Automating npm CLI release handles version bumping, git tagging, and npm publication while automatically updating global installations. It ensures consistency across GitHub, npm, and local environments while minimizing downtime.

Cutting a CLI release using git worktrees and systemd automates the end-to-end lifecycle by managing worktrees, validating build gates, and performing zero-downtime service restarts within the repository.

Yes, you need GitHub CLI, npm, and systemd access to execute deployment and verification tasks. These tools are required to manage the release pipeline and perform global environment synchronization.

Automated release validation prevents broken npm publications by performing verification gates before publication. It runs automated linting, type checking, and testing to ensure package stability before deploying.

Yes, it performs zero-downtime service restarts for global CLI updates by synchronizing the global npm package and restarting systemd-managed workspace services automatically after a successful publication.
