Documentation

README

Excerpt

CodexBar Release

Use for releasing signed/notarized macOS apps, especially repos with Sparkle appcasts and Homebrew casks.

Start

Work from the app repo unless asked otherwise.
Check repo state, current version, latest tag/release, and release docs/scripts.
Confirm CHANGELOG.md is complete, user-facing, deduped, and dated for the release.
Prefer the repo release script; patch small script/test blockers instead of bypassing the release path.
Never print key material. Keep 1Password references and local key paths as references only.
Load $release-private if it exists before resolving Peter-owned credential locators.

Key Material

Use $one-password for secret handling. op only in tmux/persistent shell; no broad env, set, export -p, or secret scans.
