SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the tedious and error-prone process of deleting all assets from a GitHub release, which is crucial when preparing to re-upload new artifacts or clean up a draft release.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Bulk Asset Deletion: Programmatically identify and delete all assets associated with a specified GitHub release tag.
  • Deletion Verification: Confirm that all assets have been successfully removed from the release.
  • Use Case: A release manager needs to clear all existing firmware hex files and configurator packages from a draft INAV release before uploading a new, corrected set of artifacts. This skill ensures a clean slate for the upload.

Quick Start

Remove all assets from the INAV 9.0.0-RC2 release in the 'iNavFlight/inav' repository.
