Based on SOC occupation classification
Apply evidence-led RepoPrompt CE maintainership principles distilled from documented project guidance. Use when planning, scoping, implementing, reviewing, triaging, or sequencing RPCE changes; deciding whether work should be an investigation, issue, PR, or follow-up; checking compatibility, migrations, performance, observability, model defaults, or release risk; or asking how a proposed change fits the project's intended direction.
Validate RepoPrompt CE contributions before committing or pushing. Use whenever an agent is about to create a commit, push the current branch, rewrite history, delete a branch or fork, or change GitHub-visible repository state. Enforces staged-index and outgoing-range secret scanning, repository guardrails, clean push boundaries, an explicit PR-ready lane for path-selected heavyweight validation, and explicit approval for destructive Git or visible live-app operations.
Safely process an explicitly ordered batch of RepoPrompt CE pull requests end to end: preserve a dirty original checkout, isolate each PR in an external disposable worktree, use window- and context-scoped CE rpce-cli Agent Mode review, repair and validate, require exact-head hosted checks, merge with merge commits, and clean up. Optionally verify or install a final cloud artifact only when separately requested. Use when an authorized maintainer asks to integrate and merge one or more ordered RepoPrompt CE PRs. Do not use for review-only triage, release-only work, or deployment-only work.
Draft, deduplicate, review, refine, or file maintainer-friendly GitHub issues for RepoPrompt CE from rough notes, investigation findings, or agent context. Use when a user or agent needs a clear RepoPrompt CE issue draft or explicitly requests issue filing.
Select, design, review, consolidate, or remove RepoPrompt CE tests, diagnostic harnesses, and smoke checks by regression value and maintenance cost. Use when the task centers on test, diagnostic, or smoke coverage, including whether a single regression test is worth committing. Do not use for feature or bug-fix work merely because it may need coverage, or for routine test or validation execution.

Use this skill when preparing a RepoPrompt CE release artifact or orienting a maintainer through a production release.
Run the secret-free lane:
make dev-release-preflight
make dev-release-artifact
For a local-only release-mode installation signed by the user's own dedicated
self-signed identity, install Python 3 and double-click
Install RepoPrompt CE Local Production.command
in Finder, or use the coordinated CLI path:
CONFIRM_LOCAL_PRODUCTION_INSTALL=1 make dev-install-local-production
This app is not notarized and must not be distributed or uploaded to GitHub Releases.
Report the ZIP, SHA256SUMS, and external artifact manifest written under
dist/. Confirm that the public candidate is universal arm64+x86_64, ad-hoc
signed, intended for packaging validation, and not distributable. Debug and
local self-signed packages remain host-native.
Read docs/releasing.md before publishing.
Use the environment-scoped GitHub Publish Release workflow for production
draft creation. It requires an existing pushed tag and the release
environment secrets documented there. Review the resulting ZIP, DMG, checksum, appcast, and artifact-manifest assets
and require the fresh secret-free exact-helper packaged roundtrip to pass, then
use the environment-scoped Promote Release workflow for the same
tag. Promotion verifies and mirrors the existing reviewed assets, publishes
both releases without rebuilding, resumes matching partial states, enforces a
monotonically increasing stable build, and runs anonymous post-publish checks.
Dispatch both workflows from protected main only after the release
environment reviewer gate, main deployment restriction, and immutable v*
tag ruleset are enabled, and GitHub Release immutability is enabled for both
the source and updater repositories. Supply the SHA-256 digest of the reviewed
source-draft SHA256SUMS file when dispatching promotion. Do not paste private keys,
profiles, certificate exports, tokens, or passwords into logs or chat.
RepoPrompt CE starts its independent release history at 1.0.0 (1).
Increment BUILD_NUMBER monotonically for every later public update.
After changing version.env, run make release-sync-cli-version and commit the
synchronized MCP CLI version before creating the release tag.
For an explicit private-source updater smoke test, use the maintainer-only
Scripts/publish_public_update_test.sh helper documented in
docs/releasing.md. It publishes only verified
Developer ID signed, notarized ZIPs to the public artifact-only update
repository.
Before a tag, commit, or push, run the repository-local
$rpce-contribution-check skill and follow its approval requirements.
