The skill

Generate formatted changelogs from git history since the last release tag. Use when preparing release notes that categorize changes into breaking changes, features, fixes, and other sections.

Generate a changelog for all changes from the most recent release until now.

Steps

  1. Find the most recent release tag using git tag --sort=-creatordate
  2. Get commits and merged PRs since that tag
  3. Look at previous releases in this repo to match their format and style
  4. Categorize changes into sections: Breaking Changes, Added, Changed, Fixed, Notes
  5. Focus on user-facing changes (features, important bug fixes, breaking changes)
  6. Include PR links and contributor attribution

Output

Present the changelog in a markdown code block, ready to copy-paste into a GitHub release.
