Skill content
View source on GitHubname: publish description: "Publish oh-my-opencode to npm by triggering the GitHub Actions publish workflow and verifying its artifacts. Ship-only: never runs pre-publish-review or re-reviews merged code unless the user explicitly asks. Argument: <patch|minor|major|explicit-semver>. Triggers: publish, release, deploy, npm publish."
You are the release manager for oh-my-opencode. Execute the FULL publish workflow from start to finish.
CRITICAL: PUBLISH IS SHIP-ONLY — GO STRAIGHT TO THE WORKFLOW
origin/dev is already gated: every PR and push ran CI (test/typecheck/codex-compatibility on 3 OSes), and the publish workflow re-runs those same gates before anything is published.
- NEVER run
/pre-publish-review,/review-work, or any code re-review as part of a publish request. Those run ONLY when the user explicitly asks for a review. - NEVER "fix" code, open PRs, or enter fix-and-re-audit loops during a publish. If the workflow fails or something looks broken, report it and STOP — a publish is the wrong place to repair the tree.
- A publish request with a bump type goes from Step 0 to Step 3 (trigger) in minutes. The only human-scale work is release notes, drafted while CI runs.
CRITICAL: FULL WORKFLOW MEANS THREE RELEASE SURFACES
Publishing is complete only after all release surfaces are verified:
| Release layer | Surface | Required proof |
|---|---|---|
| omo pure components | Core/MCP/shared-skill changes inside the published package payload | Release notes call out layer-specific version impact (from the workflow changelog, or /get-unpublished-changes when the user requested it). |
| omo opencode | oh-my-opencode and oh-my-openagent npm packages plus platform packages | npm versions and GitHub release exist for the selected bump. |
| omo codex | lazycodex-ai, Codex plugin metadata, and code-yeongyu/lazycodex marketplace release | Codex plugin metadata is stamped with the release version, lazycodex-ai publishes, and the LazyCodex repo release is created when the marketplace payload changed. |
The publish workflow must not be reported complete while any of oh-my-opencode, oh-my-openagent, lazycodex-ai, or code-yeongyu/lazycodex verification is unresolved.
CRITICAL: FULL WORKFLOW MEANS DISCORD TOO
Publishing is not complete until the Discord release announcement has been attempted.
- DO NOT stop after creating the GitHub release.
- DO NOT stop after drafting or applying release notes.
- DO NOT wait for a second user acknowledgement if the user already confirmed the publish.
- After the release notes are finalized, immediately run Step 7.5 and post to Discord.
- If Discord posting fails after authentication/retry, report the failure clearly and continue the remaining verification steps. A skipped Discord step is a workflow failure.
CRITICAL: NO EARLY TURN-END AFTER TRIGGER (COMPLETION CONTRACT)
Once gh workflow run publish succeeds, the publish is NOT done. A prior session forgot this: it triggered the workflow and ended its turn, leaving the release unverified, the enhanced summary unwritten, and the Discord announcement unsent. That mistake is why this section exists.
After Step 3 (trigger), you MUST drive the run to a terminal conclusion AND complete every post-trigger step before ending your turn. You may NOT end the turn, hand off, or stop for the day while ANY of these is unresolved:
- Run conclusion —
gh run view <id> --json conclusionmust returnsuccess(poll while drafting notes; never sleep idle). - Release exists — Step 5:
gh release view v${NEW_VERSION}resolves. - Enhanced summary applied — Step 6 + Step 7: draft (mandatory for patch/minor/major) AND
gh release edit --notes-fileapplied. "Patch is optional" is wrong; patch summaries are MANDATORY. - Discord announced — Step 7.5:
agent-discordbot message sendattempted; either a message id is recorded OR a clear failure is reported to the user. A skipped Discord step is a workflow failure. - npm verified — Step 8:
npm view oh-my-opencode version(and oh-my-openagent, lazycodex-ai) shows${NEW_VERSION}.
Only after all five are green may you end the turn. If the run fails, run gh run view <id> --log-failed, report it, and STOP (do not repair the tree mid-publish). If a post-trigger step fails for an external reason (npm propagation, Discord auth), report it clearly and continue the remaining steps — do not let one failure abort the rest.
This contract applies to the slash-command copies (.agents/command/publish.md, .opencode/command/publish.md) too; they are kept byte-identical to this skill per the .agents/AGENTS.md drift rule.
CRITICAL: ARGUMENT REQUIREMENT
You MUST receive one release selector from the user. Valid options:
patch: Bug fixes, backward-compatible (1.1.7 → 1.1.8)minor: New features, backward-compatible (1.1.7 → 1.2.0)major: Breaking changes (1.1.7 → 2.0.0)- An explicit valid semantic version, including a prerelease such as
5.0.0-beta.9
If the user did not provide a release selector, STOP IMMEDIATELY and ask:
"To proceed with deployment, specify
patch,minor,major, or an explicit semantic version such as5.0.0-beta.9."
Reject any other value. Do not infer or repair malformed versions.
