What it does
Version Bump is an agent skill from NikiforovAll/claude-code-rules. This skill automates version bumping during the release process for the Claude Code Handbook monorepo. It should be used when the user requests to bump versions, prepare a release, or increment version numbers across the repository.
Its SKILL.md is about 860 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 4 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/bump_version.py` and `scripts/validate_versions.py`).
It sits in Development, covering Monorepo tooling and Deployment. The repository describes itself as: Learn practical techniques to enhance your AI-assisted development workflow with Claude Code. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Requests to bump versions
- Prepare a release
- Increment version numbers across the repository
Example prompts
- “/version-bump”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 281c063. 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 3 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
pythongit
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, 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
Version Bump loads about 858 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 61 tokens; SKILL.md has 189 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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

- version-bump
- description
- This skill automates version bumping during the release process for the Claude Code Handbook monorepo. It should be used when the user requests to bump versions, prepare a release, or increment version numbers across the repository.
Version Bump Skill
Per-plugin version bumping for the Claude Code Handbook monorepo. Each plugin can have independent versions.
When to Use This Skill
Trigger this skill when users mention:
- "bump version" or "bump the version"
- "increment version" or "update version numbers"
- Any mention of "major", "minor", or "patch" version changes
Version Locations
Single source of truth: plugins/<name>/.claude-plugin/plugin.json
The marketplace.json is a lightweight registry (no version field) — versions live only in plugin.json.
Workflow Instructions
Step 1: List Current Versions
Show current plugin versions:
python .claude/skills/version-bump/scripts/validate_versions.pyStep 2: Ask User Which Plugin(s) to Bump
Ask the user:
- Which plugin(s) to bump (can be multiple, or "all")
- Which bump type: major, minor, or patch
Step 3: Execute Version Bump
Run the script with the selected plugins:
# Single plugin
python .claude/skills/version-bump/scripts/bump_version.py <bump_type> --plugin <name>
# Multiple plugins
python .claude/skills/version-bump/scripts/bump_version.py <bump_type> --plugin <name1> --plugin <name2>
# All plugins
python .claude/skills/version-bump/scripts/bump_version.py <bump_type> --allStep 4: Report Results
After successful completion, display:
- Plugins bumped with old → new versions
- Next steps for git commit
CLI Reference
# Show help
python .claude/skills/version-bump/scripts/bump_version.py --help
# Error + list plugins when no --plugin flag
python .claude/skills/version-bump/scripts/bump_version.py patch
# Bump specific plugin(s)
python .claude/skills/version-bump/scripts/bump_version.py patch --plugin handbook-dotnet
python .claude/skills/version-bump/scripts/bump_version.py minor --plugin handbook --plugin handbook-extras
# Bump all plugins (legacy monorepo behavior)
python .claude/skills/version-bump/scripts/bump_version.py patch --allExamples
Example 1: Bump Single Plugin
User: "Bump the version for handbook-dotnet"
Claude: "I'll check current versions first..."
[Runs validate_versions.py]
Claude: "handbook-dotnet is currently at 1.19.5. What bump type: major, minor, or patch?"
User: "patch"
[Runs: python bump_version.py patch --plugin handbook-dotnet]
Claude: "Done!
handbook-dotnet: 1.19.5 → 1.19.6
Next steps:
1. git diff
2. git add . && git commit -m 'chore: bump handbook-dotnet to 1.19.6'"Example 2: Bump Multiple Plugins
User: "Bump handbook and handbook-extras to a new minor version"
[Runs: python bump_version.py minor --plugin handbook --plugin handbook-extras]
Claude: "Done!
handbook: 1.19.5 → 1.20.0
handbook-extras: 1.19.5 → 1.20.0"Example 3: Bump All Plugins
User: "Bump all plugins patch version"
[Runs: python bump_version.py patch --all]
Claude: "Done! All 13 plugins bumped from their current versions."Notes
- The script does NOT create git commits - user handles version control
- Plugins can now have different versions (independent versioning)
- Changelog updates are manual - user maintains CHANGELOG.md as needed
