About This Skill
What it does
This skill automates the process of creating and merging pull requests for software releases. It analyzes commit messages to determine version numbers, generates release notes based on those commits, and then creates a new branch with updated files ready for review and merge. This streamlines the release workflow by reducing manual effort and potential errors.
When to use it
- You're managing a project with frequent software releases and want to automate the pull request creation process.
- Your team follows semantic versioning (e.g.,
feat: add new featureorfix: resolve bug). - You need to generate release notes automatically based on commit messages.
- You're looking for a way to standardize your release workflow and reduce the risk of human error.
Key capabilities
- Analyzes commit messages to determine version numbers.
- Generates release notes from commit messages.
- Creates new branches for releases.
- Automatically creates pull requests based on generated changes.
Example prompts
- "Create a release PR."
- "Generate a release branch and pull request for the latest commits."

Tips & gotchas
- Requires a project using semantic versioning commit messages to function correctly.
- Ensure your repository is properly configured with appropriate access permissions for automated branch creation and pull request generation.
