solace-broker-mcp: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/cut-release/SKILL.md

cut-release is a skill for Claude Code from SolaceProducts/solace-broker-mcp. It costs 98 tokens per session (5,295 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A release workflow that prepares a dated changelog entry, opens a pull request, waits for it to be merged, and then creates the version tag that starts the release process. A changelog is the project's record of user-visible changes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to cut a versioned software release, including updating the changelog, preparing the release pull request, waiting for approval, and starting the automated build and publishing pipeline.
Why use it?
It removes the need to coordinate these release steps manually while keeping one human check: reviewing and merging the changelog pull request.

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

cut-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 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.

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 — 298 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Cut a release

Run the whole release from one command. Invoked with /cut-release <version> (or "cut a new v0.6.0 release").

The release pipeline (.github/workflows/release.yml) triggers on a pushed v* tag and does the heavy lifting itself — builds binaries for 4 OS/arch, pushes the multi-arch image, extracts the tagged commit's ## [X.Y.Z] CHANGELOG block, and creates the GitHub Release from it with artifacts + checksums attached. No GitHub-UI "draft release / auto-generate notes" step is needed. So cutting a release reduces to: get the dated CHANGELOG block onto main, then push the tag.

The one human checkpoint is merging the changelog PR — that is where "make sure the changelog is updated properly" happens, and it is required because main is protected and the pipeline reads the CHANGELOG from the tagged commit. Everything before and after is automatic: the merge is treated as the go-ahead, and the tag fires on merge (guarded — see Phase D).

Usage

  • /cut-release <version> — e.g. /cut-release 0.6.0 or v0.6.0.

Validate first: reject anything not matching ^v?[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+$ (stable SemVer) before any command uses the value. Then normalize once and derive both forms explicitly: strip a leading v for the bare form (0.6.0) used in the ## [0.6.0] heading and wherever the Phase D awk takes v="0.6.0"; keep the v-prefixed form (v0.6.0) for the git tag and compare-URL segments. Never pass the raw argument through un-normalized (a v0.6.0 input must not yield ## [v0.6.0] or a vv0.6.0 tag).

Preconditions: run gh auth status up front. Phases B–E (open/watch the PR, tag, report) require an authenticated gh — if it's unavailable, stop and have the operator run gh auth login before those phases. Phase A2 alone can degrade to a git log fallback when gh is missing (less precise — see A2), so preparation may proceed unauthenticated, but the release cannot be cut without gh.

Phase A — Prepare the changelog

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.
