## Fixing a failed release build
**NEVER bump the version to fix a build problem.** New versions are reserved for meaningful product changes (features, fixes, improvements). Build/CI failures are fixed on the current version.
To retry a failed workflow for an existing tag:
1. **Retry via `workflow_dispatch`** — all release workflows support `workflow_dispatch` with a `tag` input:
```bash
gh workflow run "Desktop Release" -f tag=v0.1.28 # all platforms
gh workflow run "Desktop Release" -f tag=v0.1.28 -f platform=macos # single platform
gh workflow run "Android APK Release" -f tag=v0.1.28
gh workflow run "Deploy App" # no tag input needed
```
2. **Platform-specific retry tags** (desktop only) — push a tag like `desktop-macos-v0.1.28` to rebuild just that platform against the release tag's code
If the fix requires a code change (e.g. a broken build script), commit the fix to `main` and use `workflow_dispatch` pointing at the existing tag — the workflow checks out the tag ref, but for build-tooling fixes you may need to point it at `main` or cherry-pick the fix onto the tag.
## Notes
- `version:all:*` bumps root + syncs workspace versions and `@getpaseo/*` dependency versions
