Claude Native Skill

Monitor Claude Code (the CLI tool) release history and auto-generate GitHub issues for each new version that has not yet been tracked. Replaces the deprecated customclaw Airflow-based monitoring (deprecated 2026-03-18).

Options

--backfill    Process ALL versions >= v2.1.86 (default behavior when flag is present)
              Without flag: only check the latest 5 releases
--dry-run     Show what issues would be created without actually creating them

Workflow

Phase 1: Fetch CC Releases

Fetch all Claude Code releases from the GitHub API:

gh api repos/anthropics/claude-code/releases \
  --paginate \
  --jq '.[] | {tag_name: .tag_name, published_at: .published_at, html_url: .html_url, body: .body}'

• Without --backfill: fetch only the latest 5 releases (--limit 5 or first 5 results)
• With --backfill: fetch all releases (use --paginate)
• Filter: only process versions >= v2.1.86 (monitoring stopped after v2.1.85 / issue #683)

Phase 2: Check Existing Issues

Search for existing tracking issues to avoid duplicates:

gh issue list \
  --state all \
  --search "Claude Code v" \
  --json number,title \
  --limit 100

Build a set of already-tracked versions by extracting version strings from issue titles matching the pattern Claude Code v(\d+\.\d+\.\d+) (no brackets).

Phase 3: Dedup

For each fetched release version:

• Parse the version string from tag_name (e.g., v2.1.86)
• If an issue title matching Claude Code v{version} already exists → skip (already tracked)
• If no matching issue → add to "needs issue" list

Phase 4: Create Issues (or Dry-Run Report)

Dry-Run Mode (--dry-run)

Print a report of what would be created:

[Dry Run] Would create issues for:
  - v2.1.86 (published: 2026-01-15)
  - v2.1.87 (published: 2026-01-22)
  ...
No issues were created.

Live Mode

For each version in the "needs issue" list, create a GitHub issue:

gh issue create \
  --title "Claude Code v{version}" \
  --label "automated,claude-code-release" \
  --body "{body}"

Issue body format (matching the pattern established by issue #683):

# Claude Code v{version}

**Release:** v{version}
**Published:** {published_at}
**Link:** {html_url}

Notes:

• If body from the release is empty, use _릴리즈 노트가 제공되지 않았습니다._
• Truncate release body at 2000 characters and append ... (truncated) if needed
• The automated and claude-code-release labels must exist in the repository; create them if missing:

  gh label create "automated" --color "#0075ca" --description "Automated issue" 2>/dev/null || true
  gh label create "claude-code-release" --color "#e4e669" --description "Claude Code release tracking" 2>/dev/null || true
  

Phase 5: Report Results

After processing all versions:

[claude-native] Scan complete

Versions checked: {N}
New issues created: {M}

Created:
  - #1234 Claude Code v2.1.86
  - #1235 Claude Code v2.1.87

Already tracked (skipped):
  - v2.1.85 → #683

If no new releases found:

[claude-native] No new releases found. All versions >= v2.1.86 are already tracked.

Version Filtering Logic

MIN_VERSION = "2.1.86"

For each release:
  version = strip_v_prefix(tag_name)   # "v2.1.86" → "2.1.86"
  parts = split(version, ".")           # ["2", "1", "86"]
  if compare_semver(version, MIN_VERSION) >= 0:
    include
  else:
    skip

Semver comparison: major → minor → patch (all numeric). Pre-release suffixes (e.g., -beta) are included and compared lexicographically after numeric parts.

Note on non-contiguous patch numbers: Claude Code skips some patch numbers (e.g., v2.1.151 and v2.1.155 were never released publicly). The skill MUST act only on versions that actually appear in the GitHub releases API response — never assume contiguous numbering or attempt to fill gaps.

Error Handling

Error	Action
gh not authenticated	Report: "Error: gh CLI not authenticated. Run gh auth login first."
Rate limit hit	Report current status, list remaining versions
Label creation fails	Warn and continue (issue created without label)
Release body parse error	Use empty body fallback, continue

Integration Options

Manual

/claude-native
/claude-native --backfill
/claude-native --dry-run

Automatic (SessionStart Hook)

Can be integrated into the SessionStart hook to check for new releases at session start:

{
  "SessionStart": [
    {
      "command": "bash .claude/hooks/scripts/claude-native-check.sh"
    }
  ]
}

A lightweight wrapper script can run a --dry-run check and notify if new releases exist.

Scheduled (CronCreate)

Can be set up as a scheduled remote agent using /schedule:

/schedule "daily at 9am: /claude-native"

Or via CronCreate MCP tool for programmatic scheduling.

Prerequisites

• gh CLI installed and authenticated (gh auth status)
• Repository: baekenough/oh-my-customcode (default, detected from git remote)
• Labels automated and claude-code-release (auto-created if missing)

Background

• Last manually tracked release: v2.1.85 (issue #683)
• Monitoring gap: v2.1.86 onwards (customclaw deprecated 2026-03-18)
• This skill fills the monitoring gap and provides ongoing tracking
