release

release is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from xobotyi/cc-foundry. It costs 55 tokens per session (1,261 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A release-management skill for cc-foundry plugins, which are add-ons distributed through GitHub. It treats GitHub release notes as the changelog and connects plugin version changes with published releases.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for detecting plugin version changes, preparing release notes, creating one release per changed plugin, and publishing releases after pushes to master.
Why use it?
A version bump pushed to the main branch can be incomplete if the matching release and notes are missing.

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 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 4d 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 — 104 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Plugin Releases

Every plugin version bump that lands on master ships with a GitHub release. The release notes are the plugin's changelog — there are no CHANGELOG.md files (see docs/adr/0005). A pushed version bump without a release is an incomplete ship.

When to Release

  • After every push to master, check the pushed range for plugin version bumps; create one release per plugin whose version changed.
  • The user's authorization to push covers release creation — do not ask a second time.
  • Repo-level changes that bump no plugin version (ADRs, root docs, .dev/ tooling, this skill) get no release.
  • Several plugins bumped in one push → one release each.

Identify What to Release

  1. Find bumped plugins in the pushed range: git diff <old-origin-head>..origin/master -- '*/plugin.json'. When the old head is unknown, compare each plugin's plugin.json version against its latest <plugin>-v* tag from gh release list.
  2. For each bumped plugin, resolve:
    • the pushed commit that changed its plugin.json version — the release target
    • the previous release tag <plugin>-v*, if any — the notes range and compare-link anchor
  3. Collect source material: git log <prev-tag>..<target> -- plugins/<name>/ plus the diff of that range. For a first release, use the commits of the bump itself.

Tag and Title Scheme

  • Tag<plugin>-v<X.Y.Z>, e.g. the-coder-v1.5.0
  • Title<plugin> v<X.Y.Z>, e.g. the-coder v1.5.0
  • Target — the pushed commit that landed the version bump, as its full 40-character SHA. GitHub rejects an abbreviated SHA with HTTP 422 Validation Failed and the misleading trio tag_name is not a valid tag, Release.target_commitish is invalid, Published releases must have a valid tag. Resolve it with git rev-parse <short-sha>; a branch name also works.
  • Never run git taggh release create creates the tag on the remote at publish time.

Release Notes

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 is a skill published in the GitHub repository xobotyi/cc-foundry (20 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 55 tokens to every session and 1,261 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-30.
