epistemic-protocols: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/release/SKILL.md

release is a skill for Claude Code from jongwony/epistemic-protocols. It costs 14 tokens per session (2,566 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project-specific procedure for preparing a calendar-versioned release, where the version is based on the date. It creates a draft release with a written summary before the generated commit notes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating date-based Git tags, triggering release packaging through CI, adding a release narrative, and opening a draft GitHub release.
Why use it?
It organizes tagging, packaging, release-note preparation, and manual review without publishing the release automatically.

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 4d 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 (project-local)

Creates a CalVer tagged release with a hand-written narrative prepended to the body CI generates via scripts/package.js. Overrides the global /release skill for this repo.

Purpose

  • Push CalVer tag → CI (release.yml) runs scripts/package.js to build ZIPs + produce dist/release-notes.md, then gh release create --draft --notes-file attaches it
  • Prepend a hand-written narrative block to the script-generated body so the release surfaces "why this release matters" before the commit list
  • Leave publish (draft → published) to the user for manual review

Preconditions

  • Working tree clean, on main (or user-specified branch)
  • gh authenticated with push access to the target remote (fork or upstream)
  • Node 22+ on PATH (packaging requires zlib.crc32)

Flow

Phase 1: Tag decision

  • Previous tag: git describe --tags --abbrev=0 (excludes drafts, gives last tagged commit)
  • Today: derive YYYY.MM.DD from current date
  • Candidate tag: v{YYYY.MM.DD}, or v{YYYY.MM.DD}.{N+1} if same-day tag exists
  • If latest tag is already today's and is Draft (not published), ask whether to re-tag (delete + recreate) or increment .N

Phase 2: Tag push

  • git tag <tag>
  • git push origin <tag> → triggers release.yml

Phase 3: Wait for CI draft

  • Poll gh run list --workflow=release.yml --limit 1 --json status,conclusion,databaseId every 5s, max 12 attempts (60s total)
  • When status=completed and conclusion=success, fetch draft: gh release view <tag> --json body,url
  • If still in_progress after 60s: surface run URL and ask user whether to keep waiting
  • If CI fails: surface logs via gh run view <id> --log-failed, do not proceed to Phase 4. Remediation: fix the cause and retag with .N increment, or clean up the pushed tag with git push origin :refs/tags/<tag> before retrying

Phase 4: Narrative drafting

Analyze commits since previous tag — each line is one merged PR; read a PR's own commits with git log <merge>^1..<merge>^2 when its detail is needed:

git log --oneline --first-parent <prev-tag>..HEAD

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.
