description: Release a new version of this Obsidian plugin by bumping the npm/package version, syncing manifest.json and versions.json, and pushing the resulting git tag. Use when the user asks to cut a release, bump the version, publish a new version, or push a release tag.
Release New Version
Use this skill for this repo's release flow.
Quick flow
Make sure the user wants an actual release, not just a local version bump.
Check git status and stop if there are unrelated uncommitted changes unless the user explicitly wants to proceed.
Ask which version bump to make: patch, minor, major, or an explicit version like 1.3.6.
Run one of:
npm version patch
npm version minor
npm version major
npm version 1.3.6
Push the branch and tag together:
git push origin HEAD --follow-tags
What npm version does here
Updates package.json.
Runs the repo's version script.
The version script runs node version-bump.mjs.
That script syncs manifest.json and versions.json to the new version.
npm version also creates a git commit and git tag by default.
Verify before pushing
Confirm the new version appears in package.json and manifest.json.
Confirm versions.json has the new version key.
Confirm the new commit and tag exist locally.
Release result
Pushing the tag triggers .github/workflows/release.yml, which:
builds the plugin
attaches main.js, manifest.json, styles.css, and a zip asset
creates the GitHub release automatically
Notes
Prefer git push origin HEAD --follow-tags over pushing the tag separately.
If the working tree is dirty, ask the user how to proceed before running npm version.
