What it does

Kortix Release is an agent skill from kortix-ai/suna. How to cut a Kortix production release — the versioning philosophy (when patch vs minor vs major) and the exact flow: promote CURRENT main to staging, let the staging PR's checks be the gate, fix forward on main until it is green, then run Promote to Production and deploy + verify prod. Load WHENEVER the user wants to release, promote, cut/ship a version, publish a release, bump the version, or asks why a promotion is stuck. Load it too whenever another skill or doc needs to describe the release/promotion flow —…

Its SKILL.md is about 4.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/fix-forward-traps.md`).

It sits in Development. The repository describes itself as: The open-source AI Operating System.

When your agent uses it

  • Wants to release
  • Cut/ship a version
  • Publish a release
  • Bump the version

Example prompts

  • “/kortix-release”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Golden rule — prod ships ONLY from staging; staging always takes CURRENT main
  2. Versioning philosophy — what bump?
  3. The flow (do this every time)
  4. Fix-forward traps
  5. Gotchas (hard-won)
  6. Undo a bad / premature release

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 10520d3. 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:

    • git
    • gh
    • curl
    • jq
    • npm
    • psql
    • wrangler

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • staging-api.kortix.com
    • gateway-staging.kortix.com
    • staging.kortix.com
    • api.kortix.com
    • gateway.kortix.com
    • kortix.com

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

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • INTERNAL_EDGE_KEY
    • KORTIX_INTERNAL_EDGE_KEY

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

Context cost

Kortix Release loads about 4.4k tokens when it runs, and up to ~5.8k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 147 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,225 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~147
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.4k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~5.8k

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: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:98
    ion catalogs keep key order`, `committed .env profiles are encrypted`,
  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:332
    `apps/api/.env.<env>` with `dotenvx set`.

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 2,225 words (~4,438 tokens).

“How a clean, accurate production release happens. Three parts: what version (the bump philosophy), how staging gets a candidate (promote current main, fix forward until the staging PR is green), and how prod gets it (promote → deploy → verify)…”
