description	Create a new Trebuchet release tag following semantic versioning (without 'v' prefix)

Create a new release for Trebuchet:

Pre-Release Checks

1. Check for uncommitted changes:

   cd /Users/bri/dev/Trebuchet && git status --short
   

   If there are uncommitted changes, ask the user if they want to proceed.

2. Show current version:

   cd /Users/bri/dev/Trebuchet && git describe --tags --abbrev=0 2>/dev/null || echo "No tags yet"
   

3. Show recent commits:

   cd /Users/bri/dev/Trebuchet && git log --oneline -10
   

Release Workflow

1. Ask the user: "What version number for this release?"

   • Format: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH (e.g., 0.4.0)
   • CRITICAL: NO 'v' prefix! Use 0.4.0 NOT v0.4.0

2. Validate the version format matches \d+\.\d+\.\d+

3. Ask the user: "What's the release message?"

4. Create the annotated tag:

   cd /Users/bri/dev/Trebuchet && git tag -a VERSION -m "MESSAGE"
   

5. Confirm with user before pushing

6. Push the tag:

   cd /Users/bri/dev/Trebuchet && git push origin VERSION
   

Version Guidelines

• MAJOR: Breaking API changes
• MINOR: New features, backwards compatible
• PATCH: Bug fixes, backwards compatible

Important Notes

• Trebuchet uses semantic versioning WITHOUT 'v' prefix
• Verify CHANGELOG.md is updated before releasing
• Ensure all tests pass before creating a release
