What ArcKit Release does

ArcKit Release drives the end-to-end ArcKit release flow: bumping versions in lockstep, regenerating non-Claude formats, validating plugin/marketplace agreement, tagging, and pushing to standalone repos. Use it when you need to cut, tag, and publish a new ArcKit release.

ArcKit Release is cataloged under DevOps on DirSkills. ArcKit Release comes from a repository tagged ai-agents, ai-governance, architecture-decision-records, architecture-governance and arckit.

Excerpt

Release ArcKit

Drive the ArcKit release flow end to end. This skill is the executable companion to docs/RELEASING.md — that doc is the source of truth; if the two disagree, trust RELEASING.md and update this skill.

The target version is $ARGUMENTS (e.g. /release 5.10.0). If no version was given, ask for it before doing anything — never guess a version.
