# NemoClaw Maintainer Evening

Close the day with one release candidate, one cumulative documentation change, and a clear handoff.
Tagging is optional. Report tag creation first, then let the tag skill finish post-tag follow-through.

See [PR-REVIEW-PRIORITIES.md](../nemoclaw-maintainer-day/PR-REVIEW-PRIORITIES.md) for the daily
cadence and the [release-train policy](../nemoclaw-maintainer-policies/references/release-train.md)
for release rules.

## 1. Select the Target Version

Use the maintainer's `vX.Y.Z` when supplied. Otherwise, read the current target and show its
merged and open work:

```bash
node --no-warnings \
  .agents/skills/nemoclaw-maintainer-day/scripts/version-target.ts
node --no-warnings \
  .agents/skills/nemoclaw-maintainer-day/scripts/version-progress.ts vX.Y.Z
```

Do not silently convert the answer into a patch, minor, or major bump. If nothing shipped, ask
whether to stop without a tag.

## 2. Finish One Cumulative Documentation Change

Start the [release kickoff checks](../nemoclaw-maintainer-cut-release-tag/references/candidate-evidence.md#start-independent-checks-at-kickoff)
for the intended range. Report independent prerequisites together, and continue authorized docs
preparation and review during image waits. These preliminary reads do not select the tag candidate.

Inspect the current `Docs / Author Post-Merge Catch-Up` state. The Pi workflow owns documentation catch-up
for merged changes. Continue its managed draft PR when one exists. If no managed PR exists and the
release entry is the only missing change, use one direct documentation-only PR.
