Can I release pre-release versions?

Yes, the script is designed to preserve version suffixes like -alpha and -beta when performing patch, minor, or major version bumps.

What is independent versioning in this skill?

Independent versioning allows each plugin in a marketplace repository to maintain its own version number and release cycle, rather than forcing a single version on the entire repository.

How does it handle documentation updates?

It automatically maintains a version table in your marketplace README.md and updates the version badges in the header to reflect the latest releases.

Does this skill require the GitHub CLI?

Yes, it requires the GitHub CLI (gh) to be installed and authenticated to automate repository tasks like creating tags and publishing releases.

What happens if a plugin fails validation?

The release process will automatically halt and provide a descriptive error message, ensuring that invalid plugins are never published to the marketplace.
