Release Patterns

Release Patterns Skill

Purpose

Ensure consistent PR creation, CI/CD validation, and release coordination following rebase-first workflow.

When This Skill Applies

• Creating pull requests
• Running pre-PR validation
• Checking CI/CD status
• Coordinating merge timing

Pre-PR Checklist (MANDATORY)

Before creating any PR:

• Branch name: {{TICKET_PREFIX}}-{number}-{description}
• Commits follow: type(scope): description [{{TICKET_PREFIX}}-XXX]
• Rebased on latest main: git fetch origin && git rebase origin/{{MAIN_BRANCH}}
• CI passes locally: {{CI_VALIDATE_COMMAND}}

PR Creation

gh pr create \
  --title "feat(scope): description [{{TICKET_PREFIX}}-XXX]" \
  --body "## Summary
Implements feature as specified in {{TICKET_PREFIX}}-XXX.

## Changes
- Change 1
- Change 2

## Testing
- CI passes
- Manual testing completed"

Merge Strategy

ONLY use rebase merge:

# CORRECT
gh pr merge --rebase --delete-branch

# NEVER
gh pr merge --squash   # Loses history
gh pr merge --merge    # Creates merge commits
