node-workspace-release

Use this Skill when the situation matches the frontmatter description. It is cross-platform and tool-neutral: judgment, sequencing, risk boundaries, and human confirmation points live here; deterministic checks should be delegated to installed workflow runtime paths first, then to source repository paths when the runtime is not installed.

Operating System Support

os: cross-platform. Use the package manager declared by the repository and avoid global installs unless explicitly requested.

Flow

1. Identify package manager, workspace shape, and release surface. 2. Run readonly workspace checks. 3. Inspect validate/doctor/schema scripts. 4. Prefer dry-run commands. 5. Require confirmation before publishing or installing. 6. Report exact scripts and skipped actions.

Workflow Routing

Prefer installed runtime paths:

• User: ~/.agent-routines/workflows
• Project: .agent-routines/workflows

Source fallback:

• workflows/<workflow-name>/

Recommended workflows: node-workspace-check, gate-check

Human Confirmation Gates

Ask before npm publish, pnpm publish, registry changes, dependency installation, marketplace publication, version mutation, or generated catalog writes.

Failure Routing

Separate package-manager availability, workspace metadata, schema validation, and publication authorization.
