Release

Build, sign, notarize, and publish a Prowl release.

1. Verify current branch is main: git branch --show-current
   • If not on main, abort and tell the user to switch first
2. Verify working tree is clean: git status --porcelain
   • If dirty, list the changes and ask whether to proceed or abort
3. Determine the version:
   • If $ARGUMENTS is provided, use it as the version (e.g., 2026.3.18)
   • Otherwise, default to today's date format and confirm with the user before proceeding
4. Generate release notes: ./doc-onevcat/scripts/release-notes.sh <VERSION>
   • This script compares HEAD against the previous release tag, gathers commits and PR descriptions, and generates user-facing notes via LLM into build/release-notes.md.
   • Read the generated build/release-notes.md, show the content to the user, and wait for explicit confirmation. If the user wants changes, edit the file directly.
   • Do NOT proceed to the next step until the user confirms the release notes.
5. Run the release script: ./doc-onevcat/scripts/release.sh <VERSION>
   • The script reads build/release-notes.md (required — refuses to run without it).
   • It handles: version bump, build, sign, notarize, DMG, appcast, GitHub Release, and Prowl-Site update. If the tag already exists (e.g., from a prior interrupted run), it skips the bump step automatically.
6. Report the GitHub release URL and remind the user to verify:
   • The DMG downloads and installs correctly
   • Sparkle update check works (launch app → Check for Updates)
