Release Compass from the latest origin/main. Use this skill whenever a user asks to sync Compass, bump a Compass version, create or merge a release PR, build or publish macOS/Linux/Windows artifacts, write release notes, verify release downloads, or build the matching VS Code VSIX. Follow the complete gated workflow rather than treating a release as a local version edit.
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
# Compass release
Use this skill for the full Compass release path. Compass releases are immutable, multi-platform artifacts, so the version bump, PR, tag, CI build, release notes, and download verification must describe one exact commit.
## Inputs and defaults
Extract these from the user request before changing anything:
- `version`: the explicit SemVer requested by the user (for example `0.3.7`). Never guess a version when the request is ambiguous.
- `with_vsix`: build the VS Code extension when requested; do not publish it to a GitHub release unless the user explicitly asks.
- `release_notes`: summarize the user-visible changes since the previous Compass tag. Keep the notes concise and link the changelog and comparison range.
- `repo`: the Compass checkout named by the user. Resolve it with `git rev-parse --show-toplevel`; do not assume a particular worktree path.
Use these shell variables after the version is confirmed:
```sh
version="<requested-version>"
tag="compass-v${version}"
branch="codex/release-${version}"
target_dir="/Volumes/Workspace/crabbuild-target/compass-release-${version}"
```
## Safety gates
Stop and report the blocker instead of improvising when:
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add crabbuild/compass/compass-release@sha256:b30e878faafcafe9The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260808.aa08247, 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.
