+description: Create and push a release tag (e.g. /create-release 1.0.0)
+---
+
+Create a release tag and push it to origin. The GitHub Action will automatically build for all platforms and create the GitHub Release.
+
+## Steps
+
+1. Validate the version argument ($ARGUMENTS):
+   - Must be provided, otherwise show error and stop
+   - Must match semver format (e.g. 1.0.0, 0.9.1, 2.0.0-beta.1)
+
+2. Check for uncommitted changes:
+   - Run `git status --porcelain`
+   - If any output, warn the user and stop (commit first)
+
+3. Analyze changes since last release:
+   - Run `git log --oneline $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0 HEAD)..HEAD` to list all commits
+   - Read the changed files to understand context
+   - Write a concise, well-structured release summary in English with:
+     - A one-line overview
+     - Bullet points for each notable change (features, fixes, breaking changes)
+     - Keep it developer-friendly, no fluff
+
+4. Create release commit with the summary as message:
+   - Run `git commit --allow-empty -m "release v$ARGUMENTS\n\n<summary>"`
+   - The commit message IS the release notes — the GitHub Action picks it up automatically
+
+5. Create annotated tag on that commit:
+   - Run `git tag -a v$ARGUMENTS -m "Release v$ARGUMENTS"`
+
+6. Push commit and tag separately (pushing both in one step causes GitHub Actions to skip the release workflow):
+   - Run `git push origin main` (or current branch)
+   - Run `git push origin v$ARGUMENTS`
+
+7. Confirm success with the version number

+# Changelog

+All notable changes to kctl-tui will be documented in this file.
+
+The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/).
+
+## [Unreleased]
+
+## [0.2.0] - 2026-08-09
+
+### Added
+- **Windows support** via [psmux](https://github.com/marlocarlo/psmux) as tmux-compatible multiplexer
+- `install.ps1` PowerShell install script for Windows
+- `--help` flag with full usage documentation
+- `--version` / `-v` flag (set via `-ldflags` at build time)
+- `kctl-tui doctor` command to verify tools, config and cluster connectivity
+- `kctl-tui config check` command to validate `~/.kctl-tui/config.yaml`
+- `--verbose` flag for debug logging of all kubectl/aws commands to stderr
+- Binary secret value detection (`IsBinary`) — base64 or non-UTF-8 content is flagged
+- ExternalSecret name validation before force-sync
+- `CheckTool()` and `CheckAWSAuth()` helpers for pre-flight checks
+- Diff table scroll support (j/k, up/down arrows)
+- `--command pods` flag for k9s to start directly in pod view
+- `--namespace` flag for k9s (Windows compatibility)
+
+### Fixed
+- Tmux session cleanup: stale sessions are killed before creating new ones
+- Panel path: uses `os.Executable()` instead of PATH lookup for correct binary
+- k9s on Windows: `--namespace` instead of `-n`, direct pods view
+- `--help` always shows usage and exits (no fallthrough to TUI)
+- Unknown subcommands show error message + usage (exit 1)
+- Panel quit: properly closes tmux session and exits
+- Bubbles list filter disabled to prevent stuck filter state after tmux return
+
+### Changed
+- Config uses `k8s_secret_name_template` for Kubernetes secret names (separate from AWS `secret_name_template`)
+- Contexts resolved via template (`context_template`) instead of live kubectl discovery
+- Panel redesigned: env-first menu (quit/beta/prod) with secrets sync + redeploy
+- Full-mode navigation starts at team selection with default context
+- `tea.ExecProcess` only used for `tmux attach` — setup commands run synchronously
+
+### Removed
+- Context-pair logic (superseded by env-template based context resolution)
+- Live kubectl discovery (superseded by config templates)
+
+## [0.1.0] - 2026-07-XX
+
+### Added
+- Initial release with Bubble Tea TUI
+- 3-pane tmux orchestration (control panel + 2x k9s)
+- Team/namespace navigation with kubectl context switching
+- Panel mode with redeploy and secrets diff/force-sync
+- AWS SSO integration with interactive login prompt
+- CI/CD pipeline with Go build and release
+- Linux/macOS install script

