{
    "name": "publish-mod",
    "description": "Package and release a finished game mod. Covers the pre-release lint (no game files, decompiled code or leaked keys), README and install steps, credits and AI disclosure, versioning, where to upload (Nexus Mods, Steam Workshop, Thunderstore, mod.io, GitHub releases), and the post with a video. Use when the user wants to ship, share, upload, release or post a mod."
}

Publish a mod

1. Lint

um publish check ./MyMod --game "<game install folder>"

FAIL: files byte-identical to game files, leaked keys (fal/Anthropic/OpenAI/GitHub/AWS), .env files.
WARN: decompiler fingerprints in source (FUN_/DAT_/sub_ names, "Decompiled with" headers), large engine archives, absolute user paths, a missing README, fal assets without credit.

Fix every FAIL. Resolve each WARN deliberately. For example, AoE2 data mods do ship a modified .dat, which is the platform's norm.

2. Package the way the platform expects

Platform / loader	Package
tModLoader	Build → `.tmod`; publish from the in-game Mod Sources menu (Steam Workshop)
BepInEx / Thunderstore	zip with `manifest.json`, `icon.png` (256×256), `README.md`, `plugins/<Mod>.dll`; dependency strings like `BepInEx-BepInExPack-5.4.2100`
Nexus Mods	zip laid out as it installs (`Data/...` for Bethesda, `BepInEx/plugins/...`, `ue4ss/Mods/...`, `~mods/*.pak`)
AoE2 DE	the official mod site (ageofempires.com/mods) or the in-game uploader; data mods include `resources/_common/dat/...`
Steam Workshop	the game's own uploader or SDK tool
Minecraft	Modrinth / CurseForge jar with `fabric.mod.json` / `neoforge.mods.toml`
ROM hacks / GameMaker	patches only (BPS/IPS/xdelta), never the modified game file

A Nexus mod with options gets a FOMOD installer: see the FOMOD tutorial and STEP's FOMOD guide. Nexus Mods' own modding wiki covers the rest of their site's conventions.

3. README (in the zip and on the page)

What it adds: bullets, a GIF or the showcase video.
Requirements: game version, the loader and its version, dependencies.
Install, uninstall and troubleshooting (where the log is).
Compatibility: multiplayer? Known conflicts?
Credits:
- the loader and libraries;
- references you learned from;
- "Art/audio generated with fal (fal.ai) using " (fal_manifest.jsonl lists them);
- honest AI disclosure (which agent and model built it).
License for your code (MIT/Apache is common). Your assets' terms follow the models' licenses.

4. Version and changelog

Use semver in the manifest/build file, name the supported game version, and keep a changelog. When the game updates, re-run the in-game test scene before bumping.

5. The post

Lead with the video: the showcase-video skill; 20-45 s, gameplay within 2-3 s.
Post text: the hook, what it is, the "how" credit (which agent + fal built it), a link.
If the video uses anyone else's footage, credit them by handle and ask first.
Publishing is always the user's call. Draft it, show them, and let them press the button.
