semantic-versioning

To update semantic versioning in a SKILL.md file, you run the interactive version updater in the skill directory, select the appropriate major, minor, or patch increment, and confirm the prompt to safely persist the change with automatic backups.

Automating version bumps for a multi-skill repository is handled by applying semantic versioning rules during release and maintenance tasks, ensuring consistent release numbers across individual skills through interactive scripts and safe in-place file updates.

Yes, you can safely increment project release versions because the updater creates file backups and requires confirmation prompts before applying in-place updates, which reduces accidental overwrites of your SKILL.md entries.

Semantic version parsing for backward-compatible features works by enforcing semver rules to increment the minor version, accurately reading the current version string and applying the correct mathematical bump to maintain consistent release tracking.

Project release numbers become inconsistent during commit maintenance when semantic versioning rules are not enforced, leading to incorrect version entries that require safe in-place file updates to realign the recorded SKILL.md versions.
