Ensure you're on develop with latest changes. Stash any unsaved work with git stash -u if needed.
Run yarn changelog (use yarn changelog | pbcopy to copy output).
Decide on a version per semver. Check the top of CHANGELOG.md for the current version.
Create branch prepare-release/VERSION off develop.
Update CHANGELOG.md — add the new version entry with the changelog output. See the "Updating the Changelog" section in docs/publishing-a-release.md for formatting details. Do not remove existing entries.
Commit: meta(changelog): Update changelog for VERSION
Push the branch and remind the user to open a PR targeting master.
If you were on a different branch, checkout back and git stash pop if needed.

Follow docs/new-sdk-release-checklist.md. If anything doesn't match the checklist, remind the user.
