Release Process¶

Releases are automated with release-please and GitHub Actions.

How Releases Work¶

1. release-please runs on pushes to main and opens/updates a release PR.
2. The release PR updates:
3. docs/changelog.md
4. pyproject.toml (version bump)
5. Merging the release PR creates a Git tag and GitHub Release.
6. Docker images are built, signed, and published via the docker-build workflow.

Manual Trigger¶

You can also run the Release Please workflow manually from GitHub Actions (workflow_dispatch) to open or refresh the release PR.

Notes¶

• The changelog used by release-please lives at docs/changelog.md.
• Avoid manual version edits; use the release-please flow to keep tags and changelog consistent.
