What it does
Release Notes Generator is an agent skill from amplitude/builder-skills. Read completed tickets from Linear, Jira, or GitHub Issues, filter to user-visible changes, group by product area, and write polished user-facing release notes saved as a .docx to Google Drive. Use before each release or on a weekly cadence.
Its SKILL.md is about 680 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Development, covering Changelog and release notes and Word documents. It works with GitHub, Jira, Microsoft Word and Google Drive. The repository describes itself as: Open-source AI skills for product managers — battle-tested by PMs at Amplitude.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Changelog and release notes
- Tasks that involve Word documents
Example prompts
- “/release-notes-generator”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 51838c2. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Release Notes Generator loads about 684 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 66 tokens; SKILL.md has 139 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 139 words (~684 tokens).
“Turn a sprint's worth of closed tickets into polished, user-facing release notes — automatically.”
