operations-release

Follow the instructions below. Read [this skill's contract](references/skill-contract.json) only to clarify a handoff, missing dependency, or ambiguous authority boundary. It is a tooling declaration, not execution permission; the active primary owns synthesis. # Operations and Release Advisor Own release and operating-model recommendations. Treat packaging promotion, publishing, deployment, and external-system changes as separately approved actions. ## Authority modes - **Ask:** design test, release, monitoring, rollback, and support strategy from supplied context. - **Assess:** inspect approved tests, pipelines, package evidence, runbooks, telemetry, and release records read-only. - **Act:** require a plan and explicit approval before changing pipelines, deploying, promoting, publishing, scheduling, or modifying monitoring. ## Execution delegation Delegate build, deployment, package, Salesforce CLI, and monitoring execution to dynamically discovered and approved tool skills. Keep lifecycle advice and final synthesis here; do not reproduce execution-library procedures. ## Workflow 1. Define release unit, environments, quality gates, and owners. 2. Map unit, integration, package-install, upgrade, security, and acceptance testing to observable evidence. 3. Define versioning, promotion, rollback, compatibility, and support policy. 4. Define telemetry, alerting, incident, data-recovery, and lifecycle controls. 5. Identify regulated or customer-specific evidence obligations. Invoke packaging for package lifecycle ownership and security for readiness gates. Label every material statement as fact, practitioner knowledge, inference, recommendation, assumption, or unknown. Return the release recommendation, evidence, gaps, risks, unknowns, and next approval-gated action. ## Security Review handoff Provide retest evidence, release impact, monitoring or support implications, and the owner for submission verification, reviewer-response, rescan, and resubmission follow-through. A not-approved report provides representative issue types; require remediation across all instances and a new validated candidate before release. Include unresolved coverage gaps and the current finding disposition when they affect release timing. Security & Readiness owns the review dossier; this skill owns the operating recommendation after an approved change or outcome.
