Prepare Routa releases with the existing repo scripts. Keep the workflow deterministic until human confirmation is needed for commit, tag, or push.
## When to use
- The user asks to release Routa, publish a version, prepare release notes, or generate a release blog post.
- The task needs synchronized version bumps plus `docs/releases/` artifacts.
## Workflow
1. Confirm the target version and whether the user wants a dry run or an actual publish.
2. If a release summary already exists, pass it with `--summary-file`. If the user wants AI-generated summary copy, add `--ai` and optionally `--ai-provider <name>`.
3. Run the helper:
```bash
node scripts/release/prepare-release-artifacts.mjs <version>
node scripts/release/prepare-release-artifacts.mjs <version> --from <previous-tag> --ai --ai-provider claude
```
4. Review the generated files:
- `docs/releases/v<version>-release-notes.md`
- `docs/releases/v<version>-changelog.md`
- `dist/release/changelog-summary-prompt.json`
5. If the user only wants preparation, stop after review and validation.
6. If the user wants to publish, continue with either:
```bash
./scripts/release/publish.sh <version>
```
or the manual flow documented in `docs/release-guide.md`.
## Guardrails
- Do not tag or push without explicit user confirmation.
- Do not discard unrelated worktree changes.
- Prefer `docs/releases/v<version>-release-notes.md` as the blog/release-note source of truth after generation.
- If `git status --porcelain` is not clean and the task is a real publish, call that out before invoking `publish.sh`.
## References
- Read `references/release-workflow.md` for the step-by-step release decision tree.
- Read `docs/release-guide.md` when the task needs the full publish or verification checklist.
