FAQPage Schema
How do I automate versioning and backups when updating VCV Rack modules?

Versioning and backups are automated through the module-improve Skill, which manages version tagging, creates safe backups before changes, and tracks all modifications. This ensures you can safely roll back if needed and maintain a clear release history.

Can I use changelog automation to document module changes between releases?

Yes, changelog automation is built in. The Skill generates changelogs that document bug fixes, feature additions, and version changes, eliminating manual log updates and ensuring consistent release documentation.

How do I apply root-cause investigation findings to fix module bugs?

The Skill accepts precomputed deep-research findings and integrates them directly into implementation, fast-tracking bug fixes by skipping redundant investigation steps and moving straight to tested solutions.

What preconditions must be met before improving a module?

Modules must have status Working or Installed and be listed in MODULES.md. The Skill verifies these preconditions, runs regression testing, and validates fixes before integration to prevent breaking changes.

Do I need to manually handle version tagging and regression testing?

No. The Skill handles version tagging automatically and includes regression testing as part of its workflow, so you focus on the fix logic while it manages versioning, backups, and test coverage.

Can module-improve work with completed modules that are already installed?

Yes. The Skill applies to completed modules with either Working or Installed status, making it suitable for maintaining active, production modules with ongoing bug fixes and feature updates.
