fix: wait for package on npm before publishing to mcp registry - #461

WalkthroughThe publish_npm job now checks for the tagged package version after publishing. It retries up to 60 times, with a 5-second delay between unsuccessful checks, and fails if the version does not appear within 5 minutes. Priority: ⬇️ Low Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to A slow npm lookup can delay the release workflow beyond five minutes before MCP publication continues or fails. Bound the polling step to keep that delay limited; the risk is localized to publishing. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

💡 Result:
The official **npm CLI v11 configuration docs** (currently v11.20.0) list:
- `fetch-timeout`: **300000 ms (5 minutes)** — maximum time to wait for HTTP requests to complete.
- `fetch-retries`: **2** — retries for registry fetches; npm retries idempotent read requests after network failures or 5xx responses. ([docs.npmjs.com](https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/v11/using-npm/config/?utm_source=openai))

Bound the npm polling step to five minutes.
npm view can use the five-minute fetch-timeout and retry failed registry reads twice. The current loop limits attempts, not elapsed time. A stalled request can exceed five minutes before the loop sleeps or fails.

Problem
The
publish_npmjob failed for 1.0.6 (run).npm publishsucceeded, butmcp-publisher publishstarted 14 seconds later and the MCP registry rejected it:npm does not serve a freshly published version immediately.
Fix
Add a step between the npm publish and the MCP registry publish that polls
npm view "@mobilenext/mobile-mcp@$VERSION" versionevery 5 seconds, and fails the job if the version has not appeared after 5 minutes.Test plan
npm viewexits 0 for a published version and 1 for a missing one (checked locally)
