amelia: Command for Claude Code

Release Automation

Automate the full release process: generate notes, update files, create branch, and open PR.

No arguments required - automatically detects the previous tag.

---

Prerequisites

Verify we're on main and it's clean:

git checkout main
git pull
git status --short

If there are uncommitted changes, abort and ask the user to resolve them first.

Detect the previous tag:

PREV_TAG=$(git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null)
if [ -z "$PREV_TAG" ]; then
  echo "No previous tags found. This appears to be the first release."
  PREV_TAG="HEAD~100"  # Fallback to analyze recent history
fi
echo "Previous tag: $PREV_TAG"

Step 1: Generate Release Notes

Run /gen-release-notes ${PREV_TAG} to:

1. Analyze commits since the previous tag
2. Categorize changes (Added, Changed, Fixed, Security, etc.)
3. Determine the next version number
4. Update CHANGELOG.md with the new version section
5. Update pyproject.toml with the new version
6. Regenerate uv.lock (uv lock) so its editable-root amelia entry tracks the new version

Bumping pyproject.toml invalidates uv.lock's own entry (name = "amelia", source = { editable = "." }), whose version still points at the previous release. uv lock --check runs first in make check, the pre-push hook, and CI (before any uv run/uv sync can silently re-lock), and FAILS on a drifted lock — so a stale lock can never merge.

Do not proceed until CHANGELOG.md, pyproject.toml, and uv.lock are updated.

Step 2: Create Release Branch

After the files are updated, extract the version and create a branch:

# Extract version from pyproject.toml
VERSION=$(grep '^version = ' pyproject.toml | sed 's/version = "\(.*\)"/\1/')
echo "Creating release branch for version $VERSION"

# Create and checkout release branch
git checkout -b "chore/release-${VERSION}"

Step 3: Commit Changes

Commit all updated version files:

git add CHANGELOG.md pyproject.toml amelia/__init__.py dashboard/package.json uv.lock
git commit -m "chore(release): bump version to ${VERSION}"
