git-release

A release guide that uses merged Git changes to suggest a version number, draft a changelog, and prepare release commands. A changelog is a human-readable record of what changed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when shipping a release, creating a Git tag, updating CHANGELOG.md, or generating release notes from conventional commits such as feat and fix.
Why use it?
Releases are easier to get wrong when version numbers, notes, and Git tags are prepared manually. It provides a consistent way to turn completed changes into a release.

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

git-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 2d 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.

Git Release Skill

Creates releases with consistent versioning, accurate changelogs, and proper tagging.

When to Activate

Activate when:

  • A release is complete and ready to ship
  • You need to cut a release tag
  • You need to generate a CHANGELOG entry

Core Principles

  • Semver strictly: major.minor.patch
  • Conventional commits drive the version bump automatically
  • Changelog is for humans: group by type, use plain language
  • One release per tag — no force-pushing tags

Workflow

  1. Collect commitsgit log [last-tag]..HEAD --oneline
  2. Determine version bump from commits:
    • Breaking change (! or BREAKING CHANGE:) → major bump
    • feat: → minor bump
    • fix:, refactor:, perf: → patch bump
    • docs:, test:, chore: → no version bump (unless last release)
  3. Draft changelog — group commits by type
  4. Update CHANGELOG.md — prepend new version under ## Unreleased
  5. Tag and push — provide the exact commands

Conventional Commits Types

Type Version Bump Description
feat minor New feature
fix patch Bug fix
perf patch Performance improvement
refactor patch Code change, no behavior change
docs none Documentation only
test none Adding or updating tests
chore none Maintenance, dependencies
ci none CI/CD configuration
feat! or BREAKING CHANGE: major Breaking API change

Changelog Format

Follow Keep a Changelog (keepachangelog.com):

## [1.2.0] — 2024-01-15

### Added
- User authentication via JWT (feat: add JWT auth)
- Password reset via email (feat: add password reset)

### Fixed
- Token expiry calculation was off by one day (fix: correct token expiry)

### Changed
- Migrated from bcrypt to argon2 for better security (refactor: use argon2)

Release Commands

# After updating CHANGELOG.md
git add CHANGELOG.md
git commit -m "chore(release): v1.2.0"
git tag -a v1.2.0 -m "Release v1.2.0"
git push origin main --tags

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.

git-release is a skill published in the GitHub repository DVNghiem/FlowDeck (24 stars, last pushed 13d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 35 tokens to every session and 680 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
