- Do NOT run
make release— it is interactive (prompts for version strategy and confirmation). Not agent-safe. - Do NOT simulate a release by manually running git tag, push, or gh release create commands. The release process is user-driven, not agent-driven.
- If the user wants to release, explain the interactive flow and hand it off — do not execute any part of it.
