What does lockstep versioning mean for this skill?

Lockstep versioning ensures all 11 packages in the TX workspace, including the core library, CLI, and SDKs, are updated to the exact same version number simultaneously to maintain perfect compatibility.

How does it verify that the release was successful?

It monitors the GitHub Actions publish workflow until completion and then queries the npm registry to confirm that all public packages have reached the target version.

Does the skill handle GitHub releases automatically?

Yes, it creates a tagged GitHub release with generated release notes and pushes the changes to the main branch after local validation passes.

Can I reuse a version number if a publish fails?

No, the skill enforces using a fresh version every time. If a publish partially fails, you should fix the issue and release a new patch version to avoid registry conflicts.

Deployment & DevOps

Automates the end-to-end release process for the TX workspace to ensure synchronized versioning across GitHub and npm.

The Release skill provides a standardized, error-resistant workflow for publishing new versions of the TX headless agent infrastructure. It manages the entire lifecycle of a release—from running preflight validation and bumping versions in 11 different package.json files to creating GitHub releases and monitoring CI/CD pipelines until npm verification is complete. This ensures consistency across the entire ecosystem, including CLI tools, SDKs, and servers, while preventing common pitfalls like partial publishes, metadata failures, or version mismatches.
