Automated summary

Automates the preparation and publication of a new release for the cryptobot-python package.

Strengths

  • Reduces manual errors by automating version file updates
  • Runs tests before release to ensure quality
  • Creates a git tag and GitHub release automatically

Limitations

  • Specific to the cryptobot-python project structure (pyproject.toml, HISTORY.md)
  • Requires gh (GitHub CLI) to be installed and configured
  • Assumes make test is available and passes
When to use it

When you need to publish a new version of the cryptobot-python package, e.g., after accumulating changes.

When not to use it

For projects not using pyproject.toml or a HISTORY.md file, or if you prefer a manual release process.

Security analysis

Caution
Quality score85/100

The skill uses powerful tools like `make` and `gh` for release management. No destructive or exfiltration commands, but `make test` could run arbitrary code without user verification.

Findings
  • •The skill instructs to run `make test` which executes potentially arbitrary commands from a Makefile. While likely legitimate for the project, it introduces execution risk if the Makefile is compromised.
How this analysis is made

Examples

Cut release 0.4.2
Cut a release for cryptobot-python version 0.4.2
New version 1.0.0
Prepare and publish a new release with version 1.0.0 for cryptobot-python
Release with notes
Create a release for cryptobot-python version 0.5.0, I will provide the release notes after you start.

name: release description: Prepare and publish a new cryptobot-python release. Use when the user asks to cut a release, bump the package version, update HISTORY.md, create a git tag, or create a GitHub release.

Release Skill

Create a new release for the cryptobot-python package.

Usage

/release <version>

Where <version> is the new semantic version (e.g., 0.4.2, 0.5.0, 1.0.0).

Instructions

When the user invokes this skill with a version number, perform the following steps:

  1. Validate the version: Ensure the version follows semantic versioning (X.Y.Z format).

  2. Update version files:

    • Update version in pyproject.toml
    • Update __version__ in cryptobot/__init__.py

  3. Ask for release notes: Ask the user what changes should be included in the release notes.

  4. Update HISTORY.md: Add a new entry at the top of the History section with:

    • Version number and today's date
    • The release notes provided by the user

  5. Run tests: Execute make test to ensure all tests pass before proceeding.

  6. Create commit: Create a commit with message chore(release): prepare v<version> release

  7. Create tag: Create an annotated git tag v<version> pointing to the release commit.

  8. Create GitHub release: Use gh release create to create a GitHub release with:

    • Tag: v<version>
    • Title: v<version>
    • Release notes from the HISTORY.md entry

  9. Report completion: Provide the user with:

    • Summary of files changed
    • Link to the GitHub release

From the file to a first result

The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.

View the source and supporting files

This download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.

1. Download the file

Download SKILL.md

From the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.

Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.

mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s/download' --output '.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s/SKILL.md'

2. Check prerequisites

Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.

No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.

The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.

3. Load the skill

After inspection, copy the complete folder into your project using one of the commands below, then open a new tool session. The command stops if a folder with the same name already exists: compare the files before replacing it.

test -f '.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s/SKILL.md' && test -s '.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s/SKILL.md' && mkdir -p '.claude/skills' && test ! -e '.claude/skills/release' && cp -R '.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s' '.claude/skills/release'

Cursor
test -f '.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s/SKILL.md' && test -s '.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s/SKILL.md' && mkdir -p '.cursor/skills' && test ! -e '.cursor/skills/release' && cp -R '.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s' '.cursor/skills/release'

OpenSkills

OpenSkills must already be installed. The local install/read procedure is checked with OpenSkills 1.5.0, which requires Node.js ≥ 20.6.0. Catalog slugs are not resolved automatically.

Official OpenSkills installation
openskills install './.skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s'

openskills read 'release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s'

Reading should display the installed file content and its base directory. It does not run the skill or install its dependencies.

For an agent that reads AGENTS.md, then sync the index. This command changes AGENTS.md: review the diff before using it.

openskills sync

Manual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.

4. Try a first task

Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:

Read .skill-downloads/release-cryptobot-python-package-mmio722s/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.

Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
