node-workspace-release
Use this Skill when the situation matches the frontmatter description. It is cross-platform and tool-neutral: judgment, sequencing, risk boundaries, and human confirmation points live here; deterministic checks should be delegated to installed workflow runtime paths first, then to source repository paths when the runtime is not installed.
Operating System Support
os: cross-platform. Use the package manager declared by the repository and avoid global installs unless explicitly requested.
Flow
- Identify package manager, workspace shape, and release surface. 2. Run readonly workspace checks. 3. Inspect validate/doctor/schema scripts. 4. Prefer dry-run commands. 5. Require confirmation before publishing or installing. 6. Report exact scripts and skipped actions.
Workflow Routing
Prefer installed runtime paths:
- User:
~/.agent-routines/workflows
- Project:
.agent-routines/workflows
Source fallback:
workflows/<workflow-name>/
Recommended workflows: node-workspace-check, gate-check
Human Confirmation Gates
Ask before npm publish, pnpm publish, registry changes, dependency installation, marketplace publication, version mutation, or generated catalog writes.
Failure Routing
Separate package-manager availability, workspace metadata, schema validation, and publication authorization.
