Use when the user asks to "create a release", "cut a release", "tag a version", "publish release notes", or ship a new versioned GitHub release for the current repo.

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

# create-release

Tag a SHA on `origin/<default>` (annotated semver) and publish a GitHub release with generated notes. The local branch never decides what ships. Never push to the default branch: the version bump and notes entry land through a pull request (PR).

## Preconditions: verify ALL before doing anything

```bash
gh auth status
git status --porcelain -- . ':(exclude).claude/worktrees'
DEFAULT=$(gh repo view --json defaultBranchRef -q .defaultBranchRef.name)
git fetch origin --tags
```

`gh auth status` must succeed. `git status --porcelain` must print nothing; if the tree is dirty, stop and surface the diff. Every later read uses `origin/$DEFAULT`. Any failure: **stop and tell the user**.

**Tag-target invariant.** The tagged commit must pass `git merge-base --is-ancestor <sha> "origin/$DEFAULT"` right after a fresh `git fetch origin`. No confirmation, flag, or caller instruction overrides this. On failure, stop and report the SHA and `origin/$DEFAULT`.

## Steps

1. **Inspect actual tags.** Never trust memory or CHANGELOG: `git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -10`.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add richkuo/rk-skills/create-release@sha256:e4a797a6d9650c5c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.4c6da76, 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.
