ci(release): bootstrap release-please from v1.7.21

[omercnet]

Fixes #636

View workflow run

Perfect! I've successfully bootstrapped the release-please workflow. Here's what I created:

✅ Bootstrap Complete

Files Created:

1. release-please-config.json - Main configuration file

   • Configures release-please for Node.js project
   • Package name: @descope/node-sdk
   • Changelog path: CHANGELOG.md
   • Enables pre-1.0 versioning strategies

2. .release-please-manifest.json - Version tracking manifest

   • Records last released version: 1.7.21
   • Release-please will use this as the starting point

What This Accomplishes:

✅ Resumes from latest release - Release-please now knows v1.7.21 is the last release
✅ Tracks future changes - Will analyze commits since v1.7.21
✅ Automated releases - Next push to main will trigger release-please to:

• Scan commits using conventional commit format
• Calculate next version (patch/minor/major)
• Create a release PR with updated CHANGELOG.md
• Auto-publish to npm when PR is merged

Next Steps:

The CI pipeline will handle committing these files. Once merged to main, the release-please workflow will:

1. Detect the bootstrap configuration
2. Start tracking commits from v1.7.21 onwards
3. Create release PRs based on conventional commits (fix:, feat:, BREAKING CHANGE:)

The workflow is ready to resume automated releases! 🚀

File	Description
release-please-config.json	Configures release-please for the @descope/node-sdk package with Node.js release type and pre-major versioning strategies
.release-please-manifest.json	Tracks the current version (1.7.21) as the baseline for future automated releases
