git-release-tag

git-release-tag is a skill for Claude Code from jtprogru/bear-skills. It costs 159 tokens per session (1,184 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A release helper for Git repositories that chooses a semantic version tag, such as patch, minor, or major, from the commits since the previous tag. It also builds release notes and can create a GitHub Release after confirmation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to release a package, bump its version, create a changelog, add a Git tag, push that tag, or create a GitHub Release.
Why use it?
It removes the manual work of reviewing commits, choosing the next version, and preparing release notes. It also makes tagging consistent for single packages and monorepos, which are repositories containing multiple packages.

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

git-release-tag 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 127 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

git-release-tag — Релизный semver-тег с changelog

Цель: одной операцией провести релиз — определить версию, собрать changelog, поставить тег, при желании запушить.

Перед началом прочитай ~/.claude/rules/git-conventions.md — разделы про Semver и теги.

Шаг 1. Определи контекст репозитория

  • монорепо с несколькими SDK или одиночный пакет?
    • одиночный → v<X>.<Y>.<Z>, работаешь дальше по этому скиллу
    • монорепо → теги вида <sdk>/v<X>.<Y>.<Z> (например, sdk-go/v0.3.1)
  • если монорепо и пакет для релиза ещё не выбран — это работа git-monorepo-release: он определит состав релиза и вызовет этот скилл на каждый тег. Если тебя вызвали уже с конкретным пакетом — продолжай, тег будет <sdk>/v<X>.<Y>.<Z>

Найди последний тег:

git tag --list 'v*' --sort=-v:refname | head -5            # одиночный
git tag --list 'sdk-go/v*' --sort=-v:refname | head -5     # пер-SDK

Если тегов нет — стартуй с v0.1.0 (или <sdk>/v0.1.0).

Шаг 2. Собери коммиты с прошлого тега

git log <last-tag>..HEAD --oneline
git log <last-tag>..HEAD --pretty=format:'%h %s%n%b%n'

В монорепо отфильтруй коммиты, затрагивающие нужный SDK:

git log <last-tag>..HEAD -- sdk-go/

Шаг 3. Определи bump

Проанализируй коммиты:

есть в коммитах bump
feat!: или BREAKING CHANGE: в теле major
feat: без breaking minor
только fix:, perf:, refactor:, docs:, chore: patch
ничего значимого (только chore без изменений в коде) спросить пользователя

Если коммиты не по конвенции — покажи их пользователю и спроси, какой bump.

Шаг 4. Сформируй changelog

Группируй коммиты по type. Формат:

## v0.4.0 — 2026-05-23

### Breaking changes
- <commit subject> (`<sha>`)

### Features
- feat(scope): <subject> (`<sha>`)

### Fixes
- fix(scope): <subject> (`<sha>`)

### Other
- refactor / docs / chore — кратко

<полная дельта: git log link>

Шаг 5. Покажи и подтверди

Покажи:

  • предлагаемую версию (v0.4.0)
  • changelog
  • команды, которые будут выполнены

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.
