## Recommended Next Sprint: C-13

**Title:** PyPI Live Publish + Automated CI/CD

**Objectives:**
1. Add `.github/workflows/publish.yml` triggered on `v*` tags
2. Configure PyPI Trusted Publisher (OIDC) on pypi.org
3. Tag `v1.0.0`, trigger publish, verify `pip install skills-tree` from PyPI
4. Submit to Smithery, MCP.so, Awesome MCP Servers
5. Add `pytest` CI workflow on every PR

**Success criteria:** `pip install skills-tree` works from PyPI on a clean machine.
