release-safety

name: release-safety description: Release safety rules. INVOKE WHEN: yarn release, npm publish, release canary, release packages, publishing, skip checks, skip tests. NEVER skip checks or tests without explicit permission.

release safety

rules for running releases in this monorepo.

rules

• NEVER add --skip-checks unless user explicitly says "skip checks"
• NEVER add --skip-tests unless user explicitly says "skip tests"
• if checks or tests fail, FIX THE ISSUES instead of skipping
• ask user before adding any skip flags
• the point of checks is to catch problems before publishing

when things fail

1. read the error output carefully
2. fix the underlying issue
3. re-run the release
4. do NOT just skip the failing step

common flags

safe flags:

• --canary - publish canary version
• --ci - run in ci mode
• --dirty - allow dirty working directory
• --build-fast - faster builds

dangerous flags (require explicit permission):

• --skip-checks - skips type checking
• --skip-tests - skips test suite
• --skip-build - skips building packages
