    "incantation": "For a custom build that uses `eas/build`, embedded-bundle upload is included when eligible. Add `eas/upload_embedded_bundle` only to a custom config that does not use `eas/build`; adding it alongside an enabled upload can make the second upload fail.",

      "build:\n  steps:\n    - eas/build",

    "gotchas": [
      "Version: v24.12.0",
      "`eas/build` inputs: The function accepts no inputs; its build process uses the build profile in `eas.json`.",
      "`inputs.ignore_error`: Boolean; defaults to `false`. When `true`, logs an upload failure without failing the build. No documented mutual-exclusion rule.",
      "Prerequisite: Custom build YAML belongs under `.eas/build/`; configure the build profile in `eas.json` to use that config.",
      "Prerequisite: The upload step skips if EAS Update is not configured, or for development builds and iOS Simulator builds. It uses the build profile's `channel` and `applicationArchivePath` (or the default output path); a missing channel or app can fail the step.",
      "Applies to custom builds that use `eas/build`.",
      "Docs conflict: The card's `new_action` says to add `eas/upload_embedded_bundle` to a config using `eas/build`. Official docs say `eas/build` already uploads when enabled and warn that adding the step can trigger a failing duplicate upload. The release note is consistent with automatic upload from `eas/build`."
