What it does

Release is an agent skill from nikships/droidproxy. Build, sign, notarize, and publish a new DroidProxy release. Use when the user wants to cut a release, merge a PR and ship it, or asks to build/notarize/publish. Covers the full pipeline: PR merge, version bump, swift build, code signing, Apple notarization, Sparkle appcast update, and GitHub release creation.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k 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 Mobile, covering iOS development and App store release. It works with GitHub, macOS and Git. The repository describes itself as: macOS menu bar app that proxies Claude/Codex/Grok + More subscriptions for use with Factory Droid CLI. Actively maintained and updated with new model releases! The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

The user wants to cut a release
Merge a PR and ship it
Asks to build/notarize/publish

Example prompts

“/release”

Workflow steps

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

Determine version
Bump version in Info.plist
Build the app bundle
Notarize
Create distribution zip and sign with Sparkle
Update appcast.xml
Commit, tag, and push
Create GitHub release

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 32028ee. 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
- xcrun
- gh
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:
- github.com
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 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 80 tokens; SKILL.md has 338 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~80
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~1.1k

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, sign, notarize, and publish a new DroidProxy release. Use when the user wants to cut a release, merge a PR and ship it, or asks to build/notarize/publish. Covers the full pipeline: PR merge, version bump, swift build, code signing, Apple notarization, Sparkle appcast update, and GitHub release creation.

DroidProxy Release

End-to-end release pipeline for DroidProxy macOS menu bar app.

Prerequisites

Developer ID signing identity available in keychain
notarytool keychain profile named "notarytool" configured
Sparkle EdDSA signing key in keychain (used by sign_update)
gh CLI authenticated with push access to anand-92/droidproxy
On the main branch with a clean working tree

Steps

1. Determine version

Check the latest git tag and the commits being released to decide the new semver:

bash

git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -5
git log --oneline $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD

New feature -> bump minor (e.g. 1.5.0 -> 1.6.0)
Bug fix only -> bump patch (e.g. 1.5.0 -> 1.5.1)
CLIProxyAPI bump alone -> bump patch

2. Bump version in Info.plist

Edit src/Info.plist and update CFBundleShortVersionString to the new version.

3. Build the app bundle

bash

APP_VERSION=<version> ./create-app-bundle.sh

This does a release swift build from src/, assembles the .app bundle, signs everything (cli-proxy-api, Sparkle.framework, main executable) with Developer ID, and verifies.

The build number (CFBundleVersion) is auto-set to git rev-list --count HEAD.

4. Notarize

bash

ditto -c -k --sequesterRsrc --keepParent "DroidProxy.app" "DroidProxy-notarize.zip"
xcrun notarytool submit "DroidProxy-notarize.zip" --keychain-profile "notarytool" --wait
xcrun stapler staple "DroidProxy.app"

Wait for status: Accepted before proceeding. If rejected, fetch the log:

bash

xcrun notarytool log <submission-id> --keychain-profile "notarytool"

5. Create distribution zip and sign with Sparkle

bash

ditto -c -k --sequesterRsrc --keepParent "DroidProxy.app" "DroidProxy-arm64.zip"
src/.build/artifacts/sparkle/Sparkle/bin/sign_update DroidProxy-arm64.zip

Capture the sparkle:edSignature="..." and length="..." from the output.

6. Update appcast.xml

Add a new <item> block at the top of appcast.xml (after <language>en</language>):

xml

<item>
  <title>Version X.Y.Z</title>
  <sparkle:version>BUILD_NUMBER</sparkle:version>
  <sparkle:shortVersionString>X.Y.Z</sparkle:shortVersionString>
  <sparkle:minimumSystemVersion>13.0</sparkle:minimumSystemVersion>
  <pubDate>DAY, DD MMM YYYY HH:MM:SS +0000</pubDate>
  <enclosure url="https://github.com/anand-92/droidproxy/releases/download/vX.Y.Z/DroidProxy-arm64.zip"
             type="application/octet-stream"
             sparkle:edSignature="SIGNATURE_FROM_STEP_5"
             length="LENGTH_FROM_STEP_5"/>
</item>

sparkle:version = the build number from step 3 (printed during build)
pubDate = current UTC time in RFC 2822 format

7. Commit, tag, and push

bash

git add src/Info.plist appcast.xml
git commit -m "Update appcast for vX.Y.Z"
git tag vX.Y.Z
git push origin main --tags

Before committing, run git diff --cached to verify no secrets or unintended files.

8. Create GitHub release

bash

gh release create vX.Y.Z DroidProxy-arm64.zip \
  --title "vX.Y.Z" \
  --notes "### Added
- Feature description
- **CLIProxyAPI X.X.X** -- Latest upstream release"

Verify it worked

Release visible at https://github.com/anand-92/droidproxy/releases/tag/vX.Y.Z
DroidProxy-arm64.zip attached to the release
appcast.xml on main has the new entry (existing installs will auto-update within 24h)
Run codesign --verify --deep --strict DroidProxy.app confirms valid signature

What not to do

Don't skip notarization -- unsigned apps won't launch on recent macOS without manual override.
Don't re-create the zip after stapling for Sparkle signing -- staple first, then zip, then sign. The order is: notarize zip -> staple .app -> fresh zip for distribution -> sparkle sign.
Don't edit appcast.xml without the actual Sparkle signature -- copy/paste errors break auto-update.
Don't push the tag before the appcast commit, or the release download URL will 404 until the asset is uploaded.

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 the command-line tools its instructions call (git, xcrun and gh).
