-## Cutting a release
-
-To cut a new release, follow the ["Special case: the resource API" instructions](https://confluence.puppetlabs.com/display/systemsEngineering/Puppet+Agent+Release+Lead+Guide) on confluence.
+### Cutting a release
+
+In some cases we need to manually cut a release outside of the regular puppet
+agent process.
+
+To do so, follow these instructions from a current `master` checkout:
+
+* Start the release branch with `git checkout -b release-prep`
+* Update `lib/puppet/resource_api/version.rb` to the new version
+* Update the CHANGELOG
+  * Have a [CHANGELOG_GITHUB_TOKEN](https://github.com/skywinder/github-changelog-generator#github-token) set in your environment
+  * run `rake changelog`
+  * double check the PRs to make sure they're all tagged correctly (using the new CHANGELOG for cross-checking)
+* Check README and other materials for up-to-date-ness
+* Commit changes with title "Release prep for v\<VERSION>"
+* Upload and PR the release-prep branch to the puppetlabs GitHub repo
+* Check that CI is green and merge the PR
+* Run `rake release[upstream]` to release from your checkout
+  * make sure to use the name of your git remote pointing to the puppetlabs GitHub repo
+* Remove the release-prep branch
+* Send the release announcements using the template in [misc/ANNOUNCEMENT_TEMPLATE.md](misc/ANNOUNCEMENT_TEMPLATE.md)
