# Publishes a GitHub Release when a v* tag is pushed (the release process in
# CONTRIBUTING.md): validates every manifest, packages each tool folder as a
# ZIP shaped for chrome://extensions → Load unpacked (the archive contains the
# tool folder itself), and attaches checksums. Uses the preinstalled gh CLI
# instead of a third-party release action. There is no Chrome Web Store
# distribution, and extensions loaded unpacked never auto-update.

Reject non-semantic release tags.

v* triggers the workflow for tags such as vtest and v1. Add an early check for ^v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+$. Otherwise, the workflow can publish a release without the required CHANGELOG section and use generated notes.

Do not interpolate tool into the Node program.

Preserve internal blank lines in release notes.

The sed command removes every blank line. This changes paragraph and list formatting in CHANGELOG sections that contain intentional spacing. Trim only leading and trailing blank lines.

GitHub CLI gh release create --verify-tag behavior missing tag official manual

💡 Result:

The --verify-tag flag in the GitHub CLI command gh release create is used to prevent the automatic creation of git tags [1][2]. By default, if you run gh release create and specify a tag that does not yet exist in the repository, the GitHub CLI will automatically create that tag on the remote repository based on the latest state of the default branch [1][3]. When you include the --verify-tag flag, the command will instead query the repository via the GitHub API to check if the specified git tag already exists [2][4]. If the tag is not found, the command will abort and return an error, preventing the release creation process from proceeding [1][2]. This flag was introduced in version 2.21.0 of the GitHub CLI to provide a safeguard against unintended tag creation [2]. It is particularly useful in automated workflows or release processes where a tag must be explicitly created or validated before a release can be published [4][5].

Citations:

Require the pushed tag to exist before publishing.

If the tag is missing, gh release create can create it from the default branch. Add --verify-tag to both command branches to prevent the release from pointing to the wrong commit.

## Release process

Releases are cut manually by a maintainer: bump the affected tool's `version` in its `manifest.json`, update [CHANGELOG.md](./CHANGELOG.md) (rename `Unreleased` to a dated version), commit, and tag `v<x.y.z>`. There is no publishing pipeline — consumers pin to tags of this repo.
Releases are cut by a maintainer: bump the affected tool's `version` in its `manifest.json`, update [CHANGELOG.md](./CHANGELOG.md), commit, and push a `v<x.y.z>` tag. The tag triggers the [Release workflow](./.github/workflows/release.yml), which validates manifests, packages each tool folder as a ZIP with checksums, and publishes the GitHub Release using that version's CHANGELOG section as the release notes. Consumers download a release ZIP and load the tool folder unpacked — there is no Chrome Web Store distribution and no auto-update.

## Deployment

There is no pipeline to ship: tools are loaded unpacked straight from a checkout of this repo. Distributing via the Chrome Web Store is a future decision; until then, pin consumers to a tag of this repo. Exported data never transits any server — it goes from the browser tab to the ZIP on disk.
Releases are published by pushing a `v<x.y.z>` tag: the [Release workflow](./.github/workflows/release.yml) validates every manifest, packages each tool folder as a ZIP (with a `checksums.txt`), and publishes a GitHub Release using that version's CHANGELOG section as the notes. To install from a release: download the tool's ZIP, unzip it, and load the resulting folder via `chrome://extensions` → **Load unpacked**. Extensions loaded unpacked never auto-update — a new release means downloading the new ZIP and replacing the folder. Chrome Web Store distribution is out of scope for this project. Exported data never transits any server — it goes from the browser tab to the ZIP on disk.

Correct the exported-data statement.

Exported data never transits any server conflicts with README.md Lines 102-104, which show the extension fetching data from the GHL backend. State that the extension does not upload exports to an additional service, then explain that the browser writes the returned data to a local ZIP.
