What it does

Release is an agent skill from championswimmer/pi-context-prune. Creates a repository release for this Pi package. Use when the user asks to do a major, minor, or patch release, bump the package version, create and push a git tag, and publish to npm through the repo's tag-driven GitHub Actions workflow.

Its SKILL.md is about 910 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/release.sh`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering CI/CD. It works with GitHub Actions, npm and Git. The repository describes itself as: Pi coding-agent extension for pruning tool-call trees.

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to do a major
  • Bump the package version
  • Create and push a git tag
  • Publish to npm through the repos tag-driven GitHub Actions workflow

Example prompts

  • “Use the release skill to create a repository release for this Pi package. An agent skill from championswimmer/pi-context-prune”
  • “/release”

Requirements

  • A Bash shell

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. bump the version
  2. create the release commit and git tag
  3. push main
  4. push the tag to GitHub
  5. optionally verify the GitHub Actions publish workflow started or succeeded

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7f27bee. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm
    • bash

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Release loads about 907 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 461 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~62
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~907

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 461 words (~907 tokens).

“Use this skill when asked to release this package, especially through /release major, /release minor, or /release patch.”
