Release — Delta Neutral

Cut a new release for the given version number (passed as the argument, e.g. 0.2.0).

Step 1: Read AGENTS.md

Read AGENTS.md for the latest versioning and release instructions.

Step 2: Update version file

Update config/version.rb to the new version number.

Step 3: Generate changelog entry

1. Identify the previous version's git tag (e.g. v0.1.1).
2. Run git log <previous-tag>..HEAD --oneline and git diff <previous-tag>..HEAD to review all changes since the last release.
3. Draft a changelog entry under ## [<version>] - <today's date> using Keep a Changelog format (Added/Fixed/Changed sections as appropriate).
4. Write the entry into CHANGELOG.md above the previous version's heading.

Step 4: Pause for user review

STOP and ask the user to review the changelog and version changes. Tell them:

• Review CHANGELOG.md and config/version.rb
• Make any edits they want
• Commit when ready (e.g. git add -A && git commit -m "version to <version>")
• Tell you when the commit is done

Do NOT proceed until the user confirms their commit is done.

Step 5: Tag and push

Once the user confirms:

1. Run git tag v<version>
2. Run git push && git push --tags
3. Confirm the tag is pushed and the release workflow will pick it up.
