To prepare a private GitHub repository for public open-source release, you need to remove secrets, add licensing, and generate documentation. This skill automates that preparation by enforcing Apache‑2.0 licensing, updating .gitignore, and creating release artifacts alongside comprehensive docs.
The best way to audit code for secrets and internal references before publishing is to run an automated pre-publish check. This skill integrates an automated audit that detects secrets, internal references, and license incompatibilities to ensure safe public exposure.
Yes, open-sourcing a private repository can retain the full commit history. This workflow preserves your entire commit history while applying Apache‑2.0 LICENSE files, inserting license headers, and cleaning the codebase for GitHub.
To add an Apache‑2.0 license and headers to an existing codebase, you can automate the insertion during the open-sourcing workflow. This skill automatically adds the Apache‑2.0 LICENSE file, updates .gitignore, and inserts license headers across your project.
Yes, you can create versioned release artifacts for macOS and Linux when open-sourcing a project. This skill hands off to a release workflow that generates and distributes versioned binary artifacts for both macOS and Linux platforms.
