SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Announcing software releases requires synthesizing evidence from multiple sources into a clear, accurate, and channel-appropriate message. This Skill eliminates guesswork by enforcing evidence-based drafting for OpenClaw beta, stable, and extended-stable releases.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Evidence-Based Drafting: Reads GitHub release bodies, CHANGELOG.md sections, commits, registry metadata, and validation status before writing copy.
  • Channel-Specific Templates: Generates appropriate copy for beta, stable, and extended-stable channels with correct update commands and risk framing.
  • Use Case: After shipping OpenClaw 2026.5.25-beta.1, use this Skill to produce a Discord announcement that highlights user-observable changes, includes the correct openclaw update --channel beta --yes command, and links to the GitHub release.

Quick Start

Frequently Asked Questions about release-openclaw-announcement

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I announce a beta release on Discord?

Draft the announcement from GitHub release body, CHANGELOG.md, and registry metadata. Include the exact version, beta risk framing, focused test areas, the `openclaw update --channel beta --yes` command, and a link to the GitHub release.

What evidence should I gather before writing a release announcement?

Read the GitHub release body or immutable tag, the CHANGELOG.md section for the released version, commits since the previous shipped version, registry metadata for the exact version, and relevant validation status.

Can I post the announcement directly through OpenClaw?

No. Use the `$discord-user-post` skill to operate the logged-in Discord desktop app as the user. Never use OpenClaw channel sends, bots, webhooks, relays, or tokens for posting.

Why are npm install commands excluded from beta announcements?

Beta announcements promote the `openclaw update --channel beta --yes` command and the openclaw.ai install path. npm install commands are only included when the operator explicitly asks for npm-specific copy.

What is the difference between stable and extended-stable announcement wording?

Stable announcements use `openclaw update --channel stable --yes`. Extended-stable announcements omit `--yes` so users moving from newer regular stable see the downgrade warning, and they avoid inheriting regular stable platform claims.
