name	setup-pypi-ci
description	Add the standardized CI publish workflow (`.github/workflows/publish.yml` + `make release`) to an existing Python project so PyPI releases happen on tag push. Use when a project still publishes via a local script (`publish.py`, `hatch publish`, `twine upload`) or has no automated publish at all.

Setup PyPI CI

After this skill: release = bump version → commit → push → make release. CI builds and uploads.

Steps

1. Copy publish.yml to .github/workflows/publish.yml.
2. Merge the targets from Makefile into the project's Makefile. Replace <pkg> with the actual package directory (use src/<pkg> if applicable).
3. Set the PyPI token secret:

   PYPI_TOKEN=$(grep "^password" ~/.pypirc | head -1 | sed 's/password = //')
   gh secret set PYPI_API_TOKEN --body "$PYPI_TOKEN"
   

4. Commit and push.

Use the release skill to cut the first version.
