A release command for a JavaScript package published through npm, the registry used to distribute JavaScript software. It updates the version, builds and checks the project, publishes it, and installs the result locally.

Use it to make patch, minor, major, or release-candidate versions, run a full pre-release check, publish to npm, and refresh the local installation.

It groups the repeated release steps into one controlled process, reducing the chance of publishing an unbuilt or untested version.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00017	$0.04729
Opus 5	$0.00009	$0.02364
Sonnet 5	$0.00003	$0.00946
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00473

Security

Grade A, and why

publish scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (fingerprint.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Expected in a hook, worth knowing in a rule or an instructions file.

/publish - Version Bump, Build, Test & Publish

Automated release pipeline for moflo. Bumps version, commits, builds, tests, runs doctor, publishes to npm, and installs the new version locally.

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Usage

/publish              # patch bump, default mode (skips CI-covered gates)
/publish minor        # minor bump (4.8.56 → 4.9.0)
/publish major        # major bump (4.8.56 → 5.0.0)
/publish -rc          # patch RC bump (4.8.56 → 4.8.57-rc.1)
/publish minor -rc    # minor RC bump (4.8.56 → 4.9.0-rc.1)
/publish --check      # full pre-flight (lint + test + smoke + everything)
/publish -ch          # short form of --check
/publish minor -ch    # combine: full pre-flight on a minor bump

--check / -ch flag (presence-only)

Default (flag absent): runs build + doctor + trigger-based manual checks only. Skips local lint/test/smoke because lint+test are covered by ci.yml on every PR + push to main, and cross-platform smoke is dispatched as part of this skill (Step 8.5 below) — the release-smoke.yml workflow runs the full 3-OS matrix on the exact commit about to be published.

With --check or -ch (any presence): runs the full pre-flight from pre-publish-rules.md — lint, build, test, doctor (strict), local clean smoke, local populated smoke, and a forced full walk of every manual gate. Use this for publishes that didn't go through a green PR, risky releases, or when you want belt-and-suspenders on the local box in addition to the CI matrix.

The flag is presence-only. --check and -ch both set it to true. There is no --check=true / --check=false syntax — absence means false.

Step-by-Step Procedure

Step 0: Parse Arguments

Default bump type is patch if not specified
-rc flag: produce a release candidate
--check or -ch (presence): set CHECK_MODE=true. Otherwise CHECK_MODE=false.
Determine the new version string:
- Without -rc: Use npm version <patch|minor|major> --no-git-tag-version
- With -rc: Calculate manually:
  - If current version is already an RC of the same bump level (e.g., 4.8.57-rc.3), increment the RC number (→ 4.8.57-rc.4)
  - Otherwise, bump the base version and append -rc.1 (e.g., 4.8.56 → 4.8.57-rc.1)
  - Write with: npm version <new-version> --no-git-tag-version

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.

publish is a skill published in the GitHub repository eric-cielo/moflo (18 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 4,729 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (runs shell commands). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
