Guides the creation and review of Architectural Decision Records (ADRs). Use this skill when a significant architectural change is proposed, a new technology is introduced, or a trade-off needs to be documented.
Intelligently routes requests to the correct context instructions and documentation files. Use this skill to determine which AGENT.md, guide, or technical instruction file is most relevant for a user's request.
Scaffold API mocking infrastructure using Mountebank and Testcontainers for reliable integration testing.
Manage full-stack observability using Logfire (logging/tracing) and OpenObserve (storage/visualization).

Use this skill to prepare a project for release and to ensure operational readiness.
Define release scope. Review the changes since the last release. Summarise new features,
bug fixes and breaking changes. Ensure all work is documented in PRODUCT.md and
ARCHITECTURE.md where relevant.
Versioning. Determine the next version number using semantic versioning (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH). Increment MAJOR for breaking changes, MINOR for new backwards‑compatible functionality and PATCH for bug fixes.
Update changelog. Create or update a changelog (e.g. CHANGELOG.md) summarising the
changes, contributors and any migration steps. Use standard formats like Keep a Changelog.
Validate and test. Run all validation tasks and the full test suite. Perform performance and security checks. Ensure that the build artefacts (e.g. packages, Docker images) are reproducible and meet quality criteria.
Deployment preparations. Review deployment scripts or pipelines. Check environment variables, secrets and infrastructure configuration. Prepare rollback procedures and health checks.
Communication. Draft release notes for users. Announce any deprecations or important notices. Coordinate with operations or DevOps teams to schedule deployment.
Monitor post-release. After deployment, monitor logs, metrics and user feedback. Be prepared to roll back if critical issues arise. Document lessons learned for future releases.
This skill ensures that releases are predictable, transparent and operationally sound.