+# Contributing to kctl-tui
+
+Thanks for your interest in contributing! This document explains how to get
+started.
+
+## Development Setup
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/skoelle/kctl-tui.git
+cd kctl-tui
+go mod download
+```
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Go 1.22+
+- kubectl, k9s, tmux (or psmux on Windows)
+- An active Kubernetes cluster for integration testing
+
+### Running Locally
+
+```bash
+go run ./cmd/kctl-tui
+```
+
+### Building
+
+```bash
+go build -o kctl-tui ./cmd/kctl-tui
+```
+
+### With Version Tag
+
+```bash
+go build -ldflags "-X main.version=v0.2.0" -o kctl-tui ./cmd/kctl-tui
+```
+
+## Project Structure
+
+```
+cmd/kctl-tui/          Entry points (main, full mode, panel mode)
+internal/config/       YAML config loading and template resolution
+internal/kctl/         Pure logic (secret diffing, template engine)
+internal/kubeexec/     kubectl/aws/tmux wrappers (side effects only)
+```
+
+### Architecture Rules
+
+- **Pure logic** goes into `internal/kctl` or `internal/config` — no exec, no I/O.
+- **Side effects** (running kubectl, aws, tmux) go into `internal/kubeexec`.
+- **UI** lives in `cmd/kctl-tui/` — Bubble Tea models, views, handlers.
+- Unit tests cover pure logic only. Side-effect packages are tested via
+  integration/manual tests.
+
+## Testing
+
+```bash
+go vet ./...       # static analysis
+go test ./...      # unit tests
+```
+
+There are no integration tests yet. Manual testing against a real cluster is
+expected for UI and kubeexec changes.
+
+## Code Style
+
+- Standard Go formatting (`gofmt`).
+- No comments unless the logic is non-obvious.
+- Error messages should be actionable — tell the user what to fix.
+- Log commands with `kubeexec.VerboseLog()` when `--verbose` is active.
+
+## Commits
+
+- One logical change per commit.
+- Imperative mood in commit messages ("Add ...", "Fix ...", "Remove ...").
+- No co-authors in commits.
+
+## Pull Requests
+
+1. Fork the repo and create a feature branch.
+2. Make your changes following the style guide above.
+3. Run `go vet` and `go test`.
+4. Open a PR against `main` with a clear description of what changed and why.
+5. Reference any related issues.
+
+## Issues
+
+- Use the provided issue templates.
+- Include your OS, Go version, and kctl-tui version.
+- For bugs: steps to reproduce, expected vs actual behavior.

+## Bugfix Sprint — between v0.2.0 and v0.3.0
+
+- [ ] **Dead code** `cmd/kctl-tui/main.go:47-49` — empty
+      `if len(filtered) == 0` block with comment. Remove.
+- [ ] **Redundant logic** `internal/kctl/diff.go:60-63` —
+      `if lb || rb { match = l == r }` is identical to the line above.
+      Either dead or misunderstood.
+- [ ] **Diff-scroll is a no-op** `cmd/kctl-tui/panel.go:398-413` —
+      `renderDiffTable` is always called with `visibleHeight=0`, so
+      `end = len(entries)` is always true. j/k/arrows only change the
+      offset text but the table is always fully rendered. The CHANGELOG
+      promises "Diff table scroll support" but the feature is incomplete.
+- [ ] **README duplicate** `README.md:98-102` — "This downloads the latest
+      release binary..." appears twice (once "to your PATH", once
+      "to /usr/local/bin"). Edit leftover.
+- [ ] **go mod tidy in CI** `build.yml` — mutates `go.sum` during the
+      build instead of enforcing a tidy check. If someone forgets to tidy,
+      it's silently fixed instead of blocking the PR.
+- [ ] **Bubbles filter disabled** `full.go:53`, `panel.go:87` — workaround
+      for the stuck-filter bug (commit 7db58b6). Users can no longer
+      type-to-filter. Worth restoring with a proper fix later.
+- [ ] **Kleinkram:**
+  - `fmt.Errorf("%s", msg)` → `errors.New(msg)` in `kubeexec.go:41`
+  - `helpers.go` is a pointless 1:1 passthrough to the `kctl` package
+  - `IsBinary` also marks UTF-8 special chars (>0x7F) as "binary"
+
+- [ ] **SECURITY.md** — fehlt, besonders wichtig für ein Tool mit
+      Secret-Workflows.
+- [ ] **dependabot.yml** — automatische Dependency-Updates.
+- [ ] **Checksummen für Release-Assets** — CI erzeugt Binaries aber keine
+      `.sha256`-Dateien; für `curl | bash`-Install wichtig.
+- [ ] **Makefile / justfile** — Build/Test/Vet-Komfort.
+- [ ] **golangci-lint** — `go vet` allein ist dünn; optional aber empfohlen.
+- [ ] **PLAN.md aufräumen** — erledigte Phasen als „Done" markieren,
+      offene Items konsolidieren.
+
+---
+
+## Roadmap
+
+### v0.3.0 — client-go integration
+
+Replace kubectl shell-outs with direct API calls via `client-go`.
+
+- [ ] Add `internal/kubeclient` package using `client-go` for:
+      - Context/namespace/label queries (faster than kubectl JSON parsing)
+      - Deployment list and rollout restart/status
+      - Secret fetch (AWS Secrets Manager via SDK, K8s secrets via API)
+      - ExternalSecret annotation update
+- [ ] Keep `internal/kubeexec` as fallback for operations not yet
+      covered by `client-go`
+- [ ] Remove `kind`/`k3d` integration test plan (client-go has its own
+      test coverage)
+- [ ] Add unit tests with `fake.Clientset` for the new package
+
+### v1.0 — Stable release
+
+Production-ready with package manager support and documentation.
+
+- [ ] Homebrew tap (`skoelle/homebrew-tap`) with `kctl-tui` formula
+- [ ] Scoop manifest (`skoelle/scoop-bucket`) for Windows
+- [ ] Full test coverage for `internal/kubeclient`
+- [ ] Documentation: architecture diagram, config reference, troubleshooting
+- [ ] Semantic versioning policy documented
+- [ ] Deprecation policy for config schema changes
