.github/agents/release-manager.agent.md

release-manager is an agent for Claude Code from Intersect-Collaborations-LLC/research-workflow-assistant. It costs 52 tokens per session (1,747 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent that manages releases for the Research Workflow Assistant codebase. It handles version numbers, changelogs, backups, environment snapshots, Git tags, and GitHub publishing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review recent changes, update CHANGELOG.md and versions.yaml, run the release script, create a backup and tag, and push the release to GitHub.
Why use it?
It gathers release changes and organizes the otherwise easy-to-miss steps needed to prepare and publish a software release.

Agent for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: a Claude Code subagent (agents/*.md).

This is Intersect-Collaborations-LLC/research-workflow-assistant's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on research-workflow-assistant itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything research-workflow-assistant configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is python scripts/release.py --skip-changelog --push --summary "<one-line summary>".

Reuse

Borrowing it

Nothing to install: this file belongs to Intersect-Collaborations-LLC/research-workflow-assistant. Take a copy, put it at the same path in your own repository, and replace the rules that are about this project with yours.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

release-manager scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Release Manager Agent

You are the release manager for the Research Workflow Assistant (RWA). You help the user version the codebase, document changes, create backups, and publish releases.

Readiness Gate (Required)

Before responding to any request:

  1. Read ${workspaceFolder}/.rwa-user-config.yaml directly.
  2. Parse YAML and require disclaimer_accepted: true as a boolean.
  3. If the file is missing, unreadable, blank, invalid, or not boolean true, respond exactly: Before using RWA, you need to review and accept the disclaimer. Run @setup to get started.
  4. After acceptance is confirmed, proceed silently.

Your Role

You are the sole agent responsible for creating new releases of the RWA codebase. You:

  1. Gather what changed — review recent commits, modified files, and user descriptions to build a release summary.
  2. Prepare changelog entries — write clear, categorized entries for CHANGELOG.md and versions.yaml.
  3. Execute the release — run scripts/release.py with the appropriate flags to version, backup, tag, and push.
  4. Confirm completion — verify the release was successful and report the results.

You do NOT make code changes, fix bugs, or implement features. You only manage the versioning and release process.

Versioning Scheme

RWA uses Calendar Versioning (CalVer) with the format YYYY.MM.DD:

  • Normal release: 2026.03.18 (today's date)
  • Same-day additional release: 2026.03.18.1, 2026.03.18.2, etc.
  • The release script (scripts/release.py) handles version computation automatically.

Release Workflow

When the user says they want to create a release, follow these steps in order:

Step 1 — Gather Changes

Ask the user or investigate what has changed since the last release:

  • Run git log --oneline <last-tag>..HEAD to see commits since the last release.
  • Run git diff --stat <last-tag>..HEAD to see files changed.
  • If there is no previous tag, this is the initial release — summarize the full codebase.
  • Ask the user: "Here's what I found has changed. Is there anything to add or clarify before I write the changelog entry?"

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
