 # Create Hotfix Release
 
-This command guides you through creating a patch/hotfix release for ComfyUI Frontend with comprehensive safety checks and human confirmations at each step.
+This command creates patch/hotfix releases for ComfyUI Frontend by backporting fixes to stable core branches. It handles both automated backports (preferred) and manual cherry-picking (fallback).
+
+**Process Overview:**
+1. **Check automated backports first** (via labels)
+2. **Skip to version bump** if backports already merged
+3. **Manual cherry-picking** if automation failed
+4. **Create patch release** with version bump  
+5. **Publish GitHub release** (manually uncheck "latest")
+6. **Update ComfyUI requirements.txt** via PR

 ## Prerequisites
 
-Before starting, ensure:
-- You have push access to the repository
-- GitHub CLI (`gh`) is authenticated
-- You're on a clean working tree
-- You understand the commits/PRs you're cherry-picking

+- GitHub CLI (`gh`) authenticated

 ## Hotfix Release Process
 
-### Step 1: Identify Target Core Branch
+### Step 1: Try Automated Backports First
+
+**Check if automated backports were attempted:**
+
+1. **For each PR, check existing backport labels:**
+   ```bash
+   gh pr view #1234 --json labels | jq -r '.labels[].name'
+   ```
+
+2. **If no backport labels exist, add them now:**
+   ```bash
+   # Add backport labels (this triggers automated backports)
+   gh pr edit #1234 --add-label "needs-backport"
+   gh pr edit #1234 --add-label "1.24"  # Replace with target version
+   ```
+
+3. **Check for existing backport PRs:**
+   ```bash
+   # Check for backport PRs created by automation
+   PR_NUMBER=${ARGUMENTS%%,*}  # Extract first PR number from arguments
+   PR_NUMBER=${PR_NUMBER#\#}   # Remove # prefix
+   gh pr list --search "backport-${PR_NUMBER}-to" --json number,title,state,baseRefName
+   ```
+
+4. **Handle existing backport scenarios:**
+
+   **Scenario A: Automated backports already merged**
+   ```bash
+   # Check if backport PRs were merged to core branches
+   gh pr list --search "backport-${PR_NUMBER}-to" --state merged
+   ```
+   - If backport PRs are merged → Skip to Step 10 (Version Bump)
+   - **CONFIRMATION**: Automated backports completed, proceeding to version bump?
+
+   **Scenario B: Automated backport PRs exist but not merged**
+   ```bash
+   # Show open backport PRs that need merging
+   gh pr list --search "backport-${PR_NUMBER}-to" --state open
+   ```
+   - **ACTION REQUIRED**: Merge the existing backport PRs first
+   - Use: `gh pr merge [PR_NUMBER] --merge` for each backport PR
+   - After merging, return to this command and skip to Step 10 (Version Bump)
+   - **CONFIRMATION**: Have you merged all backport PRs? Ready to proceed to version bump?
+
+   **Scenario C: No automated backports or they failed**
+   - Continue to Step 2 for manual cherry-picking
+   - **CONFIRMATION**: Proceeding with manual cherry-picking because automation failed?

+
+**CRITICAL**: The release workflow creates a DRAFT release. You must manually publish it:
+
+1. **Go to GitHub Releases:** https://github.com/Comfy-Org/ComfyUI_frontend/releases
+2. **Find the DRAFT release** (e.g., "v1.23.5 Draft")
+3. **Click "Edit release"**

+
+### Step 14: Create ComfyUI Requirements.txt Update PR
+
+**IMPORTANT**: Create PR to update ComfyUI's requirements.txt via fork:
+

+   # Clone your fork (or use existing clone)
+   GITHUB_USER=$(gh api user --jq .login)
+   if [ ! -d "ComfyUI-fork" ]; then
+     gh repo clone ${GITHUB_USER}/ComfyUI ComfyUI-fork

+
+   cd ComfyUI-fork

+   git pull origin master
+
+   # Create update branch
+   BRANCH_NAME="update-frontend-${NEW_VERSION}"
+   git checkout -b ${BRANCH_NAME}

+

+   ```bash
+   # Update the version in requirements.txt
+   sed -i "s/comfyui-frontend-package==[0-9].*$/comfyui-frontend-package==${NEW_VERSION}/" requirements.txt

+   # Commit the change
+   git add requirements.txt
+   git commit -m "Bump frontend to ${NEW_VERSION}"

 ## Important Notes
 
+- **Always try automated backports first** - This command is for when automation fails
 - Core branch version will be behind main - this is expected
 - The "Release" label triggers the PyPI/npm publication
+- **CRITICAL**: Always uncheck "Set as latest release" for hotfix releases
+- **Must create ComfyUI requirements.txt PR** - Hotfix isn't complete without it
 - PR numbers must include the `#` prefix
 - Mixed commits/PRs are supported but review carefully
 - Always wait for full test suite before proceeding

+**Primary Backport Method:** Automated via `needs-backport` + `X.YY` labels
+**This Command Usage:**

+**Complete Hotfix:** Includes GitHub release publishing + ComfyUI requirements.txt integration
