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.
Release safety rules. INVOKE WHEN: yarn release, npm publish, release canary, release packages, publishing, skip checks, skip tests. NEVER skip checks or tests without explicit permission.Key capabilities
- →Validate release commands
- →Enforce test and check execution
- →Manage release flags
- →Prevent unauthorized skip-test usage
How it works
It intercepts release commands to ensure quality gates are met and prevents the use of dangerous flags unless explicitly authorized by the user.
Inputs & outputs
When to use release-safety
- →Running npm publish with safety checks
- →Verifying monorepo release flags
- →Preventing unauthorized skip-test usage
About this skill
release safety
rules for running releases in this monorepo.
rules
- NEVER add
--skip-checksunless user explicitly says "skip checks" - NEVER add
--skip-testsunless user explicitly says "skip tests" - if checks or tests fail, FIX THE ISSUES instead of skipping
- ask user before adding any skip flags
- the point of checks is to catch problems before publishing
when things fail
- read the error output carefully
- fix the underlying issue
- re-run the release
- do NOT just skip the failing step
common flags
safe flags:
--canary- publish canary version--ci- run in ci mode--dirty- allow dirty working directory--build-fast- faster builds
dangerous flags (require explicit permission):
--skip-checks- skips type checking--skip-tests- skips test suite--skip-build- skips building packages
When not to use it
- →Skipping checks or tests without explicit user permission
Limitations
- →Requires explicit permission to use skip flags
How it compares
Unlike manual releases that might ignore failures, this skill enforces a strict policy of fixing underlying issues before proceeding.
