cut-release

cut-release is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from V-Songbird/foundry. It costs 39 tokens per session (962 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A release procedure for publishing a specifically requested Foundry plugin edition from the correct platform branch and catalog. It verifies the edition, version owner, repository revision, README updates, and release checks before publishing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when preparing or publishing an explicit Claude or Codex plugin release, including its metadata, catalog entry, documentation, and validation.
Why use it?
It prevents releasing the wrong platform, using mismatched versions, or pointing a catalog at an unverified commit. It also keeps Claude and Codex package rules separate.

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 today.

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

Release a Foundry plugin edition

Use this workflow only for an explicit release request. Establish the plugin, edition and intended version from that request and the current repository state. If the edition is ambiguous, resolve it before writing metadata. Running in a particular assistant does not by itself choose the edition being released.

Sources of truth

Edition Plugin metadata Catalog Version owner
Claude <plugin>/.claude-plugin/plugin.json on Claude .claude-plugin/marketplace.json in Foundry the Claude catalog entry
Codex <plugin>/.codex-plugin/plugin.json on Codex .agents/plugins/marketplace.json in Foundry the native plugin manifest

Both catalog entries identify the plugin repository, platform ref and full validated commit SHA. Claude's version and source.sha move together. A Codex release updates its native version and then pins that exact integrated commit; do not introduce a Claude-style version field into the Codex catalog.

Hush/Codex is not installable until its package and validation exist. Do not create a release or add it to the catalog merely because the branch exists.

Prepare a reviewable release

  1. Locate Foundry and the intended plugin checkout. Check its branch, HEAD, working tree and published refs. Confirm its physical working directory with git rev-parse --show-toplevel; worktree-list output alone can identify a submodule's gitdir instead. Preserve other working copies and unrelated edits.
  2. Work on an appropriate non-main branch. On Windows, an existing Codex ref can prevent a codex/ prefix; use a non-conflicting maintenance branch. A plugin's main branch is its selector, never the implementation release destination.
  3. Establish the exact release surface and inspect the changes since the last published pin for this edition. A dirty checkout is not authorization to include everything in it. Prepare the requested files and checks before requesting any genuinely missing publication approval.
  4. Write a short user-facing CHANGELOG entry and update the edition's version owner. Use the user's version when supplied; otherwise choose or clarify the bump according to the actual compatibility change. Keep unrelated metadata.
  5. Use coordinate-readmes and check the actual candidate pair. The CLI supports --pair <Claude-README> <Codex-README> and --git-pair <plugin-repo> <Claude-candidate-ref> <Codex-candidate-ref>. Shared changes need both candidates; model-specific measurements must retain their own evidence. Missing benchmarks stay explicitly unmeasured.
  6. Run the relevant plugin, packaging, documentation and maintenance checks. Read the edition's compatibility/validation guide. Do not run a Claude hook canary against a Codex package, invent hook events, or treat unit tests as installed activation. Paid benchmarks and installations need their own scope.

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.
