description	Release workflow for agent-vault. Follow these steps when publishing a new version.

Release

Steps

# 1. Commit all changes first

# 2. Bump version (patch / minor / major)
npm version <patch|minor|major> -m "chore: bump version to %s"

# 3. Push commit and tag
git push && git push --tags

CI will automatically run tests, publish to npm, and create a GitHub Release.

Rules

• Always pass -m "chore: bump version to %s" to npm version
• Tag format: v* (e.g. v0.2.0), this is npm's default
• Do NOT manually edit version in package.json — always use npm version
• Do NOT manually create tags — npm version creates them
• Ensure all changes are committed before running npm version
• CI requires the GitHub repo to be public (for --provenance)
• npm trusted publishing via OIDC — no NPM_TOKEN secret needed, configured on npmjs.com
