-1. Check that notable PRs since the last release are labeled and have clear and consistent titles
-
-2. `git pull` the latest `main` and ensure that `git status` shows no local changes
-
-3. `export GITHUB_AUTH="..."` with a [GitHub access token](https://github.com/settings/tokens/new?scopes=repo&description=release-it) with "repo" access so [release-it](https://github.com/release-it/release-it) can conduct a GitHub release and [lerna-changelog](https://github.com/lerna/lerna-changelog) can download the change history
-
-4. `export EDITOR="vim"` to choose an editor for editing the changelog
-
-5. `yarn release` (uses [@release-it-plugins/lerna-changelog](https://github.com/release-it-plugins/lerna-changelog) to handle versioning, the changelog, publishing to GitHub and NPM, etc)
+[release-please](https://github.com/googleapis/release-please) will automatically open up PRs to conduct releases based on [conventional commits](https://www.conventionalcommits.org/en/v1.0.0/).
