In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare and publish versioned releases from recent commits, including release notes, a version bump, an annotated tag, and the corresponding push.

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

03-release-tag 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Release Tag

Cuts annotated semver releases with notes derived from recent commits.

Actions

# Action Role Input
01 release-tag Compute version, draft notes, validate, bump, tag, push version (optional), notes_overrides

Before running an action, read its file in actions/, not only the table or assets.

Transversal rules

  • Versions follow semver major.minor.patch strictly. No suffixes unless explicitly requested.
  • Tags are annotated (git tag -a), never lightweight.
  • Release notes are mandatory and follow assets/release-template.md.
  • Always ask the user to validate the version, notes, and impacted files before tagging.
  • Never --force push tags. Use --force-with-lease only when explicitly required.
  • The bump commit only includes version-manager files (e.g. package.json, pyproject.toml).

Assets

  • assets/release-template.md: Release notes template.
Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
