Release Notes

## [1.0.0-preview5] - 2026-08-27

### Changed

- AzureDevOpsDscNative
- Updated the `Dsc.PipelineRunner` documentation in `USAGE.md` and the
   "Pipeline runner initialization" example in every resource doc under
   `source/Examples/Resources` (published to the GitHub wiki on release) to
   match the latest `Dsc.PipelineRunner` release: `Invoke-AzDoLCM` is now
   `Invoke-DscPipelineRunner` (an Azure DevOps back-compat shim) or, for new
   integrations, the provider-agnostic `Invoke-DscRunner`. The
   `ConfigurationDirectory` and `ConfigurationUrl` parameters were renamed to
   `exportConfigDir` and `ConfigurationSourcePath`, and the cache directory
   environment variable is now `PIPELINERUNNER_CACHE_DIRECTORY` (with
   `AZDODSC_CACHE_DIRECTORY` retained as a back-compat alias).
- The integration-test release gate now differentiates between a full release
   and a prerelease. A full release tag (`vX.Y.Z`) still requires every
   integration test to pass; a prerelease tag (`vX.Y.Z-<suffix>`) passes
   `allowFailures=true` to the integration workflow, so individual test failures
   are logged as warnings but the release still proceeds - preview builds can
   ship despite flaky or in-progress tests. Setup and infrastructure failures
   (Pester missing, module not resolving, no test result at all) still fail the
   gate in both modes, so a broken environment cannot silently pass. Implemented
   by an `-AllowFailures` switch on `Invoke-Tests.ps1` and an `allowFailures`
   input on `integration-tests.yml` that `publish.yml` sets from the tag.

### Added

- AzureDevOpsDscNative
- Added a `/run-azuredevopsdscnative` skill (`.claude/skills/run-azuredevopsdscnative/`)
   with a self-contained driver script for running the Common unit suite
   headless on Linux from a clean container. Installs PowerShell 7 if missing,
   side-loads Pester 5.7.1 from `api.nuget.org` when PowerShell Gallery is
   unreachable, runs the bootstrap, and exits non-zero on test failure. Does
   not run the Classes suite (needs a built module) or the build (needs
   PSGallery-hosted Sampler/ModuleBuilder) or integration tests (need the
   self-hosted runner and a live org).
- AzureDevOpsDsc
- Added DSC v3 support: all 49 class-based DSC resources now declare `Set()`
   and `Test()` directly (delegating to `AzDevOpsDscResourceBase`) instead of
   relying on pure inheritance, so both the `Microsoft.Adapter/PowerShell`
   runtime adapter and `DscResource.Authoring`'s manifest generator correctly
   detect `get`/`set`/`test` capabilities instead of only `get`.
- Added a `dscv3` build workflow (`Create_DscAdaptedResourceManifests`,
   `Create_DscResourceManifestsList` from `DscResource.Authoring`) that
   generates DSC v3 adapted resource manifests for every resource into the
   built module output, and wired it into `pack`.
- Renamed the module from `AzureDevOpsDsc` to `AzureDevOpsDscNative` for
   publishing under this fork, since PowerShell Gallery names are globally
   unique and this repo doesn't own the existing `AzureDevOpsDsc` listing.
- Added GitHub Actions workflows: `build.yml` (build + generate DSC v3
   manifests as CI artifacts on every push/PR), `unit-tests.yml` (runs the
   Classes and Common unit test suites), and `publish.yml` (tag-triggered
   release: builds, re-runs both test suites as a release gate, packages the
   module, and publishes a GitHub Release plus - once a Gallery API key is
   configured - PowerShell Gallery).
- Updated pipeline files to support change of default branch to main.
- Added GitHub issue templates and pull request template
([issue #1](https://github.com/dsccommunity/AzureDevOpsDsc/issues/1))
- Added the `AzDevOpsProject`, DSC Resource
- Fixed non-terminating, integration tests ([issue #18](https://github.com/dsccommunity/AzureDevOpsDsc/issues/18))
- Increased Azure DevOps, API timeout to 5 minutes to allow for busy/slow API
   operations ([issue #25](https://github.com/dsccommunity/AzureDevOpsDsc/issues/25)).
- Updated contextual help ([issue #5](https://github.com/dsccommunity/AzureDevOpsDsc/issues/5)).
- Removed `Classes` directory from being output in packaged module ([issue #10](https://github.com/dsccommunity/AzureDevOpsDsc/issues/10)).
- Removed `Examples` directory from being output in packaged module ([issue #11](https://github.com/dsccommunity/AzureDevOpsDsc/issues/11)).
- Moved 'Ensure' and 'RequiredAction' enums into 'Enum' directory and out of
   'prefix.ps1' ([issue #12](https://github.com/dsccommunity/AzureDevOpsDsc/issues/12)).
- Added pipeline support for publish markdown content to the GitHub repository
   wiki ([issue #15](https://github.com/dsccommunity/AzureDevOpsDsc/issues/15)).
   This will publish the markdown documentation that is generated by the build pipeline.
- Added new source folder `WikiSource`. Every markdown file in the folder
   `WikiSource` will be published to the GitHub repository wiki. The markdown
   file `Home.md` will be updated with the correct module version on each
   publish to gallery (including preview).
- CodeCov integration.

