release-check

release-check is a skill for Claude Code from MotWakorb/ai-agent-dev-team. It costs 40 tokens per session (1,320 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A pre-release checklist that checks whether a software version is actually ready to ship, beyond merely checking whether mechanical release conditions are met.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before releasing a version, tag, or branch to check sprint bugs, verification work, reviews, and explicit project-owner approval.
Why use it?
It catches open serious bugs, unfinished verification, and pending reviews that automated release triggers may miss.

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-check 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 7d 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 Readiness Check

Release-execution agents fire on mechanical triggers ("PRs merged, branch protection on"). This skill validates the semantic state mechanical triggers miss: are there open P0/P1 bugs the release would skip, verification agents still running, PRs awaiting review? The PO is the decider; this skill produces the checklist.

See _shared/orchestration.md §"Pre-Release Semantic Checks" for the underlying rule.

Model Selection

This skill runs as the orchestrator — no persona dispatches. Model inherits from the parent. If a specific item on the checklist needs a persona's read ("is this CVE release-blocking at our tier?"), spawn that persona separately at sonnet.

Preflight

  1. Identify the release. Version, tag, or branch. If the PO invoked /release-check 0.17.0, use that. If bare, ask.
  2. Identify sprint scope. Look for docs/sprint-scope.md, SPRINT.md, or a label convention in the bead system. If unclear, ask: "What's the sprint label or milestone for this release?"
  3. Identify the bead system. Default: bd if bd list succeeds. Otherwise, ask the PO how to query open bugs.

Process

Step 1: Query open bugs in sprint scope

bd list --status open --priority 0 --label sprint:<sprint>
bd list --status open --priority 1 --label sprint:<sprint>

Adjust syntax for the actual bead system. Record counts and IDs per priority.

Step 2: Check in-flight verification agents

Identify any agents the orchestrator spawned for QA, security review, code review, or test verification that are still running against artifacts this release would include. Record agent IDs and what they're verifying.

Step 3: Check open PRs targeting the release branch

gh pr list --search "is:open base:<release-branch>" --json number,title,reviewDecision,statusCheckRollup

Open PRs targeting the release branch are decisions the release would skip. Record numbers and states.

Step 4: Check security gate state

If the project uses CodeQL or similar, verify the last scan on the release branch is green. If gated to main only, note that the release-cut PR to main is the validation point.

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-check is a skill published in the GitHub repository MotWakorb/ai-agent-dev-team (2 stars, last pushed 25d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 40 tokens to every session and 1,320 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. 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.
