# Prepare Release
## Workflow
1. Checkout the `master` branch and pull the repo.
2. Activate the Python virtual environment in `.venv-3.11`. If the environment doesn't exist, create it and install dependencies from `dev-requirements.txt`.
3. Run `make lint`. Ignore its results.
4. Use `git diff` to check if there are any changes. If so, commit them with the message `:lipstick: Lint code` and push.
5. Follow the [update-changelog](../update-changelog/SKILL.md) skill.
