Hackage Upload

Instructions

When the user asks to publish or upload to Hackage:

1. Identify the package cabal file and current version (in this repo it is claude.cabal):

``bash grep "^version:" *.cabal ``

1. Create the source distribution:

``bash cabal sdist ``

1. Upload to Hackage (replace X.Y.Z with actual version):

``bash cabal upload --publish dist-newstyle/sdist/claude-X.Y.Z.tar.gz ``

Pre-release checklist

Before uploading, these are required release gates. Do not upload until both are true:

• Version in the package cabal file has been bumped
• CHANGELOG.md has an entry for that exact version

Then verify the usual quality checks:

• All tests pass (cabal test)
• Code compiles without warnings (cabal build)

Notes

• The --publish flag publishes immediately. Without it, the package is uploaded as a candidate.
• You must have Hackage credentials configured (typically in ~/.cabal/config).
• First-time uploads of a package require manual approval on Hackage.
