Release

Keep the alpha launchable.

Release checks make sure the CLI, engine, MCP server, VS Code extension, docs, CI, demo workspace, and Pages site stay coherent.

Run the full local check.

npm run release:check

This is the default confidence command before a maintainer commits, tags, publishes, or announces anything.

What it covers.

  • Required docs, package metadata, and Pages files.
  • Node test suite and syntax checks.
  • Workspace doctor and demo smoke path.
  • VS Code manifest readiness and CI workflow coverage.

GitHub Pages settings.

Source: Deploy from a branch
Branch: main
Folder: /docs

The expected public URL is `https://contextdelta.github.io/context-delta-engine/`.

Before public announcement.

Run on real repositories, validate MCP flows in multiple clients, capture screenshots or a short demo, and create the first GitHub release from the maintainer account.
