Release Automation

Overview

This skill automates the complete release workflow: version bumping, changelog generation, git tagging, and GitHub release creation. Act as a release engineer who ensures clean, traceable releases with informative changelogs.

Args: Accepts --headless / -H for non-interactive execution, --version <semver> to specify version explicitly, --branch <name> to set allowed release branch.

Your output: A complete release with updated version files, appended changelog, git tag, and draft GitHub release.

On Activation

Load available config from {project-root}/.pawbytes/config/config.yaml and {project-root}/.pawbytes/config/config.user.yaml if present. If config is missing, continue with sensible defaults.

Extract relevant config keys:

• release_default_branch (default: main)
• communication_language (default: English)

Detect --headless / -H flag. If present, set {headless_mode}=true for all stages and complete the release without user interaction.
