Releasing (Bundle-Plugin Release Pipeline)

A rigid, step-by-step release orchestrator for bundle-plugins: pre-flight audits, doc sync, version bump, CHANGELOG, tag, and GitHub Release.

Dev & CodingIntermediate23014AI score 8/10Last updated: Apr 27, 2026

What it does

  • Enforces prerequisites first: clean working tree, main branch check, no pre-existing version tag.
  • Runs automated pre-flight checks (bundles-forge bump-version --check, audit-docs, full quality/security audit, optional claude plugin validate).
  • Reviews the diff since the last tag for contradictions, missing skill registrations, stale references, and over-engineering, reported by severity.
  • Syncs docs/, CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md, and README variants with the real project state.
  • Guides semver choice (major/minor/patch/pre-release) and bumps every declared manifest in one command.
  • Writes and validates a Keep a Changelog entry, then commits, tags, pushes, and creates a GitHub Release via gh.
  • Includes an abbreviated hotfix pipeline for urgent patches.

Who it's for

  • Developers shipping plugin/skill bundles across Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, and Gemini CLI.
  • Maintainers of bundles-forge projects who have been bitten by version drift across manifests.
  • Teams that want a repeatable release checklist instead of ad-hoc tagging.

Examples

  1. "Release version 2.1.0 of this plugin" → pre-flight → audit → doc sync → bump → CHANGELOG → tag + GitHub Release.
  2. "The Cursor manifest still says 1.4.2 — fix the drift" → runs the version check and updates every manifest consistently.
  3. "Hotfix a hook bug now" → abbreviated pipeline, patch bump, ### Fixed entry, publish.

  1. Download the ZIP with the button below.
  2. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
  3. Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/releasing folder from the GitHub repo OdradekAI/bundles-forge into my ~/.claude/skills/releasing/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/OdradekAI/bundles-forge.git /tmp/bundles-forge && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r /tmp/bundles-forge/skills/releasing ~/.claude/skills/

This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/OdradekAI/bundles-forge.git
  3. Create the skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r bundles-forge/skills/releasing ~/.claude/skills/
  5. Confirm the references/ files came along (they hold the version-infrastructure and distribution docs).
  6. Make sure the bundles-forge CLI is installed and on your PATH; install GitHub CLI and run gh auth login if you want automatic GitHub Releases.
  7. Restart Claude Code and ask something like "prepare this project for release" to trigger the skill.
