Release Process

Create a new release for specops.

Steps

1. Determine Version

Ask the user for the new version, or suggest one based on semver:

patch (x.y.Z): bug fixes, minor changes
minor (x.Y.0): new features, backwards compatible
major (X.0.0): breaking changes

To find the current version:

git describe --tags --abbrev=0

2. Bump Version

Update version in these files:

install.ps1: $VERSION = "vX.Y.Z"
install.sh: VERSION="vX.Y.Z"
README.md: Update install URLs to use vX.Y.Z instead of previous version
.claude-plugin/plugin.json: "version": "X.Y.Z" (no "v" prefix)

3. Commit Version Bump

git add install.ps1 install.sh README.md .claude-plugin/plugin.json
git commit -m "Bump version to vX.Y.Z"

4. Create and Push Tag

git tag vX.Y.Z
git push origin main
git push origin vX.Y.Z

5. Generate Release Notes

Get commits since last tag for release notes:

git log $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0 HEAD^)..HEAD --oneline

6. Create GitHub Release

gh release create vX.Y.Z --title "vX.Y.Z" --notes "RELEASE_NOTES_HERE"
