When your agent uses it
- : release preparation
- Tasks that involve Changelog and release notes
Example prompts
- “/release-notes-generator”
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ac74615. 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 (its code samples are markdown).
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 299 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 46 tokens; SKILL.md has 66 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

Release Notes Generator
Procedure
1. Extract unreleased entries
Read CHANGELOG.md and extract everything under ## [Unreleased] up to the next ## [vX.Y.Z] header.
2. Format for GitHub Release
Structure the release notes:
## What's Changed
### ✨ New Features
<entries from ### Added>
### 🔧 Changes
<entries from ### Changed>
### 🐛 Bug Fixes
<entries from ### Fixed>
### ⚠️ Deprecated
<entries from ### Deprecated>
### 💥 Breaking Changes
<entries from ### Removed>
---
**Full Changelog**: <link to compare between last tag and new tag>Omit empty sections.
3. Generate CHANGELOG update
Prepare the CHANGELOG update — replace ## [Unreleased] content with a new versioned section:
## [Unreleased]
## [vX.Y.Z] - YYYY-MM-DD
### Added
<moved entries>
### Fixed
<moved entries>4. Output
Return:
- The formatted release notes (for GitHub Release body)
- The updated CHANGELOG.md content (for committing)
