autobot: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/autobot-release/SKILL.md

autobot-release is a skill for Claude Code from crystal-autobot/autobot. It costs 19 tokens per session (507 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A release checklist for Crystal projects that follows EVALinux standards. It covers version numbers, test and build checks, changelogs, commits, and signed Git tags.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check a project before release, update its version, create a signed tag, write conventional commits, and push the release tags to Git.
Why use it?
It reduces missed release steps and makes versions and changes easier to track. Semantic Versioning, the common major/minor/patch numbering scheme, is used to describe the impact of changes.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/.

This is crystal-autobot/autobot's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on autobot 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 autobot configures →

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is ./bin/ameba # No warnings or failures.

Reuse

Borrowing it

Nothing to install: this file belongs to crystal-autobot/autobot. Take a copy, put it at the same path in your own repository, and replace the rules that are about this project with yours.

Copy the file

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Skill instructs the agent to omit warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Stripping safety caveats hides risk from the user and is a common jailbreak preamble.
    Fix: Remove instructions that suppress warnings, disclaimers, or ethical commentary. Let the agent surface safety-relevant caveats to the user.

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

autobot-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.

What it actually says

Release Workflow

Prerequisites

Ensure all checks pass before releasing:

crystal spec      # All tests must pass
./bin/ameba       # No warnings or failures
make release      # Build must succeed

Version Bump

Follow Semantic Versioning (SemVer):

  • MAJOR - Breaking changes (incompatible API changes)
  • MINOR - New features (backward compatible)
  • PATCH - Bug fixes (backward compatible)

Update version in:

  • shard.yml (Crystal standard)
  • Git tag

Git Commands

# 1. Update version in shard.yml

# 2. Commit version bump
git add shard.yml
git commit -m "chore(release): bump version to 1.2.3"

# 3. Create signed tag (requires GPG key)
git tag -s v1.2.3 -m "Release v1.2.3"

# 4. Push with tags
git push origin main --follow-tags

Conventional Commits

Use throughout development:

  • feat: - New feature
  • fix: - Bug fix
  • docs: - Documentation only
  • style: - Formatting, missing semicolons, etc.
  • refactor: - Code change that neither fixes bug nor adds feature
  • perf: - Performance improvement
  • test: - Adding tests
  • chore: - Build process or auxiliary tool changes

Format:

type(scope): description

[optional body]

[optional footer]

GitHub Release

Create release via GitHub CLI:

gh release create v1.2.3 \
  --title "Release v1.2.3" \
  --verify-tag

Or manually:

  1. Go to GitHub Releases
  2. Click "Draft a new release"
  3. Choose the signed tag
  4. Add release notes
  5. Publish release

When to Use

Use this skill when:

  • Preparing a new release
  • Creating version tags
  • Bumping version numbers
  • Publishing to GitHub

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.
