Cut a GAIA release end-to-end: draft notes, open release PR, run pre-tag verification, push the tag, monitor the publish pipeline, and produce the Discord announcement. Also cuts release candidates (vX.Y.Z-rcN) for testing before the final. Use when the user asks to 'cut a release', 'cut a release candidate', 'release vX.Y.Z', 'tag a release', or 'publish v...'. Pauses at every irreversible step for user approval.
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
# GAIA Release Run a GAIA release end-to-end against the `amd/gaia` repo. The skill is a **phased checklist with hard gates** — each phase produces a concrete artifact, then stops and asks for confirmation before doing anything irreversible (opening a PR, pushing a tag, rerunning a CI job, posting an announcement). The pre-tag verification phase exists because the v0.17.4 release uncovered two release-blocking bugs that merged-PR CI did not catch (squash-merge silently reverting `version.py`, and the AppImage smoke test's circular `pip install amd-gaia==<unpublished>` dependency). Do not skip it. ## Argument parsing Accept one argument in any of these shapes: - `0.17.5` — bare semver - `v0.17.5` — with the `v` prefix (the actual tag form) - `0.17.5.1` — hotfix-style four-part version (rare; e.g. `v0.15.4.1`) - *(no argument)* — read `__version__` from [src/gaia/version.py](../../../src/gaia/version.py), then suggest the next-patch bump (e.g. `0.17.4` → propose `0.17.5`) and ask the user to confirm or override before continuing. …

How to install
mdr add amd/gaia/gaia-release@sha256:33350635938345faThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261019.c5cfa83, 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.
