Activation
This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Automate a full seedit release by analyzing commits, updating the release body, bumping the version, regenerating the changelog, and finalizing the git tag. Use when the user says "release", "new version", "cut a release", "prepare release", or provides a version number to ship.Key capabilities
- →Analyze commits since the last tag
- →Write a one-liner description for the release body
- →Bump the version in `package.json` based on bump level
- →Regenerate `CHANGELOG.md` from conventional commits
- →Commit changes, create a git tag, and push to remote
- →Perform a dry run of the release process
How it works
The skill automates the release process by analyzing commit history, updating version and changelog files, and then committing and tagging the release in git.
Inputs & outputs

- →Cut a new release
- →Bump version in package.json

- →Requires conventional commits for changelog generation
- →Requires `package.json` for version bumping
- →Dry-run mode skips git operations
