+# changesets/action/github-release
+
+Finalizes packages produced by staged publishing. Pass the exact
+`staged-release-artifact-id` output from `changesets/action/publish`.
+
+By default the action waits up to two minutes for every approved package
+version to become visible before creating any Git tag or GitHub Release.
+Private registries therefore need read authentication configured before this
+step. Set `verify-published: false` to skip that check.
+
+The handoff is bound to the repository, workflow run, and commit. Tags and
+releases are created idempotently; a tag that already points at another commit
+is rejected.
