What it does

Release is an agent skill from fl-sean03/OpenSDL. Build and validate OpenSDL release candidates by synchronizing versions and producing every workspace distribution locally. Use when cutting or rehearsing a coordinated project release. It does not publish, sign, or tag.

Its SKILL.md is about 580 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `run.sh`).

It sits in Agent Workflows. The repository describes itself as: A modular Python foundation for reproducible computational and autonomous laboratories. Alpha; the reference profile is simulator-only. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Rehearsing a coordinated project release

Example prompts

  • “/release”

Requirements

  • A Bash shell

Workflow steps

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

  1. Start from a clean worktree and an absent or empty dist/. Review changes since the previous
  2. Run .agents/skills/release/run.sh VERSION.
  3. Review synchronized workspace versions, installed CLI and API version reporting, citation
  4. Do not recreate the import-evidence files at the repository root. They describe the imported
  5. Inspect every wheel and source archive under dist/.
  6. Record the exact validation evidence and unresolved release work.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 43f4988. 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 script files (Shell), which the agent can run.

    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

Release loads about 580 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 57 tokens; SKILL.md has 300 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~57
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~580

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
Build and validate OpenSDL release candidates by synchronizing versions and producing every workspace distribution locally. Use when cutting or rehearsing a coordinated project release. It does not publish, sign, or tag.

Build a release candidate

This procedure ends at built artifacts in dist/. It does not upload to a package index, sign an artifact, generate an SBOM, create a Git tag, or create a GitHub Release, and neither does .github/workflows/release.yml, which runs the same gate on a clean runner and uploads the distributions as an expiring Actions artifact. Nothing has ever been published or tagged. What publishing would additionally require, and what it costs irreversibly, is written down in releasing and publishing; do not improvise it here.

Inputs

  • target version
  • reviewed release scope and notes

Procedure

  1. Start from a clean worktree and an absent or empty dist/. Review changes since the previous release — there is not yet a first one, so the scope is the whole history until there is.
  2. Run .agents/skills/release/run.sh VERSION.
  3. Review synchronized workspace versions, installed CLI and API version reporting, citation metadata, generated dependency floors, public API changes, schemas, and migration guidance.
  4. Do not recreate the import-evidence files at the repository root. They describe the imported snapshot and live at the import commit; docs/development/import-provenance.md records where and why.
  5. Inspect every wheel and source archive under dist/.
  6. Record the exact validation evidence and unresolved release work.

Completion

All workspace distributions build from the reviewed revision, and the test, lint, type, schema, boundary, example, and conformance checks pass. The artifacts are local and unpublished.

Stop conditions

Stop on a dirty worktree, a nonempty dist/, a failing check, an unexpected public API change, or an unexpected artifact.

Stop and hand back to the repository owner before any step that leaves the machine: registering a project name, configuring a trusted publisher, uploading a distribution, or pushing a tag. Claiming a name on a package index cannot be undone, and an uploaded version can never be re-uploaded.

Can I use Release in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add fl-sean03/OpenSDL --skill release -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/release, .gemini/skills/release, .github/skills/release and .opencode/skills/release in your project.

What does Release need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Release needs a shell for the scripts in its folder. Our summary lists: A Bash shell.

Does Release access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
