build running again. Overall the skill-guided diagnosis did most of the work here.
