release

release is a command for coding agents from jezweb/claude-skills. It costs 7 tokens per session (92 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A command for preparing and publishing a software release on GitHub, a service for hosting code and project history. It can use a supplied version or determine the next one from Git tags.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to scan a project, validate its license and README, create a version tag, and publish a GitHub release.
Why use it?
It organizes release checks and publishing steps that are easy to forget when done manually. It also checks for exposed secrets, personal artifacts, and required project files before publishing.

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.

npx agentmods add commands/jezweb/claude-skills/release
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/jezweb/claude-skills

Or install dev-tools, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 16 skills, 14 commands.

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 B, and why

release scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 5d 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.

Unrestricted tool accessmediumExcessive agency

A wildcard tool grant or "run any command" leaves no least-privilege boundary at all.

What it actually says

Load the github-release skill and prepare a release.

If $ARGUMENTS contains a version (e.g. v1.2.0), use it. Otherwise, determine the next version from git tags.

Workflow: secrets scan → personal artifact check → LICENSE/README validation → create tag → publish via gh CLI.

Changes

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.
