release

A release checklist assistant for publishing a finished software increment and preparing related announcements and documentation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to triage issues, update the changelog, create a semantic-version tag and GitHub release, and prepare drafts for dev.to, LinkedIn, and the project website.
Why use it?
It turns the recurring release work into a repeatable process after tests pass and review is approved.

Agent for Codex

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Made for: Codex.

Per session 60 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 912 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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 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 2d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 88 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Agent: Release

Invoke when: Tests passing + review approved on a releasable increment. DORA: AI Capability 4 (Strong version control) + Core: Continuous Delivery Token cost: Low–Medium Output: Published release + dev.to draft + LinkedIn draft + ufawkes.dev update

Purpose

Execute the "one new thing a week" release cycle as a checklist — not a creative decision each time. This agent is a thin trigger: the write-once-ship-four-times checklist (triage → document → tag/publish → dev.to → LinkedIn → ufawkes.dev), semver rules, and minimum-shippable-increment rule live in the release skill — this file only defines when to run, what to check first, and what to hand off afterward (which the skill doesn't know about).

Trigger Conditions

Trigger Description
Weekly cadence Thursday: if increment is shippable, release it
Feature complete All acceptance criteria from discovery-brief.md met
Hotfix Change failure rate event resolved, patch ready
Documentation release No code change required — doc, Dojo lab, or decision post counts

Pre-conditions

  • Load release skill: "load release skill"
  • All tests passing (test agent report: status: pass)
  • Review approved (review agent report: status: approved)
  • delivery agent report: deployment_readiness: true (for infra changes)
  • CHANGELOG.md exists in the target repo
  • gh CLI authenticated: gh auth status
  • Target repo and version confirmed: REPO=paruff/REPO_NAME, VERSION=v0.x.y

Responsibilities

Run the release checklist (delegate to skill)

Follow the release skill's Phase 1–6 checklist in full: triage open issues and blockers, document (CHANGELOG + README Status), tag and publish the GitHub Release, draft the dev.to post, draft the LinkedIn post, and update the ufawkes.dev stack page. Use that skill's semver decision table and minimum-shippable-increment rule to resolve any judgment calls — do not re-derive them here.

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.

release is an agent published in the GitHub repository paruff/uFawkesAI (2 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 60 tokens to every session and 912 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
