What does the Navigator Release skill prevent?

It prevents 'broken' releases caused by uncommitted files, missing skills in the JSON manifest, or mismatched version numbers across different project files.

Can I use this for daily commits?

No, this skill is specifically for versioned releases. For standard changes, you should use regular git workflow commands.

What happens if the pre-release validation fails?

The process stops immediately and provides a detailed error report, such as identifying untracked skills or version mismatches, allowing you to fix issues before publishing.

How do I trigger the release process?

You can trigger it by telling Claude phrases like 'release plugin', 'publish navigator', or 'create release v1.0.0'.

Does it handle GitHub releases automatically?

Yes, once validation passes, the skill creates a git tag, pushes to the main branch, and uses the GitHub CLI to generate an official release with notes.
