Release

Release Skill (Internal Maintainer)

Use this for release operations on this repository. This is not a user-facing Graphistry domain skill.

Use This Skill For

• Cutting a new version from CHANGELOG.md [Development]
• Creating the release PR (release/vX.Y.Z -> main)
• Tagging the merged release on main
• Publishing a GitHub Release

Workflow

Follow RELEASE.md in the repo root. Key commands:

python3 scripts/ci/validate_release.py --pre           # 1. preflight
python3 scripts/ci/validate_release.py --pr            # during PR review
python3 scripts/ci/validate_release.py --post vX.Y.Z   # after release

Guardrails

• Do not release from an unmerged feature branch.
• Do not tag before the release PR is merged to main.
• Do not put secrets or raw eval artifacts in release notes.
