release

• Kill any turbo processes that might be running with SIGKILL
• Before beginning the release, verify that gcloud is logged in by running gcloud auth print-access-token >/dev/null. If it fails, run gcloud auth login, then repeat the check. Do not continue with the release until the check succeeds.
• Codex-specific: Before running release commands, make sure rbenv wins over the macOS system Ruby. Codex may start non-interactive shells with /usr/bin before ~/.rbenv/shims, causing Ruby 2.6 to be used even though the user's terminal uses Ruby 3.3.x. Run release commands that may invoke Ruby/Bundler with:

PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/shims:$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH" <command> Verify with PATH="$HOME/.rbenv/shims:$HOME/.rbenv/bin:$PATH" ruby --version; it should use the user's rbenv Ruby, not /usr/bin/ruby. This matters because the lambda Ruby package currently resolves gems such as json that require Ruby >= 2.7.

• Run npm login (I will manually do 2FA in the browser)
• Use op item get "Npmjs" --fields password --reveal --account remotiondev.1password.com to get the password for NPM.
• Use op item get "Npmjs" --otp --account remotiondev.1password.com to get a one-time password for 2FA.
• Run npm token create --name="PublishRemotionXXXXXX" --packages "remotion" --packages "create-video" --packages-and-scopes-permission read-write --bypass-2fa --scopes "@remotion" --otp=<otp>. Replace XXXXXX with a random string so we have a unique name. Use op item get "Npmjs" --otp --account remotiondev.1password.com to get the OTP and pass it via --otp=. It will ask for a password, pipe in the password using echo "$PASSWORD" |.
• Run bun i
• Run bun run build
• Run npm view remotion version to get the current version number
• Run bun set-version.ts <version>, where <version> is the current version plus 1. If the exit code is not 0, abort the entire release process immediately.
• Run cd packages/example && sh runlambda.sh && cd ../... If this fails, abort the release.
• Run NPMCONFIGTOKEN=<token> bun run release where <token> is the NPM token we just created
• Run bun run publishtemplates from the repository root to republish every template with the newly released packages. If any template fails to publish, stop the release workflow and report the failure.
• Generate a changelog in markdown and save it to /tmp/release-<version>.md:

- Run git log v<previousversion>..v<newversion> --oneline to get all commits - Extract PR numbers from merge commits - For each PR, run gh pr view <number> --json title,author,number,url --jq '"* \(.title) by @\(.author.login) in \(.url)"' - Categorize PRs into sections: "What's Changed", "Templates", "Docs", "Internal" - In "What's Changed", sort items so that entries for the same package are adjacent (no subheadings, just sorted order). Changes to the remotion core package should appear first - Strip redundant prefixes from PR titles (e.g. remove "Docs:" from items in the Docs section) - Linkify items whose PR added a new documentation page: run git diff --diff-filter=A --name-only v<previousversion>..v<newversion> -- 'packages/docs/docs/**/*.mdx' 'packages/docs/docs/**/.md' to list added docs pages, map each added page to the PR that introduced it, and wrap that item's title in a markdown link to the page (e.g. <title> by @author in <url>). Determine the URL from the page's slug: frontmatter if present, otherwise from its file path relative to packages/docs/docs/. Leave items without a new docs page unlinked. - "Templates" is a separate section for any template-\* changes - Check for genuinely new contributors by running gh api repos/remotion-dev/remotion/contributors --paginate --jq '.[].login' and comparing against PR authors. Only add a "New Contributors" section for authors not in that list - Add Full Changelog: https://github.com/remotion-dev/remotion/compare/v<previousversion>...v<newversion> at the bottom - Use the same format as previous GitHub releases (check with gh release view v<previous_version>) - Don't release until you get approval. Allow me to edit it before.
