Bump the project's semver version
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
3 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 8
Follow these rules for x.y.z (semver) versioning:
- Distinctive: line 19
If the project has both, ask the user which one to bump, or whether both should move in lockstep.
- Very specific: line 21
If neither file exists, ask the user how this project tracks its version (a different manifest like Cargo.toml or go.mod, a VERSION file, …
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Let's prepare this for a release by bumping the version number.
Follow these rules for x.y.z (semver) versioning:
- x (major): increment for incompatible API/feature changes. Examples: breaking changes to a public API (removing or renaming methods), major rewrites or refactors that change behavior, changes that require users to update their code or dependencies to stay compatible.
- y (minor): increment for backwards-compatible new features or improvements. Examples: new methods, endpoints, or features; deprecating a feature (without removing it yet); improvements that don't break existing behavior.
- z (patch): increment for backwards-compatible bug fixes or small updates. Examples: fixing a bug without changing intended behavior, small performance improvements, documentation/metadata updates.
Detect which package manager this project uses and bump the version accordingly:
- Python (
pyproject.tomlpresent): update theversionfield, then runuv sync --all-extrasto regenerate the lock file (or the equivalent command for whatever tool the project actually uses — Poetry, pip-tools — if it's notuv). - Node/TypeScript (
package.jsonpresent): runnpm version <major|minor|patch> --no-git-tag-version(or the equivalentpnpm version/yarn versioncommand matching the project's package manager), which updatespackage.jsonand the lock file together.
If the project has both, ask the user which one to bump, or whether both should move in lockstep.
If neither file exists, ask the user how this project tracks its version (a different manifest like Cargo.toml or go.mod, a VERSION file, git tags) rather than assuming — don't silently fail or guess a convention that isn't there.

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
