# Install & Publish codeclaw

## 1. Run the release script

```bash
./scripts/release.sh
```

This script handles: version bump -> build -> npm link -> verify -> git commit/tag/push -> wait for CI.

If the script fails, diagnose and fix the issue, then re-run it.

## 2. Write release notes

After CI creates the GitHub Release, update it with meaningful release notes:

1. Run `git log v<previous-version>..v<new-version> --oneline --no-merges` to collect all commits since the last release.
2. Summarize changes into categories (use only relevant ones, skip empty categories):
   - **New Features** - new user-facing functionality
   - **Improvements** - enhancements to existing features
   - **Bug Fixes** - resolved issues
   - **Internal** - refactors, dependency updates, CI changes
3. Write concise, user-friendly descriptions (not raw commit messages).
4. Update the GitHub Release using:
   ```
   gh release edit v<new-version> --notes "$(cat <<'EOF'
   ## What's Changed

   EOF
   )"
   ```
5. Verify the release notes look correct: `gh release view v<new-version>`.

## Notes

- `npm link` creates a global symlink - rebuild with `npm run build` after code changes.
- The `files` field in `package.json` controls what gets published: `dist/`, `LICENSE`, `README.md`.
- CI pipeline (`.github/workflows/release.yml`): builds, publishes to npm, and creates GitHub Release on `v*` tag push.
- To uninstall locally: `npm unlink -g codeclaw`.
