Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

About this skill
What it does
This skill automates Git release workflows, handling tagging, branch management, and potentially deployment based on configured triggers. It simplifies the process of creating releases from your codebase, ensuring consistency and reducing manual errors. The tool supports both semantic versioning and custom tag formats for release identification.
When to use it
- You need to automate the creation of Git tags and releases after merging code into a main branch.
- You want to streamline the process of deploying software based on new Git tags or branches.
- Your team follows semantic versioning (SemVer) and requires automated tag generation.
- You're looking for a way to manage release branches and their eventual merging back into your primary codebase.
Key capabilities
- Automated Git tagging
- Branch management
- Semantic Versioning support
- Custom tag format support
- Deployment triggers (potential)
Example prompts
- "Create a new release for version 1.2.3."
- "Tag the current commit as 'release-candidate-1'."
- "Release this branch to production after merging into main."
Tips & gotchas
- Requires access and permissions to your Git repository.
- Deployment triggers require careful configuration to avoid unintended deployments.
