    create-agent-adapter

    Technical guide for creating a new Paperclip agent adapter. Use when building a new adapter package, adding support for a new AI coding tool (e.g. a new CLI agent, API-based agent, or custom process), or when modifying the adapter system. Covers the required interfaces, module structure, registration points, and conventions derived from the existing claude-local and codex-local adapters.

  • GrinvSkill

    changelog-style

    Turn a commit range into CHANGELOG.md entries following common-changelog style. Use when finishing a PR or cutting a release, to write/fix the [Unreleased] section's entries — moving [Unreleased] under a new dated version heading is a separate, automated step (see the release skill / scripts/sync-version.ts), not this skill's job.

    docs-consistency-check

    Check README/manifest.json/server.json/CHANGELOG.md/AGENTS.md and docs/*.md for drift against the actual registered tools and source. Use after adding, renaming, or removing a tool, or as part of a live-audit pass.

    component-release

    Prepares a verifiable Agent Landing Zone UI release. Use for release branches, VERSION, changelog entries, tags, release notes, and compatibility evidence; never publish without explicit human approval.

    documentation-consistency

    Keeps AI Landing Zone contributor, user, and operator documentation aligned with shipped Bicep behavior. Use for parameters, defaults, outputs, topology, deployment flow, operations, or releases.

    launch-graphics

    Generate agentOS marketing/launch graphics (launch & social heroes, code-snippet cards) from the committed generators in docs-internal/graphics. Use when asked to make, update, or render an agentOS launch image, social image, "agentOS Apps" graphic, or technical code-snippet image.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

2 rules. 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

  • 0

    Common

    Most of the 186 edited versions we read keep these.

  • 2

    Distinctive

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 0

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Distinctive:

    Do not START a release because a cron tick fired, because a plan says "finish the release", or because the tree looks ready.

    line 30
  2. Distinctive:

    Follow its output exactly.

    line 42

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 186 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

/release - Automated Release Management Skill

🚨 HUMAN-GATED — this skill is the ONLY valid entry point

A release may only begin when a human invokes /release in the CURRENT session. An agent must never start a release on its own initiative. The /release invocation is the ONLY authorisation there is: once the pipeline's blocking gates pass, the release proceeds through merge, tag and publish with no secondary human confirmation — it passes, or a failed gate aborts it.

A release is a decision about scope, which only the human can see. The rule, the state file (untracked/release-state.json, written once Stage 0's slate-clean gate returns 0, never before), the resume rules and how to recover from an unauthorised release are all in RELEASING.md — "A RELEASE IS HUMAN-GATED".

  • No state file ⇒ no release in progress. A dirty tree, an open release/* branch or a plan saying "finish the release" is not a substitute — ask.
  • State file present ⇒ resume from last_completed_step and carry the release through to Step 15.

Do not START a release because a cron tick fired, because a plan says "finish the release", or because the tree looks ready.

Run this first

Claude Code loads this markdown and nothing else — the file below is not run for you, and it holds the procedure to follow (Plan 00324):

bash "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR:-.claude/skills/release}/invoke.sh" <major|minor|patch|X.Y.Z> [accept-wip]

Follow its output exactly; what is written here is orientation.

Usage

/release                 # auto-detect version bump from commits
/release 2.2.0           # explicit version
/release patch           # bump type: major | minor | patch
/release 2.2.0 accept-wip  # proceed over in-flight work the slate gate reported

What It Does

Executes the pipeline in RELEASING.md "Pipeline Overview" — the single source of truth for the steps, their order, their numbering and which are BLOCKING gates. In outline only: prepare on a release/<version> branch, open a pull request whose CI runs the whole QA gate, then — in this session, with the daemon live — run the acceptance tests, merge the pull request, tag the merge commit and publish. While the pull request is open, other merges to main are frozen (R-RELEASE-MERGE-FREEZE).

This skill does not restate any step; a step number anywhere in this file is RELEASING.md's numbering. Any blocking-gate failure ABORTS the release.

Agent

The release agent (.claude/agents/release-agent.md) prepares the release files (RELEASING.md Steps 1b–5). Main Claude orchestrates every other step; agents cannot spawn nested agents.
