Validates release readiness before creating a release.

Purpose

This skill validates that all artifacts are complete and consistent for release:

Spec kit artifacts: spec.md, plan.md, tasks.md exist and are complete
Documentation: README.md, CHANGELOG.md have required sections
Versioning: Version numbers are consistent across package.json and CHANGELOG
API docs: API documentation matches contract specifications

Output

The skill outputs a ReleaseChecklist with:

Overall readiness status (Ready/Not Ready)
Individual check items with pass/fail/skip status
Version consistency information
Specific issues to address before release

Usage

This is a manual skill - run it before creating a release:

npx skills run release-check

Or via AI agent:

User: Check if we're ready for release
