release

release is a command for Claude Code from bybren-llc/rendertrust. It costs 22 tokens per session (1,858 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of release, Apache-2.0.

A release command runs a stated sequence for publishing a new software version. It checks the repository, handles eligible pull requests, verifies CI, updates the version, creates tags and a GitHub release, syncs branches, and cleans up.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for a full version release after supplying a version or choosing the next one. It supports pre-release checks, pull request merging, version changes, release creation, synchronization, and cleanup.
Why use it?
It reduces the chance of skipping a release step or publishing from an unclean or outdated branch. A tag is a named marker for a specific version in Git.

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 yesterday.

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.

Origin

This is a copy

84% identical to release — 40 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 277 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

📋 TEMPLATE: This command uses dev, REN, and ByBren-LLC/{{GITHUB_REPO}} placeholders. Replace with your project values.

You are executing a full version release. Follow each phase in order. Do not skip phases. Report status after each.

Input

The user provides a version number (e.g., v2.7.0). If not provided, determine the next version by:

git tag -l 'v*' | sort -V | tail -1

Then bump the minor version (or ask the user for major/minor/patch).


Phase 1: Pre-Release Validation

1.1 Verify Clean State

git status                    # Must be clean
git branch --show-current     # Must be on dev
git fetch origin
git log --oneline origin/dev..HEAD  # Must be empty (in sync)

BLOCKER: Working tree must be clean and branch must be current with remote.

1.2 Check Open PRs

gh pr list --state open

Decision point: If there are open PRs intended for this release, merge them first (Phase 2). If none, skip to Phase 3.

1.3 Verify CI Status

For each open PR to merge:

gh pr view <NUMBER> --json mergeStateStatus,statusCheckRollup \
  --jq '{state: .mergeStateStatus, checks: [.statusCheckRollup[] | "\(.name): \(.conclusion // .status)"]}'

BLOCKER: All checks must pass. Do not merge PRs with failing required checks.


Phase 2: Merge Open PRs (if any)

2.1 Merge in Dependency Order

For each PR (merge in order — base dependencies first):

# Squash merge with proper commit message
gh pr merge <NUMBER> --squash --subject "type(scope): description [REN-XXX]"

2.2 Rebase Dependent PRs

After each merge, rebase any remaining PRs that target the same base:

git fetch origin
git checkout <dependent-branch>
git rebase origin/dev
git push --force-with-lease origin <dependent-branch>

Wait for CI to re-run before merging the next PR.

2.3 Sync Local After All Merges

git checkout dev
git pull origin dev

Phase 3: Version Bump

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.
