HTTP Client Python Bump and Release

Create a PR to bump dependencies and release a new version of the http-client-python package.

> Note: {REPO} refers to the root folder of the microsoft/typespec repository.

Prerequisites

Before starting, verify that npm-check-updates is available:

npx npm-check-updates --version

If the command fails or prompts for installation, install it globally:

npm install -g npm-check-updates

Workflow

  • Navigate to the package directory:
   cd {REPO}/packages/http-client-python
  • Reset and sync with main:
   git reset HEAD && git checkout . && git checkout origin/main && git pull origin main
  • Create release branch (use current date in MM-DD format):
   git checkout -b publish/python-release-{MM-DD}
  • Update dependencies:
   npx npm-check-updates -u --filter @typespec/*,@azure-tools/* --packageFile package.json
  • Update peerDependencies in package.json:
  • If format is ">=0.a.b <1.0.0": Update only the 0.a.b portion, keep the range format unchanged
  • If format is "^1.a.b": Update to the latest version
  • Verify devDependencies versions for specs:
  • Check @typespec/http-specs and @azure-tools/azure-http-specs
  • If the original version in package.json is newer than the updated value, keep the original version
  • Dev versions are typically in the form x.y.z-alpha.N-dev.M (e.g., 0.1.0-alpha.37-dev.3).

Example:

  • Original: @typespec/http-specs: 0.1.0-alpha.12-dev.5, updated by step 4 to 0.1.0-alpha.11 → keep 0.1.0-alpha.12-dev.5.
  • Original: @typespec/http-specs: 0.1.0-alpha.12-dev.5, updated by step 4 to 0.1.0-alpha.12 → keep 0.1.0-alpha.12 (step 4 works as expected).
  • Original: @azure-tools/azure-http-specs: 0.1.0-alpha.12-dev.2, updated to 0.1.0-alpha.11 → keep 0.1.0-alpha.12-dev.2.
  • Original: @azure-tools/azure-http-specs: 0.1.0-alpha.12-dev.2, updated to 0.1.0-alpha.12 → keep 0.1.0-alpha.12 (step 4 works as expected).
  • Run version change script:
   npm run change:version
  • Build and commit:
   npm install && npm run build && git add -u && git commit -m "bump version"
  • Push and create PR:
   cd {REPO}
   git push origin HEAD

10. Create PR with title [python] release new version and no description.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take microsoft/http-client-python-bump-and-release from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference npm, npx. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
