What it does
Release Round is an agent skill from ethereumjs/ethereumjs-monorepo. Runs a coordinated EthereumJS npm release round in six human-gated phases — intent and readiness, CHANGELOG, version bump, publish (human executes), post-publish verification, and announcements. Use when the user asks to prepare or ship a release, bump all @ethereumjs packages, write release notes, or publish to npm and GitHub.
Its SKILL.md is about 2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files (for example `announce.md` and `changelog.md`).
It sits in Development, covering Changelog and release notes. It works with npm, GitHub, JavaScript and TypeScript. The repository describes itself as: Ethereum L1 Protocol Stack and EVM in TypeScript.
When your agent uses it
- The user asks to prepare
- Bump all @ethereumjs packages
- Write release notes
- Publish to npm and GitHub
Example prompts
- “/release-round”
Requirements
- Node.js
- A credential in GITHUB_TOKEN
Workflow steps
6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Intent and readiness
- CHANGELOG / release notes
- Version bump and pre-publish checks
- Publish (human executes)
- Post-publish verification
- Announce
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit a2ee933. 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:
npmtsxgh
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm and gh, 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 these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
GITHUB_TOKEN
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Release Round loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 798 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.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 798 words (~1,986 tokens).
“Human versioning policy: DEVELOPER.md § Releases. Invariants (do-nots, same version, include/omit): releases.mdc.”

- release-round
Files
SKILL.md and 2 other files in .cursor/skills/release-round of ethereumjs/ethereumjs-monorepo.
