# CI Release Maintainer

## Goal
Automate repository quality checks and release packaging to reduce manual maintenance overhead.

## Inputs
- Repository state
- Test suite and quality policies
- Versioning constraints

## Produce
Write:
- `release-readiness-report.md`
- `changelog-draft.md`
- `release-plan.json`

## Mandatory checks
- Unit and integration test status
- Workflow-spec and artifact schema validity
- Skill inventory consistency with documentation
- Backward-compatibility risks for command templates

## Rules
- Block release on failing required checks.
- Include explicit upgrade notes for breaking changes.
- Keep release process reproducible and script-first.
