+# Release Script Execution Summary
+
+## Executed: `scripts/release`
+
+### Date
+2026-02-01
+
+### Action Taken
+The release script was successfully executed, which performed the following operations:
+
+1. **Fetched latest tags** from the remote repository
+2. **Identified latest version**: `v3.17.38`
+3. **Calculated new version**: `v3.17.39` (patch increment)
+4. **Created new tag locally**: `v3.17.39`
+
+### Tag Details
+- **Tag Name**: `v3.17.39`
+- **Commit**: `05ffdd7e447f3f1e6f7089645d5be9e1b1168374`
+- **Branch**: `copilot/run-release-script`
+
+### What Happens Next
+
+The tag `v3.17.39` has been created locally. When this tag is pushed to the remote repository, it will trigger the GitHub Actions workflow defined in `.github/workflows/release.yml`, which will:
+
+1. Build the Go binaries using GoReleaser
+2. Build platform Docker images
+3. Publish packages to NPM
+4. Create a GitHub release
+
+### How to Complete the Release
+
+To complete the release and trigger the automated release workflow, the tag needs to be pushed to GitHub:
+
+```bash
+git push origin v3.17.39
+```
+
+Alternatively, the tag will be pushed when this PR branch is merged and the release process is run again on the main branch.
+
+### Release Script Options
+
+The release script supports the following options:
+
+- **Default** (no flags): Increments the patch version (e.g., 3.17.38 → 3.17.39)
+- **`--minor` flag**: Increments the minor version and resets patch to 0 (e.g., 3.17.38 → 3.18.0)
+
+### Example Usage
+
+```bash
+# Create a patch release (3.17.39 → 3.17.40)
+./scripts/release
+
+# Create a minor release (3.17.39 → 3.18.0)
+./scripts/release --minor
+```
