Quick brief

This skill wraps release-plz as a bounded Rust release-preparation workflow. The agent inspects workspace changes, determines release-worthy crates, drafts version bumps, prepares changelog updates, and opens the handoff point as a release PR before any publish step happens.

How it works

What this skill actually does

Invoke it when a Rust workspace is approaching release and maintainers need a reproducible pre-publish pass. Use Cargo or hosting-platform release tools normally for simple manual releases. Use this skill when the job is specifically release PR preparation and changelog assembly from actual workspace deltas.

The scope boundary is release preparation for Rust crates and workspaces. It is not a generic CI/CD platform, package registry, or universal release automation product card.