- AzDoGroupPermission

- Added Supporting Functions for Azure Managed Identity.
- Added Unit Testing to AzureDevOpsDsc.Common

### Changed

- AzureDevOpsDscNative
- Made the integration test suite a hard release gate. `publish.yml` is now
   split into `validate`, `integration-tests` and `publish` jobs, where
   `publish` depends on `integration-tests`; the integration job calls
   `integration-tests.yml` as a reusable workflow (rather than duplicating it)
   and builds the exact version being released. No GitHub Release and no
   PowerShell Gallery package is produced unless every integration test passes.
   The integration job runs as an ordinary Actions job on the self-hosted
   `AZDO-AGENT` runner - it does not use a GitHub Environment, so there is no
   deployment record or manual approval gate, and `AZURE_DEVOPS_PAT` and
   `AzureDevOpsOrg` must be repository-level rather than Environment-scoped.
- Reworked the release process so that a released version has exactly one
   source of truth - the git tag. `publish.yml` now also verifies the tag is
   contained in `main` before releasing, accepts prerelease tags of the form
   `vX.Y.Z-preview0001`, and runs the `docs` tasks during packaging so the
   published package ships conceptual help. The `moduleVersion` in the module
   manifest and `next-version` in `GitVersion.yml` are documented as build
   fallbacks and brought into agreement with each other.
- Added a changelog roll-over step to `publish.yml`
   (`Create_ChangeLog_GitHub_PR`), so a release converts the `[Unreleased]`
   section into a versioned one instead of carrying its entries into the next
   release.
- Moved `Publish_GitHub_Wiki_Content` out of the `publish` task chain in
   `build.yaml` and into a separate non-blocking step, so a wiki failure can no
   longer fail a release whose Gallery package has already been published.
- Added a `docs` step to `build.yml` so documentation generation is exercised
   on every push and pull request rather than for the first time during a
   release.
- Documented the full release procedure and required repository secrets in
   `CONTRIBUTING.md`, and corrected the `Releases` section of `README.md`,
   which described an automatic preview release on every merge to `main` that
   this fork's workflows never performed.
- AzureDevOpsDsc
- Enabled integration tests against https://dev.azure.com/azuredevopsdsc/ (see
   comment https://github.com/dsccommunity/AzureDevOpsDsc/issues/9#issuecomment-766375424
   for more information).
- Updated pipeline file `RequiredModules.ps1` to latest pipeline pattern.
- Updated pipeline file `build.yaml` to latest pipeline pattern.
- Updated pipeline file `azure-pipelines.yml` to use correct images (hosted runners)
   and correct task for artifacts.
- Enhanced Authentication Mechanisms.
   The classes have been refactored to accommodate a variety of authentication methods.
   This refactoring allows the system to support multiple authentication
   protocols, enhancing security and providing flexibility in integrating with
   different identity providers.
- Added LookupResult Property to classes. A new property, LookupResult,
   has been introduced to the classes. This
