Semantic Versioning Skill

This skill helps determine appropriate version bumps following Semantic Versioning.

Version Format

MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH
  • MAJOR: Breaking changes
  • MINOR: New features, backwards compatible
  • PATCH: Bug fixes, backwards compatible

Version Bump Decision Tree

MAJOR (X.0.0) - Breaking Changes

Bump MAJOR when you make incompatible API changes:

  • Removed public functions, methods, or types
  • Changed function signatures (parameters, return types)
  • Renamed public APIs
  • Changed default behavior that breaks existing usage
  • Removed CLI flags or changed their meaning
  • Changed configuration file format incompatibly

MINOR (0.X.0) - New Features

Bump MINOR when you add functionality in a backwards compatible manner:

  • New commands or subcommands
  • New CLI flags
  • New configuration options
  • New output formats
  • New integrations or providers

PATCH (0.0.X) - Bug Fixes

Bump PATCH when you make backwards compatible bug fixes:

  • Fix incorrect behavior
  • Fix crashes or errors
  • Performance improvements (no API changes)
  • Documentation fixes
  • Internal refactoring (no behavior changes)

Pre-1.0 Versioning

For versions < 1.0.0 (like this project):

  • MINOR can include breaking changes
  • PATCH is for bug fixes and small features
  • More flexibility before reaching stability

Instructions

  1. Review all changes since last release:

    bash
    1git log --oneline $(git describe --tags --abbrev=0)..HEAD

  2. Check for breaking changes:

    • Removed or renamed public APIs?
    • Changed default behaviors?
    • Incompatible configuration changes?

  3. If breaking changes exist -> MAJOR bump

  4. If new features exist -> MINOR bump

  5. If only fixes/refactoring -> PATCH bump

Version Update Locations

When bumping version, update:

  1. Cargo.toml - version = "X.Y.Z"
  2. CHANGELOG.md - Add ## [X.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD section
  3. Version links - Update comparison URLs at bottom of CHANGELOG.md
