Pull Request

Purpose

Workflow validation failed on release_pipeline.yml due to YAML parser interpreting multi-line Python code as YAML keys.

Change Summary

Converted multi-line Python command to single-line format in release_pipeline.yml (line 107)
- Original: 10-line Python block causing YAML parse error at line 108-109
- Fixed: Single-line Python command using -c flag
- Added comment documenting YAML compatibility requirement

# Before (YAML parse error)
VERSION=$(python3 -c "
import sys
sys.path.insert(0, '${GITHUB_WORKSPACE}/scripts/lib')
...
")

# After (YAML compliant)
VERSION=$(python3 -c "import sys; sys.path.insert(0, '${GITHUB_WORKSPACE}/scripts/lib'); import extension_utils; ...")

Testing Evidence

Workflow validation: 7/7 workflows pass (was 6/7)
Manifest and XML validation: pass
CodeQL security scan: no alerts

Risk and Rollback

Risk: Low. Functional change is zero - only reformatted Python command.

Rollback: Revert commit restores original (broken) state.

Reviewer Notes

Single-line Python format is required due to YAML indentation constraints. Multi-line heredoc and other approaches were tested but trigger same parse error. Alternative would be separate Python script file, which is larger scope than needed for syntax fix.
