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.
