version
1.0.0
bump-skill-version
Updates the version: field in skills/<name>/SKILL.md per the rules in CLAUDE.md → Versioning:
Reports the old and new version. Refuses to run if the working tree has uncommitted changes to the target SKILL.md (so the bump becomes its own atomic edit) — pass --force to override.
When to use
After editing any file inside skills/<skill-name>/ other than trivial whitespace.
Before committing changes that the agent (or a human reviewer) will publish.
Notes
Reads and rewrites the YAML frontmatter in place; preserves all other fields.
The package-skill.sh PostToolUse hook will rebuild dist/<skill-name>.skill automatically once the SKILL.md is edited.
