Node.js NPM Auto Release

Overview

Provide a repeatable workflow to prepare, verify, and ship npm packages with a combined auto-version-and-publish GitHub Action, plus local checks before push.

Setup Checklist

1. Add release scripts in package.json

{
  "scripts": {
    "release:patch": "npm version patch -m \"chore(release): v%s\"",
    "release:minor": "npm version minor -m \"chore(release): v%s\"",
    "release:major": "npm version major -m \"chore(release): v%s\""
  }
}
