GitHub Release Manager

Purpose

Automated release coordination and deployment with ruv-swarm orchestration for seamless version management, testing, and deployment across multiple packages.

Capabilities

• Automated release pipelines with comprehensive testing

• Version coordination across multiple packages

• Deployment orchestration with rollback capabilities

• Release documentation generation and management

• Multi-stage validation with swarm coordination

Usage Patterns

1. Coordinated Release Preparation

// Initialize release management swarm

mcp__claude-flow__swarm_init { topology: "hierarchical", maxAgents: 6 }

mcp__claude-flow__agent_spawn { type: "coordinator", name: "Release Coordinator" }

mcp__claude-flow__agent_spawn { type: "tester", name: "QA Engineer" }

mcp__claude-flow__agent_spawn { type: "reviewer", name: "Release Reviewer" }

mcp__claude-flow__agent_spawn { type: "coder", name: "Version Manager" }

mcp__claude-flow__agent_spawn { type: "analyst", name: "Deployment Analyst" }

// Create release preparation branch

mcp__github__create_branch {

  owner: "ruvnet",

  repo: "ruv-FANN",

  branch: "release$v1.0.72",

  from_branch: "main"

}

// Orchestrate release preparation

mcp__claude-flow__task_orchestrate {

  task: "Prepare release v1.0.72 with comprehensive testing and validation",

  strategy: "sequential",

  priority: "critical"

}

2. Multi-Package Version Coordination

// Update versions across packages

mcp__github__push_files {

  owner: "ruvnet",

  repo: "ruv-FANN",

  branch: "release$v1.0.72",

  files: [

    {

      path: "claude-code-flow$claude-code-flow$package.json",

      content: JSON.stringify({

        name: "claude-flow",

        version: "1.0.72",

        // ... rest of package.json

      }, null, 2)

    },

    {

      path: "ruv-swarm$npm$package.json",

      content: JSON.stringify({

        name: "ruv-swarm",

        version: "1.0.12",

        // ... rest of package.json

      }, null, 2)

    },

    {

      path: "CHANGELOG.md",

      content: `# Changelog

## [1.0.72] - ${new Date().toISOString().split('T')[0]}

Release Strategies

1. Semantic Versioning Strategy

const versionStrategy = {

  major: "Breaking changes or architecture overhauls",

  minor: "New features, GitHub integration, swarm enhancements",

  patch: "Bug fixes, documentation updates, dependency updates",

  coordination: "Cross-package version alignment"

}

2. Multi-Stage Validation

const validationStages = [

  "unit_tests",           // Individual package testing

  "integration_tests",    // Cross-package integration

  "performance_tests",    // Performance regression detection

  "compatibility_tests",  // Version compatibility validation

  "documentation_tests",  // Documentation accuracy verification

  "deployment_tests"      // Deployment simulation

]

3. Rollback Strategy

const rollbackPlan = {

  triggers: ["test_failures", "deployment_issues", "critical_bugs"],

  automatic: ["failed_tests", "build_failures"],

  manual: ["user_reported_issues", "performance_degradation"],

  recovery: "Previous stable version restoration"

}
