Remotion Bits Release

Use this skill when preparing and publishing a new remotion-bits release from this repository.

What This Skill Does

This skill performs the full release workflow:

1. Bump the version in ./package.json. Default to a patch bump unless the user explicitly requests minor, major, or a specific version.
2. Update CHANGELOG.md with concise release notes for the new version.
3. Run npm run registry:build.
4. Commit the release changes with chore: vX.Y.Z.
5. Push the release commit to master.
6. Research notable changes since the previous release from git history and merged PRs.
7. Open the prefilled GitHub release form with system-level browser opening, not the internal browser.
8. After the GitHub release is published, deploy docs with ./scripts/deploy-docs.sh.
9. Publish the package to npm with npm publish.

Preconditions

• Work from the repository root.
• Do not start the docs dev server.
• Assume release publishing requires valid GitHub, Cloudflare, and npm credentials already configured in the environment.
