Summary

Follow-up to #269. With wasm-component-ld installed, the v0.9.0 Release workflow's build-test-evidence gets further but fails again — highs-sys v1.12.1 (transitive C++ dep via spar) does a CMake CXX-ABI probe targeting wasm and clang++ can't find wasm-ld:

error: failed to spawn "wasm-ld"
clang++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1

wasm-ld is the LLVM wasm linker — shipped in the lld apt package. Install it alongside wasm-component-ld.

After merge

  • Delete + re-create the v0.9.0 tag at the new main HEAD to re-run the Release workflow with this fix. (v0.9.0 has published nothing yet, so re-tagging is safe.)

If build-test-evidence STILL fails after this on yet another missing wasm toolchain component, the better fix is to make that job continue-on-error: true so the release isn't blocked by compliance-artifact tooling — the binary builds (what users install) all succeed.

Test plan

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

Follow-up to #269. With wasm-component-ld now installed, the spar
wasm32-wasip2 build gets further but then fails: `highs-sys v1.12.1`
(a transitive C++ dependency) runs a CMake CXX-ABI detection probe
targeting wasm, and clang++ can't find `wasm-ld`:

  error: failed to spawn "wasm-ld"
  clang++: error: linker command failed with exit code 1

`wasm-ld` is the LLVM wasm linker, shipped in the `lld` apt package.
Install it alongside wasm-component-ld. v0.8.0 built test-evidence on
a runner image / nightly combo that still had both.

#272)

After #269 (wasm-component-ld) and #271 (lld/wasm-ld), the build-test-
evidence job still fails: the spar wasm32-wasip2 build pulls in highs-sys
(a C++ solver), whose CMake CXX-ABI probe needs a full WASI C/C++ SDK —
wasm-ld can't find crt1.o, -lc, -lc++, -lc++abi, or
libclang_rt.builtins-wasm32.a. The runner image no longer ships a wasi
sysroot, and wiring in wasi-sdk is a bigger lift.

The test-evidence bundle is a compliance artifact, not a user-facing
binary. Mark the job continue-on-error so a failure doesn't skip Create
GitHub Release — the release ships 8/9 assets (all binaries + vsix +
compliance report + SHA256SUMS, minus rivet-vX.Y.Z-test-evidence.tar.gz).
Restoring it properly (install wasi-sdk, set WASI_SDK_PATH) is tracked
separately.

Surfaced blocking the v0.9.0 release.

…-error

Follow-up to #269/#271/#272. The spar wasm32-wasip2 build pulls in
highs-sys (a C++ solver); building C/C++ for that target needs a full
WASI toolchain — a sysroot with libc/libc++/libc++abi plus
libclang_rt.builtins-wasm32.a, and a wasm linker. The runner image no
longer ships any of it, so even with `lld` (wasm-ld) and
wasm-component-ld installed, wasm-ld errored on `crt1.o` / `-lc` /
`-lc++`. #272 made the job continue-on-error so the release wasn't
blocked (v0.9.0 shipped 8/9 assets, missing only test-evidence.tar.gz).

This installs wasi-sdk 25.0 to /opt/wasi-sdk, puts its bin/ on PATH (so
wasm-component-ld finds wasm-ld and the cc/cmake build scripts pick up
the right clang), and pins CC_/CXX_/AR_wasm32_wasip2 + the wasip2
sysroot via CFLAGS_/CXXFLAGS_wasm32_wasip2 — so both the CMake CXX-ABI
probe and the highs-sys compile resolve their headers/libs. `lld` stays
as a belt-and-braces wasm-ld source. Drops `continue-on-error` — if
test-evidence breaks again it should block the release until fixed.

Not verified locally (spar isn't checked out here); the wasip2 sysroot
flags or the wasi-sdk version may need a tweak after the first CI run.
Alternative for a hermetic toolchain (out of scope here): migrate the
spar-wasm build to Bazel rules_wasm_component — a change in the spar repo.
