A proposal to move also this one to CI, and be fully managed via Github actions, the set of privileges is the same of pushing tags, this is more practical and accessible for people not actively working on vscode (ie. first responder, a PM @GaurabAryal :))
The idea is to kickoff draft releases from https://github.com/mongodb-js/vscode/actions selecting the type of bump (patch, minor, major) from a dropdown or the exact new version.
The workflow has safe-guard checks for pre-existing tags and version format.
NOTE: To do this i've extracted the test and build steps in a composite action, which is called by test and set and create draft release.
