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.
Pinned to a commit: passed
Scanned mikeyobrien/ralph-orchestrator at edc2b3268c.
The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill
What it does
The release-bump skill automates incrementing version numbers in project files. It can update semantic versions (e.g., 1.2.3 to 1.2.4) within a specified file or across an entire repository, and supports various formats like package.json, pom.xml, and more. This helps streamline software release processes by ensuring accurate versioning.
When to use it
- Automated releases: Increment the version number when deploying a new build to a staging or production environment.
- Dependency updates: Automatically bump versions after merging pull requests that include dependency changes.
- Internal tooling: Update version numbers in internal tools and libraries as part of their development cycle.
- Release branches: Increment the version number when creating a release branch from
main.
Key capabilities
- Supports various file formats (package.json, pom.xml, etc.)
- Increments semantic versions (major, minor, patch)
- Can operate on single files or entire repositories
- Automates versioning tasks within software development workflows.
Example prompts
- "Bump the version in
package.jsonfrom 1.0.0 to 1.0.1." - "Increment the patch version in all
pom.xmlfiles in this repository." - “Update the version number in my project’s main configuration file.”
Tips & gotchas
- Ensure you have appropriate permissions to modify the target files or repositories.
- Review any changes made by the skill before committing them to your codebase, especially when operating on entire repositories.
