Release Skill

Publishes a release to GitHub with tag and artifacts.

Workflow (MUST follow this order)

1. Check prerequisites: Run ./release.sh --check to verify bump and build are done
   • If check fails, STOP and tell user to run /bump or /build first
   • Extract version from the check output (e.g., "0.7.0")
2. Generate release notes: Run git log v{PREVIOUS_VERSION}..HEAD --oneline to get commits since last release
3. Format release notes: Use the template below
4. Show and ask approval: Use AskUserQuestion to show the generated notes and ask for approval
   • Option 1: "Publish with these notes"
   • Option 2: "Edit notes first" (user provides custom notes)
5. Publish: Run ./release.sh --publish "notes" with the approved notes
