Jewel Release Helper

This skill is an interactive checklist designed to automate the high-level tasks of a Jewel release. Work through one step at a time. After completing each step, show a progress summary and ask the user to confirm before moving to the next. Never skip ahead.

Only someone at JetBrains with monorepo access can complete the full release, but this skill helps with every step possible in the community repository.

Check the platform/jewel/docs folder for detailed guides:

  • releasing-guide.md — full release process, cherry-pick workflow, publishing validation
  • api-compatibility.md — Metalava API dump validation, update workflow, compatibility-preserving patterns
  • pr-guide.md — PR conventions, commit message format, release notes template

This skill is meant to guide the user through the release process and automate the grunt work, rather than repeating every nuance of the documentation. If this skill's steps differ from the docs', use the docs' — that's the canonical source.

Important: Do NOT add Co-Authored-By trailers or any AI attribution to commits, tags, or release notes.
