release-rara SKILL.md skillA

release-rara from linkerdog/rara is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add linkerdog/rara/release-rara@git:20260706.5853a8e

Pins git:20260706.5853a8e in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when preparing, validating, tagging, or troubleshooting a RARA release. Enforces the release order that prevents tag versions from diverging from the Cargo package version.

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

# Release RARA

Use this skill for every RARA release request, including version bumps,
release-candidate checks, tag creation, workflow dispatch, and release failure
triage.

## Non-Negotiable Rule

Never create, push, or dispatch a release tag until the Cargo package version
matches the target tag version.

For tag `vX.Y.Z`, `[workspace.package].version` in `Cargo.toml` must be
`X.Y.Z`. For prerelease tag `vX.Y.Z-alpha.N` or `vX.Y.Z-beta.N`, the Cargo
version must be `X.Y.Z-alpha.N` or `X.Y.Z-beta.N`.

If the release workflow reports:

```text
Tag version X.Y.Z does not match Cargo package version A.B.C.
```

stop the release. Do not rerun the release workflow until a normal commit bumps
the Cargo version to `X.Y.Z` and that commit is the one being tagged.

## Release Preparation Checklist

1. Confirm the requested tag and version.
   - Tag format: `vX.Y.Z`, `vX.Y.Z-alpha.N`, or `vX.Y.Z-beta.N`.
   - Version is the tag without the leading `v`.
2. Start from an up-to-date `main`.
   - Check the worktree is clean before editing.
   - Pull `main` before preparing the version bump.
3. Update the Cargo version before tagging.
   - Edit `[workspace.package].version` in `Cargo.toml`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add linkerdog/rara/release-rara@sha256:28455bb977140e98

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260706.5853a8e, 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.
