release

A release workflow for publishing a new software version. It follows Semantic Versioning, where major, minor, and patch numbers describe the scale of changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when you need to increase a version number, cut a release, or create a GitHub release for supported Rust, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, or plugin projects.
Why use it?
It removes the need to remember and perform each release step manually, including updating the changelog, committing, pushing, and creating the release.

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.

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

Or install claudius, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 30 skills, 8 agents, 2 hooks.

Per session 104 Skills are progressive disclosure: only the name and description are preloaded; the body loads when the skill is used.

Origin unknown No closer match found in the catalogue.
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 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.

Changes

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.
