What it does
Cutting A Release is an agent skill from Fallout-build/Fallout. Procedure for tagging, publishing, promoting, or cutting a new release/vX.Y branch, hotfixing a production line, or cutting the eventual v11 major. Trigger on requests to cut a release, publish to nuget.org, tag a version, hotfix main or support/v10, or promote a release branch to GA.
Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in DevOps & Cloud. The repository describes itself as: ☢️ Fallout — The C/.NET Build System.
When your agent uses it
- Requests to cut a release
- Publish to nuget.org
- Promote a release branch to GA
Example prompts
- “/cutting-a-release”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8333cc8. 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
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
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
Cutting A Release loads about 559 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 76 tokens; SKILL.md has 204 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
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 204 words (~559 tokens).
“The maintainer runbook is docs/branching-and-release.md — read it and follow it exactly; this file is a quick index into it plus the gotchas worth knowing before you start.”
