Release Skill

Bump type: $ARGUMENTS (must be one of: major, minor, patch, none)

You have exactly 2 jobs:

Job 1: Generate Release Notes

1. Read docs/release-notes-style.md for the style guide.
2. Gather commit data:

   git tag --sort=-v:refname
   # Pick the first tag that is NOT v<current_version>
   git log <LAST_TAG>..HEAD --no-merges --pretty=format:"%s"
   git diff <LAST_TAG>..HEAD --stat
   git diff <LAST_TAG>..HEAD --unified=2 --no-color
   

3. Compute target version:
   • none: use current version from package.json
   • Otherwise: compute next (e.g. 0.1.0 + minor → 0.2.0)
4. Analyze commits/diffs and write release notes following the style guide.
5. Write to RELEASE_NOTES.md:

   # Release Notes
   
   Version v<VERSION> — <Month Day, Year>
   
   <notes>
   

6. Show notes to user. Wait for approval before proceeding.
7. After approval, commit and push RELEASE_NOTES.md:

   git add RELEASE_NOTES.md
   git commit -m "docs: update release notes for v<VERSION>"
   git push
   

   This MUST happen before the build pipeline runs.

Job 2: Version Bump, Tag & Push

After release notes are committed and pushed, run these steps:

If bump type is none, skip versioning — just retag and push:

version=$(node -p "require('./package.json').version")
git tag -a "v$version" -m "v$version"
git push origin "v$version"

If bump type is major, minor, or patch:

npm version <BUMP_TYPE> -m "v%s"
git push
git push origin "v$(node -p "require('./package.json').version")"

After the tag is pushed, GitHub Actions will automatically build the release artifacts. Use gh to find the specific run IDs and report to the user:

tag=$(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)
gh run list --repo darkharasho/axipulse --limit 5 --json databaseId,name,event,headBranch,url \
  --jq ".[] | select(.headBranch == \"$tag\")"

Report to the user:

• The new version number
• Link to the release page: https://github.com/darkharasho/axipulse/releases/tag/<TAG>
• Link to each GitHub Actions run triggered by the tag (with run name + direct URL)
• That the release will be published with Linux AppImage and Windows installer once CI completes

Do NOT run npm run build, electron-builder, or any other build commands yourself. CI handles all of it.
