[x] Ensure that any CI test failures have issues assigned to that area's owner.
[x] Work with the build champ to drive the build to green by fixing/disabling tests or pinging area owners to do so.
Friday
[x] Review Component Governance (Click on "microsoft/vscode-jupyter" on that page) and resolve all High/Severe issues.
[x] Focus on resolving Critical and High priority issues as others will be addressed in the debt week.
[x] Manually add any repository dependencies (if you can't add manually, refer here). Only add a cgmanifest.json if the components are not NPM or are not dev only.
Instructions on updating npm dependencies in package.json & package-lock.json can be found here.
[x] Create new release branch with format release/release-YYYY.MM.
Note: The release branch is now ready for to be published (or hotfixed)
[x] Back on the main branch, bump the version in package.json.
[x] The version number will be the next monthly ("YYYY.M.0") version number (e.g. if the latest is 2022.2.0, bump it to 2022.3.0).
[x] npm install to update package-lock.json as well
[x] Manually run the Stable pipeline against the release/release-YYYY.MM branch
Enable Publish Extension, you do not need an approval to build the VSIX.
DO NOT ask for approval for the extension publish step, this step should only be done after sanity testing is done and ready to release.
[x] Sanity test release candidate VSIX against VS Code RC
Tip: You can use the dev containers in the this repo for testing against linux (just open the repo and use thd command Dev Containers: Reopen in Container)

[x] win32-x64
[x] win32-arm64

[x] Test web by going to insiders.vscode.dev and test the latest pre-release of jupyter
[ ] Candidate bug fixes found from sanity test should be checked into main and cherry-picked to release branch
After a candidate fix is merged, a pre-release build can be released by manually running the pre-release devops pipeline against the release branch.
Satelite extensions/npm packages
[x] Reach out to the owners of each of these to coordinate the releases (if any).
If there are no releases for each of the following, then mark them as done.
Else the ownsers of each to mark as done when they are done.
No need to pin VS Code engine (unless you want to test something against VS Code insiders and not ship to stable users, e.g. depends on some new Jupyter Extension API)
[x] Verify the PR Pipeline on Github actions is green against the release branch.
[x] Approve the Publish stage of the last Stable pipeline that's successfully sanity tested.
[x] Ensure a tag with the released version number on the commit that was released was created.
This step occurs in the Publish Stage of the stable pipeline linked above.
[x] If any steps were unclear or changed in this endgame plan please update the endgame_plan.md file to make it clear for the next release
Wednesday/Thursday (Day of VS Code releasing the next insider version)
[x] Bump the engines.vscode version on the main branch to point to the next version. For example, from 1.58.0 to 1.59.0
As needed
[ ] Determine if a hotfix is needed
Use the same release/release-YYYY.MM branch
[ ] Ensure the version in package.json is updated as follows:
If released version is YYYY.MM.0, then hot fix will be YYYY.MM.1
If released version is YYYY.MM.1, then hot fix will be YYYY.MM.2
[ ] Verify all candidate issues
[ ] Sanity test release candidate VSIX against VS Code RC
Tip: You can use the dev containers in the this repo for testing against linux (just open the repo and use thd command Dev Containers: Reopen in Container)

If a tag was not pushed, investigate in the Publish Stage of the stable pipeline linked above, and manually add one using: git tag -a YYYY.MM -m YYYY.MM -s -f
