# rust-release
The release/publishing pipeline for a Rust crate: Cargo semver (with the contested
MSRV policy), changelog tooling, the cargo publish playbook, supply-chain
maintenance (cargo-vet, Dependabot, RUSTSEC), and feature deprecation. For the
initial CI/clippy/deny/nextest setup, use `rust-quality`. For project scaffolding,
use `rust-scaffold`. For workspace concerns, use `rust-workspace`.

## §1. When this skill fires
**Use this skill when the user says any of:**
- "Publish my Rust crate to crates.io"
- "Set up release-plz / cargo-release / smart-release"
- "Bump the version on my crate"
- "Set up a changelog workflow"
- "Set up cargo-vet for supply-chain audits"
- "Deprecate a feature in my 1.x crate"
- "Bump MSRV safely"
- "Replace a dependency with a fork"
- "Set up Dependabot for Rust"
- "Yank a bad release from crates.io"
**DO NOT use this skill for:**
## CONTRAST
- NOT for: scaffold / Cargo.toml / edition / feature design — use rust-scaffold
- NOT for: workspace / member coordination / Cargo.toml inheritance — use rust-workspace
- NOT for: initial CI / clippy / nextest / deny setup — use rust-quality (this skill is the ongoing maintenance side of the supply-chain ladder)
- This skill covers the publish/ongoing-maintenance side; quality and scaffold are the initial-setup side
