## Summary The `Run Tests (PowerShell 5.1)` CI job has been failing on every PR (e.g. #468, #469, #470) during `build.ps1 -Bootstrap` with: ``` PSDepend\0.3.8\Private\SemanticVersion.ps1: Cannot add type. The type name 'System.Management.Automation.SemanticVersion' already exists. ``` ### Root cause PSDepend `0.3.8` ships an **unguarded** `Add-Type` for its Windows PowerShell 5.1 `SemanticVersion` polyfill: ```powershell if ($PSVersionTable.PSVersion.Major -lt 6) { Add-Type -TypeDefinition $code } ``` On PS 5.1, `System.Management.Automation.SemanticVersion` is not a built-in type, so this runs. When PSDepend is imported a **second time** in the same session — which the bootstrap triggers because PSDepend is pinned as a dependency of itself in `requirements.psd1` — the `Add-Type` throws, since the type already exists in the AppDomain. PowerShell 6+ is unaffected: the type is built in, so the guard short-circuits. PSDepend `0.4.1` (newly released) adds the missing existence guard, making the polyfill idempotent: ```powershell if ($PSVersionTable.PSVersion.Major -lt 6 -and -not ('System.Management.Automation.SemanticVersion' -as [type])) { Add-Type -TypeDefinition $code } ``` ### Fix Bump the PSDepend pin in `requirements.psd1` from `0.3.8` → `0.4.1`. ## Reproduction / verification Reproduced on local Windows PowerShell 5.1 (`5.1.26100`) by pre-defining the type then dot-sourcing each version's `SemanticVersion.ps1`: | PSDepend | Result | | --- | --- | | `0.3.8` | ❌ `Cannot add type. The type name 'System.Management.Automation.SemanticVersion' already exists.` | | `0.4.1` | ✅ no-op (guard skips `Add-Type`) | CI will confirm the PS 5.1 job goes green on this PR. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The "Plaster vX.Y.Z module loaded successfully" message was logged at Information level with -InformationAction Continue, so it printed on every import regardless of $env:PLASTER_LOG_LEVEL. Demote it (and the symmetric "module is being removed" message) to Verbose so they are silent by default and only surface when the user opts in via PLASTER_LOG_LEVEL=Verbose. The version already comes from the .psd1 ModuleVersion, so the message prints the correct installed version. Fixes #458 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The CI changelog linter (mindsers/changelog-reader-action, error level) validates the latest non-Unreleased entry. With the manifest fix as the only change, the latest entry was the released 2.1.2, which carries a "Changed" section illegal for a patch bump (2.1.1 -> 2.1.2), failing the check on every PR. Add a 2.1.3 entry containing only Fixed for this change and bump the manifest to match. The latest entry now validates as a clean patch and 2.1.2's released history is left untouched.

The CI changelog linter runs with validation_depth: 10, so it validates the ten newest released entries — not just the latest. 2.1.2 is a patch (2.1.1 -> 2.1.2) yet carried a "Changed" entry for the CI workflow migration (#457), which Keep a Changelog disallows for a patch bump. That CI migration is internal build infrastructure with no user-facing behavior change, so remove it from the changelog. 2.1.2 now validates as a clean patch (its genuine Fixed entries are unchanged), unblocking the linter for this and future PRs.

Closes #458.
The

Import-PowerShellDataFile … .ModuleVersion), so the message prints the correct installed version (e.g.v2.1.2). The reporter sawv2.0.0only because that was their installed build.Changes
