Assess Release Readiness

Analyze a branch to determine if it's ready for release.

Analysis Tasks

1. Review code changes: Check

   git diff main..HEAD

   for:
   • Incomplete work (TODO, FIXME, XXX comments in new code)
   • Security concerns (hardcoded secrets, credentials)
   • Runtime errors or obvious bugs

2. Check for blocking issues:

   • Tests failing (if tests exist)
   • Type errors (if type checking exists)
   • Missing files referenced in code

3. Identify actionable items (not theoretical concerns):

   • Documentation that needs updating
   • Version numbers to bump
   • Files to stage/commit before release

What NOT to Flag

• "Breaking changes" for command renames - users adapt
• API changes in a plugin - plugins are configuration, not APIs
• Internal refactoring - doesn't affect users
• Theoretical upgrade concerns - users pull fresh versions

Output Format

Return JSON:

{
  "releasable": true,
  "verdict": "Ready for release",
  "concerns": [],
  "instructions": {
    "pre_release": [],
    "post_release": []
  }
}

Or if issues found:

{
  "releasable": false,
  "verdict": "Needs attention before release",
  "concerns": [
    "Found TODO comment in src/foo.ts",
    "Tests failing in commands/drive.md"
  ],
  "instructions": {
    "pre_release": ["Fix failing tests", "Remove TODO comments"],
    "post_release": []
  }
}

Guidelines

• Focus on issues that actually block releases
• Provide actionable instructions, not theoretical warnings
• "Breaking change" is rarely a real concern for plugins
• Empty concerns array is the happy path, not a failure
• If it doesn't require action, don't flag it
