Cutting A Release
TriliumNext/Trilium
A skill your agent uses when cutting, preparing, or debugging a Trilium release — bumping the monorepo version, tagging, or diagnosing a failed "Release" workflow run.
Cut and publish a Gerillass release — version bump, changelog, tag, GitHub release, npm publish, and post-publish verification.

What it does
Release is an agent skill from selfishprimate/gerillass. Cut and publish a Gerillass release — version bump, changelog, tag, GitHub release, npm publish, and post-publish verification. Use when the user asks to release, publish, ship a version, or push a fix out to npm.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.9k 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, covering CSS and styling and Changelog and release notes. It works with npm and GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Gerillass is a Sass mixin library containing a set of Sass mixins and functions to help front-end developers generate scalable CSS outputs.
When your agent uses it
- The user asks to release
- Push a fix out to npm
Example prompts
- “/release”
Requirements
- Node.js
Workflow steps
7 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- Verify the tree before anything else
- Bump and document
- Confirm the tarball
- Commit, tag, push
- GitHub release
- Publish to npm
- Verify what actually shipped
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 65f6638. 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:
npmgitnodegemyarnnpxghruby
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm, git, yarn, npx 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
Release loads about 2.9k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,329 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); 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 1,329 words (~2,865 tokens).
“The repository and the npm package are separate things. Fixing main changes nothing for anyone using the library — the fix reaches users only when a new version is published. Never stop at the git tag.”
