Release and publish
Requires explicit publishing authorization and a completed git-wrapup: synchronized version/changelog, reviewed commits, annotated v<version> at HEAD, and no unresolved working-tree changes. Read CLAUDE.md. This CLI targets npm and GitHub Releases; no MCP Registry, MCPB, Docker, or hosting steps apply.
1. Verify wrapup
Read package version, current branch, origin, tag target, annotation and status. Verify tag signing when configured; a signature block must never be interpreted as release text. An existing tag conflict is a stop, not permission to replace it.
2. Run the gates
Run bun run devcheck, bun run rebuild, bun run test:package, and bun audit. Inspect output and resolve failures/warnings. Confirm the package allowlist excludes local configs, reports, tests, backups and credentials. Review any transitive advisory by its actual installed dependency path.
3. Push the reviewed commits and exact tag
Push the intended branch, then the exact release tag. Do not push unrelated tags. A rejection requires reconciliation, never force-push or stash. A PR route does not authorize merging.
4. Publish npm
Run bun publish --access public. Verify the name is still mcp-reporter. Complete configured interactive authentication when requested by the registry. An already-published version is successful only after querying and verifying that exact package/version; never treat arbitrary publish errors as success.
5. Record skipped server destinations
There is no server.json, MCP Registry registration, MCPB bundle or container deployment for this client. Do not create placeholder metadata or destinations to satisfy a server workflow.
6. Create the GitHub Release
Run bun run release:github. It uses the annotated tag and creates the title v<VERSION>: <tag subject> with --verify-tag --notes-from-tag. The annotation's subject omits the version and its flat digest ends in a per-version changelog link. Existing-release recovery updates the title; inspect the existing body before replacing any published content.
7. Reconcile tracked work
After verifying delivery, add concise resolution comments on addressed first-party issues with release/commit links, then close completed issues. Do not close another contributor's issue without authorization. Keep incomplete or blocked work open with accurate scope.
8. Report artifacts and partial failures
Return the npm version URL and GitHub Release URL. On a failure, state which destinations succeeded and the exact failing step. Retry transient network errors at most twice with brief backoff; do not retry authentication, integrity or semantic failures blindly.
9. Verify reachability
Query the exact npm version and gh release view v<version> --json url,tagName,name,isDraft. Check the title and tag against local metadata. Distinguish a blocked verification from evidence that publication failed. Never report a release as complete based only on a push exit code.
