# bd ship

> Publish a capability for cross-project dependencies

Generated from `bd help --doc ship`.

Ship a capability to satisfy cross-project dependencies.

This command:

1. Finds issue with export:\<capability> label
2. Validates issue is closed (or --force to override)
3. Adds provides:\<capability> label

External projects can depend on this capability using:
bd dep add \<issue> external:\<project>:\<capability>

The capability is resolved when the external project has a closed issue
with the provides:\<capability> label.

Examples:
bd ship mol-run-assignee              # Ship the mol-run-assignee capability
bd ship mol-run-assignee --force      # Ship even if issue is not closed
bd ship mol-run-assignee --dry-run    # Preview without making changes

```
bd ship <capability> [flags]
```

**Flags:**

```
      --dry-run   Preview without making changes
      --force     Ship even if issue is not closed
```
