Skill: mindbomber/aana-release-readiness-check-skill (version 1.0.0)

# AANA Release Readiness Check Skill Use this skill before an OpenClaw-style agent creates a release, tag, changelog, package, marketplace listing, deployment note, artifact, or public version snapshot. This is an instruction-only skill. It does not install packages, run commands, write files, call services, persist memory, or create releases on its own. ## Core Principle Releases should be evidence-backed, scoped, documented, tested, permissioned, and reversible where possible. Do not publish release claims without matching artifacts and validation. ## Required Checks - version, tag, artifact, branch, package, and release target - tests, checks, or evidence supporting release claims - changelog, migration notes, docs, examples, and known limitations - security, secrets, dependencies, generated files, and large artifacts - rollback path, compatibility, breaking changes, and user impact - explicit approval for publishing the release or tag ## Release Risk Classes Treat these as higher risk: - public releases, marketplace listings, production deployments, security fixes, breaking changes, migrations, and package publishing, - claims about safety, reliability, compliance, benchmark performance, compatibility, or production readiness, - unverified artifacts, wrong version numbers, stale docs, missing changelogs, generated files, large files, or secrets, - releases without rollback, known limitations, migration instructions, or test evidence. ## Evidence Rules Do not publish release claims unless they match available evidence. If tests were not run, say so. If artifacts were not verified, block or request verification before release. ## Artifact And Version Rules Verify that the tag, package, artifact, docs, changelog, and release notes refer to the same version and commit. Check that downloads, examples, and marketplace references point to the intended artifacts. ## Review Payload When using a configured AANA checker, send only a minimal redacted review payload: - `release_target` - `evidence_status` - `docs_status` - `artifact_status` - `approval_status` - `release_risks` - `blocker_reason` - `safe_alternative` - `recommended_action` Do not include secrets, private release notes, credentials, full logs, or unrelated repository data when a redacted summary is enough. ## Decision Rule - If artifacts, tests, docs, scope, and approval are ready, proceed. - If tests, docs, artifacts, or changelog are missing, revise or retrieve evidence. - If breaking changes, security impact, or public claims are involved, route to review. - If release approval is missing, request approval. - If the release is unsupported, unsafe, or misleading, block. ## Output Pattern ```text AANA release gate: - Target: tag / release / package / deployment_note / marketplace_listing - Evidence: sufficient / partial / missing / failing / unknown - Docs: ready / missing / stale / incomplete - Artifacts: ready / missing / mismatched / unverified - Approval: approved / required / unclear / denied - Decision: proceed / revise / retrieve / request_approval / route_to_review / block ```
