-* `macos-{monterey,ventura}-xcode:N` image is based on `macos-{monterey,ventura}-base` image and has `Xcode N` with [`Flutter`](https://flutter.dev/) pre-installed

-To build `macos-monterey-vanilla`:
+## Release Cadence
 
-```bash

+Once a new version of Xcode is released, we will initiate a GitHub release which will automatically build and push
+a new version of the `macos-{sequoia,sonoma}-xcode:N` image as well as `macos-runner:sonoma`. This generally happens within 24 hours
+of a release. Please watch this repository releases to get notified about new images.
 
-To build `macos-ventura-vanilla`:
+## Update Cadence
 
-```bash
-packer build templates/vanilla-ventura.pkr.hcl

+Some of the images are regularly getting rebuild in order to update the pre-installed packages. The following images are updated
+monthly on the first Saturday of the month:
