What problem does it solve?
Manual, ad-hoc Paperclip release processes often skip critical steps like changelog drafting, smoke testing, and post-release follow-up, leading to incomplete or broken releases that impact users.
Core Features & Use Cases
- End-to-End Release Coordination: Manages the full lifecycle of both canary and stable Paperclip releases, from candidate selection to post-release follow-up.
- Automated Verification & Testing: Enforces pre-release verification gates and Docker smoke testing to catch issues before stable promotion.
- Use Case: When leadership requests a stable Paperclip release, this skill ensures all preconditions are met, the changelog is drafted, smoke tests pass, and announcement follow-up tasks are created, eliminating missed release steps.
Quick Start
Use the release skill to coordinate the next stable Paperclip release after the latest canary passes all verification checks.
