Release a new version of the OpenClaw skill in tapo-mcp/openclaw-skill/ to ClawHub.
Determine the new version. Read:
version: field in tapo-mcp/openclaw-skill/SKILL.md frontmatter.tapo-mcp server version from tapo-mcp/Cargo.toml.Suggest matching the tapo-mcp version. Ask the user to confirm or supply a different version. ClawHub validates version uniqueness on publish (not monotonic ordering) — any semver string that hasn't been published before for this skill is accepted.
Bump the version.
version: in tapo-mcp/openclaw-skill/SKILL.md, update the frontmatter.tapo-mcp/openclaw-skill/SKILL.md to match the current tapo-mcp server version from step 1. This is a separate field from the skill's own version: — the pin tracks the MCP server version, not the skill version.Determine the changelog summary. Look at recent commits affecting the skill directory:
git log --oneline -10 -- tapo-mcp/openclaw-skill/
Propose a one-sentence summary of what's new in this release and ask the user to confirm or refine. This text is passed to --changelog at publish time and stored on ClawHub per version.
Commit pending changes. If the version bump (or any other prep) left uncommitted changes, run /commit with message chore(tapo-mcp): release openclaw skill vX.X.X. Skip this step if there is nothing to commit.
Publish. Ask the user for confirmation, then:
npx clawhub publish tapo-mcp/openclaw-skill \
--slug tapo \
--name "Tapo" \
--version X.X.X \
--tags "tapo,smart-home,iot,mcporter" \
--changelog "<summary from step 3>"
