description	Run the pre-release verification checklist before triggering the GitHub Actions release workflow. Verifies unit tests, lint, version bump in AndroidManifest.xml, DATABASE_VERSION, store metadata, screenshots, and git state, then reports a summary table. Use when asked to run the release checklist, verify release readiness, or check that everything is ready before a release.

Release Checklist

Verify all release prerequisites before triggering the GitHub Actions release workflow. Run each check and report results.

Checks

1. Unit tests pass

./gradlew testAndroidDebugUnitTest --rerun-tasks

All tests must pass. If any fail, report the failures and stop.

2. Lint is clean

./gradlew lintAndroidDebug

No new errors should be introduced. Warnings are acceptable if pre-existing.

3. Version is bumped

Read app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml and check:

• android:versionCode — must be incremented from the last release
• android:versionName — must reflect the new version string

Compare with the latest git tag to confirm the version has changed:

git describe --tags --abbrev=0

4. DATABASE_VERSION is correct

If any database migrations were added since the last release:

• Verify DATABASE_VERSION in MainApplication.java was incremented
• Verify all onCollectionDatabaseUpgrade() methods use the correct version checks

If no database changes were made, confirm DATABASE_VERSION is unchanged.

5. Store metadata is current (if applicable)

Check if store text needs updating:

• fastlane/metadata/android/en-US/full_description.txt
• fastlane/metadata/android/en-US/short_description.txt

6. Screenshots are current (if UI changed)

If UI changes were made, screenshots may need regenerating:

• images/screenshots/small/ (6 PNGs)
• images/screenshots/medium/ (6 PNGs)
• images/screenshots/large/ (6 PNGs)

Use the capture-store-screenshots skill if regeneration is needed.

7. Working tree is clean

git status

No uncommitted changes should exist.

8. Branch is up to date

git fetch origin main
git log HEAD..origin/main --oneline

No unmerged upstream changes should exist.

Output

Report a summary table:

Check	Status	Notes
Unit tests	PASS/FAIL
Lint	PASS/FAIL
Version bumped	YES/NO	vX.Y.Z (code: NN)
DATABASE_VERSION	OK/NEEDS BUMP	Current: N
Store metadata	OK/NEEDS UPDATE
Screenshots	OK/NEEDS UPDATE
Working tree clean	YES/NO
Branch up to date	YES/NO

If all checks pass, the release workflow can be triggered. If any check fails, list the required actions before release.
