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:

   • Run git push origin main --tags (or current branch)

7. Confirm success with the version number
