iflow-version-bump

A workflow for increasing a project's version number according to its release rules, using either a version written in pyproject.toml or a version derived from a Git tag.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before landing work when a project needs a patch, minor, or other version bump.
Why use it?
It prevents version changes from being guessed or handled inconsistently before a release.

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

iflow-version-bump 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 2d 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.

issue-flow — version bump

Use this skill to bump the project version before landing work (often invoked from /iflow-close) — either at a specific level, or with the default rule below when none is given. What "bump" means depends on the release strategy, so resolve that first.

MODEL & EXECUTION DIRECTIVE

Profile: economy — Prioritize speed and token economy over deep reasoning.

In Cursor: use Auto or a fast model before invoking this step.

Keep scope tight to what this step requires.

CLI fast path (optional). If the issue-flow CLI is on PATH, run issue-flow agent version-plan [--bump <level>] --json. It detects the strategy from pyproject.toml, reads the latest tag, does the PEP 440 next-version arithmetic, and returns the exact commands — read-only, it never edits files or creates tags. The this-project.md release section still wins over its detection: when the payload says brief_release_section: "filled", read the section and follow it. If the CLI is missing or errors, fall back to the manual steps below.

Resolve the release strategy first

In order — stop at the first that answers:

  1. .issueflows/04-designs-and-guides/this-project.md — if its "Release & version bump" section is filled in, follow it verbatim. It is the project's own documentation and beats every default below.
  2. Detect from pyproject.toml:
    • dynamic = ["version"] under [project], together with a tag-driven backend ([tool.setuptools_scm], hatch-vcs in the build requires, versioningit, or similar) → git-tag derived strategy.
    • a static version = "..." under [project]static version (uv) strategy.
  3. Neither (no pyproject.toml, or no version at all) → skip the bump, explain why, and continue the rest of the flow (for example /iflow-close) without failing.

Record what you learn (self-healing). When the strategy came from detection or from the user explaining it — i.e. not from this-project.md — add or fill in the "Release & version bump" section of .issueflows/04-designs-and-guides/this-project.md with a short description of the strategy and the exact commands, so no future session has to rediscover it. The brief is user-owned and never overwritten by issue-flow update, so the note is durable.

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.

iflow-version-bump is a skill published in the GitHub repository jepegit/issue-flow (4 stars, last pushed 19d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 34 tokens to every session and 1,780 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
