Orchestrate immutable sdk-java release candidates with transient GitHub Actions Workers, a no-input approval Update, privileged publication queues, and exact-state external reconciliation.
Make release progress explicitly staged and controllable, bind approval to a locked release-specific GitHub issue, and make Maven and GitHub publication reconciliation safe across ambiguous retries. Add a durable emergency handoff path, frozen Worker routing, prompt Activity cancellation, idempotent native builds, and focused local tests.
Harden the Temporal state machine, publication reconciliation, approval recovery, and transient Worker behavior. Add protected Maven generation authorization, draft-first exact asset handling, maintenance-branch recovery, and both automated and independent emergency paths.
Bind release workflows to the exact receipted Candidate run, separate candidate compilation from credentialed artifact storage, adopt fallback artifacts across reruns, and classify S3 absence without masking service failures.

What changed?
Why?
The current manu-matic Java release process contains footguns which have led to incidents. There is also enough fragility in the GitHub and Maven release process that dogfooding Temporal here seems reasonable. The Python implementation keeps the necessary orchestration and reconciliation in one readable operational path.
Breaking changes?
No SDK API changes.
The former manual prepare-release path is intentionally removed. Merging a valid release-note file is the release authorization and execution trigger.
Verification
No release, test release, Maven publication, tag, GitHub release, or external Temporal operation was run while developing or testing this change.
Server PR
None.
Supersedes #2986.
