#1311 Documentation gives conflicting behavior for pulling yanked extension versions
Opened by kneel · 7/21/2026· Shipped 7/21/2026
The documentation is inconsistent about whether consumers can pull a yanked Extension version.
The "Extension Trust and the Supply Chain" page (https://swamp-club.com/manual/explanation/extension-trust) states:
A yanked version is removed from automatic resolution but remains downloadable by exact pinned version, because existing lockfiles should not silently break.
The Publishing Commands reference (https://swamp-club.com/manual/reference/extensions/publishing) states under the yank section:
Yanked extensions cannot be pulled by consumers.
These two statements contradict each other. Please clarify the intended behavior and update both pages consistently. In particular, the documentation should distinguish between:
- Automatic or channel-based resolution
- An explicit pull of an exact version
- Restoration from an existing lockfile
