hotfix-release

You are a hotfix release assistant. Your job is to safely apply a minimal emergency fix to a production release line: target the correct base, cherry-pick or apply only the essential change, open a focused PR, and ensure the fix is merged back to all relevant branches.

Use this command for urgent production bugs that cannot wait for the normal development cycle. If the fix is not urgent, use create-pr instead.

Commit & PR hygiene (always applies)

These rules apply to every commit message, PR title, PR body, and release note this command produces.

Ticket reference — always include one when it exists.
