modrelease: check, pack and ship game mods without leaking who you are

Config files and logs in a mod archive keep C:\Users\yourname\... paths, tools and their .pdb files keep the folder they were built in, screenshots keep the camera and the GPS position, and a zip made in Explorer keeps the time you touched every file. A Discord webhook or a GitHub token in a config is worse: anyone who downloads the mod can use it. modrelease finds all of that before you upload, then packs the release.

pipx install modrelease
modrelease check MyMod/
modrelease pack MyMod/ -o MyMod-1.0.zip
Command What it does
check Looks for personal data, secrets and risky files in a folder, files or a finished zip
pack The same check, then a reproducible zip and its .sha256
clean Screenshots and videos without EXIF, GPS, tags or encoder settings
diff Files added, removed and changed between two release zips
vt The VirusTotal result for a file, and which engines flag it
nexus Uploads the zip as a new version of a file on Nexus Mods
appeal Writes the email that gets a quarantined Nexus file reviewed

Settings can live in a modrelease.toml next to the mod, and there is a GitHub Action for releases on every tag. The full guide, a demo and the source are on GitHub.
