v1.9.73-alpha.5

prerelease tracks now publish SKILL.md to wip.computer (closes the gap that left install.txt only refreshing on stable cuts)

v1.9.72

AI DevOps Toolbox v1.9.72

Promote v1.9.71-alpha series to stable

Closes #256.

Consolidates 21 alpha prereleases (v1.9.71-alpha.1 through v1.9.71-alpha.21) into a stable v1.9.72 release. No code changes beyond the version bump in the toolbox root package.json; the sub-tool code has been stable and dogfooded across the alpha iterations.

Why

The root package.json had been sitting at 1.9.71-alpha.21 without a stable promotion. That blocked deploy-public.sh from syncing the private repo to the public mirror ... the script gates public release on stable root versions.

Symptom during 2026-04-21: wip-branch-guard sub-tool shipped stable (v1.9.82 → v1.9.83 → v1.9.84) to npm successfully, but the public wipcomputer/wip-ai-devops-toolbox GitHub releases page did not show any of them because deploy-public.sh refused to run with an alpha root.

What's in the diff

• package.json
  • Version bump 1.9.71-alpha.21 → 1.9.72

Everything else flows from wip-release:

• CHANGELOG.md updated
• Git tag v1.9.72
• GitHub release on private repo
• npm publish to @latest
• deploy-public.sh runs, syncs private code (minus ai/) to wipcomputer/wip-ai-devops-toolbox
• Public GitHub release created

Sub-tool versions at this release

Sub-tool	npm version
@wipcomputer/wip-branch-guard	1.9.84
Other sub-tools	See their individual package.json

The sub-tool releases have their own cadence; this release is purely the toolbox root bump.
