A procedure for publishing Moraine software releases from a version number. It covers version updates, the release pull request, repository tag, GitHub release, workflow checks, and PyPI package verification.

Cutting and publishing a Moraine release, updating managed versions, creating release notes, checking automated workflows, and verifying the PyPI package.

It keeps the project's release steps coordinated and requires public evidence that each part succeeded before the release is considered complete.

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	$0.00115	$0.02465
Opus 5	$0.00057	$0.01233
Sonnet 5	$0.00023	$0.00493
Haiku 4.5	$0.00012	$0.00247

Security

Grade C, and why

release scanned grade C with 2 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/bump-version.py, scripts/tests/test_bump_version.py), 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.

Downloads and executes remote codehighSupply chain

curl | sh runs whatever the server returns today, which is not necessarily what it returned when this was reviewed.

curl -fsSL -H 'Cache-Control: no-cache' https://pypi.org/pypi/moraine-cli/json | python3 -c 'import json,sys; d=json.load(sys.stdin); print(d["info"]["version"]); print(len(d["releases"].get("'"$VERSION"'", [])))'

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

- `curl -fsSL "https://pypi.org/pypi/moraine-cli/$VERSION/json"` fails.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 275 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Release

Run Moraine releases end to end with the shared moraine-dev contributor workflow. Invoke it as $moraine-dev:release X.Y.Z in Codex or /release X.Y.Z in Kiro. Both forms mean: publish vX.Y.Z, not just prepare a plan.

Goal Contract

In Codex, make the release a durable goal before doing release work:

If create_goal is available and there is no active goal, call it with: Cut Moraine vX.Y.Z, including version bump PR, merged code, annotated repo tag, GitHub release notes, release workflow verification, and PyPI package verification.
If a goal already exists, continue inside it and keep it current with update_plan.
Do not call update_goal(status="complete") until all public release evidence exists: merged PR, pushed tag, successful workflow, GitHub release body/assets, and PyPI moraine-cli artifacts.

In Kiro, maintain an explicit checklist in the session. Do not mark the release complete until the same public release evidence exists.

Preconditions

Normalize the argument first:

X.Y.Z and vX.Y.Z both mean VERSION=X.Y.Z and TAG=vX.Y.Z.
Refuse ambiguous input, missing versions, or a target older than the latest stable GitHub release.

Before editing:

Read the active AGENTS.md.
Use Moraine session search if available. Start broad, then narrow:
- release process Moraine PyPI GitHub tag
- v0.5.4 release workflow pypi release notes
- package-moraine-release release-moraine gh release edit
Inspect .github/workflows/release-moraine.yml.
Read .claude/skills/release-notes/SKILL.md only as the house-format reference for the GitHub release body.
Verify tooling:
- gh auth status
- git fetch origin --prune --tags
- gh repo view --json nameWithOwner,defaultBranchRef,url
Prove the target is unused:
- git tag --list "$TAG" returns nothing.
- gh release view "$TAG" fails with not found.
- curl -fsSL "https://pypi.org/pypi/moraine-cli/$VERSION/json" fails.

Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

release is a skill published in the GitHub repository eric-tramel/moraine (116 stars, last pushed 18d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 115 tokens to every session and 2,465 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it C with 2 findings (downloads and executes remote code, makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
