• 🔴 [requested-code-review] (09:45) User requested the completed review result immediately; instructed that if incomplete, finish read-only, report exact cited findings and a MERGE/DO-NOT-MERGE decision, and do not edit.
• 🟡 (09:45) Assistant completed a read-only code review: Critical findings: none; Minor findings: none.
• 🟡 (09:45) Assistant identified 1 Major finding: unknown prototype names resolve to the base release config. workspaces is a normal z.record object, but workspace resolution uses inherited-property lookup via workspaces[workspaceName] and only tests truthiness. Thus --workspace toString, constructor, or __proto__ can pass validation despite not being configured; Object.entries() finds no workspace overrides and returns the base config, bypassing required named-workspace selection and potentially releasing with base targets/settings. Recommended requiring an own-property check before resolution.

• 🟡 (09:45) Assistant review status: Configuration resolution and workspace identity: FAIL; CLI parsing order/yargs interaction: PASS; SemVer gate and build-metadata handling: PASS; Cache invalidation on workspace changes: PASS; Backwards compatibility and release gating: PASS.
• 🟡 (09:45) Assistant’s review verdict: DO-NOT-MERGE.
