# Contributor's Guide
## Triggering a New Release for Circom Circuits
To trigger a release build:
1. Create and push a tag in the format `circom-circuits_vX.Y.Z`.
2. This will automatically trigger the `.github/workflows/build_circuits.yml` workflow.
3. Once the workflow finishes, the generated artifacts will be attached to a new release.
> Currently, releases published this way are marked as **Draft** and **Pre-Release** to ensure that the changelog and pre-release steps are manually reviewed first.
### Example
```bash
git tag circom_circuits-v1.2.3 -m "Release for Circom Circuits v1.2.3"
git push --tags
```
## Publishing the Release
After triggering the release, it will appear as a **Draft** and **Pre-Release**.
Before making it public, make sure to:
1. **Review the changelog**
Ensure that all relevant changes are clearly listed and properly formatted.
2. **Confirm the pre-release checklist**
Verify that all required steps have been completed, then remove the checklist from the release notes.
Once everything looks good:
3. **Mark the release as published**
- Uncheck **“This is a pre-release.”**
- Publish the release (removing the Draft state).
> ⚡ **Important:** Nomos builds will only pick up the new circuits once the release is published as **Latest** (i.e. not marked as draft or pre-release).
