+# Bazel Central Registry (BCR) Publishing
+
+This directory contains template files for automated publishing to the [Bazel Central Registry (BCR)](https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel-central-registry).
+
+## Overview
+
+When a new release tag is created, the GitHub Actions workflow automatically:
+1. Generates a BCR entry using these templates
+2. Creates attestations for the generated files
+3. Opens a pull request against the Bazel Central Registry
+
+## Files
+
+- **metadata.template.json**: Contains repository metadata and maintainer information
+- **source.template.json**: Defines the source archive location and format
+- **presubmit.yml**: Specifies BCR CI tests to validate the module
+
+## Workflow
+
+The publish workflow is triggered by:
+- Release publication (automatic)
+- Manual workflow dispatch (for retries or re-publishing)
+
+See `.github/workflows/publish.yaml` and `.github/workflows/release.yml` for the workflow configuration.
+
+## Requirements
+
+The workflow requires a `BCR_PUBLISH_TOKEN` secret to be configured in the repository settings. This should be a GitHub Personal Access Token with:
+- `repo` scope
+- `workflow` scope
+
+The token should be created by someone with write access to a fork of the bazel-central-registry.
+
