A procedure for preparing and publishing a milestone release. A release is a specific published version of the software, and a milestone groups the work planned for that version.

Use it to cut a milestone release, prepare JavaScript and Python version updates, create the release merge request, and publish the GitHub Release.

It coordinates version changes, audit work, preparation pull requests, the main-branch merge, the release record, and the final GitHub publication.

Per session 55 Skills are progressive disclosure: only the name and description are preloaded; the body loads when the skill is used.

When invoked 10,392 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Security scan A 1 finding. A grade says what 26 rules found in the file — not that it is safe.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00055	$0.10392
Opus 5.5	$0.00022	$0.04157
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00011	$0.02078
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.01039

Security

Grade A, and why

release scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 yesterday.

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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

The source is not reproduced here

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

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.
