  • Check `git status --short` and `gh auth status` before starting

How it works

Inputs & outputs

You give it
Issue number or description for a hotfix
You get back
A hotfix branch, a pull request to `main`, and confirmation of patch release

When to use hotfix

About this skill

Hotfix Workflow

本番障害向けのホットフィックスフローを開始し、hotfix/* ブランチ作成からパッチリリース確認までを案内する。

Preflight

  • git status --short が空であること
  • main ブランチが存在すること
  • gh auth status が成功すること

実行内容

  1. 前提条件チェック
  2. main から hotfix/* ブランチ作成
  3. 修正・品質チェック・PR作成・リリース確認の手順提示

使用方法

パターンA: Issue番号を指定

./scripts/release/create-hotfix.sh 42
# -> hotfix/42

パターンB: 説明を指定

./scripts/release/create-hotfix.sh fix-critical-bug
# -> hotfix/fix-critical-bug

パターンC: 対話式

./scripts/release/create-hotfix.sh

修正後の流れ

# 1) 修正実装
git add .
git commit -m "fix: 緊急修正の説明"

# 2) 品質チェック
make quality-checks

# 3) プッシュ + PR
git push -u origin hotfix/xxx
gh pr create --base main --head hotfix/xxx \
  --title "fix: 緊急修正の説明" \
  --label "hotfix,auto-merge"

# 4) リリース確認
gh release view

注意

  • 緊急修正以外の変更を含めない
  • Conventional Commits で fix: プレフィックスを使う
  • main マージ後はパッチ版(例: v1.2.4)が自動作成される

When not to use it

  • For changes other than emergency fixes
  • When `git status --short` is not empty
  • When `main` branch does not exist

Limitations

  • Must not include changes other than emergency fixes
  • Requires `main` branch to exist
  • Requires `gh auth status` to be successful

How it compares

This skill provides a structured, guided hotfix process with automated branch and PR creation, unlike a manual git workflow.
