release-status

release-status is a skill for Claude Code from flurdy/agent-skills. It costs 56 tokens per session (2,155 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A read-only dashboard for showing what can be proved about a project's release state. A release is the process of getting code from development into production; the dashboard covers pending pushes, CI, deployment progress, ordering blockers, and optional feature toggles.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to check the release situation across services or inspect one service before starting a release-watch or release-management workflow.
Why use it?
It gives a quick release snapshot without prompting, pushing code, or changing project state. It reports only information supported by the project's release digest.

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

release-status 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 5d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (tests/test-skill-contract.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.

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.

Release Status

A read-only snapshot of release state across a project's services. It is the passive sibling of /release-manager: show only states supported by available project evidence, take no action, and ask no questions.

When to Use

  • A quick "what's the release situation right now" glance
  • Before starting /watch-release, to see the baseline
  • To inspect what /release-manager could evaluate without being prompted

For the interactive gatekeeper, use /release-manager. For a deep gate on one service, use /ready-to-release <service>.

Usage

/release-status                 # all services
/release-status dispatch        # one service

Instructions

  1. Gather the project digest. Run the shared mechanical digest and pass through any service argument:

    ./scripts/release-digest
    

    The digest is the required project adapter. If it is missing, exits nonzero, omits the service header, or is malformed, print one bounded _Release status unavailable: <reason>_ line and stop. Do not guess from project files or invoke a provider directly.

    Parse its ANSI-free sections:

    • ---META---: context=<name>, ciProvider=<circleci|github-actions|cloud-build|none>, and ci=<available|partial|unavailable>. Provider identity is diagnostic only; decision and rendering logic use normalized fields below and never branch by provider.
    • ---SERVICES---: one pipe-delimited row per service after this exact header: service|unpushed|uncommitted|ci|ciBranch|gitBranch|head|deploy|tag|age|ciRevision|ciExpectedRevision.
      • unpushed is commits ahead of upstream; uncommitted is true|false; head is local HEAD.
      • ci is success|failed|running|error|unknown. Treat it as unknown for display when ciBranch != gitBranch, either revision is -, or ciRevision != ciExpectedRevision. A provider's branch-only or stale green is not exact evidence.
      • deploy, tag, and age are optional deployment observations. An N/M value and cron/cron:rollout are observable; unknown, notfound, not-applicable, and - are not evidence of deployment state.
    • ---TOGGLES---: optional FLAG=value lines. Use them only when the optional manifest context in step 2 declares toggle policy.

What ships with it

1 file 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.
