Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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 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 10d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 862 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Local overrides (read this first). Before following any instruction below, check whether .claude/.local/skills/release/overrides.md exists. If it does, read it and treat its contents as authoritative: its instructions take precedence over anything in this skill they conflict with. This is the supported way to tailor /release without forking it — overrides.md lives under .claude/.local/, which sequant update and sync never overwrite.

Release Skill

Automates the full release workflow: version bump, git tag, GitHub release, and npm publish.

Usage

/release [patch|minor|major] [--prerelease <tag>] [--soaked] [--dry-run]
  • /release - Interactive, asks for version type
  • /release patch - Patch release (1.3.1 → 1.3.2)
  • /release minor - Minor release (1.3.1 → 1.4.0)
  • /release major - Major release (1.3.1 → 2.0.0)
  • /release minor --prerelease beta - Pre-release (1.3.1 → 1.4.0-beta.0)
  • /release --dry-run - Preview without publishing
  • /release --soaked - Promote an already-published next version to latest (Step 9b); refused without this flag

Pre-flight Checks

Run ALL checks before proceeding. STOP if any fails.

Git Checks

# 1. On main branch
[ "$(git branch --show-current)" = "main" ] || { echo "Not on main"; exit 1; }

# 2. Clean working tree
[ -z "$(git status --porcelain)" ] || { echo "Uncommitted changes"; exit 1; }

# 3. In sync with remote
git fetch origin
[ -z "$(git log HEAD..origin/main)" ] || { echo "Behind origin - pull first"; exit 1; }

# 4. The latest CI `push` run on main is green (red-main rule, below).
#    Filter to the CI workflow: without --workflow the newest push run can be
#    Scorecard or another workflow, and a red CI would read as green.

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.
