What it does

Release Rollback is an agent skill from Thank-you-Linus/Linus-Dashboard. Rollback a failed release by deleting tags and reverting version changes. Use when a release fails, needs to be cancelled, or when reverting a problematic release.

Its SKILL.md is about 790 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 DevOps & Cloud. It works with npm and Git. The repository describes itself as: Elevate your smart home experience with a modern, responsive dashboard built on Home Assistant. Effortlessly manage your devices, areas and floors with an intuitive interface…. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • A release fails
  • Needs to be cancelled
  • Reverting a problematic release

Example prompts

  • “/release-rollback”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Verify Version to Rollback
  2. Run Rollback Script
  3. What the Script Will Do
  4. After Rollback
  5. Create New Release

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 337c675. 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:

    • npm
    • git

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use npm and 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

Release Rollback loads about 789 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 45 tokens; SKILL.md has 344 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~45
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~789

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
Rollback a failed release by deleting tags and reverting version changes. Use when a release fails, needs to be cancelled, or when reverting a problematic release.

Rollback Failed Release

Rollback a failed release by deleting the release and reverting version changes.

⚠️ This will delete the release and revert version changes.

Current Situation Check

Check recent tags:

bash
git tag -l --sort=-version:refname | head -5

Review which version needs to be rolled back.

Rollback Process

Step 1: Verify Version to Rollback

Confirm with the user:

  • What is the version to rollback?
  • Is this the correct version to rollback?
Step 2: Run Rollback Script

Execute the rollback command:

bash
npm run release:rollback <version>

Example:

bash
npm run release:rollback 1.5.0-beta.3
Step 3: What the Script Will Do

The rollback script performs:

  • Delete local git tag for specified version
  • Delete remote git tag for specified version
  • Delete GitHub release for specified version
  • Revert version changes in all files
  • Clean up RELEASE_NOTES files
  • Provide next steps
Step 4: After Rollback

Post-rollback verification:

  1. Check GitHub to confirm release is deleted
  2. Verify tags are removed: git tag -l
  3. Fix the issues that caused the failure
  4. Run: npm run release:check to validate fixes
Step 5: Create New Release

Once issues are fixed, create new release:

  • For beta: Use release-beta skill
  • For stable: Use release-stable skill

Common Rollback Scenarios

Build Failed
  • Fix build errors
  • Run: npm run build to test
  • Run: npm run test:smoke
  • Re-run validation
Linting/Type Errors
  • Run: npm run lint to auto-fix
  • Run: npm run type-check to verify
  • Fix reported issues
  • Re-run validation
Version Mismatch
Validation Failed
  • Run: npm run release:check
  • Address all errors and warnings
  • Fix issues systematically
  • Re-run validation

Usage Example

bash
# Rollback beta release
/release-rollback 2.0.0-beta.3

# Rollback stable release
/release-rollback 1.5.0

This requires the version number to rollback.

Important Notes

  • Destructive operation: Cannot be undone easily
  • Confirm version: Double-check before proceeding
  • Fix root cause: Address the issue that caused failure
  • Re-validate: Run all checks before creating new release
  • Communication: If release was public, inform users

Rollback Checklist

Before proceeding with rollback:

  • Identified the version to rollback
  • Confirmed the version is correct
  • Understood why the release failed
  • Ready to fix the underlying issue

After rollback:

  • Verified tag deletion locally and remotely
  • Confirmed GitHub release deletion
  • Fixed the root cause issue
  • Ran validation checks
  • Ready for new release attempt
