publish-release

publish-release is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Byggarepop/dotnet-mcp-orchestrator. It costs 63 tokens per session (755 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A release workflow for McpOrchestrator, a software project that connects AI agents to tools. It prepares a version change, creates a tag, and starts publishing to GitHub Releases, NuGet, and the MCP Registry.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to choose the next version, update the project and changelog, create the bump pull request, and publish a McpOrchestrator release.
Why use it?
It removes the need to coordinate version files, release notes, tags, and several publishing destinations by hand. It also checks that release notes and the main branch are ready first.

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

publish-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 12d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 72 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Publishing a McpOrchestrator release

The release is tag-driven: a vX.Y.Z tag on main triggers release.yml, which builds and tests on three OSes, produces Native-AOT binaries, creates the GitHub Release, publishes to NuGet (trusted publishing), and updates the MCP Registry listing. Your job is only to get the version bump onto main and push the tag.

Preconditions — check before touching anything

  1. CHANGELOG.md has a ## [Unreleased] section that actually describes the changes being released. Feature PRs are supposed to write their entries there; if it is missing or empty, STOP and write it first (from git log <last-tag>..main) — the release notes are extracted from this section, matched to the tag.
  2. main is green (the merged PRs passed CI) and your checkout is clean.
  3. Pick the version by semver against the [Unreleased] content: breaking → major, feature → minor, fixes only → patch.

Step 1 — the bump PR (exactly two files)

git checkout main && git pull
git checkout -b bump-X.Y.Z
  • McpOrchestrator/McpOrchestrator.csproj: <Version>X.Y.Z.
  • CHANGELOG.md: rename ## [Unreleased]## [X.Y.Z] - <today's date>.
  • Nothing else. Do NOT use git add -A (it sweeps untracked local files in); add the two files by name. Commit message: Bump version to X.Y.Z — no setup instructions, no Claude-Session: trailer (Co-Authored-By: is fine).

Open the PR and squash-merge it. Branch protection requires a review, so the merge needs the admin override — get the user's explicit go-ahead, then:

gh pr merge <n> --squash --delete-branch --admin

Step 2 — tag and deploy

Tag only a commit that is on main, never a branch:

git checkout main && git pull    # must now contain the bump commit
git tag vX.Y.Z && git push origin vX.Y.Z

The tag push starts the release workflow (~8 minutes). Watch it:

gh run list --limit 1
gh run watch <run-id> --exit-status

Step 3 — verify

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.
