What it does
Changelog Writer is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Turn a list of changes, commits, or PRs into clean release notes / a changelog entry. Use when asked to write release notes, a changelog, or a version announcement from raw changes. Produces a Keep-a-Changelog-style entry grouped by type (Added/Changed/Fixed/etc.), written for users — surfacing breaking changes and upgrade notes up top. To go straight from a raw git log use changelog-generator instead.
Its SKILL.md is about 790 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. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Asked to write release notes
- A version announcement from raw changes
Example prompts
- “/changelog-writer”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. 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
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
keepachangelog.com
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
Changelog Writer loads about 792 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 106 tokens; SKILL.md has 373 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.

- changelog-writer
- description
- Turn a list of changes, commits, or PRs into clean release notes / a changelog entry. Use when asked to write release notes, a changelog, or a version announcement from raw changes. Produces a Keep-a-Changelog-style entry grouped by type (Added/Changed/Fixed/etc.), written for users — surfacing breaking changes and upgrade notes up top. To go straight from a raw git log use changelog-generator instead.
Changelog Writer Skill
Raw commit logs are written for the author; a changelog is written for the user. This skill turns a pile of commits/PRs/changes into a clean release entry — grouped by type, in plain user-facing language, with breaking changes and upgrade steps surfaced first so nobody gets surprised.
Required Inputs
Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:
- The changes — commit messages, PR titles, or a bullet list of what changed.
- Version & date — the release number (or help pick per semver) and date.
- Audience — end users, API consumers, library developers (sets the voice).
- Conventions (optional) — Keep a Changelog, an existing style, links to issues/PRs.
Output Format
Follow Keep a Changelog conventions:
[version] — [date]
⚠️ Breaking changes (only if any) — each breaking change + the exact migration step to fix it. This goes first.
Added — new features/capabilities, in user terms. Changed — changes to existing behavior. Deprecated — soon-to-be-removed features (and what to use instead). Fixed — bug fixes (what was broken, from the user's view). Security — any security-relevant fixes.
(Omit empty sections.) Each line: user-facing outcome first, with an issue/PR reference if available — not the raw commit message.
Upgrade notes (if needed) — anything to do when upgrading beyond the breaking-changes steps.
Semver note — if the version was inferred, one line on why (breaking → major, feature → minor, fix → patch).

Quality Checks
- Entries are grouped by type (Added/Changed/Fixed/…) with empty sections omitted
- Breaking changes are surfaced first, each with a concrete migration step
- Lines are user-facing outcomes, not raw commit messages
- References (issues/PRs) are included where available
- The version respects semver (breaking→major, feature→minor, fix→patch)
Anti-Patterns
- Do not paste raw commit messages — translate to what the user gains or must do
- Do not bury breaking changes among the features — they go first, with migration steps
- Do not include internal-only noise (refactors, CI tweaks) the user doesn't care about
- Do not mix change types into one list — group them
- Do not misclassify the version bump — a breaking change is a major, not a patch
Based On
The Keep a Changelog standard and Semantic Versioning, written for the reader rather than the committer.
Example Trigger Phrases
- "Write release notes."
- "Turn these commits into a changelog entry."
- "Write the version announcement from these PRs."
- "Group these changes into Added, Changed and Fixed."
