Release Prep

Overview

Standardize release preparation with a safety-first checklist: validate quality and security, update versions and docs, build production artifacts, and prepare rollout/rollback plans.

When to Use

  • Preparing a release candidate or production deploy
  • Coordinating pre-release validation and documentation
  • Ensuring versioning, changelog, and build steps are consistent

Avoid when:

  • You only need a quick version bump or doc update
  • The release process is owned by a separate automation pipeline

Workflow

  1. Confirm release scope and version.
  2. Load the release preparation reference.
  3. Run pre-release validation (tests, security, performance).
  4. Update versions, changelog, and docs.
  5. Build production artifacts and validate.
  6. Produce deployment checklist and rollback plan.

Output

  • Release readiness checklist
  • Validation results and blockers
  • Deployment plan with rollback steps

Common Mistakes

  • Skipping security or performance checks
  • Shipping without updating changelog or docs
  • Building artifacts without validating environment parity
