What the skill teaches
playwright-release is a maintainer skill in the Playwright for Python repository that prepares a new Python release. It has the agent confirm that no bug or regression issues remain open, check that the bundled driver matches the upstream release branch, add Python-specific changes to the release notes kept in the main Playwright repository, open the release pull request, cut the release branch only when told to, and save a draft GitHub release. It states that the agent must never publish the release. It applies only to maintainers of microsoft/playwright-python and includes no scripts.
