What/Why?

Adds a new project-scoped Claude Code skill at .claude/skills/release-catalyst-patch/SKILL.md that documents how to release a single Catalyst package patch (e.g. @bigcommerce/create-catalyst) without bundling it with other queued changesets in the open Version Packages PR.

The Changesets GitHub Action picks one mode per push to canary: when unconsumed changesets exist it refreshes the Version Packages PR and does not publish. To ship a single package ahead of the normal cadence, we quarantine the other changesets, run changeset version for just the target, hand changeset publish and the canary push back to the user, and create the GitHub release manually — CI's release step no-ops once the version is already on npm, so it never makes a release in this flow.

Mirrors the conventions of the existing committed skills (.claude/skills/release-catalyst/, .claude/skills/sync-makeswift/). The file had to be force-added because the user's global gitignore excludes .claude/, same as those precedents.

This skill captured the workflow used to ship @bigcommerce/create-catalyst@1.0.3 today.

Testing

  • Trigger via /release-catalyst-patch or intent phrases like "release just the CLI", "publish only one package".
  • Verify the skill appears in the available skills list (it loads automatically once committed).
  • Real validation will come the next time we need to do an isolated patch release.

Migration

None — additive only.

Document the workflow for shipping a single Catalyst package patch ahead of
the normal release cadence, without bundling it with other queued changesets
in the open Version Packages PR. Quarantines other changesets, runs
`changeset version` for the target, hands the publish + canary push back to
the user, and creates the GitHub release manually since the bot's release
flow only fires when CI itself publishes.
