Automating release preparation involves executing repository scripts, classifying version types, and reviewing documentation before taking external actions. An inspect-first workflow ensures all readiness checks pass locally prior to GitHub handoff.

An inspect-first workflow for version management ensures all automated checks, script executions, and documentation reviews are completed locally before any external release actions are triggered. This prevents deploying incomplete versions.

Classify release types like stable, release candidate, and nightly by passing the target version string to the release preparation command. The workflow parses the version format to determine the appropriate release classification.

Yes, you need Node.js and ripgrep installed to run these release automation scripts. The workflow also requires git for version control operations and optionally gh for GitHub handoff commands.

Yes, you can use gh for GitHub handoff after local release preparation. The workflow completes local script execution and documentation review first, then optionally uses gh to push the release externally.

The limitation of automating version management with repository scripts is that the workflow is bound to specific existing scripts and requires strict dependencies like Node.js, ripgrep, and git, restricting use outside the targeted repository environment.
