 ## Installation

+The Scorecards Action is installed by setting up a workflow on the GitHub UI.
 
-1) Create a Personal Access Token (PAT) for authentication and save the token value as a repository secret; 
-
-    (Note: If you have already installed Scorecards on your repository from the command line, you can reuse your existing PAT for the repository secret. If you no longer have access to the PAT, though, simply create a new one.)

+**Private repositories**: Scorecards requires authentication using a Personal Access Token (PAT). So if you install Scorecards on a private repository, you will need to follow the optional Authentication step. If you don't, Scorecards will fail to run.

+**Public repositories**: One Scorecards check ([Branch-Protection](https://github.com/ossf/scorecard/blob/main/docs/checks.md#branch-protection)) requires authentication using a Personal Access Token (PAT). If you want all Scorecards checks to run on a public repository, you will need to follow the optional Authentication step. If you don't, all checks will run except Branch-Protection.
 
-### Authentication
+**Optional Authentication**: Create a Personal Access Token (PAT) for authentication and save the token value as a repository secret. (Note: If you have already installed Scorecards on your repository from the command line, you can reuse your existing PAT for the repository secret. If you no longer have access to the PAT, though, simply create a new one.)

+### Authentication with PAT
 1. [Create a Personal Access Token](https://github.com/settings/tokens/new?scopes=public_repo,read:org,read:repo_hook,read:discussion) with the following read permissions:
     - Note: `Read-only token for OSSF Scorecard Action - myorg/myrepo` (Note: replace `myorg/myrepo` with the names of your organization and repository so you can keep track of your tokens.)
     - Expiration: `No expiration`
     - Scopes: 
-        * `repo > public_repo`
-        * `admin:org > read:org`
-        * `admin:repo_hook > read:repo_hook`
-        * `write:discussion > read:discussion`
+        * `repo > public_repo`                  Required to read [Branch-Protection](https://github.com/ossf/scorecard/blob/main/docs/checks.md#branch-protection) settings. **Note**: for private repositories, you need scope `repo`.

+If the run has failed, the most likely reason is an authentication failure. If you are running Scorecards on a private repository, confirm that the Personal Access Token is saved as an encrypted secret within the same repository (see [Authentication](#authentication)).

+
+## Preparing the release
+
+This section covers changes that need to be issued as a pull request and should
+be merged before releasing the scorecard GitHub Action.
+
+### Update the scorecard version
+
+_NOTE: As the scorecard GitHub Action is based on scorecard, you may want to publish a new release of scorecard to ensure the next release of the GitHub Action has the most up-to-date functionality. This is not strictly required. The only requirement is that we use a stable scorecard version which is at or above the current version used for this action._
+
+For the rest of document, let `CH1` be the hash of the scorecard image you
+intend to use for this release.
+
+See [here](https://github.com/orgs/ossf/packages?repo_name=scorecard) for
+scorecard images.
+
+(We'll use `0bc9576b3efbda7b38febbf0a1e1b9546894f9650aaead9ccb5edc7dade86552`
+as `CH1` in any examples below.)
+
+Now that you have `CH1`, update the digest in the [Dockerfile](Dockerfile) to use `CH1`.
+
+Example:
+
+```Dockerfile
+FROM gcr.io/openssf/scorecard:v100.0.0@sha256:0bc9576b3efbda7b38febbf0a1e1b9546894f9650aaead9ccb5edc7dade86552 as base
+```
+
+Create a pull request with this change.
+
+Once the PR is merged, note the GitHub commit hash.
+We'll refer to this as `GH2` below.
+
+## Drafting release notes
+
+<!-- TODO(release): Provide details -->
+
+## Release
+
+### Create a tag
+
+Locally, create a signed tag based on `GH2`:
+
+```console
+git remote update
+git checkout `GH2`
+git tag -s -m "v100.0.0" v100.0.0
+git push <upstream> --tags
+```
+
+### Create a GitHub release
+
+Create a
+[GitHub release](https://github.com/ossf/scorecard-action/releases/new) using
+the tag you've just created.
+
+Release title: `<tag>`
+
+The release notes will be the notes you drafted in the previous step.
+
+Ensure the following fields are up to date:
+
+- Security contact email
+- Primary Category
+- Another Category — optional
+
+Click `Publish release`.
+
+## Update the starter workflow
+
+1. Open a pull request in the
+[starter workflows repo](https://github.com/actions/starter-workflows/tree/main/code-scanning/scorecards.yml)
+to update the action's digest to `GH2`.
+
+1. Update our documentation's example workflow to use `GH2`.
+
+1. Verify on
+   [GitHub Marketplace](https://github.com/marketplace/actions/ossf-scorecard-action)
+   that the workflow example contains `GH2`.
+
+   _NOTE: GitHub Marketplace uses the default branch as reference documentation_
