.claude/skills/release/SKILL.md

release is a skill for Claude Code from jenreh/appkit. It costs 37 tokens per session (325 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A release procedure for increasing a project’s version and publishing a GitHub release. GitHub releases are named project versions that can include notes about changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when preparing patch, minor, or major releases, generating changelog text, and publishing the result to GitHub.
Why use it?
It turns several release tasks into one documented process and helps ensure the version, changelog, commit, tag, and published release stay aligned.

Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: allowed-tools in frontmatter. Also seen: names the AskUserQuestion tool.

This is jenreh/appkit's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on appkit 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 appkit 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Release

Ask the user which version bump to apply, then run task release:build.

Step 1 — ask

Use AskUserQuestion to ask:

Question: "Which version component should be bumped?" Header: "Version bump" Options:

  • patch — backwards-compatible bug fixes and minor improvements (Recommended)
  • minor — new backwards-compatible features
  • major — breaking changes

Step 2 — confirm current version

grep '^version = ' pyproject.toml | cut -d '"' -f2

Show the user: "Current version is X.Y.Z — bumping [choice] will release X.Y.Z+1. Proceed?"

If they say no, stop.

Step 3 — run the release

task release:build -- <choice>

Stream the output so the user can see progress. The task will:

  1. Bump the version in all tracked files
  2. Commit and push
  3. Generate an AI-written changelog from commits since the last tag
  4. Create a GitHub release with that changelog

Step 4 — report

After the task completes, show the new version and the GitHub release URL from the output.

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.
