New create_package() scaffolds a tinyverse-flavored R package: DESCRIPTION with Authors@R (optional ORCID), NAMESPACE, .Rbuildignore, NEWS.md, tests/tinytest.R entry point, and an optional starter hello() function with matching tinytest test. Pure base R, no new Imports.
- Remove create_package() in favor of pkgKitten::kitten().
- Fix bump_version("dev"): increment a 4th digit starting at 1 instead
of using the .9000 convention.
- Rewrite test_use_version and test_use_github_action to use inline
minimal package scaffolds.

load_all() now returns the populated environment and takes an optional env arg so callers can supply their own target. It no longer calls attach(), so tinypkgr's source is free of search-path side effects and R CMD check --as-cran is clean (0/0/0 aside from the new-submission NOTE). Users who want the previous auto-attach behavior can do it themselves: attach(tinypkgr::load_all(), name = "tinypkgr:mypkg")

use_version()anduse_github_action()for tinypkgr 0.2.0, in prep for first CRAN submission. Originally also addedcreate_package(), but pkgKitten already does that well — dropped in favor of pointing users atpkgKitten::kitten().Commits
Reformat R/dev.R and R/release.R via rformat— pure cosmetic pass, separated for review.Add create_package() and bump to 0.2.0— superseded by commit 5; kept for history.Add use_version() to bump DESCRIPTION + NEWS.md—patch/minor/major/devbumps. UpdatesDESCRIPTIONand prepends a matchingNEWS.mdsection header so the two never drift apart.Add use_github_action() to write r-ci workflow— writes.github/workflows/ci.yamlfrom the canonicaleddelbuettel/github-actions/r-ci@mastertemplate (Ubuntu + macOS).Drop create_package() and switch dev versioning— removescreate_package()(defer to pkgKitten). Switchesbump_version("dev")from the.9000convention (a usethis idiom, not in base R) to incrementing a 4th digit starting at1:0.2.0→0.2.0.1→0.2.0.2. Tests rewritten to inline minimal scaffolds instead of depending oncreate_package().Why
use_version()anduse_github_action()aren't there for human ergonomics — they're guard rails for LLM-driven edits. Claude can get DESCRIPTION's DCF format wrong or half-remember the r-ci YAML; deterministic helpers prevent a class of automated mistakes.create_package()removed because pkgKitten exists, is mature, and is the canonical tinyverse-flavored scaffold. tinypkgr stays focused on the dev/release/use_* helpers that complement it..9000convention is a Wickham-ism, not anything in base R or R-recommended. Switched to a simple incrementing 4th digit.Test plan
tinytest::test_package("tinypkgr")— 32 tests acrosstest_dev,test_use_version,test_use_github_action, all passtinypkgr::check()— 0 errors, 0 warnings, 1 NOTE (the pre-existingattach()inload_all())
