# Modular Release Pipelines

## When to Use This Skill

This guide covers implementing release automation with:

- **Release-please** for version bumping and changelog generation
- **GitHub App authentication** for proper workflow triggering
- **Change detection** to skip unnecessary builds
- **Cascade rebuilds** when shared dependencies change

    subgraph release[Release Pipeline]
        Main[Push to Main] --> AppToken[GitHub App Token]
        AppToken --> RP[Release-Please]
        RP --> PR[Creates PR]
    end

    subgraph build[Build Pipeline]
        PR -->|pull_request event| DC[Detect Changes]
        DC --> Test[Test]
        Test --> Build[Build]
        Build --> Status[Build Status]
    end

## Prerequisites

Before implementing release pipelines, set up a GitHub App for your organization:

- [GitHub App Setup](../../secure/github-apps/index.md) - Create and configure the App
- [Token Generation](../../patterns/github-actions/actions-integration/token-generation/index.md) - Generate tokens in workflows

---


## Implementation

1. [Set up GitHub App](../../secure/github-apps/index.md) for your organization
2. [Configure release-please](release-please/index.md) with App token
3. [Set up change detection](change-detection.md) for your components
4. [Handle protected branches](protected-branches.md) if applicable

---


## Examples

See [examples.md](examples.md) for code examples.
