warren: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/release/SKILL.md

release is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jayminwest/warren. It costs 39 tokens per session (1,293 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A release workflow for the warren project. A release is a published software version, and this workflow checks the project, updates release records, pushes the changes, and watches publishing and deployment finish.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit release issues, update the version and changelog, create the release, publish packages and container images, deploy to Google Kubernetes Engine, and verify announcements.
Why use it?
It coordinates the many checks and publishing steps involved in releasing a software version, reducing the chance of stopping after only part of the process.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents; installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is jayminwest/warren's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on warren itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything warren configures →

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 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 2mo 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.

Release

Prepare a new warren release, push it, and verify the pipeline shipped it. The release does not exist when the commit lands — it exists when the Release workflow's five-job chain finishes: gates → tag → draft release → ghcr image + GKE deploy → npm publish → promote draft to final → Discord announce. This command runs everything up to the push, then watches that chain to the end.

1. Pre-flight

  • Working tree is clean, on main, up to date with origin (git status, git pull).
  • No open PRs about to auto-merge into the release commit: gh pr list --state open. If one is close to merging, either wait for it or release without it deliberately — never race it.
  • Find the last release tag: git describe --tags --abbrev=0.

2. Tracker audits (two parallel subagents)

Spawn both subagents in a single message so they run concurrently. Neither pushes — all commits ride out with the single push in step 9.

  • Seeds audit — a subagent that invokes the seeds-issue-audit skill and follows it exactly: auto-close only HIGH-confidence issues with citable evidence, run sd sync after closing, report borderline cases, never push. Have it return its two tables (auto-closed / borderline).
  • GitHub issue sweep — a subagent that lists open GitHub issues (gh issue list --state open) and verifies each against HEAD. Same discipline as the seeds audit: close an issue only when the fix is verifiably on main (name the commit or merged PR in the closing comment, gh issue close <n> --comment "..."); anything uncertain goes in a borderline table, untouched. Staleness alone never closes anything.

Hold both reports — the borderline tables go in the final summary (step 10), and confirmed-done plans feed the ROADMAP update (step 6).

3. Review changes since the last tag

  • git log <tag>..HEAD --oneline and git diff <tag>..HEAD --stat.
  • Determine the version bump level. Always use patch unless the user explicitly requests minor or major.

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.
