What it does
Odc Release is an agent skill from DouglasNeuroInformatics/OpenDataCapture. Ship a release of Open Data Capture — bump the version, publish the npm packages and the GHCR images, tag it. Use when a merge to main produced no new version, or when a release run logs Skipping <pkg@<version (already published).
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`).
It sits in Development. It works with npm. The repository describes itself as: An electronic data capture platform for administering remote and in-person clinical instruments. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- A merge to main produced no new version
- A release run logs Skipping <pkg@<version (already published)
Example prompts
- “/odc-release”
Requirements
- Docker
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 432dec8. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pnpmghdocker
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use pnpm, gh and docker, 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
Odc Release loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 62 tokens; SKILL.md has 821 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

- description
- Ship a release of Open Data Capture — bump the version, publish the npm packages and the GHCR images, tag it. Use when a merge to main produced no new version, or when a release run logs `Skipping <pkg>@<version> (already published)`.
A release is one version bump merged to main — after that .github/workflows/release.yaml builds the
images, publishes the npm packages and creates the GitHub release with no further input. It also fires on
workflow_dispatch from main, which releases again with no bump and no merge; a dispatch from any other ref
fails configure. The release body is the new version's
section of CHANGELOG.md, which scripts/increment-version.ts generates from the commits since the last tag;
the release job fails, rather than publishing an empty body, when that section is missing. Which workspaces publish: .agents/docs/workspace-map.md; how each artifact is selected: the job
table in .agents/docs/playbooks/cut-a-release.md.
The failures here are silent — nothing goes red.
The silent green: a root-only bump publishes nothing
Every publishable package must carry the root version. Each publishes at its own package.json version and
the publish step skips a version npm already carries, so a bump that moved the root alone leaves publish-npm
green and npm untouched. Nothing compares those files, so you are the lockstep check: after the bump, every
row of scripts/list-publishable.sh must carry the version in the root package.json, which that script never
prints. Skipping <pkg>@<version> (already published) is the ordinary output of any push that carried no bump —
a symptom only in the run for the commit that was supposed to bump. The mechanism, and the command that compares
the two: .agents/docs/playbooks/cut-a-release.md.
pnpm lint is the only test the release path runs
The validate job runs pnpm lint and stops there (release.yaml:37-52): the merge is the last moment a test
runs against this code, and after it a red suite ships silently. Get the branch green first with
.agents/skills/odc-done/SKILL.md, and — since nothing you run locally builds the Docker images, and build
gates both publishes — require gh run list --workflow=Release --limit 1 green on main before you bump. What
CI does and does not gate: .agents/docs/architecture/testing-strategy.md.
skipped is the shape of a release that never happened
publish-npm and release inherit the default success() gate over their needs, so a build that dies takes
both of them down and GitHub reports them skipped rather than failed (release.yaml:53-56,92-100,140-145).
Read the cause off the run, not off the missing artifact:
- one leg
failureand its siblingscancelled—strategy.fail-fast: true(release.yaml:57-59): an image that does not build, not a collision. - the whole run
cancelled— the per-ref concurrency group withcancel-in-progress: true(release.yaml:9-11): a second merge landed while it was in flight.
Recover by fixing the failing job and re-running the run (gh run rerun <id>); the publish step's version guard
makes that safe. Cut another patch only when npm needs a version it has never seen.
Done when the answer to "the merge produced no new version" names the job that owns the missing artifact, quoted from the run.

Known drifts to name, not to repair
Machinery oddities, verified and already understood — say so in your reply and carry on. A red build is not one
of them; that is a failure to fix.
- Every push to
mainperforms a full release —release.cjssetsshould_releaseto'true'on every run frommain, on purpose. It consults nothing outside the repository, so no registry state can wedge it; do not add a gate that reads GHCR or npm back. The gate that used to live there is in.agents/docs/playbooks/cut-a-release.md. - No playground image ships — the matrix filter drops it.
- Nothing enforces the version lockstep; you do, above.
Pulling a bad release takes latest with it
build pushes latest and the bare version onto one manifest, so deleting that GHCR package version deletes
both tags. Delete the two most recent releases and the images have no latest at all — every
docker pull ghcr.io/douglasneuroinformatics/open-data-capture-api:latest fails until the next release restores it,
and nothing in this repo reports that. Cut the replacement release promptly, or retag a known-good version by hand.
Deleting the GitHub release and its v<version> tag is independent of the images and of npm, where a version older
than 72h cannot be unpublished at all — pulling a release means pulling it in three places, and only the images
carry latest.
Done when every release-machinery oddity you hit is either in that list or in your reply — the reason for any one
of them is in .agents/docs/playbooks/cut-a-release.md.
The procedure
.agents/docs/playbooks/cut-a-release.md — open it before the first command and follow it end to end. It owns
the order of operations, scripts/increment-version.ts (no pnpm script — run the path), the merge, watching
the run, and the ## Verify block. That script prompts for the bump and for a y/N; with no terminal on stdin
it exits 1 having written nothing, so pass the answers as flags:
./scripts/increment-version.ts --bump patch --yes, plus --commit to have it make the
chore: release v<version> commit too. Hand-editing a version field is how the drift this skill exists to
prevent gets made.
Done when the playbook's ## Verify block has been run and all three artifacts report the new version. A green
run is not the criterion.
