Details
From the project READMEAdvisory only. Do not bump versions, merge a release PR, or use publish credentials. Read the repository's release docs first.
- Diff against
main(feature PR) or the previousv*tag (release PR). List payload paths from those docs (Basilic example:apps/api|web|mobile,packages/,tools/,scripts/,.cursor/,.agents/, generator). - Suggest a conventional title. Flag
docs/chore/test/ci/stylewhen payload paths changed unless the body hasskip-release: true. - Note generator CLI, template include/exclude, and docs snapshot impact. Generated trees must not gain the documentation app or the generator.
- Draft user-facing changelog bullets and required adopter actions. Keep the repo's release changelog authoritative (Basilic: Release Please).
- Link tests, classification, and (on a release PR) scaffold acceptance. Stop if a human gate is missing.