STEP 0: REGISTER TODO LIST (MANDATORY FIRST ACTION)
Before doing ANYTHING else, create a detailed todo list using TodoWrite:
[
{ "id": "confirm-release-input", "content": "Confirm release selector with user (patch/minor/major or explicit semver)", "status": "in_progress", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "check-uncommitted", "content": "Check for uncommitted changes and commit if needed", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "sync-remote", "content": "Sync with remote (pull --rebase && push if unpushed commits)", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "run-workflow", "content": "Trigger GitHub Actions publish workflow", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "wait-workflow", "content": "Wait for workflow completion (poll every 30s)", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "verify-and-preview", "content": "Verify release created + preview auto-generated changelog & contributor thanks", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "draft-summary", "content": "Draft enhanced release summary (mandatory for all release types)", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "apply-summary", "content": "Prepend enhanced summary to release", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "discord-announce", "content": "MANDATORY: post release announcement to Discord channel immediately after release notes are finalized", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "verify-npm", "content": "Verify npm package published successfully", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "verify-lazycodex", "content": "Verify lazycodex-ai publish, Codex plugin metadata version stamp, and code-yeongyu/lazycodex release/sync", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "verify-platform-binaries", "content": "Spot-check platform binary packages on npm", "status": "pending", "priority": "high" },
{ "id": "final-confirmation", "content": "Final confirmation to user with links", "status": "pending", "priority": "low" }
]
Mark each todo as in_progress when starting, completed when done. ONE AT A TIME.
STEP 1: CONFIRM AND CLASSIFY THE RELEASE SELECTOR
If the user already supplied the selector in the command argument or message, that IS the confirmation. Parse it exactly once:
RELEASE_INPUT="${ARGUMENTS}"
if [[ "$RELEASE_INPUT" =~ ^(patch|minor|major)$ ]]; then
RELEASE_KIND=bump
elif [[ "$RELEASE_INPUT" =~ ^([0-9]+\.){2}[0-9]+(-[0-9A-Za-z]+(\.[0-9A-Za-z]+)*)?$ ]]; then
RELEASE_KIND=version
else
echo "Invalid release selector: $RELEASE_INPUT" >&2
exit 1
fi
Only ask and wait when no selector was provided.
STEP 2: CHECK UNCOMMITTED CHANGES
Run: git status --porcelain
- If there are uncommitted changes, warn user and ask if they want to commit first
- If clean, proceed
STEP 2.5: SYNC WITH REMOTE (MANDATORY)
Check if there are unpushed commits:
git log @{u}..HEAD --oneline
If there are unpushed commits, you MUST sync before triggering workflow:
git pull --rebase && git push
This ensures the GitHub Actions workflow runs on the latest code including all local commits.
STEP 3: TRIGGER GITHUB ACTIONS WORKFLOW
Dispatch from dev, pass bump selectors through bump, and pass exact versions through version. The required bump input remains patch for explicit-version dispatches but is ignored by the workflow because version takes precedence.
if [ "$RELEASE_KIND" = bump ]; then
RUN_URL="$(gh workflow run publish.yml --ref dev -f "bump=${RELEASE_INPUT}")"
else
RUN_URL="$(gh workflow run publish.yml --ref dev -f bump=patch -f "version=${RELEASE_INPUT}")"
fi
if ! [[ "$RUN_URL" =~ ^https://github.com/code-yeongyu/oh-my-openagent/actions/runs/[0-9]+$ ]]; then
echo "Publish dispatch did not return an exact workflow run URL: $RUN_URL" >&2
exit 1
fi
RUN_ID="${RUN_URL##*/}"
if ! [[ "$RUN_ID" =~ ^[0-9]+$ ]]; then
echo "Publish dispatch returned an invalid run ID: $RUN_ID" >&2
exit 1
fi
gh run view "${RUN_ID}" --json databaseId,status,url --jq '{databaseId,status,url}'
The returned run ID owns this release attempt. Never replace it with a latest-run lookup.
STEP 4: WAIT FOR WORKFLOW COMPLETION
The publish run is a single workflow with sequential stages. Expected timeline (from recent real runs, ~30 min total):
| Stage (job) | What it does | Typical |
|---|---|---|
| test / typecheck / codex-compatibility (3 OS) | Re-runs the CI gates on the release source | 4–8 min (Windows is the long pole) |
| prepare-release-state | Stamps versions, opens + auto-merges the release: vX.Y.Z PR, waits for that PR's required CI checks | 10–15 min (dominant stage) |
| publish-platform (build + publish, 12 targets) | Builds and publishes both platform package families | 3–4 min |
| publish-main → release | Publishes oh-my-opencode / oh-my-openagent / lazycodex-ai, creates the GitHub release, syncs code-yeongyu/lazycodex | 4–6 min |
Poll job-level status every 30 seconds and report stage transitions to the user:
gh run view "${RUN_ID}" --json status,conclusion,jobs --jq '{status, conclusion, stage: ([.jobs[] | select(.status=="in_progress") | .name] | join(", "))}'
IMPORTANT: Use polling loop, NOT sleep commands. Use the waiting time to draft the enhanced release summary (Step 6) — do not sit idle, and do not start any review activity.
If conclusion is failure, show error and stop:
gh run view "${RUN_ID}" --log-failed
STEP 5: VERIFY RELEASE & PREVIEW AUTO-GENERATED CONTENT
Two goals: confirm the release exists, then show the user what the workflow already generated.
# Pull latest (workflow committed version bump)
git pull --rebase
NEW_VERSION=$(node -p "require('./package.json').version")
# Verify release exists on GitHub
gh release view "v${NEW_VERSION}" --json tagName,url --jq '{tag: .tagName, url: .url}'
Release notes are written BEFORE the release, not after.
The release body is extracted from the CHANGELOG.md section for this version. Author the user-facing
notes under ## [Unreleased] and land them before dispatching /publish; release-state preparation
stamps that heading into ## [<version>] - <UTC date> and commits it with the release state, so the
published commit already carries its own notes.
Preview exactly what the release body will be:
bun run script/generate-changelog.ts > /tmp/contributors.md
bun run script/print-release-notes.ts "${NEW_VERSION}" /tmp/contributors.md
<agent-instruction>
After running the preview, preTruncated for display — read the full file on GitHub.
