Cut and publish a new ClaudeGate release to the VS Code Marketplace and Open VSX. Use whenever the user asks to "make a release", "publish", "ship", "cut a version", "release vX.Y.Z", "push a new version to the marketplace", or bump the version after landing a change. Handles semver bump, CHANGELOG, tests, bundle, commit, tag, and publishing to both registries (`vsce` + `ovsx`) — pausing for confirmation before the irreversible publish. Trigger even if the user only says "publish this" or "ship it" after finishing a change.

# Release ClaudeGate ClaudeGate is a VS Code extension (`publisher: lntvan166`, `name: claudegate`). A release means: bump the version, record it in the CHANGELOG, verify it builds and tests pass, commit + tag it in git, and publish the `.vsix` to **two** registries — the VS Code Marketplace with `vsce`, and [Open VSX](https://open-vsx.org) with `ovsx`. Open VSX is the registry Cursor, VSCodium, and Windsurf pull from, so shipping there is what lets the extension **auto-update** in those editors — the Marketplace alone doesn't reach them. The publish step is **irreversible on both registries** — you cannot unpublish or overwrite a version number on either, and neither lets you re-push a version that's already up. So the flow front-loads every check that can fail (tests, bundle, auth) *before* committing anything, and **pauses for the user's explicit go-ahead** before publishing. Publish the **same `.vsix` artifact** to both registries — build it once with `vsce package`, then hand that one file to `vsce publish` and `ovsx publish`. That guarantees the two registries carry byte-identical builds instead of two independently-bundled ones. ## Before you start Confirm you're on `main` with a clean-enough tree, and gather the current state so you pick the right version: ```bash git branch --show-current # expect: main node -p "require('./package.json').version" # current version git tag --sort=-v:refname | head -5 # recent tags git stat
