* fix(release): remove --tag alpha flag from release:alpha script The release:alpha script passed --tag alpha to changeset publish, but this conflicts with changesets prerelease mode (pre.json has tag alpha already set). This was previously fixed in PR #53 but regressed in commit 816a882. In prerelease mode, changeset publish uses the tag defined in pre.json automatically. Passing --tag explicitly causes: error: Releasing under custom tag is not allowed in pre mode * docs: update release:alpha command in Release-Readiness.md Remove instruction that release:alpha must pass --tag alpha to changeset publish. While in prerelease mode, the tag is controlled by .changeset/pre.json and changeset rejects explicit --tag.
