Does it support dry runs?

Yes, the underlying automation supports dry-run modes to preview version changes and commands without executing git pushes or releases.

Which programming languages does the Release Runbook support?

It is language-agnostic and includes patterns for package.json, pyproject.toml, Cargo.toml, go.mod, and other common versioning files.

Can I run custom test suites before a release is finalized?

Yes, the skill encourages running project-defined tests like 'make test' or 'npm test' and will halt the process if tests fail.

How does it handle Homebrew updates?

Once the GitHub release is live, the skill can automatically fetch the new source tarball, calculate its SHA256 hash, and update the corresponding Formula file.

Automates the end-to-end software release process including version bumping, testing, tagging, and GitHub release creation.

소개

The Release Runbook skill provides a standardized, reliable workflow for cutting new software releases across various programming environments. It guides Claude through essential preflight repository checks, Semantic Versioning (SemVer) increments, and automated testing to ensure code quality before publication. By orchestrating the git tagging, pushing, and GitHub release creation processes, it eliminates manual errors and ensures consistency. Additionally, it handles downstream tasks like updating Homebrew formulas with new source URLs and SHA256 hashes, making it an essential tool for maintainers of open-source and private projects.
