# Release Guide
|
||
|
||
## Creating a Release
|
||
|
||
1. **Go to GitHub**: Navigate to https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/registry/releases
|
||
2. **Click "Draft a new release"**
|
||
3. **Choose a tag**: Click "Choose a tag" and type a new semantic version that follows the last one available (e.g., `v1.0.0`)
|
||
5. **Generate notes**: Click "Generate release notes" to auto-populate the name and description
|
||
6. **Publish**: Click "Publish release"
|
||
|
||
The release workflow will automatically:
|
||
- Build binaries for 6 platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows × amd64, arm64)
|
||
- Create and push Docker images with `:latest` and `:vX.Y.Z` tags
|
||
- Attach all artifacts to the GitHub release
|
||
- Generate checksums and signatures
|
||
|
||
## After Release
|
||
|
||
- Docker images will be available at:
|
||
- `ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/registry:latest` - Latest stable release
|
||
- `ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/registry:vX.Y.Z` - Specific release version
|
||
- Binaries can be downloaded from the GitHub release page
|
||
|
||
## Docker Image Tags
|
||
|
||
The registry publishes different Docker image tags for different use cases:
|
||
|
||
- **`:latest`** - Latest stable release (updated only on releases)
|
||
- **`:vX.Y.Z`** - Specific release versions (e.g., `:v1.0.0`)
|
||
- **`:main`** - Rolling tag updated on every push to main branch (continuous deployment)
|
||
- **`:main-YYYYMMDD-sha`** - Specific development builds from main branch
|
||
|
||
## Versioning
|
||
|
||
We use semantic versioning (SemVer):
|
||
- `v1.0.0` - Major release with breaking changes
|
||
- `v1.1.0` - Minor release with new features
|
||
- `v1.0.1` - Patch release with bug fixes |
