Install Release

skills CLI
$ npx skills add nwiizo/cargo-coupling --skill release -a claude-code

Project install by default; add -g for ~/.claude/skills/.

GitHub CLI
$ gh skill install nwiizo/cargo-coupling release --agent claude-code

Project scope by default; add --scope user for a personal install. Needs GitHub CLI 2.90.0 or later (public preview).

Manual copy
$ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/nwiizo/cargo-coupling.git skills-src && mkdir -p .claude/skills && cp -r skills-src/.claude/skills/release .claude/skills/release && rm -rf skills-src

At a glance

Prepare or publish a cargo-coupling version when the user requests a release.

  • Requests a release
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Release is an agent skill from nwiizo/cargo-coupling. Prepare or publish a cargo-coupling version when the user requests a release.

Its SKILL.md is about 490 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 Testing & QA. The repository describes itself as: A coupling analysis tool for Rust projects - measuring the 'right distance' in your code. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Requests a release

Example prompts

  • “/release”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit aa0d18b. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are bash).

    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 491 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 21 tokens; SKILL.md has 216 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
~491

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.

Release cargo-coupling

Match the requested version and publication scope. A preparation request ends with verified local artifacts; a publish request includes the authorized release commit, tag, push, and publication verification. Carry existing authorization forward. Resolve a missing version before changing release metadata; meanwhile inspect the branch, remote, status, and current release workflow.

Update Cargo.toml and refresh Cargo.lock without upgrading unrelated dependencies. Run the required checks against the final release state:

bash
rtk cargo fmt --all -- --check
rtk cargo clippy --locked --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings
rtk cargo test --locked --all-features
rtk cargo build --locked --release

Before publication, verify the staged diff, intended branch and remote, matching manifest/lockfile versions, and that the tag does not already identify a different release. Preserve unrelated work. Use an annotated vX.Y.Z tag on the verified release commit; the commit message is chore: release vX.Y.Z. Push only the intended branch and tag to the verified remote; never replace an existing release tag.

Pushing a v* tag triggers .github/workflows/release.yml, which publishes to crates.io and creates a GitHub release. Check both outcomes before reporting publication complete. If publication fails or is uncertain, inspect the workflow and registry state before retrying; do not create another version or move a tag to bypass the failure.

The optional Claude hook in .claude/settings.json checks formatting and lint for matching commit commands. It does not establish that all release checks ran in another host. Reuse successful current checks while the release state is unchanged.

When should I use Release?

Release fits situations like: requests a release.

How do I install Release in Claude Code?

Run `npx skills add nwiizo/cargo-coupling --skill release -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/release in nwiizo/cargo-coupling) into .claude/skills/release in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

How do I install Release in Codex?

Run `npx skills add nwiizo/cargo-coupling --skill release -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.claude/skills/release in nwiizo/cargo-coupling) into .agents/skills/release in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.

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 nwiizo/cargo-coupling --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?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Release is instructions for the agent only.

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.

Is Release safe to install?

Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.

What licence does Release use?

Release is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Release use?

About 491 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 2k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.

What are the alternatives to Release?
