SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill enables teams to perform a deterministic, evidence-based release-readiness review by comparing the previous release tag with the latest candidate and auditing the BASE_TAG...TARGET diff for potential breaking changes, regressions, risks, and improvement opportunities.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Automated tag synchronization and base/target selection to ground release decisions.
  • Diff analysis across key domains (code, configuration, tests) to surface risk signals and validation needs.
  • Guided gate policy and a structured release decision output (ship or block) with actionable next steps.

Quick Start

Sync remote tags, determine BASE_TAG and TARGET, then run the release-review workflow to produce a ship/block decision.

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform a release readiness review by diffing previous and target tags?▼

Release readiness review identifies the previous release tag and latest target, then evaluates the BASE_TAG...TARGET diff to surface risks, regressions, and breaking changes for a deterministic ship/block decision.

What is deterministic release gating and how does it evaluate code diffs?▼

Deterministic release gating applies explicit gate rules and a review checklist to map code, configuration, and test diffs, ensuring evidence-based release decisions instead of manual guesswork.

How do I sync remote tags and select the base tag for a release audit?▼

Sync remote tags to determine the BASE_TAG and TARGET, grounding the release audit by mapping the full diff to validate readiness and identify potential blockers before shipping.

Can I get actionable unblock steps when a release gate finds issues?▼

When the release gate identifies issues, the workflow outputs actionable unblock steps alongside the structured ship or block decision, detailing exactly what to fix before re-evaluating.

Does release review work without external dependencies or integrations?▼

Release review operates with no external dependencies, using internal diff analysis and explicit gate rules to audit code, configuration, and test domains for release validation.
