What it does

Create Release is an agent skill from lablup/backend.ai-webui. Create a release branch, tag, and GitHub release for Backend.AI WebUI.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k 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 Development. It works with GitHub, npm and React. The repository describes itself as: Backend.AI Web UI for web / desktop app (Windows/Linux/macOS). Backend.AI Web UI provides a convenient environment for users, while allowing various commands to be executed… The licence is LGPL-3.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Development work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/create-release”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Validate Prerequisites
  2. Create Release Branch
  3. Update Version in package.json
  4. Run make versiontag
  5. Commit All Changes
  6. Create Version Tag
  7. Push Branch and Tag to Remote
  8. Create GitHub Release
  9. Improve Release Notes

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 10554dc. 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
    • make

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git 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 no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

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

Context cost

Create Release loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 21 tokens; SKILL.md has 539 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~21
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

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.

Create Release

Create a release branch, tag, and GitHub release for Backend.AI WebUI.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS specifies the version to release (e.g., 26.4.0, 26.4.0-alpha.1, 26.4.0-beta.0).

If Arguments Not Provided

Automatically determine the next version:

  1. Read current version from root package.json
  2. Parse the version: extract MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH and any prerelease suffix
  3. Present options via AskUserQuestion:
AskUserQuestion({
  questions: [{
    question: "Which version do you want to release?",
    header: "Release Version",
    multiSelect: false,
    options: [
      { label: "MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH (Stable Release)", description: "Release as stable version" },
      { label: "MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH-alpha.N (Alpha)", description: "Alpha pre-release for testing" },
      { label: "MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH-beta.N (Beta)", description: "Beta pre-release for wider testing" },
      { label: "MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH-rc.N (Release Candidate)", description: "Release candidate before stable" },
      { label: "Custom version", description: "Enter a custom version string" }
    ]
  }]
})

Adjust the option labels with actual computed versions based on the current version:

  • If current is 26.4.0-alpha.0: suggest 26.4.0-alpha.1, 26.4.0-beta.0, 26.4.0-rc.0, 26.4.0
  • If current is 26.4.0: suggest 26.4.1, 26.5.0-alpha.0, 26.5.0, 27.0.0-alpha.0
  • Increment the prerelease number if same type already exists

If user selects "Custom version", ask them to type it.

Process

1. Validate Prerequisites
  • Ensure current branch is main and working directory is clean (git status)
  • If not clean, warn the user and stop
  • Validate version format: X.Y.Z or X.Y.Z-{alpha|beta|rc}.N
2. Create Release Branch

Create a branch named MAJOR.MINOR (e.g., 26.4) from main:

bash
git checkout -b 26.4

If the branch already exists, check it out and merge the latest main into it:

bash
git fetch origin main
git checkout 26.4
git merge origin/main -m "chore: merge main into 26.4 for v{VERSION} release"

Merge origin/main, not the local main — a stale local branch would cut the release short.

If the merge has conflicts, warn the user and stop — do not force-resolve conflicts automatically.

3. Update Version in package.json

Use the Edit tool to set the version field in root /package.json to the target version (e.g., 26.4.0 or 26.4.0-alpha.1).

4. Run make versiontag

This propagates the version to all related files:

  • version.json
  • index.html
  • manifest.json
  • react/package.json
  • packages/backend.ai-ui/package.json
  • electron-app/package.json
bash
make versiontag
5. Commit All Changes

Stage all modified files and commit:

bash
git add -A
git commit -m "release: v{VERSION}"
6. Create Version Tag
bash
git tag v{VERSION}
7. Push Branch and Tag to Remote
bash
git push -u origin {MAJOR.MINOR}
git push origin v{VERSION}
8. Create GitHub Release

Determine the base tag for auto-generated release notes:

Show full SKILL.md (286 more words)Show less
Base Tag Selection Logic
  1. List all tags sorted by version:

    bash
    git tag --sort=-version:refname
  2. Determine the base tag:

    • If releasing a stable version (e.g., v26.4.0):
      • Find the most recent stable release tag (no -alpha, -beta, -rc suffix)
      • Skip the tag we just created
    • If releasing a prerelease version (e.g., v26.4.0-alpha.1):
      • Find the most recent tag of ANY type (stable or prerelease)
      • Skip the tag we just created
      • Pick the latest one as the base
  3. Create the release:

    bash
    gh release create v{VERSION} \
      --title "v{VERSION}" \
      --generate-notes \
      --notes-start-tag {BASE_TAG} \
      --target {BRANCH}

    For prerelease versions (alpha/beta/rc), add --prerelease flag.

  4. Immediately report the release link. As soon as the gh release create command returns the release URL, surface it to the user right away in a short, standalone message (e.g. ✅ Release created: <url>) — do not wait until the final Output Summary. Then proceed to the next step without pausing for confirmation.

9. Improve Release Notes

After the GitHub release is created, invoke the /fw:release-note skill to improve and format the release notes:

/fw:release-note v{VERSION}

This will:

  • Fetch the auto-generated release notes
  • Categorize and group changes with emojis
  • Add contextual descriptions
  • Ask for user confirmation before updating

Output Summary

After completion, provide:

  1. Release Branch: branch name that was created/used
  2. Version: the released version
  3. Tag: the git tag created
  4. Base Tag: the tag used as comparison base for release notes
  5. GitHub Release URL: link to the created release

Example

User: /create-release 26.4.0

1. Validates main branch is clean
2. Creates branch 26.4
3. Updates package.json to 26.4.0
4. Runs make versiontag
5. Commits: "release: v26.4.0"
6. Tags: v26.4.0
7. Pushes branch 26.4 and tag v26.4.0
8. Creates GitHub release (base: v26.3.0)
9. Runs /fw:release-note v26.4.0 to improve notes

User: /create-release 26.4.0-beta.0

1. Validates main branch is clean
2. Branch 26.4 already exists → checks it out and merges main into 26.4
3. Updates package.json to 26.4.0-beta.0
4. Runs make versiontag
5. Commits: "release: v26.4.0-beta.0"
6. Tags: v26.4.0-beta.0
7. Pushes branch 26.4 and tag v26.4.0-beta.0
8. Creates GitHub pre-release (base: v26.4.0-alpha.1)
9. Runs /fw:release-note v26.4.0-beta.0 to improve notes

Notes

  • This skill uses git directly for branch/tag operations (not gh stack) because release branches follow a different workflow than feature PRs
  • Stable versions are published releases; alpha/beta/rc versions are marked as pre-releases
  • Always confirm with the user before pushing to remote if anything looks unexpected
