Create and publish Novu changelog entries in Sanity (changelogPost documents), including feature posts, "improvements & fixes" roundups built from Linear releases, and the Changes (changeBlock)…

  • Works in 4 steps: Source material → Voice → Create → …
  • Asked to write a changelog entry
  • SKILL.md covers Target, Workflow and Editing existing drafts
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Sanity Changelog is an agent skill from novuhq/novu. Create and publish Novu changelog entries in Sanity (changelogPost documents), including feature posts, "improvements & fixes" roundups built from Linear releases, and the Changes (changeBlock) component. Use when asked to write a changelog entry, announce a shipped feature on the changelog, roll up improvements/bug fixes since the last release, or work with Sanity changelog content for the Novu website.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `reference.md`).

It sits in Development, covering Changelog and release notes and Debugging. The repository describes itself as: The open-source communication infrastructure for agents and products.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to write a changelog entry
  • Announce a shipped feature on the changelog
  • Roll up improvements/bug fixes since the last release
  • Work with Sanity changelog content for the Novu website

Example prompts

  • “improvements & fixes”
  • “/sanity-changelog”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Source material
  2. Voice
  3. Create
  4. Images (known limitation)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit c4d3eda. 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

Sanity Changelog loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 106 tokens; SKILL.md has 428 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~106
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k

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

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 428 words (~1,123 tokens).

“Authoring workflow for Novu changelog entries. Content lives in Sanity (changelogPost), reviewed from Linear releases. Uses the Sanity MCP (plugin-sanity-Sanity) and Linear MCP (plugin-linear-linear).”
