release

release is a skill for Claude Code from XRenSiu/claude-code-forge. It costs 200 tokens per session (1,624 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A release workflow turns a merged change into a recorded delivery: a version tag, changelog entry, release notes, and post-deployment verification. Semantic Versioning is a versioning convention that uses major, minor, and patch numbers to describe breaking changes, features, and fixes.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare a release, choose or check a version, write release notes, tag the merge, record rollback and escaped-defect paths, and verify a deployment.
Why use it?
Merging code is not the same as delivering it: users may lack release information, rollback steps may be missing, and a deployment may be declared complete without checking it. The workflow keeps the version and changelog aligned and requires verification before completion.

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 yesterday.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/verify_release.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 合入不是终点,交付才是

产物:CHANGELOG.md 新条目、git tag vX.Y.Zreleases/vX.Y.Z.md(发布说明:变更 / 验证 / 回滚 / 逃逸缺陷入口)、 部署后验证记录。本文件写:发布在流水线里是什么、什么算交付完成、原语与出口、不可逆动作前的门。 用什么部署系统是你的份额(或仓库的事)。

缺口(Judgment + Control + Capability)

deletion 测试:撤掉本 skill,引擎在合入后说"完成"就停;没有版本、没有 changelog、部署了没验、出问题不知道 怎么回滚、线上反馈无处登记——世界层只在 G1 一处校准。缺的是产物序判据、不可逆动作(tag / push tag / deploy)前的确认门、和把机械半边编译掉的验证器。

世界(Σ)

  • 版本从提交推导(Conventional Commits):范围内有 feat!/BREAKING CHANGE → major;有 feat → minor; 只有 fix/perf/其他 → patch。--bump auto 就是这个规则;人可覆盖但要在发布说明写为什么。
  • tag 与 changelog 是同一事实的两个投影CHANGELOG.md## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD 与 tag vX.Y.Z 必须一致。
  • 不可逆序(Σ 第 2 格):push tag、deploy 到生产、删旧版本——这些之前必须有回滚方案与确认。
  • 部署后验证先于宣布完成--verify-cmd(健康检查 / 冒烟)绿了才是 release.done=true;红了 → 回滚方案生效。
  • 逃逸缺陷登记入口:发布说明末尾固定一段"发现问题?/issue --escape 并引用本版本"——线上反馈是世界层唯一的 外部校准源(参考文档 L8)。
  • 关于用户的 Σ:"发一下"= 全套(tag + changelog + notes + verify);"只打 tag"= 仍要 changelog 条目一致; "先不部署"= release.skipped_reason 留痕,不算交付完成。

判据(φ)

  • verify_release.py --version X.Y.Z:CHANGELOG 含该版本条目且日期合法;tag 存在(或 --pre-tag 模式下待打)且指向 merge sha;releases/vX.Y.Z.md 含 Changes / Verification / Rollback / Escape 四段且 Rollback 非空;版本 ≥ 上一 tag; bump 与提交类型一致(--bump auto 时)。
  • 部署验证:--verify-cmd exit 0(或注明 unverified: <原因>,此时 release.done 不能为 true)。
  • 残差:回滚方案是否真的可执行(人判)。

原语(Π)

  • scripts/verify_release.py --version X.Y.Z [--changelog CHANGELOG.md] [--notes releases/vX.Y.Z.md] [--base <prev tag>] [--bump auto] [--pre-tag] —— exit 0 / 1 / 2。打 tag 前必须跑--pre-tag),宣布完成前再跑一次(不带 --pre-tag)。
  • assets/release_notes_template.md · assets/changelog_entry_template.md
  • references/semver-and-rollback.md —— bump 规则、回滚方案的最小要素、部署验证清单。
  • git tag -a vX.Y.Z -m …git push origin vX.Y.Zgh release create(存在性声明)。

门(γ)

  • 打 tag / push tag / deploy 前给人看:展示版本、changelog 条目、发布说明、将执行的命令;确认再做。--dry-run 只产文件不打 tag 不部署。
  • done_whenverify_release.py exit 0 ∧ verify-cmd 绿 ∧ sdlc_state.py set release.version=… release.tag=… release.done=true
  • /sdlc 里:advance archive 要求 release.done=truerelease.skipped_reason

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 XRenSiu/claude-code-forge (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 200 tokens to every session and 1,624 once invoked, about $0.0010 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 2026-09-05.
