Han Release

Category: Engineering  ·  Sub-category: docs-engineering  ·  Last updated:
Cut a Han release: update CHANGELOG.md with the changes since the last release, bump and tag every plugin that changed as {plugin-name}--v{version} so a version-constrained dependency can resolve, and publish a GitHub release crediting every merged pull request and closed issue to the people behind it. Use when releasing, cutting a release, shipping a new Han version, publishing release notes, or tagging a version. Always stops for approval before creating any tag, because a pushed tag is never moved. Requires the gh CLI, jq, the claude CLI, and a clean git checkout. This is a repository-maintenance skill for the Han repo itself, not a general review or PR skill — use code-review for local review, post-code-review-to-pr to post a PR review, and update-pr-description for PR bodies.

From the source SKILL.md

<!-- AskUserQuestion is deliberately absent from allowed-tools, and must stay absent. Listing it makes Claude Code's permission evaluator auto-approve the tool through its always-allow path and return empty answers without ever rendering the prompt, so every gate in this skill would silently pass. See han-plugin-builder/skills/guidance/references/skill-building-guidance/allowed-tools-AskUserQuestion.md. The tool still works unlisted; it prompts once for permission. -->

What this skill does

When to invoke it: Use when releasing, cutting a release, shipping a new Han version, publishing release notes, or tagging a version. Always stops for approval before creating any tag, because a pushed tag is never moved.
