FAQPage Schema
How do I automate creating and merging pull requests for releases?

This Skill automates PR creation from feature branches, links them to work items, performs autonomy-gated auto-merge when allowed, and closes the associated work item upon successful deployment—eliminating manual coordination across PR review, merge, and work-item closure steps.

Can I link pull requests back to the original work item automatically?

Yes. The Skill creates PRs that reference the original work item and specification, ensuring traceability and maintaining context between deployment and tracked requirements throughout the release workflow.

How do I enforce autonomy controls on auto-merge during release?

Release includes autonomy gates that check permissions before auto-merging. Merge only proceeds when autonomy conditions are satisfied, preventing unauthorized deployments while automating compliant release paths.

What happens to the work item after deployment succeeds?

Upon successful deployment, the Skill automatically closes the work item and updates the session, completing the release cycle and signaling downstream stakeholders that the change is live.

Does this work with FABER Phase 5 workflows?

Yes. Release is designed for FABER Phase 5 workflows and integrates with workflow context including work_id, frame, architect, build, and evaluate components, returning standardized FABER responses.

What dependencies do I need to run release automation?

Release requires bash for scripting execution and jq for JSON data processing. These handle PR creation, merge validation, and work-item updates within the deployment pipeline.
