Update ant-node Reference

This skill updates the ant-node dependency version in ant-core/Cargo.toml, regenerates the lockfile, verifies the build, and commits the change.

Procedure

Step 1: Prompt for target version

Ask the user: What version of ant-node should we update to? (e.g., 0.9.0)

Do not proceed without a version string.

Step 2: Update the dependency

Edit ant-core/Cargo.toml and change the ant-node version to the one the user provided. The line to change looks like:

ant-node = "X.Y.Z"

Step 3: Update the lockfile

Run:

cargo update

This regenerates Cargo.lock to reflect the new version.

Step 4: Verify the build

Run:

cargo build

Do not use --release — it is too slow for a validation build.

If the build succeeds, proceed to Step 5.

If the build fails, stop and report the error to the user. Explain what breaking changes were detected and what code modifications would be needed to get the build to compile. Do not attempt to fix the code automatically — let the user decide how to proceed.

Step 5: Commit the change

Stage ant-core/Cargo.toml and Cargo.lock, then create a commit:

chore: update ant-node to <version>

Step 6: Ask about PR

Ask the user: Would you like to create a pull request for this change?

If yes, create a PR with:

• Title: chore: update ant-node to <version>
• Body: A brief summary noting the version bump and that the build was verified.
