happier

Author, update, validate, and publish-ready Happier release-note story decks. Use when creating curated release notes, analyzing commits/diffs/tags to discover user-facing changes, brainstorming detailed and short release notes, adding story-deck cards, adding release-note images/videos/posters, validating translation keys and asset references, preparing happier-assets upload inputs, or updating onboarding showcase story content.

Promote a Happier release only after validation and human review approval. Runs release dry-run first, requires explicit human approval for external side effects, then executes preview or production promotion through the repo release orchestrator.

Review a completed Happier release-validation worktree before any preview promotion. Audits validation fixes, diffs, evidence, lane completion, unresolved risks, and dry-run output. Read-only by default and never releases.

Run a local-first Happier release validation cycle for a candidate version before preview promotion. Creates a validation worktree and ignored tracking workspace, orchestrates parallel checks, deep manual QA on Lima/macOS/Windows, root-cause fixes, evidence capture, independent reviews, and a final dry-run. This skill never promotes or releases.

Diagnose a problem with a Happier session, the daemon, a provider (Claude/Codex/OpenCode), auth, or connectivity. Pulls the correct logs, finds a true root cause from evidence only, presents findings, and optionally uploads a private diagnostics bundle to Happier developers and/or files a sanitized public GitHub issue (the two are complementary). Use when the user reports a bug, says Happier is broken/stuck/misbehaving, asks to debug/diagnose/triage/troubleshoot Happier, or shares a Happier session ID and asks what went wrong.

Repo-specific TDD and test-validation workflow for Happier changes, with lane selection, fixture policy, and anti-flake guardrails.

Run GitHub CLI commands as the Happier bot account via `yarn ghops` (forced PAT auth + non-interactive).

Manage Happier sessions (list/status/send/wait/history/stop + execution runs) via the happier CLI JSON contract.
