Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00596 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00298 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00119 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00060 |
Grade A, and why
release-governed 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 85 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

- REQ-217: Agent Permissions Check
- REQ-220: Policy Guardrails
- REQ-244: Context Window Sizing
- REQ-245: Live Context Fill Indicator
- REQ-246: Auto Context Compression
- REQ-247: Hard Context Ceiling
- REQ-065: GitHub Release Creation
- REQ-066: PyPI Deployment

Core Principle
The release-governed profile is designed for agents operating in release management environments. It ensures compliance with Specsmith governance while managing the complex requirements of software releases across multiple platforms.
Profile Characteristics
Required Skills
- preflight-gate
- governed-agent-loop
- requirement-author
- testcase-author
- traceability-auditor
- context-pack-compiler
- token-budget-auditor
- skill-composer

Environment-Specific Features
- Release management environment integration
- Context window optimization for release processes
- Compliance with release management policies
- Integration with multiple platform release systems (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, PyPI, etc.)
Implementation Details
Release-Specific Execution
- Leverage release management capabilities for version control and deployment
- Optimize context windows to fit release process constraints
- Apply Specsmith governance rules within release environments
- Maintain traceability between release actions and Specsmith requirements
Context Management
- Optimize context for release management requirements
- Apply release-specific compression techniques
- Ensure context fits within release constraints while maintaining traceability
- Track release management usage and performance metrics
Configuration
Default Behavior
By default, the release-governed profile:
- Integrates with multiple release platforms (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, PyPI)
- Optimizes context for release management processes
- Maintains full Specsmith governance compliance
- Tracks release management metrics
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.

release-governed is a skill published in the GitHub repository layer1labs/specsmith (7 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 596 tokens. 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.

changelog-generator
Generate changelogs from git commits. Use when user says "generate changelog", "update changelog", "what changed since last release", or before preparing a new release.
release
Use when the user asks to release, publish, or version-bump harness-score — covers the npm package, the Cursor plugin, and the docs, in the right order.
deploy
Use when the user asks to deploy or release the sample app to production; covers the full checklist from tag to smoke test.
arch-audit
Audit Claude Code architecture files against Anthropic docs and release notes, and verify internal ecosystem consistency. Run on demand to maintain compliance, catch new features, and keep the context system clean.
skill-dev
Code quality audit: detect cross-module coupling, N+1 queries, dead exports, antipatterns, over-large components. Cross-checks against refactoring backlog.
accessibility-audit
Unified accessibility audit - axe-core WCAG 2.2 scan, APCA contrast measurement, static a11y checks (aria-label, tabindex, form labels, focus visibility, onClick on non-interactive). Static and live modes.
