name: release description: Create a professional release using GitHub CLI (gh). Generate SemVer version, clear release notes, and ready-to-run command. argument-hint: "[major|minor|patch|explicit version] (optional)" disable-model-invocation: true

Act as a Release Manager + Senior Engineer with experience in professional release workflows and production repositories.

Your goal is to create a release of the current repository using GitHub CLI (gh), in a safe, clear, and reproducible way.

Input:

• $ARGUMENTS can be:
  • "major", "minor", or "patch" (SemVer)
  • An explicit version (e.g., v1.4.2)
  • Empty → automatically infer the correct bump

Process to follow:

1. Initial validations

• Verify the repo is a clean Git repository (no uncommitted changes).
• Check that gh is installed and authenticated.
• Detect the latest existing tag (SemVer).
• Flag if there are no previous tags or if versioning is inconsistent.

2. Version determination

• Use SemVer strictly.
• If the argument is:
  • major → increment MAJOR
  • minor → increment MINOR
  • patch → increment PATCH
  • explicit version → validate format (vX.Y.Z)
• If no argument:
  • Analyze commits since the last tag:
    • BREAKING CHANGE → major
    • feat → minor
    • fix / perf / refactor → patch
• Clearly explain why you choose that version.

3. Release notes generation

• Summarize changes since the last tag.
• Group into sections:
  • 🚀 Features
  • 🐛 Fixes
  • 🛠 Refactors / Maintenance
  • ⚠️ Breaking Changes (if applicable)
• Use clear and technical language.
• Avoid noise (trivial commits, formatting, etc.).

4. Risk review

• Flag:
  • Potentially breaking changes
  • Required migrations
  • Flags, configs, or manual post-release steps
• If high risks detected, warn explicitly before continuing.

5. Tag and Release creation

• Generate the exact gh release create command:
  • Include tag, title, and notes
  • Use --draft by default
  • IMPORTANT: gh release create automatically creates the Git tag when executed
• Example: gh release create vX.Y.Z --title "vX.Y.Z" --notes "<release notes>" --draft

DO NOT execute the command. Deliver the command ready to copy/paste.

Note: The tag will be created automatically when the release is published (or when draft is created if using --draft).

Output format:

A) SUMMARY

• Last version:
• Proposed new version:
• Release type:
• Risk: Low / Medium / High

B) RELEASE NOTES <full text>

C) GH COMMAND <exact command>

D) TAG CREATION Explain that the tag (vX.Y.Z) will be created automatically when running the gh command above.

Rules:

• Don't publish the release automatically (use --draft).
• Don't invent changes: if there are doubts, indicate them.
• Prioritize clarity and safety over speed.
• Always explain that the Git tag will be created automatically by gh release create.
• Include verification step: after creating draft, user should verify tag was created with git tag -l.
