Workflow

Step 1: Detect Project Configuration

1. Check for .releaserc.yml (optional config override)
2. Auto-detect version file by scanning (priority order):

- package.json (Node.js) - pyproject.toml (Python) - Cargo.toml (Rust) - marketplace.json or .claude-plugin/marketplace.json (Claude Plugin) - VERSION or version.txt (Generic)

1. Scan for changelog files using glob patterns:

- CHANGELOG*.md - HISTORY*.md - CHANGES*.md

1. Identify language of each changelog by filename suffix
2. Display detected configuration

Language Detection Rules:

Output Example:

Project detected:
  Version file: package.json (1.2.3)
  Changelogs:
    - CHANGELOG.md (en)
    - CHANGELOG.zh.md (zh)
    - CHANGELOG.ja.md (ja)

Step 2: Analyze Changes Since Last Tag

LAST_TAG=$(git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -1)
git log ${LAST_TAG}..HEAD --oneline
git diff ${LAST_TAG}..HEAD --stat

Categorize by conventional commit types:

Breaking Change Detection:

• Commit message starts with BREAKING CHANGE
• Commit body/footer contains BREAKING CHANGE:
• Removed public APIs, renamed exports, changed interfaces

If breaking changes detected, warn user: "Breaking changes detected. Consider major version bump (--major flag)."

Step 3: Determine Version Bump

Rules (in priority order):

1. User flag --major/--minor/--patch → Use specified
2. BREAKING CHANGE detected → Major bump (1.x.x → 2.0.0)
3. feat: commits present → Minor bump (1.2.x → 1.3.0)
4. Otherwise → Patch bump (1.2.3 → 1.2.4)

Display version change: 1.2.3 → 1.3.0

Step 4: Generate Multi-language Changelogs

For each detected changelog file:

1. Identify language from filename suffix
2. Detect third-party contributors:

- Check merge commits: git log ${LAST_TAG}..HEAD --merges --pretty=format:"%H %s" - For each merged PR, identify the PR author via gh pr view <number> --json author --jq '.author.login' - Compare against repo owner (gh repo view --json owner --jq '.owner.login') - If PR author ≠ repo owner → third-party contributor

1. Generate content in that language:

- Section titles in target language - Change descriptions written naturally in target language (not translated) - Date format: YYYY-MM-DD (universal) - Third-party contributions: Append contributor attribution (by @username) to the changelog entry

1. Insert at file head (preserve existing content)

Section Title Translations (built-in):

Changelog Format:

## {VERSION} - {YYYY-MM-DD}

### Features
- Description of new feature
- Description of third-party contribution (by @username)

### Fixes
- Description of fix

### Documentation
- Description of docs changes

Only include sections that have changes. Omit empty sections.

Third-Party Attribution Rules:

• Only add (by @username) for contributors who are NOT the repo owner
• Use GitHub username with @ prefix
• Place at the end of the changelog entry line
• Apply to all languages consistently (always use (by @username) format, not translated)

Multi-language Example:

English (CHANGELOG.md):

## 1.3.0 - 2026-01-22

### Features
- Add user authentication module (by @contributor1)
- Support OAuth2 login

### Fixes
- Fix memory leak in connection pool

Chinese (CHANGELOG.zh.md):

## 1.3.0 - 2026-01-22

### 新功能
- 新增用户认证模块 (by @contributor1)
- 支持 OAuth2 登录

### 修复
- 修复连接池内存泄漏问题

Japanese (CHANGELOG.ja.md):

## 1.3.0 - 2026-01-22

### 新機能
- ユーザー認証モジュールを追加 (by @contributor1)
- OAuth2 ログインをサポート

### 修正
- コネクションプールのメモリリークを修正

Step 5: Group Changes by Skill/Module

Analyze commits since last tag and group by affected skill/module:

1. Identify changed files per commit
2. Group by skill/module:

- skills/<skill-name>/* → Group under that skill - Root files (CLAUDE.md, etc.) → Group as "project" - Multiple skills in one commit → Split into multiple groups

1. For each group, identify related README updates needed

Example Grouping:

baoyu-cover-image:
  - feat: add new style options
  - fix: handle transparent backgrounds
  → README updates: options table

baoyu-comic:
  - refactor: improve panel layout algorithm
  → No README updates needed

project:
  - docs: update CLAUDE.md architecture section

Step 6: Commit Each Skill/Module Separately

For each skill/module group (in order of changes):

1. Check README updates needed:

- Scan README*.md for mentions of this skill/module - Verify options/flags documented correctly - Update usage examples if syntax changed - Update feature descriptions if behavior changed

1. Stage and commit: git add skills/<skill-name>/* git add README.md README.zh.md # If updated for this skill git commit -m "<type>(<skill-name>): <meaningful description>"
2. Commit message format:

- Use conventional commit format: <type>(<scope>): <description> - <type>: feat, fix, refactor, docs, perf, etc. - <scope>: skill name or "project" - <description>: Clear, meaningful description of changes

Example Commits:

git commit -m "feat(baoyu-cover-image): add watercolor and minimalist styles"
git commit -m "fix(baoyu-comic): improve panel layout for long dialogues"
git commit -m "docs(project): update architecture documentation"

Common README Updates Needed:

Step 7: Generate Changelog and Update Version

1. Generate multi-language changelogs (as described in Step 4)
2. Update version file:

- Read version file (JSON/TOML/text) - Update version number - Write back (preserve formatting)

Version Paths by File Type:

Step 8: User Confirmation

Before creating the release commit, ask user to confirm:

Use AskUserQuestion with two questions:

1. Version bump (single select):

- Show recommended version based on Step 3 analysis - Options: recommended (with label), other semver options - Example: 1.2.3 → 1.3.0 (Recommended), 1.2.3 → 1.2.4, 1.2.3 → 2.0.0

1. Push to remote (single select):

- Options: "Yes, push after commit", "No, keep local only"

Example Output Before Confirmation:

Commits created:
  1. feat(baoyu-cover-image): add watercolor and minimalist styles
  2. fix(baoyu-comic): improve panel layout for long dialogues
  3. docs(project): update architecture documentation

Changelog preview (en):
  ## 1.3.0 - 2026-01-22
  ### Features
  - Add watercolor and minimalist styles to cover-image
  ### Fixes
  - Improve panel layout for long dialogues in comic

Ready to create release commit and tag.

Step 9: Create Release Commit and Tag

After user confirmation:

1. Stage version and changelog files: git add <version-file> git add CHANGELOG*.md
2. Create release commit: git commit -m "chore: release v{VERSION}"
3. Create tag: git tag v{VERSION}
4. Push if user confirmed (Step 8): git push origin main git push origin v{VERSION}

Note: Do NOT add Co-Authored-By line. This is a release commit, not a code contribution.

Post-Release Output:

Release v1.3.0 created.

Commits:
  1. feat(baoyu-cover-image): add watercolor and minimalist styles
  2. fix(baoyu-comic): improve panel layout for long dialogues
  3. docs(project): update architecture documentation
  4. chore: release v1.3.0

Tag: v1.3.0
Status: Pushed to origin  # or "Local only - run git push when ready"

Example Usage

/release-skills              # Auto-detect version bump
/release-skills --dry-run    # Preview only
/release-skills --minor      # Force minor bump
/release-skills --patch      # Force patch bump
/release-skills --major      # Force major bump (with confirmation)

When to Use

Trigger this skill when user requests:

• "release", "发布", "create release", "new version", "新版本"
• "bump version", "update version", "更新版本"
• "prepare release"
• "push to remote" (with uncommitted changes)

Important: If user says "just push" or "直接 push" with uncommitted changes, STILL follow all steps above first.
