What it does
SDK Changelog is an agent skill from bouffalolab/bouffalo_sdk. Use when generating a customer-facing CHANGELOG between two SDK release tags. Covers how to collect commits from the main repo, changed submodules, and embedded repos (non-submodule git repos like components/wireless/wl80211/src), and how to format the result for external audiences (no commit IDs, no Jira tickets, no internal paths).
Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k 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. It works with Git and Jira. The repository describes itself as: BouffaloSDK is the IOT and MCU software development kit provided by the Bouffalo Lab Team, supports all the series of Bouffalo chips. Also it is the combination of blmcusdk and…. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Generating a customer-facing CHANGELOG between two SDK release tags
- Tasks that involve Changelog and release notes
Example prompts
- “/sdk-changelog”
Workflow steps
5 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 8a3df34. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
git
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use git, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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
SDK Changelog loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 288 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.

- Use when generating a customer-facing CHANGELOG between two SDK release tags. Covers how to collect commits from the main repo, changed submodules, and embedded repos (non-submodule git repos like components/wireless/wl80211/src), and how to format the result for external audiences (no commit IDs, no Jira tickets, no internal paths).
SDK CHANGELOG Generator
Overview
Produce a clean, customer-facing CHANGELOG from a git tag range. The output is an overview for end users — no internal identifiers, no implementation noise.
Workflow
1. Collect main repo commits
git log --format="%H|%ad|%an|%s" --date=short <FROM_TAG>..HEADFilter out pure bookkeeping commits (chore: record submodules) — they carry no user-visible information.
2. Find changed submodules
# hashes at old tag
git ls-tree <FROM_TAG> --full-tree -r | grep "^160000" > /tmp/sub_old.txt
# hashes at HEAD
git ls-tree HEAD --full-tree -r | grep "^160000" > /tmp/sub_new.txtDiff the two files to find submodules whose commit pointer changed.
3. Collect submodule commits
For each changed submodule (if checked out locally):
git -C <submodule_path> log --format="%H|%ad|%an|%s" --date=short <OLD_HASH>..<NEW_HASH>4. Collect embedded repo commits
Some directories are standalone git repos but not tracked as git submodules (e.g., Google
repo-managed projects with symlinked .git worktrees). These won't appear in git ls-tree
and must be handled separately.
Known embedded repos in this SDK:
| Path | Description |
|---|---|
components/wireless/wl80211/src | wl80211 WiFi driver core source |
Since the parent repo doesn't record the embedded repo's commit, use the <FROM_TAG> date to
find the corresponding old commit:
FROM_DATE=$(git log -1 --format=%ad --date=iso-strict <FROM_TAG>)
# For each embedded repo:
EMB_REPO=components/wireless/wl80211/src
OLD_HASH=$(git -C "$EMB_REPO" log -1 --before="$FROM_DATE" --format=%H)
NEW_HASH=$(git -C "$EMB_REPO" rev-parse HEAD)
if [ -n "$OLD_HASH" ] && [ "$OLD_HASH" != "$NEW_HASH" ]; then
git -C "$EMB_REPO" log --format="%H|%ad|%an|%s" --date=short $OLD_HASH..$NEW_HASH
fi5. Merge and categorize
Combine all commits (main repo + submodules + embedded repos), deduplicate by subject, then group into:
| Category | Commit prefixes |
|---|---|
| New Features | feat:, feat(*): |
| Bug Fixes | fix:, fix(*): |
| Improvements | chore:, refactor:, perf/size wins |
| Documentation | docs: — omit unless relevant to users |
Output Template
## [VERSION or Unreleased] — since vX.Y.Z (DATE_FROM → DATE_TO)
### New Features
- **[Chip/Component]**
- One-line user-visible description
- ...
- **[Another area]**
- ...
### Bug Fixes
- **[Area]**
- Fixed [symptom] in [context]
- ...
### Improvements
- Reduced code size of ...
- Refactored ... for better maintainabilityRules for Customer-Facing Output
| Remove | Keep |
|---|---|
| Commit hashes | Chip/platform names (BL616, BL618DG…) |
| Jira / internal ticket IDs | Feature names and affected peripherals |
| Submodule/embedded repo paths | User-visible behavior changes |
| Author names | Security hardening (summarized) |
chore: record submodules entries | Size/performance improvements |
| Internal code symbols |
- Group by functional area, not by submodule or file
- Use plain language; avoid C macro names and file paths
- One bullet = one user-visible change (merge duplicates across submodules)
- Omit doc fixes unless they correct wrong behavior described in docs
Quick Example
Given commits like:
feat: add timeout interrupt for 616CL
fix(lp): fix miss lp restore keyram for sec 256 # also in macsw submodule
fix: harden DHCP packet bounds checks # in wlan/linux_driver submoduleOutput:
### New Features
- **BL616CL**: Added timeout interrupt support
### Bug Fixes
- **Low Power**: Fixed missing LP keyram restore for SEC 256 configuration
- **WiFi**: Hardened DHCP packet bounds checksNote: the LP fix appears in both main repo and macsw submodule — output it once.
