ralphy: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/dev-release/SKILL.md

dev-release is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from alecs5am/ralphy. It costs 61 tokens per session (765 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A release procedure for the Ralphy command-line tool across GitHub Releases, Homebrew, and npm. A command-line tool is software operated from a terminal.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check release prerequisites, prepare release notes, create the version tag, and publish the CLI with platform binaries, checksums, a Homebrew formula, and an npm package.
Why use it?
It keeps the tool’s version consistent across its distribution channels and prevents releasing only part of it.

This is alecs5am/ralphy's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on ralphy itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything ralphy configures →

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

dev-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 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.

Release the Ralphy CLI

This skill ships the agent-facing CLI in this repository. It never releases the marketing site, public docs site, desktop app, or unattended farm runtime.

Repositories

  • CLI: current repository, alecs5am/ralphy.
  • Public docs: sibling ../ralphy-docs, alecs5am/ralphy-docs.
  • Marketing and library: sibling ../ralphy-web, alecs5am/ralphy-web.
  • Desktop: sibling ../ralphy-desktop, alecs5am/ralphy-desktop.
  • Unattended automation: sibling ../ralphy-farm, alecs5am/ralphy-farm.

Only the CLI repository receives the vX.Y.Z release tag. If a CLI change affects public documentation, update and push ralphy-docs before tagging the CLI. Web, desktop, and farm changes follow their own release processes.

Release contract

One version must reach all three CLI channels:

  1. GitHub Release with platform binaries and SHA256SUMS.
  2. alecs5am/homebrew-tap formula.
  3. @alecs5am/ralphy on npm.

Never amend or replace an existing release. Never publish only one channel.

Procedure

  1. Confirm the current branch is main, the worktree is clean, and gh auth status plus npm whoami identify the expected maintainer.

  2. Read scripts/release/last-release-commit, the latest v* tag, and commits since that baseline. Propose the semver bump and grouped release notes.

  3. Inspect the diff for public-doc impact. If needed, update ../ralphy-docs, validate docs.json, commit, and push that repository separately.

  4. Run the CLI verification suite:

    bun run lint
    bun test --timeout 45000 tests/unit tests/integration
    bun run build:bin:current
    gitleaks detect --source .
    
  5. After explicit user approval, update these version sources in lockstep:

    • package.json
    • cli/lib/version.ts
    • npm/package.json
    • the current-version line in AGENTS.md
  6. Commit chore(release): vX.Y.Z, tag that commit vX.Y.Z, and push the commit and tag. Do not create the GitHub Release manually; the release workflow owns binaries, checksums, and the release object.

  7. Watch the GitHub Actions release workflow to success.

  8. Run scripts/release/update-brew-tap.sh vX.Y.Z and scripts/release/publish-npm.sh X.Y.Z, then verify both registries resolve the new version.

  9. Update scripts/release/last-release-commit in a separate trailing commit so the next release has an exact baseline.

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.
