How does it identify breaking changes?

The skill analyzes Semantic Versioning (SemVer) jumps and uses GitHub MCP tools or WebFetch to parse changelogs for deprecations and major version increments.

Can I use it for general GitHub searches?

The skill is specifically designed for project maintenance and should not be used for general discovery of new, unrelated libraries or tools.

What repositories does the Release Researcher track?

It monitors critical repositories including anthropics/claude-code, official Anthropic plugins, MCP servers, and the Conductor pattern repo to ensure total system compatibility.

Does this skill perform the updates automatically?
