github-project-release

To automate GitHub project release preparation, use this Skill to inspect your local project directory, clean unnecessary files, generate a README, and publish a clean repository to GitHub. It handles authentication checks and supports dry runs.

Packaging a local research project for GitHub distribution involves cleaning up the codebase and generating a proper README. This Skill automates that preparation process, ensuring the release copy is complete and secure before publishing.

Yes, you need gh, git, and python3 installed to automate GitHub release publishing. The Skill relies on these dependencies to handle authentication checks, project preparation, and the actual publishing to GitHub.

Yes, you can perform a dry run before publishing a clean release repository to GitHub. The Skill supports optional dry run functionality, allowing you to safely verify project preparation and README rewriting without making actual changes.

Project cleaning works by inspecting the source project directory and removing unnecessary files during the preparation phase. This ensures that the GitHub release repository remains clean, secure, and safe to share with the public or maintain privately.

README rewriting is needed before publishing to ensure your GitHub release repository has proper documentation. The Skill automatically generates and rewrites the README during project preparation, making the distributed codebase easier to understand and use.
