FAQPage Schema

How do I automate version bumping and PR creation for plugin releases?▼

Automating version bumping and PR creation involves running a release process that audits the codebase, applies the correct semantic version bump, validates documentation, and generates a release PR with all changes.

What does a pre-release code audit check in a plugin codebase?▼

A pre-release code audit performs a deep, read-only review of the plugin codebase to validate codebase integrity and version consistency before cutting a new release.

Do I need git and GitHub CLI installed to automate steer plugin releases?▼

Yes, automating steer plugin releases requires git, the GitHub CLI (gh), Python, and mise to execute version bumping, validate the codebase, and create release PRs through the GitHub API.

Can I use this release automation for projects other than steer plugins?▼

This release automation is specifically designed for steer plugins, applying to engineering workflows involving plugin maintenance and release management rather than general-purpose project releases.

How does automated semantic versioning determine the correct version bump?▼

Automated semantic versioning determines the correct bump by validating version consistency across the codebase during the pre-release audit, then applying the appropriate version increment based on detected changes.

What's the best way to ensure documentation is up-to-date before a plugin release?▼

The best way to ensure documentation is current before a plugin release is to run an automated release workflow that validates documentation as part of the pre-release audit and includes updates in the release PR.
