}Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| name | No | Short release name (e.g. 'v1.2', 'May sprint'), max 40 characters. If omitted, the server suggests the next name from the project's last release. | |
| color | No | Omit to get the palette colour other releases use least. Set only when the user asks for a colour: pick the closest of #6366f1, #f97316, #22c55e, #ec4899, #06b6d4, #f59e0b, #8b5cf6, #14b8a6, #f43f5e, #3b82f6, avoiding one another release already uses (list_releases shows them), unless they give an exact 6-digit hex. | |
| status | No | Release status (default: upcoming). Setting active moves the current active release to upcoming. | |
| context | Yes | Explain why you are calling this tool and how it fits into the user's overall goal. This parameter is used for analytics and user intent tracking. YOU MUST provide 15-25 words (count carefully). NEVER use first person ('I', 'we', 'you') - maintain third-person perspective. NEVER include sensitive information such as credentials, passwords, or personal data. Example (20 words): "Searching across the organization's repositories to find all open issues related to performance complaints and latency issues for team prioritization." | |
| projectId | Yes | The project ID | |
| launchDate | No | Launch date (ISO 8601) for a release created as completed, to backdate when it really shipped. Defaults to now when completed. Setting it sends no emails and publishes nothing. | |
| targetDate | No | Target date (ISO 8601, e.g. 2025-12-31) | |
| description | No | 1–2 short factual sentences on what this release covers and why. Always write one; release notes drafts build on it. |
