What Release does

Release cuts and publishes a stable NAC version after the release PR, tag, and release checks pass. Use it when maintaining a stable version bump, GitHub Release, and post-tag verification; not for release candidates.

Release is cataloged under DevOps on DirSkills. Release comes from a repository tagged agent-harness, agent-orchestration, agent-skills, agentic-workflows and ai-agents.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

Full stable release

Publish a stable NAC release end to end. A request for X.Y.Z or vX.Y.Z means complete the version bump, merge, annotated tag, GitHub Release, release automation, asset verification, and clean-install smoke test. Do not stop after preparing a branch or pull request.

This workflow is only for stable releases. Never create, edit, rerun, promote, or delete vX.Y.Z-rc.N tags or prereleases; the scheduled release workflow owns release candidates.
