Summary:
bypass-github-export-checks
OSS release infrastructure for the (experimental) React Native DevTools standalone shell.
Currently, binaries are built continuously on Meta infra and served from the Meta CDN using fbcdn.net URLs checked into a DotSlash file in the repo, e.g.:
https://github.com/facebook/react-native/blob/15373218ec572c0e43325845b80a849ad5174cc3/packages/debugger-shell/bin/react-native-devtools#L9-L18
For open source releases we want to primarily distribute the binaries as GitHub release assets, while keeping the Meta CDN URLs as a secondary option. This PR makes the necessary changes to the release workflows to support this:
* `workflows/create-release.yml` (modified): As part of the release commit, rewrite the DotSlash file to include the release asset URLs.
* **NOTE:** After this commit, **the new URLs don't work yet**, because they refer to a release that hasn't been published. Despite this, the DotSlash file remains valid and usable (because DotSlash will happily fall back to the Meta CDN URLs, which are still in the file).
* `workflows/create-draft-release.yml` (modified): After creating a draft release, fetch the binaries from the Meta CDN and reupload them to GitHub as release assets. This is based on the contents of the DotSlash file rewritten by `create-release.yml`.
* `workflows/validate-dotslash-artifacts.yml` (new): After the release is published, all URLs referenced by the DotSlash (both Meta CDN URL and GH release asset URLs) should be valid and refer to the same artifacts. This workflow checks that this is the case.
* If this workflow fails on a published release, the release may need to be burned or a hotfix release may be necessary - as the release will stop working correctly once the Meta CDN stops serving the assets.
* This workflow will also be running continuously on `main`. If it fails on a commit in `main`, there might be a connectivity issue between the GHA runner and the Meta CDN, or there might be an issue on the Meta side.
NOTE: These changes to the release pipeline are generic and reusable; if we later add another DotSlash-based tool whose binaries need to be mirrored as GitHub release assets, we just need to add it to the `FIRST_PARTY_DOTSLASH_FILES` array.
## Changelog:
[Internal] Mirror React Native DevTools binaries in GitHub Releases
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/52930
Test Plan:
### Step 0: Unit tests
I've added unit tests for `dotslash-utils`, `curl-utils`, and for the majority of the logic that makes up the new release scripts (`write-dotslash-release-assets-urls`, `upload-release-assets-for-dotslash`, `validate-dotslash-artifacts`).
### Step 1: Test release commit
Created a test branch and draft PR: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/53147.
Locally created a release commit, simulating the create-release GH workflow:
```
node scripts/releases/create-release-commit.js --reactNativeVersion 0.82.0-20250903-0830 --no-dry-run
```
This updated the DotSlash file in the branch: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/53147/commits/2deeb7e70376ee80b99f27bea4825789f22a89a3#diff-205a9ff6005e30be061eaa64b9cb50b15b0e909dd188e0866189e952655a3483
NOTE: I've also ensured that the `create-release-commit` script correctly updates the DotSlash file when running from a branch that already has a release commit - see screenshot:

### Step 2: Test draft release
Enabled testing the create-draft-release GH workflow in the test branch using these temporary hacks:
* https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/53147/commits/81f334eac5147d4dbf5f6d7d627ddfa52cd197be
* https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/53147/commits/6d8851657629de7e0b710ed8f5dd7d0f7b9847cc
* https://github.com/facebook/react-native/pull/53147/commits/1428a8da8b9fb29c45fc33d79f311dd1fe273433
Workflow run: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/actions/runs/17426711373/job/49475327346
Draft release: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/releases/tag/untagged-c6a62a58e5baa37936e1
Draft release screenshot for posterity (since we'll likely delete the draft release after landing this):
<img width="1024" height="814" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1900da15-48f6-4274-b29c-0ac2019d92c0" />
### Step 3: Test post-release validation script
For obvious reasons, I've avoided actually publishing the above draft release. But I have run the `validate-dotslash-artifacts` workflow on the *current* branch to ensure that the logic is correct: https://github.com/motiz88/react-native/actions/runs/17426885205/job/49475888486
Running `node scripts/releases/validate-dotslash-artifacts.js` in the release branch (without publishing the release first) fails, as expected:
<img width="1105" height="748" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ed23a2e2-7a31-42eb-a324-f1d50eafe2fb" />
## Next steps
This PR is all the infra needed ahead of the 0.82 ~~branch cut~~ infra freeze to support the React Native DevTools standalone shell, at least on the GitHub side. ~~Some minor infra work remains on the Meta side, plus some product/logic changes to the React Native DevTools standalone shell that I'm intending to finish in time for 0.82 (for an experimental rollout).~~ EDIT: All the planned work has landed; the feature is code-complete on `main` as well as in `0.82-stable` (apart from this infra change).
As a one-off, once we've actually published 0.82.0-rc.1, we'll want to have a human look at the published artifacts and CI workflow logs to ensure everything is in order. (I'll make sure to communicate this to the 0.82 release crew.) Afterwards, the automation added in this PR should be sufficient.

Minor thing, but the fact that these fixture `package.json`s for testing a release script reference real Metro packages and versions always trips me up when I'm updating Metro (grepping, etc).
There's no need for them to mention Metro - any non-RN package is sufficient to test that the script preserves other dependencies. This swaps them for dummy packages.

Summary:
The `ReactNativeVersion.h` file currently contains a `struct` that holds the React Native version (e.g. `1000.0.0`, as individual ints).
For some libraries, we need to conditionally compile out code when using an older React Native version, and that's where library authors usually set compiler flags that hold the react native version - those are usually resolved using a `node require.resolve` script in the Podspec or build.gradle, adding unnecessary complexity.
With this PR this becomes obsolete as we now create a `#define` that holds the React Native version directly - so e.g.
```cpp
#define REACT_NATIVE_VERSION_MAJOR 0
#define REACT_NATIVE_VERSION_MINOR 67
#define REACT_NATIVE_VERSION_PATCH 1
```
..which we can then use to conditionally compile some code in our libraries:
```cpp
#include <React/ReactNativeVersion.h>
#if REACT_NATIVE_VERSION_MINOR >= 76
// new stuff
#else
// fallback
#endif
```
## Changelog:
[INTERNAL] [ADDED] - Added `REACT_NATIVE_VERSION_*` C++ defines to `ReactNativeVersion.h`

- Rename `set-rn-version` to `set-rn-artifacts-version` (more accurate).
