Versions:
RigSmith, published by RigSmith and currently available in version 1.18.0, is a consolidated developer toolchain that delivers four command-line utilities through a single installation. The package comprises rig, changerig, shiprig, and clauderig, and one install places all four commands on the user's PATH, eliminating the need to set up each tool individually. The rig component functions as a convention-first development launcher, providing a standardized way to start development work according to established conventions. The changerig component handles changesets, supporting the tracking and management of changes across a project. The shiprig component is dedicated to releases and publishing, covering the workflow required to ship and publish software. The clauderig component synchronizes Claude Code configuration, keeping settings consistent across environments. Together, these four utilities form a cohesive toolkit that spans the development lifecycle from local launch, through change management, to release and configuration synchronization. RigSmith fits within the developer tools category, and more specifically within the subcategories of command-line toolchains, development workflow automation, and release management utilities. Its bundled approach is suited to developers and teams who want a unified set of commands rather than installing and maintaining separate packages for launching development environments, managing changesets, publishing releases, and syncing Claude Code configuration. The software has been distributed across 20 versions, with version 1.18.0 representing the current release, reflecting an ongoing development history that has progressed through numerous iterations. Because all four commands are installed together, version 1.18.0 of the package provides the current state of the entire rigsmith toolchain in one step, making it straightforward to adopt the full set of utilities or to keep them updated as new versions of the package are released.
