Bump a plugin's version and changelog in its own repo, then pin the pushed commit in both Foundry catalogs.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# cut-release

Cuts a release for one plugin this marketplace lists. Plugins are submodules, so a release is two
commits that move together: one in the plugin's own repository, pushed to its `main`, then one in
Foundry that pins that commit in every catalog listing the plugin.

Which plugins exist is not written down here. Plugins get added and retired, so read the current
set from the catalogs. Never assume a plugin name — list them.

Copy this checklist into your reply and tick each step as it finishes:

```
- [ ] Step 0: plugin chosen, checkout state reported, suite green or go-ahead recorded
- [ ] Step 1: new version agreed
- [ ] Step 2: changelog entry and every manifest bumped
- [ ] Step 3: plugin release commit pushed and on origin/main, CI green
- [ ] Step 4: pins, gitlink and checks agree; Foundry commit pushed
- [ ] Step 5: release installed on each host it ships for, or marked not run
- [ ] Step 6: results reported
```

## Where the version lives, and where the pin lives

| Host | Version | Pin |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Claude Code | `<plugin>/.claude-plugin/plugin.json` | `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`, the entry's `source.sha` |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add v-songbird/foundry/cut-release@sha256:f105493790197e1c

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
