Releasing Kata
Guide the release process for Kata's plugin marketplace distribution.
Release Flow Overview
1. Run tests locally
2. Bump version in package.json and plugin.json
3. Update CHANGELOG.md
4. Create release branch and PR
5. Merge PR to main
6. CI automatically: tests → build → create GitHub Release → push to marketplace
Step 1: Pre-Release Verification
Our workflow is PR-driven:
- Development happens on feature branches
