pre-release-check

pre-release-check is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from danikf/tik4net. It costs 145 tokens per session (4,642 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A release-readiness review for the tik4net library, checking automated gates and issues that require human judgement before tagging a version.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before alpha, beta, release-candidate, or stable releases to run checks, review version markers, and decide whether shipping is appropriate.
Why use it?
A passing command is not enough if it did not really test anything, and release problems can affect every project that depends on the library.

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

pre-release-check 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 6d 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 — 344 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Pre-release check

A release is the moment the library stops being ours and starts being somebody's dependency. This skill is the list of things worth knowing before that, split by whether a machine can decide them.

Two rules govern everything below.

A check that could not have failed has measured nothing. Before believing a green result, ask what outcome would have been red. This is not paranoia — it is how a whole class of green runs turn out to be runs that never executed. See the traps section; each entry there is a real one from this repository.

Severity is about the user, not about the finding. A wrong answer the caller cannot detect outranks a crash, which outranks anything cosmetic. A library that silently returns different data on a Czech machine is worse than one that throws.

The two lanes

Keep them apart. Mixing them is how a release checklist becomes a wall nobody reads.

Gates Reviews
Decided by a command, deterministically judgement
Failure means do not tag write it down, then decide
Where they live CI where possible, this skill otherwise this skill, usually delegated to an agent

Run the gates first — they are cheap and they can invalidate the reviews.


Part 1 — Gates

1.1 Build, tests, packages

dotnet build tik4net.sln --configuration Release -warnaserror
dotnet test tik4net.unittests/tik4net.unittests.csproj --configuration Release

Then the integration suite per the mikrotik-tests skill: a full pass on the binary API, plus the smoke subset on the other transports. For a release, run the full 11-transport matrix — this is one of the two occasions that justifies it.

Packaging is validated by CI (.github/workflows/build.yml packs all three and asserts both TFMs exist), but before a tag also unzip the .nupkg and check by eye:

  • lib/netstandard2.0/ and lib/net8.0/ each hold both tik4net.dll and tik4net.objects.dll, and the .xml doc file beside each.
  • .nuspec <dependencies> names no internal id. tik4net.core.internal appearing there means a ProjectReference lost its PrivateAssets="all", and the package will fail to restore for everyone.
  • LICENSE and README.md are inside.

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.
