ossctl

Release & readiness coordinator — an AI-first Rust CLI that takes any repository to open-source release quality and cuts releases from it, safely and reproducibly.

ossctl is the deterministic engine behind a family of /oss-* Claude Code skills. It owns the parts that must be exact and identical for every caller:

• ossctl contract show | validate — the single reader/validator of a project's OSS-RELEASE.md release contract (normalizes, materializes defaults, enforces floors).
• ossctl facts — deterministic repo-fact detection (ecosystems, packages, CI, tags, maturity).
• ossctl audit — readiness scoring against the gated core (README + LICENSE + CI) and the tier-scaled canon.
• ossctl release plan | cut | resume | verify | show | list | abandon — a resumable, journaled, per-ecosystem release-cut state machine with a sealed content-addressed approval plan.
• ossctl skill | doctor | version — companion-skill installer, self-diagnostics, and the version/schema surface.

The prose /oss-* skills (README/LICENSE authoring, CI, changelog, contributing, security policy, architecture docs, and the orchestrator) ship bundled with the binary and are thin callers of it. The binary is the source of truth.
