# Project Release Maintainer
This is a composable overlay, not a standalone workflow.
Use alongside the repo's implementation skill for publication-facing and
- packaging-sensitive changes.
+ packaging-sensitive changes. Compose with `documenter` when the main artifact
+ is durable release, install, or contributor documentation.
## When to use
The change affects README, release checklists, install rules, shipped assets,
workflows, licenses, or other publication-facing artifacts.
## Not for
Internal code changes that don't affect the shipped surface (use the
implementation skill directly), vendored dependency work (use
**project-vendor-boundary**), or config/test work (use
**project-config-and-tests**).
## Rules
- keep README, release checklist, workflows, install rules, and shipped assets aligned
- validate temporary install trees when install behavior changes
- run hygiene checks on publication-facing changes
- keep docs small, accurate, and consistent with the shipped build
+ - do not invent CI, packaging, signing, publishing, or release workflows that
+ the repo does not already contain or that the user did not explicitly request
