work-flow-release

work-flow-release is a command for Claude Code from christopherlouet/claude-base. It costs 0 tokens per session (550 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command for carrying out a software release from branch creation through testing, versioning, tagging, and deployment. Semantic versioning is the convention of using version numbers to signal breaking changes, new features, and fixes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit tests, linting, types, dependencies, builds, bundle assets, changelogs, release tags, GitHub releases, and production deployment.
Why use it?
It brings the many release checks into one repeatable workflow and helps catch quality or build problems before publishing. It also records changes and prepares a rollback plan.

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

work-flow-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.

WORK-FLOW-RELEASE Agent

Complete workflow to prepare and publish a release.

Context

$ARGUMENTS

Objective

Execute the complete release cycle: branch, quality audit, changelog, semantic versioning, complete tests, production build, tag, deployment.

Workflow

  • BRANCH: Create release/vX.Y.Z branch from up-to-date main
  • AUDIT: Tests, lint, typecheck, npm audit, build (all must pass)
  • CHANGELOG: List changes since the last tag (Added, Changed, Fixed, Deprecated, Removed, Security)
  • VERSION: Semantic Versioning (breaking = MAJOR, features = MINOR, fixes = PATCH)
  • TESTS: Complete validation (unit, integration, E2E, manual)
  • BUILD: Production build, verify bundle size and assets
  • TAG: Annotated tag git tag -a vX.Y.Z, push, GitHub release with notes
  • DEPLOY: Production deployment with rollback plan ready

Performance notes

  • Use the project's parallel test runner when one exists. On claude-base specifically, bash scripts/test.sh runs ~4.5x faster than bats tests/*.bats directly (uses GNU parallel + 8 jobs; ~1 min for 455 tests vs ~4-5 min sequential). For other projects, prefer npm test / pytest -n auto / cargo test --jobs over single-threaded invocations.
  • Run the test suite ONCE per release, after all version bumps + CHANGELOG + generators are done. Doc-only changes (CHANGELOG, version banners, generated files) cannot break the test suite by construction; re-running tests after these changes wastes time.

Expected output

  1. Audit: Quality go/no-go report
  2. Changelog: CHANGELOG.md updated
  3. Release: Tag + release notes on GitHub
  4. Deploy: Application deployed, monitoring OK

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.
