quickrelease

name	quickrelease
description	Cuts a MooshieUI semver release quickly, skipping bot reviews, pre-commit-checks, and local build validation. Bumps versions, prepends release notes, commits, pushes, creates/merges release PR, and tags the release. Use when the user says /quickrelease or wants a checkless release.

Quick Release (MooshieUI)

Fast-path release: checkout main → version bump → changelog → push branch → PR → auto-merge → tag → CI.

This workflow skips all developer hygiene checks, linting, pre-commit hooks, and local build verification. Use it only when the changes are trivial and already verified.

Inputs

Field	Default if omitted
Version X.Y.Z	Read package.json, patch+1 (no v prefix in files)
Summary	git log since last v* tag

Windows git (required)

git -c core.hooksPath=/dev/null ...

Pre-commit hook hangs in PowerShell without this.

Workflow

1. Sync main branch

Ensure you are on a fresh, updated main branch before bumping versions:

git checkout main
git pull origin main

2. Version bump (all three must match)

Update version in:

File	Field
package.json	"version": "X.Y.Z"
src-tauri/Cargo.toml	version = "X.Y.Z" under [package]
src-tauri/tauri.conf.json	"version": "X.Y.Z"

3. Changelog files

Prepend to both RELEASE_NOTES.md and CHANGELOG.md:

## What's New in vX.Y.Z

### Fixes and maintenance
- Detail

---

## What's New in vPREVIOUS

CHANGELOG.md: new section goes directly under # Changelog.

4. Create and push release branch

git checkout -b release/vX.Y.Z
git add -A
git -c core.hooksPath=/dev/null commit -m "vX.Y.Z: Quick release"
git -c core.hooksPath=/dev/null push -u origin release/vX.Y.Z

5. Create Pull Request

gh pr create --base main --head release/vX.Y.Z --title "vX.Y.Z: Quick release" --body "<bullet list of changes>"

6. Merge PR

If branch checks are green or can be bypassed:

gh pr merge <PR_NUMBER> --squash --delete-branch

If branch policy blocks the merge due to pending checks or admin settings, add the --admin flag:

gh pr merge <PR_NUMBER> --squash --delete-branch --admin

7. Sync main & Tag

git checkout main
git fetch origin main
git reset --hard origin/main
git tag vX.Y.Z
git -c core.hooksPath=/dev/null push origin vX.Y.Z

This triggers the Build & Release workflow on GitHub Actions.

8. Cleanup

git fetch --prune origin

Prune any stale local branches.

9. Wiki pass [user-facing changes only]

Quick releases are usually trivial fixes that need no docs — skip this step then. But if this release adds, renames, or removes a user-facing feature or setting, sync the wiki (a separate repo: https://github.com/Mooshieblob1/MooshieUI.wiki.git, branch master, top-level *.md, nav _Sidebar.md).

git clone https://github.com/Mooshieblob1/MooshieUI.wiki.git <scratch>/MooshieUI.wiki   # outside the main repo

Edit the page(s) for each user-facing item in this release's ## What's New in vX.Y.Z block, verifying exact UI labels against current code (src/lib/locales/en.ts + the component) — labels get renamed before ship. Match the wiki's concise, present-tense voice. Then:

git -c core.hooksPath=/dev/null commit -am "Document vX.Y.Z: <short summary>"
git -c core.hooksPath=/dev/null push origin master

No Co-Authored-By, no em dashes. Report pages touched (or that the wiki pass was skipped as internal-only).

Checklist

- [ ] Stale release/* branches cleaned up
- [ ] Three version files match X.Y.Z
- [ ] RELEASE_NOTES.md + CHANGELOG.md updated
- [ ] Release PR merged to main
- [ ] Tag vX.Y.Z pushed
- [ ] Release workflow running on GitHub
- [ ] Wiki pass done for user-facing changes (or skipped as internal-only)

Mistakes to avoid

1. Adding Co-Authored-By trailers to commits, PR bodies, or comments — never attribute AI assistance in any git or GitHub output
2. Missing one of the three version files
3. git without core.hooksPath=/dev/null on Windows
4. Tag before PR merge
5. Force-updating tags — use workflow_dispatch instead
