What problem does it solve?

This Skill ensures your Python packages adhere to strict versioning standards, maintain clear changelogs, and automate release processes, preventing compatibility issues and building user trust.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Versioning Schemes: Implements Semantic Versioning (SemVer) and PEP 440 compliance.
  • Changelog Management: Guides on using Keep a Changelog and automating with Towncrier.
  • Release Automation: Details on single-source-of-truth versioning, deprecation strategies, and release workflows.
  • Use Case: When preparing to release a new version of your library, this skill helps you decide whether it's a MAJOR, MINOR, or PATCH bump, guides you in writing the changelog entry, and outlines the steps for tagging and publishing.

Quick Start
